Bits per second to packets per second converter

Hi there! How is it going? Sometimes, when we talk about device performance we are talking in term of packets per second (pps) and bits per second (bps). But in latter case it's not quite correct to say "this device can do one hundrends megabits ber second" because router/switch/whatever performance is greatly depends on packet size and if you want to mention device performance in more accurate and professional way you would say "this device can do one hundrends megabits per second at 64 bytes packet size"

Rumors about CSA EoS/EoL

During last month I've heard some rumors that Cisco Security Agent is going to be dropped and end-of-sale is going to be announced in a near future. Personally I was expecting things like that because the CSA's development pace is rather slow. And I'm saying that in a polite way :). They even don't get CSA compatible with 64-bit platforms during last several years. Some sources says there will be a new great product that will replace CSA in an year or two.

Cisco Inc. history

Cisco launched a new marketing project which is called CISCO SYSTEMS CORPORATE TIMELINE. A lot of facts about Cisco's technological, business and marketing leadership. Quite interesting especially about 80's and early 90's years. Sometimes I miss those ages

By the way the Okena company which is CSA's original mother was acquisited in 2003. That was almost 6 years ago and it seems to me that CSA functionality and interface wasn't changed very much so far. Yes I know about all the new features but sometimes I think that Cisco could have done more. CSA could be more flexible, more sexier. I have some thoughts and suggestions but... time is short. And how on earth I could contact BU?

Hey! I supposed to talk about what CCIEvault is and what it is for, so I just tell you the basic principles:

1) First of all, this site was made as a place where I can keep professional information. I just forget everything all the time, so let it be here

2) Keep things easy, the goal is quick learning/recalling (quick and I hope not so dirty :)

3) Third rule is to provide my personal experience along with basic information (so called best-practices)

4) And fourth, last but not least, provide the next step(s), for those who need more detailed info,links to guides, sources or manuals.
