if 1 server exhausts it's pool and receives a request for an address, does the server send back a 'sorry we're out of addresses' message?
Yes, if Server 1 answers most of the time and runs out of addresses, it will deny an address to the new device and the second DHCP server will never get a chance to hand one out. That was the point I tried to make earlier about how you'd get far fewer IP addresses to use than you actually have because they'd be handed out asymmetrically.

@siringo said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
coz if that's the case and PCs receive this message and don't re-broadcast their request, they could end up without an IP address.
Correct. So the setup only works reliably when you have less than ~250 total devices on the network. Once you hit as many devices as 1/2 of your total available, you start to risk not getting an address even though up to 1/2 of all possible addresses might still be available.

Good show, I really liked it.

@siringo said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
I have dhcp running on 2 servers with non overlapping address scopes
server 1 hands out a.b.c.100 - 254
server 2 hands out a.b.d.100 - 254So to go along with your question. This means each server has 155 addresses to hand out and there are 310 addresses in the pools.
With the way it is set up, only 155 addresses are guaranteed to be usable. But if you made the scope continuous not only would you get both sets, but you'd get c.100-254, but c.100-d.254 for 410 total addresses! Way more. Because you have loads being lost just because you are blocking off random addresses in the middle of your range, too.

They've already got quite a few.

This seems crazy, but CloudFlare mirrors the traffic numbers.

Creating a Zip Folder for my ISO of Server 2019 to put onto a flash drive so I can Use it at my house after I install Fedora 31 and KVM to practice Windows AD for hands on practice.
apparently even after creating a zip file it's too large to transfer..
I carry a 128 gb drive with all of my documentation, installables, and license info on me all the time. Been too many times when network was down or I was off campus and had to install something.

Mine is a 128 too, but it was using Fat32 not NTFS.
Had to reformat the drive; go tit reformatted and the file copied over with no issues. -

Thanks @Dashrender for explaining that to me.

Pricey, but they're amazing. Super comfortable despite being large, and the sound is beautiful. Plus they can do properly summed mono (for checking your mixdown) as well as a midrange enhancing mode (also for checking mixdowns). Would make great daily listening headphones, but they are certainly designed for studio use.
