Use it for testing python scripts because everyone is crying about network programability and python in 2017... I'm kidding, I love Kevin Wallace! hahaha

 

I have a 2610 that likes to be treated like a slave and makes me test all my python scripting on it... In all seriousness, why not just use it in a lab... My lab is becoming insane (although I would like maybe 12 more routers LOL so why don't you just send it to me! NOT GNS3!!!)

I'm going to put a link to my PC specs which actually aren't my PC specs and I cry myself to sleep everyday so I can have these PC specs but I can't afford these PC specs so PC specs PC specs PC specs PC specs PC specs PC specs.

I am planning on moving to virl once I finish ccnp studies, I bought the whole package of cucm 11.5 which I'm goign to try to integrate... It just amuses me so much more than the other topics so I need to do some major research before I redo my lab

Yah, I need to take some pics of the lab I've got at work :)

Currently redoing all the management connectivity to be a pair of N9K-C93180LC-EX boxes per row in the center with FEXes fanned out on either side, spaced every other rack. We've got three half-rows to do next weekend.
