Re: Mac compatible SFP+/XFP programmer
I can attest to the quality of the Flexbox. It is fantastic! All of our employees have Mac's and they work great. Originally you had to use Java in FireFox to make it work, but they now have a Chrome app that works in Chrome which is even easier (don't have to get the right Java version loaded and click through a million security warnings). The workflow for how the box works is fantastic- You just go to their website and plug in the box and the UI is fully web based. The benefit here is that they are constantly updating different programming profiles for different manufacturer quirks. As soon as they make a change, it is available to you from the UI. If you run into any issues with optic compatibility, they can whip up a new profile and have it available immediately (not that I have actually had any issues, but I did have them add some XFP MRV profiles for me). It will also show you the history of any optic you have programmed which is nice I guess. The down side is naturally that I think it only works with their branded optics and also they are in control (i.e. if they decide to discontinue the service, or if you have no net access you are out of luck, but come on, we are all network engineers - finding Internet is not exactly hard). ;-) -Eric On Fri, Jul 31, 2015 at 8:57 AM, Eriks Rugelis er...@netideainc.ca wrote: A couple of months ago I purchased a Flexbox V3 and a pile of SFP and SFP+ for $dayjob.

Multiple Sprint Outages?
Looks like Sprint is having a very bad day today in the NW? Anybody able to elaborate on exactly where these fiber cuts are and exactly what is impacted? I see mention of several different places that things may be cut right now... We saw sporadic readability issues this AM until we downed our connection to Sprint. http://www.datacenterknowledge.com/archives/2012/10/08/cable-cut-in-midwest-hobbles-alaska-airlines/ http://techcrunch.com/2012/10/08/sprint-voice-data-down-in-minnesota-washington-oregon-alaska-airlines-flights-delayed/ -Eric -- *Eric Rosenberry* Sr. Infrastructure Architect // Chief Bit Plumber

lol, nice. I should have actually read the output before posting. That's funny.
