Another fun one I came across the other day while looking through IOS features is Hoot-n-Holler. (It's a telephony thing.)

"Dying gasp" always made me laugh

mine for the day...Gratuitous ARP

hehe PHP still cracks me up.... I love saying penultimate-hop-pop...

By the way it's not a word... it's a phrase lol ;p

I think the security phrases are the best for the certain types of attacks...

Man-in-the-Middle
Smurf Attack
Footprinting

Phrase for today 'Aggressive Mode UDLD' - makes the switch sound all tough and stuff..

rakem

Quantization

Bert McGert

I've always found this hilarious:

show

CChN

Nothing better then explaining simultaneous two-way communication and dropping a "full duplex" into the conversation.

Mrock4

to make things neater...

sh ip int br | excl ass

redwarrior

The routing stuff always sounds dirty...Not So Stubby Areas...<snicker>

I have a bad habit of typing 'show proc cpu ****' instead of 'sh proc cpu hist'

tsupid s!

typing too fast for my own good!

Netwurk

My 9 year old (an x-men fan) asked about this one

Sw3550#sh mls qos interface fastEthernet 0/7
FastEthernet0/7
trust state: trust cos
trust mode: trust cos
COS override: dis
default COS: 0
DSCP Mutation Map: Default DSCP Mutation Map
Trust device: cisco-phone

So I guess there are mutants in my 3550?

The youngest boy (of 5 kids) is the first to show interest in IT so of course I am proud

yep... I still laugh at my typos as well...... It's always good to have a bit of humour when configuring\troubleshooting...

Wow! Six kids under 11. That must be a challenge. Of course my grandmother had 12 kids, so what do I know?

As for me and my wife, our youngest is 9, oldest is in his 20's

And yes we are done!!!

Getting back on topic, I'll go with the command udld port aggressive

My fiber cables are afraid of those ports!

kryolla

Rack1SW4# sh ip int brie | ex unass

SrAtechie

hehehe... One of the younger guys typed in "sh ip into brief" while looking for a blocked port. I asked him if he needed to go home to change or if he was going to go commando the rest of the day.

@ cowood2676 & Netwurk: I've got a little bit of catching up to do. I'm expecting baby #4 in June/July. The oldest is turning 10 this year. I think I can muster the cahones (literally and figuratively) for one or maybe two more.

My favorite today - epoch

While it may not be a strictly CCNP term, it's a darn cool word to try to use in a conversation. I think I will be referring to my lunch break as my "lunch epoch" today!
