Connected Power: An Emerging Cybersecurity Priority
When leveraging connected power devices, network managers should consider several factors that can offer assurance that those devices were built with cybersecurity as a top priority.Feedback: Docker Networking Deep Dive
While the pundits keeps telling me Docker is dead (looking at its documentation I would say they’re right) and Kubernetes it the way to go (yay!), some people still have to deal with Docker networking, and at least some of them found the Docker Networking Deep Dive webinar useful. Here’s a recent review:
You can scroll over internet pages as long as you can, you will rarely find this kind of specialized knowledge. This is the next level in term of knowledge about Docker.
If you belong to the “Kubernetes will rule the world” camp, we have you covered as well: Stuart Charlton created a phenomenal Kubernetes Networking Deep Dive webinar (approximately half of it is already accessible with free subscription).

Full Stack Journey 074: Going The Distance – What Running Can Teach Us About Careers
On today's Full Stack Podcast, Scott is joined by Krithika Chandramouli, a software engineer at Meta, to discuss how the lessons she learned while preparing to run her first-ever half-marathon also apply to careers. They dive into the relationship between consistency and one's progress toward a goal, and how understanding the "why" behind a goal can help motivate you.

Adding Stuff to Netbox with Pynetbox
As a warning to everyone, I am not a developer. I am a network engineer who is trying to do some automation stuff. Some of what I’m doing sounds logical to me, but I would not trust my own opinions for production work. I’m sure you can find a Slack channel or Mastodon instance with people who can tell you how to do things properly.
I think there’s a theme in the last few posts. I can’t quite put my finger on it, though. 
We’ve talked about querying Netbox, but it’s pretty useless without data actually in it. Let’s look at how to get stuff in there using pynetbox.
Here’s the environment I’m running. All this code is in my Github repo.
Python : 3.9.10
Pynetbox : 7.0.0
Netbox version : 3.4.2 (Docker)
Adding sites is pretty logical first step in a new Netbox install. They don’t have any required fields that have to be created first, so let’s start there. I’ve got a YAML file called sites.yml that contains the site data I want to import. Here’s what that looks like.
### sites.yml
