Given the amount of discussion on botnets and zombies, I thought this article was rather interesting: "A man has been arrested on suspicion of launching attacks over the internet after an operation between Scottish police and the US Secret Service." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/4175801.stm - ferg -- "Fergie", a.k.a.

RE: Cisco 2611XM as cheap border router

Of course, this would have to be periodically updated. By this, I mean a separate overlay document for their entire router product line. This would be very helpful to operators and integrators who get asked about minimum configurations fairly frequently... (I'm only picking on Cisco because they are 1) big and 2) have routers that support BGP but don't have enough memory for full tables) - Dan On 1/11/05 12:21 PM, "Rodney Dunn" <rodunn(a)cisco.com> wrote: > > This will not work for full routes. > The memory upgrade is utilized for larger > IOS images with new features. > > An update to the product bulletin is > in the works to clarify it. > > Further specific questions in regards to > the memory can be moved over to the > cisco-nsp alias. > > Rodney > > On Tue, Jan 11, 2005 at 07:39:49AM +0200, Mark Bojara wrote: >> Hello people of nanog :) >> >> Ive been doing some reading up and I see that that 2600 series is now >> supporting 256MB of memory.

I know how to cut those cables from experience. A customer isn't showing up with a battery powered Makita to do it. And they don't know where to cut to do max damage.
