Operations task management software?

Hi all, curious if anyone has recommendations on software that helps manage routine duties assigned to operations staff? For example, let’s say we have a P that says someone from the netops group must check that Rancid is successfully backing up all router configs bi-weekly. Ideally, it would

Anyone seeing issues with Level 3 networking right now? We’re seeing huge latency and loss on traffic coming inbound (to us, AS33260) but it seems to be at the peering points with other major ISP’s and Level 3. Comcast for example: 333 ms21 ms70 ms

The specific phrase you’ll want to use with your VZ rep is a “machine to machine” plan. It’s the same type of plans alarm companies purchase for cell-backups. They have plans with data allowances as low as 1 MB/month for a few dollars, but you get destroyed if you go over the plan because the

Hey all, as we've slowly deployed IPv6 to our end users, it has begun to cause some issues for those on Mac's specifically. Apple apparently has an algorithm at some point in the network stack to decide whether IPv4 or IPv6 is, perhaps, 'better' or 'faster' at any given point in time during an

From: Mel Beckman [mailto:m...@beckman.org] David, Did you consider running an IPv6 tunnel through HE.net? We couldn't get the desired throughput via HE tunnel. We tried it, then switched to v6 through VPN using a slice of our own allocation, but ultimately didn't want that overhead
