lets just say - I have a site that is using a payment terminal - and we've replaced the payment terminal once already because it was getting network errors that it could not obtain network information - so we replaced with a brand new device- and now the new device is getting the same network error as the other device - so that tells me it's a network issue at that location - right? process of elimination..
probably - could be a bad cable. or bad WAP.
what I was thinking as well.
but my salesman showed me a vm he got last night and this customer is upset and blaming us and suggesting that he wants his money back the devices removed - though I've told him multiple times in the past to fix his network.
I'm not sure what you expect here? Since you don't manage the whole stack (device/network/firewall/internet connection) of course he's an idiot and will blame anyone he can for his problems.
There's nothing you can really do - so there's no point in getting upset about it. You've replaced the unit, beyond that there is nothing you can do because you don't manage the network. if your boss tells you to remove the gear, then just do it.
move on.. don't dwell. -

move on.. don't dwell.I've told the customer to have a company local to them come out and check the lines, Being blamed for issues that are caused out side of our scope is something I'm used to.

@dashrender You can opt In your tenant and it is suppsoed to be active until Oct 2022. But in my case my devices all supposedly support TLS 1.2 so its supposed to be a non issue. Got finger pointing on both sides now.

Working on getting my speech processors repaired and/or replaced. Both primary and backup are dead in the water. Fortunately, I have a third, so I'm not stone deaf for the next 4 to 6 weeks.
Oy...

EdgeRouter 24/48 (ES-24-LITE)
These are switches.
Yeah my bad, was looking at some routers for a different project.

@jaredbusch said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
Why route between VLANs? Just keep the network flat if you are going to route anyway.
Actually now i think about it i don't for this project lol
But we route on our "Core Switch" to allow communication between VLANs so people on VLAN 1 and see the Servers on VLAN 30 (No we can't use flat network, don't ask why that's the way it's been since i started!!! my just the engineer not manager )e.g. Clients are on 10.120.85.X/24 and we've ran out of address so the servers are on 172.X.X.X/24

People are crazy. So much less human error prone to just expand the scope to a /22 and be done.

May as well record it. Never know when it will be useful as an audio background, lol.

I've done experimental, avant garde pieces from such ambient sounds.

I sort of hate the Adobe Reader DC installer. It self deletes on install. So - I wrote and damn stupid script to copy it from the drive to the computer and run - this way I don't have to keep downloading it. Stupid simple.. but it worked exactly as I wanted it to.

I'd say it's a successful script.
