Well..if you were wondering if changing the IP address of Cisco FMC still works of when I originally posted six years ago...It does! I was running FMC 7.4.2.2 at the time and following my own advice works pretty well. It's also funny that although working working with a different company, we had the same goal -- Migrating data centers!
When I first had an idea for this site I wanted something that would stay pretty consistent. However humans although may not like the idea of change, often change things frequently. If you read through some of the past posts you'll find that although this site was a spur-of-the-moment idea I wanted to really make sure its something I'll enjoy making content on. As well as an is easy way to find information you may be looking for. Although some people might enjoy my blog posts I also wanted to make sure the CCIE section is a good documentation resource. So with a couple of nobs turned, buttons pressed and switches thrown this site is now using Material for MkDocs
Something kind of interesting I stumbled on was moving some virtual machines around to a different ESXi host that doesn't have to same storage backend. So they were copied over manually and then imported within VMware vCenter. The machines were running Red Hat and although they were connecting to the same network the operating system was using a different interface name like ens33 instead of ens192.
Alright this is just an update that VLAN Technologies section within the CCIE section is completed. I have been working on this for the past of week and have also updated the layout of the CCIE page by putting the current version that is out as of this writing.
So I've been learning about administrative distance and updated my first CCIE topic Administrative Distance. One thing I learn about was this phrase called "Ships in the Night". So when I first saw this I paused, because it reminded me of a song from Mat Kearney.
Microsoft DNS servers have a pretty cool feature called DNS zone scopes which was introduced back with Server 2016 and higher. I knew about this feature a while ago as I had to make it work with a project and it worked wonderful back in 2018. Recently it came up again on a different project that I'm working and although a different use case it also worked like it should. So here's to zone scopes!
So we are kicking the tires a bit and going right into a lab that I've got on my Cisco_CML repository. When I was looking through the CCIE exam topics this lab that I did about ~3 weeks ago does not really fit into the CCIE docs, but I think its a good way to kick the tires. If you got Cisco Modeling Labs for the first time this is a good lab to try it out.
If you are seeing this over the world-wide-web then we got a website site online! I'll let you explore the content so I don't have to repeat myself but thanks for visiting and welcome!
