I almost forgot to post this (actually, I did forget to post them last night, and almost forgot again tonight). I got the pictures from my rack up. The first two are "before" the cleanup, and the last two are "after" rack I cleaned it up. http://jason.artoo.net/2001-04-19/rack.html Can you believe that on the middle shelf between the white upright speakers and under the rats-nest of cables is a 2610, 16 port hub, and 827 (with my Nextel charger on top)? Yeah, so I decided to clean up a bit. The second pair of pictures show (from the bottom up) two Catalyst 3524 Inline Power switches, 10mbit 16 port hub (left), 827 ADSL router (right), wire management (nicely hiding all the patch cables), 2610 router with two WIC-T1-DI modules, rack-mount 16 port Linksys 10mbit hub, three 6 plug surge protectors, (on the back-left post is a 10-port power strip that came with the rack). Ok, moving to the top of the rack (I know, it's still a bit messy up there, but it leaves me more room in my rack, and that gear doesn't change, whereas the rack gear changes as it's due to be installed at different customer sites). On the top of the rack from the right to left: 486 DX4/100 RH Linux server (with 10mbit Intel NetPort Express connected to two printers), two Linksys 10/100 5 port switches ($25 each after $20 rebates), 1605-R router connected to an ADSL Westell bridge on top (usual internet/firewall access when I don't have the 827), Aironet 350 Access Point on top (Aironet 350 PCMCIA in the laptop works two houses down and covers the entire yard). Ok, behind that, starting from the bottom up is a 4500 with two 100mbit ports and two 10mbit ports, two 2502s, 2501, and IBM Token Ring concentrator (?) on top. Hmm, oh, and to the left of the rack you can see a Cisco 7960 IP Phone. Oh, and down at the bottom is my son Noah's computer (ex-server case that's huge, and has only a baby-AT sized motherboard inside). Noah would be my adorable 3-year and usual excuse for why I haven't been studying. Older pictures from a low-res webcam from when I first got the rack (free, thanks Justin!) with a Compaq 3000 VAC UPS that runs for days with all this gear on it: http://jason.artoo.net/rack/ Ok, I'm spoiled, I know. I'm trying to convince my boss to add a remote power boot/switch and 2511 terminal server to the lab. If you can handle some more pics, you can see some other stuff I'm proud off (family, firepit, and compost bins): http://jason.artoo.net/2001-04-19/ I gotta go add comments (cut'n'paste from this post will make it easy). Man, I don't want to install FrontPage again... will I succumb to the evil that is Micro$oft? -- Jason Roysdon, CCNP+Security/CCDP, MCSE, CNA, Network+, A+ List email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://jason.artoo.net/ Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=1470&t=1470 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
