Hi all,
Just few notes this month;
I provided Fluke Networks my two cents about troubleshooting, etc…
Here is the except from Fluke’s last emailer;
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Has your network management approach kept up with your network? On average,
the network causes 15% of all problems resulting in downtime at $1
billion-plus companies,
according to a survey by Forrester Research. However, only 2% are caused by
actual networking
hardware failures. The other 13% are due to different issues like human
error, unmanaged changes,
mis-configurations, routing failures, and problems with networking
software.
