[18:26] <Obsidian1723> I'm going to replace my Cisco 1924 (10Gbps limit on it) with something else, but not sure if I want another managed switch or not. Ideally, if I go managed, I'd like to console into it, but also manage it via a GUI if possible instead. I may go unmanaged, not sure. Needs to be 24 port, 10/100, GB uplinks. Right now I'm 2u/12d cable, but fiber ma be an option down the road. Any suggestions anyone?
[18:57] <tonyyarusso> Obsidian1723: Well, I may be looking to sell a 24 port full gigabit 1U unmanaged switch ;)
[18:58] <Obsidian1723> make / model?
[18:59] <tonyyarusso> D-Link DGS-1024D
[19:00] <Obsidian1723> why ya selling it?
[19:00] <tonyyarusso> Looking to upgrade to managed.  (I now work for a network monitoring company, so I'd like to have something that supports monitoring at home.)
[19:01] <tonyyarusso> well, managed or "smart".
[19:01] <Obsidian1723> ah you got the gig at Nagios?
[19:01] <tonyyarusso> yeah
[19:01] <Obsidian1723> right on...
[19:01] <Obsidian1723> I interviewed for that, but I think I'm a bit costly.
[19:01] <tonyyarusso> could be
[19:02] <Obsidian1723> Well, I'd have needed 75k a year at least.,
[19:02] <tonyyarusso> haha, yeah no
[19:02] <Obsidian1723> IIt's a good company, love their product, Ethan is a nice guy, I'd have loved to work there...
[19:03] <Obsidian1723> Is there a web gui for the switch?
[19:04] <tonyyarusso> Nope.  Unmanaged.
[19:05] <Obsidian1723> hmmm what are you looking to get for it?
[19:05] <tonyyarusso> Hadn't really thought about it yet.
[19:06] <tonyyarusso> "make an offer" I guess.
[19:06] <Obsidian1723> well, newegg has them for 139 right now...
[19:07] <tonyyarusso> well, with the MIR that nobody remembers to do :P
[19:07] <Obsidian1723> I'm going to shop around, I think I need to go to Micro-Center, check out some stuff. You in a hurry to sell it?
[19:07] <tonyyarusso> not really, no
[19:07] <Obsidian1723> when it comes to money, I always remember.
[19:07] <Obsidian1723> ok..
[19:09] <Obsidian1723> So are you going to work on incrporating Nagios with Ubuntu better?
[19:10] <tonyyarusso> Hard to say.  Also, depends on what you mean.
[19:13] <Obsidian1723> Well, seems like support is better for RH-based distros vs Debian-based ones. I think the nagios availabe in the Ubuntu repos is an older version too. Maybe update it and / or setup a nagios PPA?
[19:17] <tonyyarusso> Re: support - yes, the documentation and whatnot is generally RH-centric, although the software runs perfectly fine on both.
[19:17] <Obsidian1723> true.
[19:17] <tonyyarusso> Re: Ubuntu repos version: Ubuntu uses a time-based release model.
[19:17] <tonyyarusso> Re: PPA: See ~nagiosinc
[19:19] <tonyyarusso> I am planning to update the "quickstart" documentation so Ubuntu users aren't told to install from source anymore.
[19:20]  * tonyyarusso should go eat
[19:35] <Obsidian1723> cools
[19:35] <Obsidian1723> so launchpad.net/nagiosinc ?
