Dec. 5th, 2002 08:56 pmMmm staff christmas party today. Lots of nice food and free drinks. I only drink softdrink, so I didn't take tooo much of an advantage, but some of my engineer co-workers.. well were still there 4 hours later apparently. Heh!
But I didn't write the day off.. I actually did work. I got a quote for some network cabling. Mmm fun fun. Also, was a bit of a BOFH, and sent out some quotation requests to a few vendors. See here. Made a slight layout boo-boo.. but meh ;)
Then after the party, I set up SNAP for students in our department.. well tried too. We have a different setup to the rest of the university.. for historical reasons, since we have so many subnets (9 class C publically routable netblocks :D) , our IP space is routed to us, as opposed to switched.. which means that the default gateway for our computers is an interface on a router that we own and manage, as opposed to almost everyone else, who's default gateway is an interface on an router owned and operated by the UCS. Which means all our internal traffic stays internal. Which is good, since two of the admins for UCS are actually our students... hehe. But the downside is, we can't use the same network for SNAP that everyone else does... so it may be a bit of work to get it fully working, but it's close.
