I hope that address 76.76.96.180 will be blocked soon.

Thick coaxial length

The Maximum Single Cable Length of thick coaxial for 10Base5 is 500 m.

Blog.de

I wrote that I could not create a blog on Blog.de. I cannot open Blog.de from my Russian IP addresses for many weeks already.

BOMD. James BOMD

I decided to memorize the following abbreviation for the optimazation from some Cisco course: BOMD (Baseline, Optimize, Monitor, Deploy). For my Russian ear, it sounds like Bond (James Bond).

MASS

In some of its courses, Cisco writes about four objectives in the design of any high-performance network: security, availability, scalability, and manageability. I invented a simple mnemonic for these four aspects - MASS (manageability, availability, scalability, security).

WLAN. Pronunciation

People say "VLAN" as "vee-LAN". I expected that "WLAN" is pronounced as "double-you-LAN" but it is pronounced as "Wireless-LAN" :)

Blog in German. Update

I wrote that blog.de had not permitted to create a blog from my Russian IP-address. I speculated about this angrily but I was not right. I have received an invitation from blog.de after I had written to the support of blog.de. Germans are normal people.
