Iterative feedback between users and developers, as well as good documentation, will help ensure workflow automation is successful.
The “everyone should be a programmer” crowd did a really good job of scaring network engineers (congratulations, just what we need!). Here’s a typical question I’m getting:
Do I need to be good in scripting to attend your automation course.
TL&DR: Absolutely not.
Read more ...In my previous blog (Fun in the Lab: FTDv & FMC – Install and Deploy) we deployed a FMC VM and a FTDv VM and ended the blog with the FTDv successfully added to the FMC.
Now? Now let’s add IP addressing for the FTDv and also set up routing protocol neighbor relationships. I learned what I am about to show you from my co-worker and friend, Keith Brister. So don’t thank me, thank Keith.
I tossed together a ~29 minute YouTube. Obviously you can watch the entire thing. Or… here you go for the big sections.
Done and Done. Easy Peasy!
This week is IETF 103 in Bangkok, Thailand, and we’re bringing you daily blog posts highlighting the topics of interest to us in the ISOC Internet Technology Team. Thursday actually represents the last day of the meeting this time, although there’s still several sessions to draw attention to.
SUIT is meeting first thing at 09.00 UTC+9. This is considering how the firmware of IoT devices can securely updated, and the architecture and information models for this will be discussed. There are three other drafts relating to manifest formats that are the meta-data describing the firmware images.
NOTE: If you are unable to attend IETF 103 in person, there are multiple ways to participate remotely.
DMM is the first of the afternoon sessions at 13.50 UTC+7, and there are several IPv6-related drafts under consideration. Proxy Mobile IPv6 extensions for Distributed Mobility Management proposes a solution whereby mobility sessions are anchored at the last IP hop router, whilst Segment Routing IPv6 for Mobile User Plane defines segment routing behaviour and applicability to the mobile user plane behaviour and defines the functions for that. There’s also three updated drafts on 5G implementations which may interest some.
To round off the week, there’s a choice Continue reading
