Express route is a great way to get some private routing into your Azure space. Larger organizations may implement the peering themselves with a Cloud Exchange provider like Equinix. Smaller organizations may utilize a middle man who handles the peering on behalf of them. A good example is…
Comments closedI still haven’t ran into much need for automating network tasks. In fact if I’m going to do much in that realm it’s probably going to be in Cloud platforms, not on iron in a rack. However, let’s say I wanted to block some inbound IPs to resources behind an…
Comments closedThis one has been a long time coming, I’ve been trying to get to this for over a month. It’s small on work but big on ideas. The Push for Encryption There incoming tide is pushing hard on everyone to encrypt all traffic on the web. I think it’s great…

2 CommentsSince upgrading to Proxmox 5, I’ve had very little visibility into my server’s health. HPE hasn’t released packages for debian stretch (proxmox 5) and really for detailed information, those packages are my only choice. I only care about the RAID array however, and after poking around I found that the…
1,099 CommentsThis is a quicky. I’ve been very busy here, been studying hard for the linux+ and trying my best to get as good as I possibly can. I’ve tipped a point to where progress is now quick (relatively) as I think my foundation is solid. I’m excited to add it…
