Yes, the article is slightly OpenStack-centric, but it still remains a very informative look at the different components of OVN and how OVN works. You might also be interested in an earlier article that outlines how to build and install OVN with OpenStack.). Simon Leinen (from SWITCHengines) explains their use of IPv6 with OpenStack.

This article contains some good information on IPv6 for those who are just starting to get more familiar with it, although toward the end it turns into a bit of an advertisement. Although Linux is often considered to be superior to Windows and macOS with regard to security, it is not without its own security flaws. Networking.

Denise Fishburne has a 7-part series on IPv6. Vivek Gite has instructions on how to install ffmepg with NVIDIA GPU acceleration. Nice to see that work on getting Linux up and running and fully functional on Apple’s proprietary M1 chips is progressing well. Networking. Operating Systems/Applications.

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.)

I wouldn’t take this information as gospel, but here’s a breakdown of some of the IPv6 support available in VMware NSX. The article supplies lots of useful information, but I really would’ve liked some concrete examples of how to glue these pieces together. Cody De Arkland shows you how. Servers/Hardware.

I highly recommend you read the entire post, but in short the five skills Matt recommends are software skills (which includes configuration management and software development tools like Git ), Linux, deep protocol knowledge, hypervisor and container networking, and IPv6. What does this mean? You’re welcome.

Tor Anderson has an article on using IPv6 for network boot using UEFI and iPXE. Good stuff if you’re interested in getting more details on how OVN is implementing new features like L3. This article provides a good introductory overview of Linux iptables commands for configuring host-based firewall rules on your Linux systems.
