Loving Packet Tracer, so easy. Learning heaps. Cisco confidence going through the roof now.
What would you guys consider essential things to know how to do with regards to configuring switches?
Thanks guys.

5:30-6:00 pm and he manually restarts everything and then everything works fine.
Right now I

So for us following along at home, what was the actual problem and what was the fix? It looks like you were saying that the MSE updates were running at 5:30 or whenever, but was it actually trying to run a scan at that time? Was that the actual cause of the slowdowns?

The problem was that MSE was installing updates daily at 5-5:30 causing the Point of Sale that runs off of that PC to freeze and lock up until they were restarted.
The fix?
I excluded our application directory from MSE updates and havent had a problem in 3 days.
I have checked and the updates are still coming in , but no system lock ups.

I don't see the correlation. How is excluding a directory from updates even a thing? I can see excluding a directory from a scan, but MSE doesn't get updates based on directories.

This is what I know : okay? Stay with me here;

My terminals on the front of house were locking up every time a Security Update came through on my Back office PC. Causing the Site to have to restart the terminals manually every time at the same time, Daily.

After excluding the Directory for my application, I haven't had an issue in 3 days, and counting at multiple of my Windows 7 Sites.

Could it be that the updates were spinning up more RAM to install these updates?

Could it be that The System was False Positive hitting as @Dashrender suggested?

I wonder if it wasn't also running a scan at the same time using the newly installed updates? That is the only thing that makes sense. I wont argue with the results, I was just not satisfied with the explanation, because I couldn't follow the logic.

I tend to agree that a scan must be happening - otherwise updates alone shouldn't affect the operation of the PC.

If I get rid of the attempt to combine the 2 existing variables into a 3rd, I get this error.

New-ADUser : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument '+'.

Like this I think:

New-ADUser -Name "$($GivenName) $($Surname)"`

lol I looked for that, but forgot to click advanced.

Still doesn't solve the problem using using a horrible password (length along is horrible to some) each time you want to log into your box.

Sure, but neither does a VPN. You can control the passwords in either case, or you can let the end user use horrible passwords in either case. The VPN doesn't change the basic issue.

Sure. and now we're just running in circles.

I did start by saying you are correct.

🙂

At the end, VPNs just don't solve those problems. A VPN's benefit is only in having a second mechanism, if it is kept completely decoupled from the original. But it's a poor approach when it is used to cover up a lack of security applied to the core protocol.

@stacksofplates Thank you very much It works.

No problem!

@scottalanmiller
I got to say this: I din't find a public price below 150 USD + TAX, you are right.

I would prefer the phones to go out to 0.us.pool.ntp.org and 1.us.pool.ntp.org for all of their time sync issues but they appear to be having some issue.

Of which I am unable to determine what that could be with the error provided.

Got it. I was using the account id with an application key.

A more careful reading of the above linked page shows that:

0_1542076748186_e6061550-5167-4def-b9b5-5b89e859f408-image.png

So that was the disconnect.

Application Key requires Application ID. Account ID requires Master Application Key.

When the examples clearly stated ACCOUNT_ID and APPLICATION_KEY

New topic is posted.

@jkjokeryt Nope.

I agree that moving to a new system right away seems like the best course of action given that the phones are not actually down, but just cannot continue to be configured.

@DustinB3403 if you have them filtered down and want to cut/paste to another tab, you can select "visible cells only" by going to Edit / Go To... / Special... and select "visible cells only" to cut/paste just those rows visible in your selection.

Think i've got this down to 3 possible switch that meet the requirments:-
(rough pricing 🙂 )

2x Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch 48 Port - £920ea
1 pack of 10G Transceivers - £35
2x RJ45 10G Transceivers - £62ea
Total - £2000

2x HP 1950-48G - £1230ea
2x 10G-SR Transceivers - £600ea
*Don't need any Transceivers for the one in same building as it as 10G copper already
Total - £3660

2x Netgear S3300 - £1020ea
2x 10G-SR Transceivers - £238ea
Again already has 10G Copper.
Total - £2516

I see we can get "compatible" Transceivers to reduce costs to:-
HP £16ea - £2492
Netgear £13ea - £2066

@scottalanmiller It's not. I changed after I posted this.

@scottalanmiller said in Yealink VoIP Phone Powered by Ubiquiti ER-X PoE:

Anyone tried this combination? Does the power output on the one PoE port of the UBNT ER-X properly power the PoE input on a Yealink phone? We are specifically looking at the T42S.

The ERX should work if the power injector that you’re passing through is one design for the phone and not the fixed voltage unifi

The ER-X models have warnings in the manual that you need a different power source than the included wall wart if you're going to provide PoE to a device. At that point, just use passthrough from a compatible phone adapter.

@JaredBusch already nailed it.
