Interesting #server sales metrics whitebox sales are growing faster than @cisco server sales

Bet you didnt know that...    while Cisco touts great growth... HP is still #1 at over 26% market share


but... oddly enough... "white box" servers have more market share than Cisco does. and "white box" sales are growing faster than Cisco sales!

ROFL!!!!

#Zlab Project: Step #1 in the Unified wlan

#Zlab Project: Setting up a @hp_networking unified wlan system

So, I'm going to start a project to upgrade my wireless in my house.  I've been running the a MSM 710 controller for the last 4 years and it has worked well.  I have deployed several HP MSM 460 access points to cover my house.  Why do I have several?  Well, my house is a crafstmans style house from 1910 and has rather robust construction...thick concrete walled rooms in the basement, a large chimney going through the center of the house, and very thick woodwork throughout.  I currently have four access points I could benefit from more. Potentially I'll add 417 or 517 access points to increase coverage in some spots at a more economical price.

My plan with this video is to do it in multiple parts.  Biggest reason is just time, i'm going to try to fit this in between my day job here at HP.  

I'll show you as much as possible...but there will probably be some slow parts..or honestly some parts where I've gotten rusty and dont want you to see how some of my knowledge has slipped away from me!  ;-)

Here at HP, I'm a Networking Specialist... which means I'm in sales.  I spend my time talking to customers, not engineering, and definitely not installing. So..this should be fun for both me... and for you as you get to see what the difficulty level is to install a HP Unified WLAN system.

To keep costs down, I'm using a EOS HP wx5004 controller.  We stopped selling these last June...but it will be just fine for this project for several reasons.  First, it runs the same code as the 830/850/870 controllers. And second, it can be licensed for up to 256 access points...way more than I need...but much better than the 710 I have which is limited.  I'll reuse the 460 access points I have..but will probably add in some of the newer access points like the 417, 425, 517, and 525.

We will use HP IMC as much as possible and if I dont get too distracted..my intention is to finally configure User Access Module (UAM) for network authentication

My new fav wlan access point from @hp_networking the 525 802.11ac access point is out!

This new ap is a mid-performance model giving you 866mb/s of 802.11ac.  Its 2x2 MIMO.

Sure..its not screaming fast like the HP 560, but its also a ton cheaper.  And... all the devices I have are 2x2 mimo...so having 3x3 wouldnt benefit me.  Things I like:

• Price/performance...   $699 for 866mbs.  If you buy an Ecopack (8) price drops to roughly $650 list price
• Supports either built in or external antennas in the same model
• IDS/IPS (no extra licenses)
• RF Spectrum Analysis (no extra licenses)
• Lifetime warranty (no smartnet!)

@ciscosystems emergency responder (cer) interop with @hp_networking ??? #noproblem

Yep, no problem!  Dont believe the FUD that Cisco says that you need Cisco switches with Cisco Emergency Responder.     CER has a mode for assigning ERL to ip subnets.  If you're building/campus is big enough to warrant multiple ERLs... then you probably have multiple ip subnets anyway.

Read how to do it right in the Cisco CER manual:

Is your network ready for #802.11ac @hp_networking seminar #wifi #wlan

Preparing your campus backbone to handle 802.11 ac enabled traffic.

Ready for 802.11 ac? Your campus network backbone may not be

	Optimize your network for 802.11ac Learn how to avoid the collapse of your campus backbone while supporting 802.11ac during the September 9, 2014 at 11 am PT webinar. Sign-up now

Why attend? With 802.11ac paving the way for up to 7 Gbps of throughput  per access point, the unparalleled user experience “AC” offers will be an invitation for more users to BYOD.  According to the research firm Gartner, close to 50% of mobile traffic over the next five years will be from video. The big increases in traffic loads will cascade to the “breaking” of the campus backbone. However, embracing this trend is inevitable. To sufficiently prepare your network without imposing forklift upgrades, you need to understand all of your options for your current network design. HP technical experts can help you explore options that fit your current situation. During this webinar you will learn about: - Impact of 802.11ac traffic on the campus backbone - Significance of 100GbE in the campus backbone - AC architectures for distributed and centralized models (2 or 3 tiers) - The new 100GbE module on HP 10500 series switch   Join us on Sept 9 at 11 am PT live webinar presented by Eric Holton, Sr. Technical Marketing Engineer, Yarnin Israel, Technical Marketing Engineer, and Ruben Iglesias, Technical Marketing Engineer, to learn how HP can help prepare your campus backbone for handling 802.11ac enabled rich media traffic.

Software Defined Networking

HP Cloud v13.5 builds on the OpenStack Neutron service complemented with Software Defined Networking (SDN) technology from HP Networking to offer more robust and flexible networking capabilities to rapidly customize your network as needed. Then, you can simply connect it with your existing on-premise datacenter via a VPN tunnel. Spinning up a compute instance automatically configures

• A default network
• A subnet
• A router connected to the subnet and externally to the Internet
• A security group with basic server options

Our Networking API or the Management Console exposes a rich set of additional functionality including the ability to

• Define and configure your own private Virtual L2 Networks
• Establish Virtual Private Network (VPN)
• Specify IP address ranges and security group parameters that define the firewall rules for your instances to ensure they don?t conflict with your existing on-premise network
• Allocate and manage public floating IP addresses
• Connect to a specific network
• Connect an instance to more than one network
• Establish a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection between the networks you create and your existing on-premise network

You also have the ability to set communication rules (security group rules) for both inbound and outbound traffic, create separate networks with their own IP address ranges, and control how servers connect to them. As a region-wide service you have the ability to

• Use a single API endpoint per region
• Connect networks in different Availability Zones to the same virtual L2 network
• Have your security groups span all Availability Zones in a region
• Map floating IP addresses to any Availability Zone in a region

@cisco #allovertherickenmap with #SDN

This is getting comical.  They change their stance once a quarter!  Lets go through the current list:

1.  SDN isnt real.
2.  OpenFlow isnt production ready
3.  Cisco ONEPK  (only works on Cisco)
4. Cisco OpenDaylight (onepk or openflow controller)
5. Cisco ACI (only works on certain cisco switches which arent even released yet)
6. Cisco OpFlex (alternative to Openflow)

Give it a quarter and some management changes and I'm sure it will change again.
