I wouldn’t take this information as gospel, but here’s a breakdown of some of the IPv6 support available in VMware NSX. Here’s an interesting article on the role that virtualization is playing in the network functions virtualization (NFV) space now that ARM hardware is growing increasingly powerful. Servers/Hardware.

In this post, I’ve gathered links to posts about networking, virtualization, Docker, containers, Linux, configuration management, and all kinds of other cool stuff. Here’s a nice article on using Ansible with Arista EOS. If you haven’t read Brent’s article on building network tools with Docker , I highly recommend it.

As usual, I gathered an odd collection of links and articles from around the web on key data center technologies and trends. Michael Ryom has a nice (but short) article on using Log Insight along with a NetFlow proxy to help provide more detailed visibility into traffic flows between VMs on NSX logical networks. Networking.

Tor Anderson has an article on using IPv6 for network boot using UEFI and iPXE. Kirk Byers has a helpful article that provides some suggestions and guidelines for how to make your network automation/network scripts become more than just your own personal hobby at work. I highly recommend this article. Networking.

I have here for your reading pleasure an eclectic collection of links and articles from around the web, focusing on data center-related technologies. It tells me that some skills—specifically, Linux, automation/configuration management, software development concepts—are going to be essential for all new IT pros in the near future.

Want/need to better understand IPv6? This is truly an information-dense article, and if working with the AWS API Gateway falls into your job responsibilities then this is probably a good post to read. This article by Vlad Ionescu on EKS DNS at scale is a great read, well worth your time if you work with Kubernetes.

I’m not sure if this falls here or into the “Cloud Computing/Cloud Computing” category, but Shannon McFarland—fellow co-conspirator with the Denver OpenStack Meetup group—has a nice article describing some design and deployment considerations for IPv6 in the OpenStack Kilo release. VXLAN overlay networks between AWS and GCE?

Vincent Bernat has a really in-depth article on IPv4 route lookup on Linux (and one on IPv6 route lookup as well). Ivan Pepelnjak has a great article that tries to get to the kernel of truth in the middle of the intent-based networking hype. Here’s hoping you find something useful! Networking. RIP Solaris.

As usual, here’s my random collection of links, articles, and thoughts about various data center technologies. Charles Min-Cheng Chan has a write-up on using IPv6 in Mininet. PowerShell on Cumulus Linux on a network switch? Someone pointed me toward this article on using Sophos UTM for remote access to their home lab.

Wireguard, if you’re not familiar, is a relatively new solution that is baked into recent Linux kernels. Since the configuration of the clients and the servers is largely the same (especially since both client and server are Linux), I haven’t separated out the two configurations. There is also support for other OSes.)

So we have far less users for Mac and Linux than we have on Windows. Vamosi: Most antivirus products are found on Windows, much less so on Mac and Linux. I have used senses to report on vulnerable open SSL implementations for my Heartbleed articles. ipv6 is designed to overcome the problems of ipv4 address exhaustion.
