The CK Daily – A Simple Reminder of Hope
Good morning and Happy June!
For the next few weeks, I’m soaking up some time in the Florida Keys! I grew up always visiting my great-grandma here and now we get the joy of visiting and cherishing all of the sweet memories we have with her.
One of my favorite things about being here is being able to look in the water and see straight to the bottom. The water is always so clear! Every day we spend hours looking into the water, waiting on our next big find. Something I always hope to see is a manatee. My great-grandma would share so many stories about the manatee here coming in the boat basin and hanging around for a while. She even shared that they used to feed them lettuce and give them fresh water – and said they always loved it! Anyways, last night my husband and I were out sitting by the water, and we saw a manatee!
I can’t help but sometimes think signs from God come at the right times. This year has been so tough for our family. We’ve mourned the loss of two incredible people in our family and something as simple as seeing a manatee is such a simple reminder that there is hope.

Learning Center Article – LACP vs PAGP
When it comes to network design, there are usually multiple avenues to arrive at the same result. Any number of arrays can ultimately provide the network coverage you need, and there are always different protocols for managing and controlling networks.
A common technique that is used to increase throughput for Ethernet systems is link aggregation. This technique can increase effective transmission speeds while making a network more robust. There are a few ways to aggregate links, and two of the leading protocols are LACP and PAGP.
