IT internship, part 2

So these last couple weeks have been pretty busy.

We're migrating a lot of things from a company we just bought, which means we have to generate a lot of router scripts. Being that this would take a few centuries to do it manually, we have a script to generate the configs for us. It looks at an excel file to pull its information, so the task is just making sure everything in excel is right. This can be done by scanning over it yourself (time consuming and room for error) or by entering in really complicated formulas to do it for you. So that task fell to me, and I came up with some formulas (with help from an Excel forum to get me started) to make it easier. So now the configs are generated, which makes everything considerably easier.

We got a new network analyzer, so I've been poking around with that. And I can say I've worked with Network General Infinistream software, which is always a plus.

Next week I have Xng training. I don't remember if I mentioned this, but Xng is what we use to create work orders and it's also a database to track how things are physically connected together. That should be interesting. I'll let you know how it goes.
