Is it to the point where I can just forward the emails from help desk to
NANOG so I don't have to answer them?

I just wish spammingtree was on by default.

Oh, and he wants to read this helpful guide by Eric S. Raymond, too:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Deric doesn't know he wants to.. but he *wants* to. *Right Now*. :slight_smile:

And along similar lines - "How to Report Bugs Effectively":

replied inline, with a summary below

Hi

There is problem in our network. The connection is disappearing.

From this i take is that you are using the avaya networking gear with the fcoe protocol enabled, this is a big no-no. you need to disable ipsec, then enable dns, your connection should come right back

ls it about lop ing?

it is not about lops at all, nor is it about looping, its all about the trees dude, there is a hidder feature called, treehugger protocol. and this will help prevent looping in the long term, its hidden behind the power chord, unplug the power cable from your switch, and you will see it between the three prongs. no that you can see this, test for excessive looping

How can I check it in switch?

if the step above failed, i would take the cable that is plugged into port 7 of your switch and plug the other end into port 13, it might help, i would also leave in there for a while, and go grab a cup of coffee

ls spammingtree disable by default?

only if there are branches

Thank you so much

welcome

TBH, this thread has made the hour preceding my Juniper upgrades *way* more
enjoyable.

haha! Spammingtree! I love it!!!

solution: quit smoking crack.

Is there an acronym for RTFM when there are a volume of manuals that need to be read?

Yea, it's T2SP or Time to Switch Professions...

FOAD, perhaps?

folks do get that deric's primary language isn't English right? so
asking him to explain is probably 'ok'.
(yes, he could have put more details into his mail, yes it would have
been more helpful and quicker to an answer for him...)

indeed..

of course I forgot to do what I asked :frowning:

Deric,
could you restate your question?

Sure there is. LMGTFY :slight_smile:

Whatever else you might think of Eric S Raymond, the URL I cited is still
the best summary I've seen, and probably the most help we can give Deric
in under 64 bytes. Because let's face it, no matter *what* Deric's native
language is, he's not going to get anything useful from NANOG or any other
mailing list till he either reads Eric's FAQ, or otherwise learns the info in there.

Well, shouldn't he be asking on the SWEINTPLNOG[1] mailing list then?

Cheers,
