Almost at the end of the month, for those keeping score:
New FreePBX system (Twilio SIP, Voip.MS virtual fax, Vultr instance): $130.58
Typical month of Windstream with T1/PRI: $750And not once did you hire me.. I am so done with you.
That wouldn't have passed the laugh test, and we'd be on Altigen forever.
I am secretly an Altigen system supporter and you have ruined me. You pesky kids.
During the very early stages of the project (a year ago when the CPU fan on our server broke and On High realized that yes, maybe it's time to look for something better), we looked into whatever new Altigen offerings there were. To have bought something directly from them (including subscribing to their hosted offering) would've meant we would've had to pay for me to be Altigen-trained in order to be eligible to receive support from them.

I vaguely recall conversations on the subject.

Just had to explain to folks that a problem with software on a user's personal computer on their home network is beyond the scope of our support.

Attending O'Reilly Online live training "Linux Account Management". Forging the sword.

You could always tell them you'll do an in-home diags/repair for $150/hr

And paid meal if it's between 5-9pm

Another gem for today. LogMeIn Rescue chat session (yes, it's on my list to replace with ScreenConnect or something of the like).
[Me]: Please drag the snipping tool to the other monitor
[User]: i just closed it instead...or do you need it?
[Me]: I need the snipping tool open and on the monitor that has this chat box. -

Reading this:

@eddiejennings Also, that guide is overly confusing IMO.
Just use the GUI to make the VPN connection, then look at the config afterwards.
There is nothing in that setup that cannot be done in the VPN GUI section.
-
Yeah. That's probably what I'm going to do. That ASA will be replaced eventually. It might be worth just scheduling downtime, replacing both, and configuring anew. Ending configuration = site-to-site VPN between our office and data center network and remote access VPN to our office, which allows traffic to then cross the site-to-site VPN (since two of my bosses need to RDP into data center servers from their home).
Might make another thread about this, since I'm sure there will be a conversation about how not-good the above is.

@eddiejennings I should get off my ass and post guides on how to setup various VPN configurations in the EdgeMax line.
I have used every option that is native to the units.

In your copious amounts of free time :P.
I do remember there being screwiness with Identity NAT for passing traffic from a remote access VPN and Site-to-Site VPN with ASAs.

Only thing I know about the Cisco side anymore is how to unlplug them.
I seriously have not done anything else with a Cisco router since 2009.

Why so humane? I'd rather dump water on it and watch it scream.

The main "screwiness" is having to pay a retarded amount per year to make the overpriced, underpowered device work. Fuck Cisco in their overpriced asses.

That's what you get for paying a marketing company to handle IT tasks.

Ha! The config we have was inherited, and since it works, I really haven't touched it other than setting up RADIUS authentication. With the ERLs coming in, I'm hoping the resultant config will be something sane.
