Undocumented Feature in IOS 11.2

November 15, 2009 - 5:02pm

I found an undocumented feature in Cisco IOS 11.2.
The command “show interface description” exists in newer versions, so I typed it in out of habit. Even though it doesn’t tab-complete it, or know what that option to the sh int command is, it still works… Albeit badly, and it gives terribly formatted output (All on one line, no spaces between names, no blank spaces where unlabeled ports are, etc)

It still works though! :-)  read more »

I decided to redo the NFS setup I previously had on my ol’ Itanium2 machine.

10GB ECC DDR
3x 74GB 15k RPM U320 SCSI drives in RAID5

VirtualBox, while I like the interface and it has a few features that are lacking in VMWare and other virtualization products, has many issues.
First off, it doesn’t quite implement the x86 instruction architecture perfectly.
Secondly, this is terrible:

Maybe our Routers can meet and have lunch some time? No? Fine.

Here’s to you, blog viewers of this last month. I’m fairly sure this isn’t the normal OS distribution… You guys are awesome. :-)

Initially I thought the OpenBSD must have been me, as I run it on my router (yay pf!), but then I realized I don’t even have a browser installed on it… really can’t have been me, I guess. You know what that means? There are at least two users of OpenBSD! Alright! Party!  read more »
