Recently, I have started using Proxmox as a hypervisor in my home lab. In this post I will show you how to provision Proxmox guest VMs using Terraform. I use this method to deploy about 20 VMs across 3 Proxmox hosts in my home lab. The following software was used in this post. Proxmox...continue reading
In this week's Network Break we discuss how an Israeli spyware maker ran afoul of the US government, why Ericsson is dropping $6.2 billion in cash for Vonage, new IPv6 subnets available in AWS, and more tech news.

Today on the Tech Bytes podcast we’re talking about data center fabrics and BGP EVPN with sponsor Pluribus Networks. A BGP EVPN deployment can be a heavy lift, but Pluribus is here to talk about how it can simplify and automate this process.

Cloudflare Radar launched as part of last year’s Birthday Week. We described it as a “newspaper for the Internet”, that gives “any digital citizen the chance to see what’s happening online [which] is part of our pursuit to help build a better, more informed, Internet”.
Since then, we have made considerable strides, including adding dedicated pages to cover how key events such as the UEFA Euro 2020 Championship and the Tokyo Olympics shaped Internet usage in participating countries, and added a Radar section for interactive deep-dive reports on topics such as DDoS.
Today, Radar has four main sections:
Cloudflare’s global network spans more than 250 cities in over 100 countries. Because of this, we have the unique ability to see both macro and micro trends happening online, including insights on how traffic is flowing around the world or what type of attacks are prevalent in a certain country.
Radar Maps will make this information even richer Continue reading
Have you ever wanted to compare the operational state of a bunch of network devices between two specific times? Not only if the interfaces are up or down, but the number and status of BGP peers, the number of prefixes received, the number of entries into a MAC-address table, etc? This is something quite laborious to do with classical NMS or Do-It-Yourself scripts. And this is where pyATS can become a real asset. Here are my first steps with pyATS: Network Test & Automation Solution. What is pyATS? pyATS (pronounced…

The idea behind this certification track is to promote the DevOps mindset and culture in the traditional network engineering and to give the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills for engineers to start developing, maintaining and supporting network automation in Cisco Networks.

This Lab exam allows the one to earn the Expert level certification, provided the individual has already passed the theoretical exam DevCore (350-901 Developing Applications using Cisco Core Platforms and APIs). The expert level certification from Cisco is often very attractive for networking engineers as it generally well-respected across the industry and acts as a guideline of what engineer at a certain level is expected to know. The DevNet certification is yet relatively young and finding its path, as it steps in the area where it is competing with some Continue reading
