TAMPA-CORE-EX is back up
by Bryan Fields 19 Apr '19

19 Apr '19

Restarted it, and did a POE controller upgrade. I tried the controller upgrade but it wouldn't take until I restarted it. Since we don't have a support contract it, lets just call it a juniper bug and move on. That said, the system was up for over a year. Wish I could say the microtik was that good :) bfields@TAMPA-CORE-EX> show system uptime fpc0: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current time: 2019-04-19 02:19:13 UTC System booted: 2018-03-18 16:20:43 UTC (56w4d 09:58 ago) Protocols started: 2018-03-18 16:23:13 UTC (56w4d 09:56 ago) Last configured: 2019-04-19 02:17:24 UTC (00:01:49 ago) by bfields 2:19AM up 396 days, 9:59, 1 user, load averages: 0.41, 0.38, 0.34 bfields@TAMPA-CORE-EX> show poe controller Controller Maximum Power Guard Management Status Lldp index power consumption band Priority 0** 410.00W 0.00W 0W Class AF_MODE Disabled **New PoE software upgrade available.

Hamwan logging/monitoring/projects
by Bryan Fields 14 Apr '19

14 Apr '19

Does anyone want to take over this important project? We could benefit from setting up librenms and having some basic alerting on things. Graylog would be nice to get setup for logging (it's just syslog now) and a grafana front end would be really cool. I'd like to setup some ansiable provisioning of the client radios too, the main hamwan guys have this working. Would this be "fun" for anyone to setup? I'd prefer to have someone who would enjoy it do it if they have the time. Open to other ideas too, but I've been putting doing our own mongering off for some time. 73's -- Bryan Fields 727-409-1194 - Voice http://bryanfields.net

If you’re planning on using librenms I would suggest using Oxidized as you can integrate it into librenms. > On Apr 14, 2019, at 8:00 AM, fsg-public-request(a)lists.keekles.org wrote: > > Send FSG-public mailing list submissions to > fsg-public(a)lists.keekles.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.keekles.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fsg-public > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > fsg-public-request(a)lists.keekles.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > fsg-public-owner(a)lists.keekles.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of FSG-public digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Tampa AC has been replaced
by Bryan Fields 04 Apr '19

04 Apr '19

Ryan and I made a trip up the the Tampa site yesterday and replaced the AC unit. We've now got a full ton on AC up in the room, the AC just fit into the 24" open space we had. https://i.imgur.com/Bx73GYF.jpg We also replaced the PA fan on the 224.280 repeater. We got 3 years on the prior AC unit, which was used, it was installed in April 10, 2016 right after we moved in there. 12k BTU's should be good enough as we're in a 10x30 300 sqft shelter. We still need a solution to monitor the temp up there, perhaps into SNMP for alarming. If anyone has an idea for this please let us know. 73's -- Bryan Fields, W9CR Florida Simulcast Group, Inc.
