RoboForm

So it works with a simple fix (Nightly builds) but the guys from RoboForm can be trouble to make a very simple update!

partitioning system DNs and route patterns…

Posted in Cisco on February 9th, 2010 by Saba – Be the first to comment

The simpler the better… but what other than organization are you trying to accomplish? Do you need to restrict who can call whom? Do you have overlapping DNs?

I’ve always been partial to putting all DNs in one flat partition and restricting internal/local/LD/Intl calling with the overlapping line and device CSS’s… and if you are running CM7.x I love love love the new local gateway feature – greatly reduces the number of CCSs if you have multiple buildings/offices/locations with multiple PSTN connections.

Thanks,

Agreed. That’s why it’s something I’d like to migrate to. I’m hoping others who have tried something similar can say either “works for me” or present any gotchas.

CCIE R&S Lab Exam at Pearson ?

Not this guy, perhaps others but after seeing first hand the cheating and selling of exams, exams being taken but people other than the person receiving the cert etc via Pearson that was reported to both them AND Cisco with nothing ever being done I am convinced this will lead to more fraud.

NSXML and >

Posted in Apple on February 9th, 2010 by Saba – 1 Comment

Hello,

I’m using the NSXML classes to write out various strings, and it seems that these classes convert “” to “>”, which I find odd. For instance, consider the following code snippet:

NSXMLElement*element = [[[NSXMLElementalloc] initWithName:@”Test”stringValue:@”"] autorelease]; NSLog (@”%@”, element);

The output is:

< & >

Is this correct, or is this a bug? Or am I missing something? Do I therefore need to replace all occurrences of “>” with “>” myself to generate better XML?

Many thanks and all the best, Keith

CCIE R&S Lab Exam at Pearson ?

It’s one step closer to assembly line mass production. At that point, simple economics devalues it. The CCIE is valuable because of it’s reputation of expertise, and because it is rare. If he former or latter go away, then what?

Possibly no proctor? Lame. Less security as it’s run by a third party company? (we all know what this means) Lame. Cisco, the company? Mega gay lame. Oh well, we should all know that putting our eggs in the same basket isn’t the smartest idea. Time to diversity!

UC520

Thanks guys. I work for an ITSP and we are trying to get one for our lab. We already have several ISR and IAD devices, we just need a UC520 for helping vendors troubleshoot.

Our finance department knows how to make thing a real pain, so switching to a “non-preferred” reseller for the purchase isn’t going to work in this case. Thanks for the offer though.

You guys are all so funny! How does this devalue the cert? You are still taking the same exam and need to know the same material. What is the difference between this and the mobile lab? Sounds as if alot of people are looking for any excuse not to study and take the easy why out by saying the CCIE is worthless now I quit…

I would go with keep it as simple as possible. Otherwise, it will look good now, but in two years it’ll be so messed from all the mistakes that the organization won’t matter.

It’s not now, but I wanted to be more descriptive.

Plus, the 1024 character limit is not the only reason, simplifying is also another reason. Right now, we have to think about which partition a system DN belongs to, and even then, mistakes are made because of how the partitions are listed.
