High-speed 100G Ethernet has migrated out of the data center and into enterprise distribution closets, but with no auto-negotiation and Forward Error Correction masking silent degradation, links can appear perfectly healthy right up until they fail. Presenting at Networking Field Day 41, NetAlly VP of Product Thomas Doumas introduces the LinkRunner 100G, a handheld tester built to help enterprise teams demystify complex lane configurations, run line-rate validation, and eliminate the costly habit of boneyarding functional transceivers on guesswork. 👉 Watch presentations from NetAlly and more on our website or YouTube channel! @TechFieldDay @NetworkingNerd @NetAlly #NFD41 #NetAlly #NetworkTesting #100G #NetworkEngineering

AIOps has evolved into agentic AI for IT operations, but deploying autonomous systems safely across enterprise environments has never been an easy task. Alastair Cooke stresses that having a "human in the loop" is essential—especially during the early validation phases—to verify that agents deliver genuine incident remediation rather than triggering fresh complications. Whether applied to core business workflows or infrastructure operations, the priority must be choosing the right model and governing it safely. @TechFieldDay @DemitasseNZ @Broadcom @VMware @Commvault @SelectorAI #TFDTakeaways #CFD26 #CloudFieldDay #AgenticAI #FinOps
