Cisco IP Phone 7941

Advantages: ease of use, strong, durable, linking into GAL, remote managment and upgrades from call manager.
Disadvantages: Call quality is dependant on quality of the Network. Duplex settings, over utilized network, etc

...In my experience with the Cisco IP phone 7941, which has been for 5 years or so, has been nothing but pleasure. There features to link into AD and the ability to log onto any phone in the building and look up a user on the GAL on AD is very handy indeed. Call Transfer,Conference, Mute are the standard features. The Phones will have to be set up to work with a call manager, Which is a centre point to manage the phones, and has the ability to record conversation for quality control, etc. They have 2 options when it comes to powering these phones, on is to buy a power adapter, the other is to buy a Cisco Switch that can supply power to the phones via Ethernet. They are strong and reliable, they have been used as call centre phones, and we know what kind of abuse they would be put through in that environment. All in all, i would rate...

Review of Cisco IP-Phone 7941

Obsolete, but perfect for Cisco exams

Advantages: Very Cheap, with lots of features
Disadvantages: Will help with CCNA, but may stuggle with CCNP

...I bought one of these routers off ebay to help with my upcoming (Cisco) CCNA exam. These are by no means cutting edge routers, and are obsolete now as they only support 10Mbps via their AUI (lan) port and support a limited amount of protocols. The router itself has one AUI port, which when used with a transceiver can connect to either another router or a switch (at 10Mbps); 2 serial ports which can be configured with a routing protocol such as frame relay to connect to another switch or ISP data terminal equipment, a console port to configure the router itself, and an AUX port for modem connection. Though well past it's sell by date, the switch is perfect to get to grips with Ciscos IOS (internetwork Operating System) and set up simple routed networks in conjuction with other routers and switches. One thing to be aware of when buying...

Review of Cisco 2501 - router

To network or not to network????

Advantages: can get you a very well paid job!, world wide
Disadvantages: alot of info to take in, can get very confusing!

...First of all, What is Cisco? Cisco is a networking course, which is split into four parts, Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) 1, Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) 2, Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) 3, and Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) 4. In each CCNA, there are around 15 online mini tests which helps you to pass the final exam. In my Cisco class, we aim to do 1 mini test a week, and on the final test for each CCNA part, we must obtain, 70% or more, for a pass. Cisco in general teaches you how to connect two or more personal computers to each other and enable them to communicate, which can be used to share a internet connection, share printers, to send files, or even have a massive game, against all your mates! which is also known as a LAN party! Types of networks There are many types of networks...

Review of Cisco Certified Networking Course

CCNA New Version from March 2002

Advantages: Great starting point for advancement, Certification
Disadvantages: credible in industry, geek like...

...The CCNA changed earlier this year. Not a great deal of problems though. A CCNA is the Cisco Certified Network Administrator which indicates that the holder of the certificate has passed a Cisco exam indicating that they can carry out the operation of an administrator in a Network IT function. The actual exam is taken online via either prometric or VUE which costs about £90... The pass mark is a rather high 85 % give or take 1%... As I said the exam changed recently, it used to be 65 questions and was quite straight forward... Nowadays the Exam also consists of a performance related section on a Cisco router/switch whereby the screen represents an actual screen display from a switch and asks you to type commands etc instead of multiple choice type answers. The exam is now 45 questions which are slightly harder and make...

Review of Cisco Certified Network Associate

A Cisco by any other name.

Advantages: Cheap, instalation, WPA
Disadvantages: Plastic, some config settings, Reliablity

...In the depths of London I had a problem, that being I have one DSL line and three computers all stand alone so the options open to me were either CAT 5 my home or try this new fangled magical technology called Wireless… And so it began. I went on line and found this delightful looking product the WAP54G and being from Linksys meant it was also from Cisco and you can not get a Cisco wireless Access point for under £50 so I went for it. The Specifications of the Linksys Had everything that I needed B+G compatible in the 2.4 frequency category Security includes 256 encryption, WEP, WPA, WPA -RADIUS So with this I went off to work on installing it. Firstly I would like to say what a user friendly set up this Access Point (AP) has all you have to do is connect to your PC network port with a normal network cable run the CD, Run...

Review of Linksys Wireless-G Access Point WAP54G

Keep those buggers (hackers) out!

Advantages: reliable, supportable and Cisco behind you
Disadvantages: cost

...If you are looking to connect your home or small office network to the net then this is a must. Quite simply, a firewall is a method or a barrier to keep destructive people andforces away from your property/information/children. By comparison; that is why its called a firewall. It actuallt performs a similar job to that of a physical firewall that keeps a fire from spreading from one area to the next (often missing from old properties in the loft). The 515 would be installed and used between your internet connection and the PCs on the network and therefore prevents the hackers getting to your PC. The 515 and all Cisco security products are well tested and used in the commercial and military markets and therefore can be trusted. If you feel comfortable that free personal firewall is adequate then I suggest you type in the make...

Review of Cisco PIX 515E

thankyou for educating us

Advantages: A networking qualification available at the end
Disadvantages: extra workload

...As well as the 4 as levels I have taken, I am also taking a cisco networking course. This takes place after college for 3 hours a week. The course is split into semesters and each is made up of chapter tests. I have just finished semester 1 and I have foud that I have learned a lot. the first semester has a lot of general information, but also features a lot about planing a network, taking into consideration wiring closets, types of wires etc. As well as the theory there is an extensive practical side to the course, with many cabes you have to make and wire up as well as taken to pieces computer units. Since I am doing Computing as an A level, the cisco course coinsides with this perfectly, by delivering background knowledge, an extensive readings and practical demonstrations. Thankyou cisco!...

The best iPod / Phone!

Advantages: unbelivably sexy and beautiful, wonderful internet and video / music
Disadvantages: needs a couple of firmware updates to become the perfect phone

...common that Apple were to launch a phone of some description, and these rumours were put to bed on the 29th June 2007 when Apple announced the iPhone. It was initially launched with a 4GB and 8GB memory, but was also launched into some confusion. The trademark iPhone actually belonged to Cisco. Whilst the details of the settlement were never announced, Cisco allowed Apple to use the term iPhone, which in these days of litagation, could have spelt trouble for the iPhone's launch. It was in London of September 2007 that Apple announced that the iPhone was to be launched in the UK on the 9th of November 2007, along with Germany and France. It would be launched in the UK with O2, Germany with T-Mobile and France with Orange. Various commentators have speculated that O2 could be giving 40% of their revenue from each iPhone customer to Apple, which...

Beautiful, Comfy bras for big busts

Advantages: good quality, inexpensive, fast delivery , excellant customer service
Disadvantages: NONE!

...matching briefs or thongs to go with them. The back sizes start at a 30 and go up to often a 44 or more on selected items. Now I can hear your thoughts, saying well yes all well and good but I bet their really expensive, your wrong! Prices start from £17 with the average bra around £25, a lot better than the £35-£60 we've had to spend in the past just to get something in our size. They have some gorgeous underwear and they dont all come in black and white. Blues, pinks, clarets, and velour have all made an appearence. They're made well and bravissmo have a guarentee that if an item is faukty they will replace it and this covers up to 6mnths since you bought it. They also do a selection of swimsuits and bikinis, mostly underwired to give you a good shape. Some bikinis are offered to you in seperate pieces so if you have a smaller half...
