A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away, I went to school to learn art and illustration. In those long ago days, folks in my art and illustration classes would sometimes get into a discussion about what, precisely, to do with an art degree. My answer was, ultimately, to turn it into a career building slides and illustrations in the field of network engineering. And I’m only half joking.
The discussion around the illustration board in those days was whether it was better to become an art teacher, or to focus just on the art and illustration itself. The two sides went at it hammer and tongs over weeks at a time. My only contribution to the discussion was this: even if you want to be the ultimate in the art world, a fine artist, you must still have a subject. While much of modern art might seem to be about nothing much at all, it has always seemed, to me, that art must be about something.

Easier encryption? Google engineers have created a new encryption regime that can run on cheap and underpowered smartphones, Wired.com reports. The Google effort takes established cryptographic tools and implements them in a more efficient way.
Email encryption required: The EU’s GDPR privacy regulation requires encryption at least at the transport layer for email, according to a recent ruling by Germany’s data protection authority. The ruling also suggests that transport layer encryption may not be enough for sensitive personal information, TechDirt says.
Encryption proposal questioned: India’s proposal to require tech companies to hand over encrypted communications is “not possible,” WhatsApp has said. The proposed rules are “not possible today given the end-to-end encryption that we provide and it would require us to re-architect WhatsApp, leading to a different product, one that would not be fundamentally private,” WhatsApp said in a Financial Times story.
Federal action: The U.S. White House is planning to take executive action to promote research and development related to Artificial Intelligence, advanced manufacturing, quantum computing, and 5G wireless technology, Reuters reports. There’s some concern that the U.S. is losing ground to countries like China.

What would be Cisco's motivation to call for social justice publicly. Logically there must be reasons.

I am performing some site maintenance in conjunction with a move to a new VPS server. (Thank you Hetzner (some irony may be involved)).
Hopefully everything should be reachable, but some minor UI tweaks may occur.
Thanks for understanding.

Last week Howard Marks completed the Hyperconverged Infrastructure Deep Dive trilogy covering smaller HCI players (including Cisco’s Hyperflex) and explaining the intricacies of costing and licensing HCI solutions.
On Thursday I finally managed to start the long-overdue Data Center Interconnects update. The original webinar was recorded in 2011, and while the layer-3 technologies haven’t changed much (with LISP still being mostly a solution in search of a problem), most of the layer-2 technologies I described at that time vanished, with OTV being a notable exception. Keep that in mind the next time your favorite $vendor starts promoting another wonderful technology.
You can get access to both webinars with standard ipSpace.net subscription.

In our last post we covered the basic setup and configuration of ExaBGP. While we were able to make use of ExaBGP for dynamic route advertisement, it wasn’t able to help us when it came to actually programming the servers routing table. In this post, I want to show you how you can leverage ExaBGP from a more programatic perspective. We’ll start by handling route advertisement to our peer and then tackle reading and processing received route updates. We’ll also start using another Python module (pyroute2) to program the routing table of the bgp_server host so that it begins acting more like a normal router. Enough talk – let’s dive in!
Im going to assume you’re starting off at the end of the last post. So the first thing we need to do is clean up a couple of items. We’re not going to rely on the static route we provisioned so to clean that up we can simply reapply the netplan network configuration using the command sudo netplan apply
