I'm still building a 30'x10' patio. It has been the work of three weekends so far. Hopefully finish up next one.

Post Pics!

I'll try and actually take some. I should've gotten a before.

Looks like the MS series supports the DHCP relay setting: https://community.meraki.com/t5/Switching/need-to-configure-DHCP-IP-helper-address-on-VLAN-in-MS-switch/td-p/22806.

I can't use that relay setting since I still need dhcp on the 250.254 network

If you're using some automation you could push the resolution for specific targets to the hosts file on the end points.

@FATeknollogee said in Network routing question:

Does 250.254 have 235.235 in its upstream list or have a secondary zone for 235.x?

No, 250.254 doesn't have a DNS server, just services provided by the dhcp router.

I am confused. Either way, does the DNS server in the subnet where your DNS service is working have the DNS server for the non functioning subnet in its upstream list or a secondary zone for that subnet?

250.254 is my Meraki router (so no "standalone" DNS server)
Not sure if I can add a secondary zone

You can use an IP helper for a Meraki: https://documentation.meraki.com/MX/DHCP/Configuring_DHCP_Relay.

@dafyre said in Network routing question:

What is your machine set to use for DNS server right now?

It gets it's DNS settings from the DHCP server.
10.250.250.254
10.50.235.235

Does 250.254 have 235.235 in its upstream list or have a secondary zone for 235.x?

@FATeknollogee said in Network routing question:

@Pete-S The desktop is connected to vlan10 (my op says that, I think)

Ok, I misunderstood your OP.

@FATeknollogee said in Network routing question:

@Pete-S I want to open up a browser & type in the name of a computer on vlan10 & have the traffic flow through.
Right now, the traffic tries to go through the gateway on 1.1.1.1

If an address is placed outside of your subnet due to the mask, the traffic has to go to your default gateway. If you want a different gateway you would have to do default routes on your clients.

Just signed a litter accepting a promotion effective 9/22. Not bad for a Friday

What kind of litter was it?

kittens

Litterally?

I don't think so

I think he meant letter.

I was just continuing the pun.

I'm going.

As are @pchiodo and @Dominica

Those parking garages are in for a rough time.

If you have access to the business account you might have better success working with an account rep. Getting someone whose success/pay is based on you remaining a customer could have more impact then going through tech support.

@JaredBusch I'd like you to give in to your urge to stab me in the jugular. 35.5 hours of being awake with no end in sight

At some point you become more harm to the efforts than good... you just need to walk away and sleep.. 6 hours.. then get back at it.

It has been proven via science* that the longer you work on a project without sleep that the amount of fukitol in your bloodstream increases.

@Dashrender said in Weekend Plans:

Plans - OK...
Saturday morning - the gym.
Saturday later morning drive to Luverne MN
Saturday afternoon - swim at the hotel
Saturday later afternoon - take pictures with fans as Dir Krennic
Saturday Evening - See Star Wars A New Hope on the big screen

You do realize that this means you'll have to post a picture of yourself as Dir Krennic now.

Poor APIs, everyone is always making fun of them.

@Kelly said in Figuring out what you want to do professionally:

How I think my peers are doing (social media syndrom

This one is tough because we tend to associate a lot of people as peers, and to some degree are correct. But, for example...

If you feel as a Linux Admin that a Windows Admin is a peer, you will likely always have one person that feels that they are "behind" on PowerShell and object scripting, and one that always feels that they are "behind" on text processing. But really, it's because they aren't direct peers. Sure, they are equals, but they aren't doing the exact same job.

Exactly why I refer to this as the Social Media syndrome. "Based on my perception of myself in relation to this narrow slice of what I see of you (not allowing for any context), I am not as good as you." Even two Windows Admins will not have the same sets of responsibilities and scope within their job. IT (and many other jobs) is full of "oughts". I ought to do more automation. I ought to have a <type> plan. I ought to have more documentation. I ought to understand this LOB software better. I ought... I have judged myself based on my oughts and other based on their successes. It is a deceptive, and ultimately destructive, perception.
