Assessing the Current State of AI-driven Packet Analysis with VIAVI Watch here 👉 buff.ly/i4nLB65 @TechFieldDay.com @NetworkingNerd.net #CiscoLive25 #TFDx #AI #PacketAnalysis

The blog post reflects on Cisco Live 2025 in San Diego, highlighting pleasant weather and educational value but noting reduced experienced staff, less polished areas, and personal challenges with certification. #CiscoLive #TFDx

VIAVI presented at this year's #tfdx at #CiscoLive and included a review of what several LLMs do when you throw a pcap at them. runningoffatthemouth.com?p=1816

Me: I’m WFH today which is good because I’m on Sudafed (the good stuff you need to show ID for) and should be kept away from people because of that (and not just because I’m recovering from an illness).

Discover how VIAVI is using AI to revolutionize packet analysis, helping uncover hidden network issues faster. 🧠 🏃‍♂️ View here 👉 buff.ly/eXG1okV #VIAVI showed off how they use AI to boost packet analysis at Cisco Live 2025. @TechFIeldDay.com @NetworkingNerd.net #TFDx #CiscoLive25 #AI #Networking

Feeling well enough to day to do the usual stream of conscious post #CiscoLive blog post: runningoffatthemouth.com?p=1810 Theme? "It's not quite as good as it used to be."

Me: *croak croak croak* Erika: You should probably not talk for a while. Me: *wheezesigh*

Is Cisco Live Still The Place To Be I look back at Cisco Live 2025 from the social side.

I feel miserable. Coughing and sneezing and blowing my nose constantly. But no fever. Which you might think is good, but the nerd in me likes having an objective value to apply my miserableness to.

Doctor: You tested negative for everything. Probably just a virus we can’t test for. Give yourself 5-7 days. If not better by then or you get worse, we’ll give you an antibiotic.

Severe allergies or some version of Con Crud? I’ve been swabbed, so we’ll find out shortly. Nose exploded the minute I walked off the plane in Tampa. I blame the oak trees.

My sinuses are very unhappy to be back in Florida.

On the ground in Tampa. #CiscoLive is done for me.

Time for the hop to Houston. On plane 1. #CiscoLive

At the gate. Flight currently set to be six minutes late. Excited to see Erika and Obee. #CiscoLive

Almost done. Breakfast with friends at Mary Jane’s and then airport and home. #CiscoLive

there should be a consumer electronics review site called does it beep dot com and the sole criteria it uses to judge kitchen appliances, cars, washing machines, etc is whether it beeps at you and if so how annoying the beeps are

Missed my morning session. Found an acceptable replacement. #CiscoLive #NetVet

I’m awake but for the first time in my recollection, I’m going to miss a session due to sleeping in. #CiscoLive

“We don’t have a ‘number of 9s’ network. It has to work at 100% or an expensive piece of equipment ends up in the ocean.” Eric Peterson, Blue Origin. #CiscoLive
