Interop Liveblog: IPv6 Microsegmentation

Scott Lowe

This session was titled “IPv6 Microsegmentation,” and the speaker was Ivan Pepelnjak. The session starts with a discussion of the problems found in Layer 2 IPv6 networks. Note that some of these attacks are also common to IPv4 and are not necessarily unique to IPv6. Can we use shared Layer 3 IPv6 subnets?

Technology Short Take #57

Scott Lowe

Tor Anderson has an article on using IPv6 for network boot using UEFI and iPXE. We all know that security is more than just a host-based firewall, but a host-based firewall can be part of an overall security strategy. Welcome to Technology Short Take #57. I hope you find something useful here! Networking. Larry Smith Jr.

Technology Short Take #77

Scott Lowe

Simon Leinen (from SWITCHengines) explains their use of IPv6 with OpenStack. Vivek Gite over at nixCraft explains how to use ufw (Uncomplicated Firewall) on Ubuntu to limit SSH connections. The post is a bit geeky but quite informative, and worth reading if SSH bastion hosts are a key part of your architecture. Read this post.)

I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before; if I have, please forgive me.
