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. Virtualization.

Sjors Robroek describes his nested NSX-T lab that also includes some virtualized network equipment (virtualized Arista switches). I wouldn’t take this information as gospel, but here’s a breakdown of some of the IPv6 support available in VMware NSX. Virtualization. Servers/Hardware. Here’s a great way.

Michael Kashin has a great article on how Open Virtual Network (OVN, part of the Open vSwitch project) implements virtual networks in OpenStack. Simon Leinen (from SWITCHengines) explains their use of IPv6 with OpenStack. Flatpak is a (relatively) new application packaging/sandboxing mechanism for Linux applications.

Want/need to better understand IPv6? Virtualization. Via TecMint, James Kiarie explains how to use VirtualBox VMs on KVM in Linux. If you work with TextFSM templates (see here for more information), then you might also like this post on writing a vim syntax plugin for TextFSM templates. Denise Fishburne has you covered.

In this post, I’ve gathered links to posts about networking, virtualization, Docker, containers, Linux, configuration management, and all kinds of other cool stuff. Jason Anderson has a nice post on using SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization) to expose Docker containers. Welcome to Technology Short Take #53. Networking.

Welcome to Technology Short Take #51, another collection of posts and links about key data center technologies like networking, virtualization, cloud management, and applications/operating systems. I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned Open Virtual Network (OVN) here before, as I’m pretty jazzed about the work going on with this project.

Typically, the people who manage BIND DNS servers day to day are network administrators or system administrators who are comfortable in Linux/UNIX. While each view is typically treated as a separate virtual server, in recent years BIND has added features to make it easier to share data between views. Benefits of Using BIND.

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.
