Hi there,
---- The Technology Firm Mailer ----
Reading week.
In this email I thought I would share some pretty good articles I’ve read
lately.
The Globe jotted down some of my ramblings and put it in the Globe and Mail in
the article “Network nightmares and how to avoid them”.

Nortel vs. Cisco vs. ProCurve, a Competitive Performance Evaluation The Tolly
Group did a Competitive Performance Evaluation, between Nortel Ethernet Routing
Switches (2526T & 2550T) and Cisco Catalyst 2960-24T & 48T.

Performance”

and
Crash Course: WLAN Spectrum Analysis

On my site I put together a 10 step process to get MRTG up and running and I
updated my iperf notes http://thetechfirm.com/networking/networking.htm
I used the Fluke Networks Etherscope to see how well my DLink AP measures up as
far as latency, throughput and loss goes

I also had the pleasure of teaching Wiresharks’ first classes in Virginia and
had a blast. If anyone wants to host or attend a class, you should contact
the folks at WiresharkU.
