Details for the next meeting of Ottawa Valley SAGE.

Location: unknown (Adrian, can we use the Mitel location, or should
we look to using Exit Certified?)

Date: Thursday March 21, 2002

Time: 7:00PM

Directions: will be posted as soon as the location is finalized.

Topics:

Mystery Topic Revealed - Stephen Beaton (deferred from February
deferred from January, deferred from December) The different methods
of network redundancy on Solaris servers. Network redundancy the
cheap hard way or the easy, more costly way.

February Meeting Minutes:

Attendees:

Scott
Adrian
Ed
Gabe

Topics covered:

• I talked about setting up proxy ARP to do pseudo-bridging[1], which
  I don’t have a formal write up for yet, but will soon, and will send
  around when I do.

• I also talked about how done _wrong_, proxy ARP can wreak havoc on
  an ISP subnet that’s one big bridged ethernet segment. I spoke from
  experience. :) Beware of blindly enabling proxy ARP on an external
  ISP connected interface if it’s a bridged connection.

If I remember correctly, we had not edcided on a topic for March, so
I guess it’s time to solicit suggestions.

Or a location, which is up for deciding. If we’re interested in
holding meetings at Mitel at March/Carling, I can find out about doing
that, but I won’t know until we move into our new digs March 15th.

Seems that I have been involved in some of the more convoluted
network infrastructure designs for the past couple of years, so I
will probably talk about the different methods of network redundancy
on Solaris servers. Network redundancy the cheap hard way or the
easy, more costly way :) If your interested in any other aspects of
putting a light out data center together, let me know and I will try
and put together a bit more.

I just love the moderation process…

The previous messages were queued and I never received the
notifications.

Ed, you have anything you want to talk about?

Also, I’m changing the moderation rules so that the regular attendees
can post without approval.
