OUCH

Man, that's gotta hurt.

default route ::0/0 wasn't propagating, next hop wasn't available on the active, but it was on the standby. Fail over fixed it temporarily.

So I am in China helping the locals migrate off of a flat /21 to a properly designed network. While here I am taken to visit another location of ours and find that the core switch is an unmanaged netgear. lol.....this trip is very eye opening and sometimes sad all at once.

rebuilding my FPR-4140-K9 today:

I followed most of the steps without issue but I get stuck here.

Step 9 of 11

Check the integrity of the image, possibly restart process if there are issues with image integrity? https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/firepower/fxos/fxos221/cli-guide/b_CLI_ConfigGuide_FXOS_221/image_management.html#topic_903C3296477343699E65B97FB6EB5FE8

yeah, I found that link yesterday, and was going through it , unfortunately I don' t have access to download the image.....somebody forgot to add SmartNet to the PO for our new 4110's*. so I've got to go around through the back door and get entitlement.

* oh, that's another good frustration

All day long, I've been trying to get ESXi on my lab server without using a DVD. Finally got it on by juggling boot order for the HDDs and getting it on a bootable flash drive.

Dell iDRAC could have saved me, but for incompatible Java versions.

Java... Java makes me say...

Customer is frustrated with internal processes, then I get frustrated, too.

We share the sad.

:boohoo:

Then the PM gets engaged and finds out we're behind schedule and we face, together:

This one is most likely the one that matches that condition.

my work laptop crashed earlier in the week,  1/2 recovered with some old backups  but lost alot of data. The desktop tech was able to access  the hard drive and scrape off some important files I needed. I've been living off a loaner for a few days living in a hazy cloud waiting for my laptop to be reimaged, then I've got to spend half a day reinstalling all the custom configurations I had been running.

See Today I learned thread for more....
