Death of Dynamips...or NOT?

Hi All,

Cisco has introduces software licensing with the IOS 15.0
My first reaction was to mourn the exiit of my faithful friend...DYNAMIPS.

But on a closer look, the IOS licensing DOES NOT directly affect dynamips.

"Cisco Software Activation is a simplified approach to software deployment and management, and is implemented on Cisco Catalyst 3750-E and 3560-E Switches and Cisco Integrated Services Routers Generation 2"

http://www.cisco.biz/en/US/products/ps9677/products_ios_technology_home.html

Dynamips CANNOT emulate the devices with licenses yet.

The Licensing hasn't been implemented on the 7200s yet so we can still run the 15.0 on the 7200 routers.

Thanks to Ivan of "Cisco IOS Hints and Tricks" for pointing this out.

Goodbye '09

Hi Everyone,

As the year winds up, I figured I'ld steal a quick post - the very last one for 2009.

2009 was a quite a phenomenal one - You'ld probably be in 2010 by the time you are reading this ;)

Highlights of the year include; GEM (Global Economic Meltdown), Graduation from the University, Passing the CCIE R&S lab, Serving my country, Starting this blog and a whole lot of other events.

Looking back at the year, there is a lot to be happy about and I am immensely grateful to God and everyone that made the year a special one. Thank you to family, friends, peers, colleagues and everyone.

Wish you all a great new year. Its about 90mins away from here. Let the fireworks begin :-)

Cheers,

Amplebrain.

Merry Christmas!

Hi Everyone,
Merry Christmas.
Hope you all have fun and stay away from 'geeky' stuff :-)
Here's what I'ld call a totally "cisco-geeky" xmas.
Thanks to Joe Astorino on GS for the link.

As the year comes to an end, it's time to take stock and make resolutions for 2010.
Feliz Navidad guys!

21 yr old CCIE : Interview with CCIE Agent

I was going thru CCIE flyer October Edition when I stumbled on Peter Ehiwe's interview. Peter is my friend, classmate and study partner. Details of the interview can be found here.

Quote of the day: "Peter you are so young just 21 years old. I have shoes older than you!" - Eman Conde (CCIE Agent) :D

Way to go bro!
