Overview In this episode of our ongoing DNA Center Automation Series, our focus moves to Rest-APIs and using postman to automate the network. We will change our focus from templating to automation through Postman, a great tool to examine RESTful APIs in a single user interface.

Like many of its competitors, Cisco’s quarterly and year-end financial results show the good and bad of the current economy—a record of new product orders alongside record backlogged orders. Cisco reported that for the period ending July 30, its quarterly revenue was basically flat year-over-year at $13.1 billion, but revenue for the 2022 fiscal year was up three percent to $51.6 billion.   “Full year product orders and backlog are both at record highs,” Cisco’s…

Redundancy is essential for dealing with both planned and unplanned outages, and that includes having redundant dynamic host-configuration protocol (DHCP) servers to allow uninterrupted dynamic assignment of IP addresses. For those working in Windows environments, there are currently two options for setting up redundant DHCP servers: a failover scenario with a main server paired with another in hot standby; and a load-balancing scenario in which two DHCP servers actively handle client requests. The hot-standby mode…

Egypt faces unique challenges, but along with those come unique opportunities. Egypt boasts the largest labor force in the region, and it is a youthful labor force too, with those in the 20 to 24 year-old age bracket representing more than half the labor force. But a challenge accompanies that, as there is an excess supply of young labor-market entrants with high education levels. The government is responding to this challenge in a number of…

When I’m not leading my region’s global enterprise sales team for Cisco, I can be found hanging out with my family or playing golf. And while I once threw a club (out of excitement) after sinking a birdie, I wouldn’t call myself a scratch golfer by any means. But just like work, I take my golf game seriously. Whether on the course or at the office, I’m obsessed with efficiency. Lose a round to my…

Whether it is a new VDI environment to enable remote work or being able to decommission older, slower, more power-hungry servers, a new server provides no business benefits until it is deployed and in production. The UCS difference UCS has always been different and innovative with the goal of making things simpler for customers and their IT teams. Unified fabric – collapsing data, storage, and management networks onto a single wire – made networking simpler…
