You got your SRP

You got your Sonet Rings connected via DPT
You got your OC3's to your ISP

Oh, fiber cut, ports are shut, man this sucks

You got your Single Mode

You had a fiber cut and your service dipped

Ah yes. The sounds of networks failing... now for it to emulate my life, just add a couple or 3 exchange servers biting the dust. Several mid-managers pointing fingers at each other. Lots of Techs running in circles and in the end, when the dust has settled and the fires are out, the root cause is "firewall problem"

Yeah we call 7pm-8pm the outage hour. So far everyday in the last week we have had a router crash between 7 & 8pm...interestingly enough this was after we did the upgrades for the cisco vulnerability. [:/] Hmmm....could thier be a bug in the fix?
Fly it like you stole it!
