(TIL) Today I Learned...

TIL how to submit a JSON query to JAMF.

[config t]

TIL about initial setup and configuration of EtherSwitch Modules on the ISR. It sorta blew my mind that the module has its own flash memory, IOS and configuration separate from the router.

[config t]

I also learned how to do this today..

OK, so how do you do that?

[SimonV]

"send line" and then specify a vty line on which to send. I use it to let my colleagues know I'm keeping an eye on them, when they're doing changes

I found out by accident that our Opengear console servers will allow multiple connections to the same console. I wanted to check something (probably command syntax), and connected to a development router that our junior guy was working on. I left it open, and watched him configure some stuff.

send * will send to all open terminal sessions.

It's definitely good for the LOLs 

[deanwebb]

Just make sure you don't need a change request to do that...

[icecream-guy]

send * "all your base are belong to us"

OK, so my co-workers are going to hate you all soon. So the send command gives you a area to enter a multi line entry. When it shows up on their side it has a giant Message from prompt. Howver, if I put in enough lines of message that part will scroll off the screen, and they will not see it. So send the message.

hostname#
hostname#
*repeat this for 80 lines to scroll the Message from lines off the top of the screen*
hostname#wr erase
Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all configuration files! Continue? [confirm]
Erase complete *not sure what the real output would be, but neither would my coworkers*
hostname#reload
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: no
Reload command is being issued on Active unit, this will reload the whole stack
Proceed with reload? [confirm]
hostname#

I am not evil. I like to think of myself as chaotic neutral.

Just remember, you are not allowed to do anything that, when you think about, makes you laugh for more than 15 seconds!
