Today's IPv6 Buzz podcast discusses global IPv6 adoption strategy with Pete Sclafani of 6connect, a global network automation platform for service providers and enterprises. Topics covered include how to overcome fear of change, closing knowledge gaps around IPv6, understanding how IPv6 affects business processes as much as technology processes, and more.

During Networking Field Day 22 last week, a lot the questions that were directed at the presenters had to do with their automation systems. One term kept coming up that I was embarrassed to admit that I’d never heard of. Closed-loop automation is the end goal for these systems. But what is closed-loop automation? And why is it so important. I decided to do a little research and find out.
To understand closed-loop systems, you have to understand open-loop systems first. Thankfully, those are really simple. Open-loop systems are those where the output isn’t directly affected by the control actions of the system. It’s a system where you’re going to get the output no matter how you control it. The easiest example is a clothes dryer. There are a multitude of settings that you can choose for a clothes dryer, including the timing of the cycle. But no matter what, the dryer will stop at the end of the cycle. There’s no sensor in a basic clothes dryer that senses the moisture level of the clothes and acts accordingly.
Open-loop systems are stable and consistent. Every time you turn on the dryer, it will run until it finishes. Continue reading

Cloudflare Access secures internal applications without the hassle, slowness or user headache of a corporate VPN. Access brings the experience we all cherish, of being able to access web sites anywhere, any time from any device, to the sometimes dreary world of corporate applications. Teams can integrate the single sign-on (SSO) option, like Okta or AzureAD, that they’ve chosen to use and in doing so make on-premise or self-managed cloud applications feel like SaaS apps.
However, teams consist of more than just the internal employees that share an identity provider. Organizations work with partners, freelancers, and contractors. Extending access to external users becomes a constant chore for IT and security departments and is a source of security problems.
Cloudflare Access removes that friction by simultaneously integrating with multiple identity providers, including popular services like Gmail or GitHub that do not require corporate subscriptions. External users login with these accounts and still benefit from the same ease-of-use available to internal employees. Meanwhile, administrators avoid the burden in legacy deployments that require onboarding and offboarding new accounts for each project.
We are excited to announce two new integrations that make it even easier for organizations to work securely with third parties. Starting Continue reading

Considering VMware’s enrapturement with vMotion the following news (reported by Salman Naqvi in a comment to my blog post) was clearly inevitable:
I was surprised to learn that LIVE vMotion is supported between on-premise and Vmware on AWS Cloud
What’s more interesting is how did they manage to do it?

Using Cluster API allows users to create new Kubernetes clusters easily using manifests that define the desired state of the new cluster (also referred to as a workload cluster; see here for more terminology). But how does one go about accessing this new workload cluster once it’s up and running? In this post, I’ll show you how to retrieve the Kubeconfig file for a new workload cluster created by Cluster API.
(By the way, there’s nothing new or revolutionary about the information in this post; I’m simply sharing it to help folks who may be new to Cluster API.)
Once CAPI has created the new workload cluster, it will also create a new Kubeconfig for accessing this cluster. This Kubeconfig will be stored as a Secret (a specific type of Kubernetes object). In order to use this Kubeconfig to access your new workload cluster, you’ll need to retrieve the Secret, decode it, and then use it with kubectl.
First, you can see the secret by running kubectl get secrets in the namespace where your new workload cluster was created. If the name of your workload cluster was “workload-cluster-1”, then the name of the Secret created by Cluster API would Continue reading
