Build Your Own NOC
Geminus writes "Ever wanted to build a cheap NOC but had difficulty explaining tech stuff to bean counting managers? Here's the basics on building one for under two grand. Makes for a pretty good dog-n-pony show, and proves useful too! Damn, I want to be an Armchair Network Operations Center General."
NOC=Nitrous Oxide Computing.
I guess you can build your own NOC, but if you don't have enough bandwidth, you can't teach others how to do it.
There have been 4 comments so far and the story is already slashdotted!

I was part of a company that wanted to branch into network management for others
problem was, to sell your services as a NOC, you have to already have it built, which we didn't have...we had a bunch of fake looking tools, though...
where was this two years ago when I needed it...LOL

Just add an LCD projector and I can play a 3d shooter on the big screen while keeping track of network packets.
It must have been a *really* cheap NOC!
The NOC advisory "Your first Monitor should be watching CNN or the weather channel"
Change that to Slashdot, Kuro5in, TheRegister, ThtOnion or something else. No CNN please.... if you have any sense of self-esteem, that is.
