So this gives breathing space.

Apparently you can't see the picture either, as it is a 2924 switch, not a router, so going under the interface and trying to put an IP on it would be futile since it is a layer 2 switch. Then of course is your issues with the encapsulation without a VLAN assuming you were trying to program it for a router. Also you would need a subinterface since you are using a trunk to the port. Then doing port security while apparently setting up a routed interface, very interesting indeed and you messed up the syntax as it should start with switchport. Your Cisco programming could use some polishing for sure, but I guess that is why I have a job.]]>Dec 1st 2009 10:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/
OK mate with your mighty Cisco knowledge, I guess in the internet we don't have only Grammar Nazis but also Cisco Config Nazis Associates/Professionals. (CCNA/P). But you obviously you FAIL to see a joke. At least lot's people in my work had a good laugh with this and i don't even brake a sweat or worry for likes like you that can come and criticize a JOKE.]]>Dec 2nd 2009 4:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/
A poorly constructed joke. Also, it is break, not brake. Brake is something you would do in your car. Apparently the people at your work are equally inept when it comes to Cisco. Also, "worry for likes like you"? I truly hope this was a mistake and you didn't read that in your head and think that was even close to a proper sentence. I'm not even sure what you were trying to write...

I'm sure butchering things is frowned upon in any field, which is why you get people correcting grammar and other mistakes they see. I'm sure if you made a stupid joke around the pretense that the world was flat or some other silliness, you would get someone correcting you as well. How about you just say you were wrong and move on?]]>Dec 2nd 2009 7:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/
Yay, Mighty Rugglebum666 strikes again with a Grammar Nazi reference again, tell me mate is English your primary language? Because mine isn't. If you want an equally level syntax/grammar try to learn a difficult language for once, like Greek that i know and THEN let's see who can speak more fluently. Before you making ignorant and stupid comments, like you do, perhaps you should check the video of the guy that made this device to just see in your first reply your first mistake.
I don't want to continue to correct you with all your mistakes in your first reply because i am not that *** like you are and try to be a down to the bottom nerd that tries to look smarter than others while he is sad.

Tell me in your "job" does anyone speak to you or your are the guy that sits in the corner that even your manager doesn't know your existence? Perhaps the only people that talk to you at work are the ones that are the same as you arrogant and ignorant.

By the way to try to look smarter with a "666" devilish number in both of your nicknames, is beyond hope and really funny. What you age are? Or you maturity stopped when you were 16/18 years old?
To be honest I enjoy that you get even angrier as this continues, i really do :)
Whatever i have to configure an ASA box. I can't spend too much time for this now :)

I notice that the dumber someone is, the more offended they are by someone correcting them. How dare I give you the proper answer to something that you presume to be true. Shall we all just let everyone stay ignorant so as not to offend the small minded like yourself? Ad hominem is a fallacious argument, maybe you should refrain from it. I'm sure you will try to say I used ad hominem in my small minded remark, so to nip that right now, I didn't use that to link to a premise or the validity of said premise, so it doesn't fall into that fallacy.

Let me know when you grow up to accept criticism and be corrected. Also let me know when you can actually point out things that are wrong, rather than just playing the Red Herring game and have a hissy fit over a bad joke.]]>Dec 4th 2009 10:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/Dec 1st 2009 10:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/diy-cat-feeder-now-enabled-by-a-cisco-switch-streams-food-and-v/

Apparently you have never priced out a 2924 switch, they are like $50 or less in most places. ]]>Dec 1st 2009 10:47PM
