Autumn 2018 Network Automation Course Starts on September 18th
When the Spring 2018 Building Network Automation Solutions online course started, we didn’t know whether we’d run another course in 2018, so we offered engineers who wanted to get an early start Believer price.
The wait is over: the autumn 2018 course starts on September 18th. The schedule of the live sessions is already online, and we also have the first guest speakers. We’ll announce them in early June at which time you will no longer be able to get the Enthusiast price, so register ASAP.

How to manage access in a web-scale data center
One of the consistent questions that arises during the web-scale transition is the impact of managed access to networking infrastructure. How do we take traditional management techniques and adapt them to the new operational paradigm of web-scale networking, where automation drives the majority of changes and the infrastructure is treated as a holistic entity rather than node-by-node?
Local privileges
In the most basic way, we can migrate existing workflows to the new paradigm. Though inefficient, the old way of doing things still works with the new web-scale paradigm. The easiest way to do this is to restrict access to your switches using local privileges. In Linux, users are controlled using the adduser command, and the permissions for that user are controlled using the chmod commands.
A list of all users is stored in the /etc/passwd folder of Linux:
cumulus@leaf02:~$ cat /etc/passwd root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/usr/sbin/nologin bin:x:2:2:bin:/bin:/usr/sbin/nologin sys:x:3:3:sys:/dev:/usr/sbin/nologin sync:x:4:65534:sync:/bin:/bin/sync games:x:5:60:games:/usr/games:/usr/sbin/nologin man:x:6:12:man:/var/cache/man:/usr/sbin/nologin lp:x:7:7:lp:/var/spool/lpd:/usr/sbin/nologin mail:x:8:8:mail:/var/mail:/usr/sbin/nologin news:x:9:9:news:/var/spool/news:/usr/sbin/nologin uucp:x:10:10:uucp:/var/spool/uucp:/usr/sbin/nologin proxy:x:13:13:proxy:/bin:/usr/sbin/nologin www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/var/www:/usr/sbin/nologin backup:x:34:34:backup:/var/backups:/usr/sbin/nologin list:x:38:38:Mailing List Manager:/var/list:/usr/sbin/nologin irc:x:39:39:ircd:/var/run/ircd:/usr/sbin/nologin gnats:x:41:41:Gnats Bug-Reporting System (admin):/var/lib/gnats:/usr/sbin/nologin nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin systemd-timesync:x:100:103:systemd Time Synchronization,,,:/run/systemd:/bin/false systemd-network:x:101:104:systemd Network Management,,,:/run/systemd/netif:/bin/false systemd-resolve:x:102:105:systemd Resolver,,,:/run/systemd/resolve:/bin/false systemd-bus-proxy:x:103:106:systemd Bus Proxy,,,:/run/systemd:/bin/false frr:x:104:109:Frr routing suite,,,:/var/run/frr/:/bin/false ntp:x:105:110::/home/ntp:/bin/false uuidd:x:106:111::/run/uuidd:/bin/false messagebus:x:107:112::/var/run/dbus:/bin/false sshd:x:108:65534::/var/run/sshd:/usr/sbin/nologin snmp:x:109:114::/var/lib/snmp:/usr/sbin/nologin dnsmasq:x:110:65534:dnsmasq,,,:/var/lib/misc:/bin/false _lldpd:x:111:115::/var/run/lldpd:/bin/false cumulus:x:1000:1000:cumulus,,,:/home/cumulus:/bin/bash

The Internet Society and African Union Commission Launch Personal Data Protections Guidelines for Africa
The Internet Society and the African Union Commission (AUC) today launched the Personal Data Protection Guidelines for Africa (“the Guidelines”) at the Africa Internet Summit in Dakar, Senegal. Grounded on principles of privacy, trust and responsible use, the Guidelines introduced another step in securing the African Internet infrastructure and emphasized the notion that good data protection strengthens trust in online services and contributes to sustainable growth of the digital economy. This timely development follows a recent massive privacy breach at Facebook and the much talked about Cambridge Analytica saga which mishandled the data of millions of Facebook users, including many on the African continent.
Speaking at the launch event, the Director for Africa Regional Bureau, Dawit Bekele, applauded Senegal for becoming the first country in Africa to show leadership and commitment towards building a solid information society. “Africa – indeed like the rest of the world – considers personal data protection as key in securing the Internet infrastructure and Senegal has shown us the way by being the first African country to ratify the Malabo Convention.”
The African digital economy is continuing to grow, with the potential to reach $300 billion or 10% of GDP of the African economy Continue reading
