While we mull over whether Steve Jobs swept away his past differences with John Chambers by offering the networking boss a free iPhone, here are some quick highlights of what occured in the past seven days at our favorite routing company to watch:
Milw0rm published a paper about the IOS vulnerability that made Michael Lynn a controversial figure at Black Hat in 2005. Cisco created a new business unit in India to develop the intelligent infrastructure, and got caught in the latest debate about U.S. jobs going to foreign workers.
At Cisco Subnet, blogger Jeff Doyle describes the router in your pocket, and explains Non-Stop Forwarding (NSF), Non-Stop Routing (NSR), and Graceful Restart (GR).
Blogger Brad Reese met Scott Morris, a quadruple CCIE who boasts a $2.3 million networking lab in the basement of his home; asks why Cisco network design questions are rarely answered at Cisco technical forums; and finds a tutorial that tells you how to run IOS on any PC.
We also posted a free chapter from Jim Geier’s Deploying Voice over Wireless LANs book.
Next week: Winners of Denise Donohue’s CCNP Quick Reference Sheets Bundle.
