<br>
How do you feel that my response does not comply with the charter? It is discussion of specific implementation issues that require cooperation among internet infrastructure related service providers (fortinet) is after all a firewall/router, so I'm baffled
by your response. The moderation never specifies each item must be solely on a network related issue, and makes it clear that it is more than just network issues.<br>
<br>
It appears that you in totality have an issue with my initial greeting "Dear IT Industry Member", rather than anything within the actual content.<br>
<br>
I'll take it onboard, as I've already advised, but will continue in using the FORUM as means to find experience rather than blatant needle in a haystack Google queries. If you feel that this is the best way to find the experience and organisations that you
need in your business, that's something you are able to utilise.<br>
<br>
If you have a problem with my post, please escalate to moderation. <br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
<br>
Chris</font></span>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>The Australian Network Operators group (AusNOG) Is a list for Network Operators, Not a source to find information not related to network operations in cases where research has been lacking or you are unable to use Google to find the answer.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I suggest keeping unrelated topics off the list. There are many other sources of this information on-line including:</div>
<div><a href="http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization">http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization</a><br>
</div>
<div><br>

<div>VmWare also have a list you can sign up to at:</div>

<div>As far as I am concerned business research is not related to Network Operations, I am not a Moderator, Simply a watcher who does not appreciate this sort of spam in my mailbox.</div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font><br>

<div>If the email contents was related to networking, For example: Recommendation on switching, Security or IP Telephony then I am sure you will get many more welcome replies.</div>
