Networks Post pictures of your network

Bah, too bad I can't post pics of our datacentre at work

theres around 30 fully loaded Cisco 6509s, a bunch of Cisco 7600s taking care of routing, an 8900 handling WAN, a whole bunch of Brocade SilkWorms for the SAN, a few big-ass Aspect voice switches for the call centres.

Floor is raised about 2ft in the machine rooms to allow for data cabling & aircon ducting, power from overhead.

fun stuff!

 

Why can't you post pics? Just rules?
I'd love to see it, stuff like that really interests me.

Acer Aspire laptop (also 802.11g via 3com)

Toshiba laptop (using 802.11g via 3com)

I'll have to get a visio done of the network at work. There are three win2k3 servers (1 x file/print/exchange, 1 x proxy/isa, 1 x terminal services) with cisco hubs, patch panels, a kvm and a tape backup library.

 

Internet->Tubes->PC

 

Probably, though I've never properly checked into it. We used to give tours to visitors and all but that stopped around a year ago - Auditors. I'll see what I can do with the pics

 

There's a 20+ metre extension cable between the socket and the router and I still get 8Mbps

Sorry about the carpet, we moved in ~6 months ago and haven't touched the 2nd bedroom/office yet.

 

The complicated ones interest me.
Ones like mine just make me lol.

Do you have a clear LOS? if you do use a laser although the local counsil might complain.
Heres mine

 

TBH

(God my flat's hideous up close)

 

not terribly exciting. I'm working on getting a pfsense box and using the cisco as a dumb dsl modem

 

That looks interesting, might have to give it a try

 

You didn't get that router from oclocker did you?

 

Yeah, 'tis working nicely. Why, did you sell it to him?

 

Yep, i couldnt get the DynDNS to work but otherwise it was a fine router.

 

Static IP

 

Lots of lovely blinking lights.

From the top:

This my main office/studio.



Left to right we have..

PowerMac G4 Cube. This is a headless file server, web server, print server, torrent box, etc.

Next to it is a D-Link 802.11g router.

On the floor you will see a single Firewire drive enclosure (with the blue LED) - containing a 120GB drive for backups.

Next to that is a Motorola Surfboard cable modem.

The box which looks like a Shuttle PC is a FireWire 4-bay drive enclosure containing 4x200GB drives. This is the main media storage for my network.

Both those FireWire enclosures are connected to the Cube which shares the files via AFP to other machines on the network.

The main computer on the right-hand end of the desk is a 20" iMac G5.

Other network clients:

My brother's Mac Mini in the next room - connected with an Ethernet cable running through a hole in the wall.

My dad's Windows XP PC which is connected with a USB WiFi dongle to avoid running cables across the landing.

My MacBook which is for general dossing about the house and also for connecting up to my TV for watching movies.
