I love using VIRL to do quick self-check of a config, personal education, and learning the behavior of particular features. I also love using the iTerm2 Terminal Emulator on the Mac. Unfortunately, it isn’t obvious how to make the two play well together. I have had to re-educate myself on this over and over again as I get new computers, mess up my settings and do certain upgrades. I’m pretty sure I copied some of this configuration and the script that I will share from somewhere. So if this looks familiar, reach out to me and I will link back to the source.
This post meant to both share the config and caveats with others as well as to document the nuances for my future reference. In short, there is a standard configuration and a custom configuration for the terminal settings in VIRL’s VMMaestro. These are found in “VMMaestro -> Preferences.”
These settings control whether the built-in (VMMaestro’s client) is used or an external terminal client should be used. I much prefer an external client and iTerm2 is my current client of choice. To eliminate the need of manually launching and connecting, I have customized the Applescript code found below. Continue reading

The July 2017 issue of the IETF Journal is now online at http://www.ietfjournal.org/journal-issues/july-2017/. With IETF 99 in Prague just over one week away, this is the perfect time to get caught up on what's been happening in the world of Internet standards lately.
Global cloud security spend predicted to hit $3.5B by 2021.
The company is likely an acquisition target.
China Telecom and Ericsson launch an IoT platform; QualiTest Group acquires Experior Group.
Nick McKeown helped SnapRoute get off the ground.
Kubernetes may have the most users, but it's not considered the de facto standard.
Whitebox, if you aren’t familiar with it, is the idea of separating the network operating system and switching hardware into commodity elements that can be purchased separately. There was a good overview on whitebox in this StubArea51.net article a while back if you’re looking for some background.
Lately, in my work for IP ArchiTechs, I’ve had a number of clients interested in deploying IP Infusion with either Dell, Agema or Edge Core switches to build an MPLS core architecture in lieu of an L2 ring deployment via ERPs. Add to that a production deployment of Cumulus Linux and Edge Core that I’ve been working on building out and it’s been a great year for whitebox.
There are a number of articles written that extoll the virtues of whitebox for web scale companies, large service providers and big enterprises. However, not much has been written on how whitebox can help smaller Tier 2 and 3 ISPs – especially Wireless ISPs (WISPs) and Fiber ISPs (FISPs).
And the line between those types of ISPs gets more blurry by the day as WISPs are heavily getting into fiber and FISPs are Continue reading
