[AusNOG] Vlan Add - Was Re: Work experience in networking/telecoms/DCs? Getting my foot in the door?

[Alex Lynn]

	Stupidest I've probably done to date was isolating the core switch
whilst trying to filter out Cisco PVST adverts on a VC of Juniper
EX4200's.  I was trying to migrate the whole system to MST and very
new to Juniper.  Got a little overzealous with the filter and didn't
fully understand the patchwork of cascading switches below.  I'm
now very very fond of the commit confirmed command in Junos, I was
slapped upside the head with that one AFTER I broke everything good
and proper.

Adding to the hilarity I'd also had my laptop reimaged a few days
prior, and as such by the time I'd found my USB-Serial adaptor and
legged it to the server room, it dawned on me when I saw "Driver
Installation Unsuccessful" on my screen, I'd forgotten to
install the driver pack for said USB Serial adaptor.  Was certainly
touch and go for a few minutes there, haha!

Ghosting HD's with the source and destination mixed up is also a bad
gotcha!

	Or, if you're more of a systems person, haven't locked yourself out
of a server due to a firewall change, or directly seen someone else do
so?   

	    

	I was installing Microsoft ISA 2000 remotely once (back in the
day).  As soon as it reboots, there's a "default deny" rule. 
Whoops.
