It’s one of those things that everyone knows and everyone asks. How big is 100 MB? This question is fundamentally flawed as the answer is in the question. So we should ask what does 100 MB mean? Well, to start … Continue reading
Symmetrical Multiprocessing in the Physical and Virtual World
The continuous shrinking of transistor size has pushed the limits of how many transistors can be placed on a single die (currently in the millions). In consequence, to utilize the increased amount of transistors, the CPU or “the core” has … Continue reading
Discovery Protocols on Cisco, HP, and Force10 Switches/Routers – CDP and LLDP
The Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a Cisco proprietary Data Link Layer network protocol used to share information about other directly connected Cisco equipment. CDP can also be used in place of dynamic routing protocols in simple networks. Cisco devices … Continue reading
