Hello All, I would appreciate if you could share your experiences of settting up out-of-band management networks especially large # 50 - 100+ sites. Appreciate your experiences on the follwing and any other: - out-of-band network circuit going thru the same transport equipment as the managed network - topology (i.e Frame,ATM,leased circuits etc) - redundancy in out-of-band network for criticial monitoring ( Dual hub-spoke for redundancy etc, dial-on-demand with POTS, ISDN, wireless etc) - hierarchy with regional aggregation for out-of-band networks to reduce costs - SLAs for out-of-band monitoring -static routes versus dynamic protcols (RIP,OSPF, EIGRP) Michael Chang __________________________________________________ FREE voicemail, email, and fax...all in one place.
