MLAG Deep Dive: Layer-2 Flooding
In the previous blog post of the MLAG Technology Deep Dive series, we explored the intricacies of layer-2 unicast forwarding. Now let’s focus on layer-2 BUM1 flooding functionality of an MLAG system.
Our network topology will have two switches and five hosts, some connected to a single switch. That’s not a good idea in an MLAG environment, but even if you have a picture-perfect design with everything redundantly connected, you will have to deal with it after a single link failure.

Who Will Build Europe’s First Exascale Supercomputer – And With What, And Why?
Exascale supercomputing is just as important to Europe as it is to the United States and China, but each of these geopolitical regions on Earth has its own way of developing architectures, funding their development and production, and figuring out where the best HPC centers are to host such machines to maximize their effectiveness. …

Cloudflare Zaraz launches new privacy features in response to French CNIL standards
Last week, the French national data protection authority (the Commission Nationale de l'informatique et des Libertés or “CNIL”), published guidelines for what it considers to be a GDPR-compliant way of loading Google Analytics and similar marketing technology tools. The CNIL published these guidelines following notices that the CNIL and other data protection authorities issued to several organizations using Google Analytics stating that such use resulted in impermissible data transfers to the United States. Today, we are excited to announce a set of features and a practical step-by-step guide for using Zaraz that we believe will help organizations continue to use Google Analytics and similar tools in a way that will help protect end user privacy and avoid sending EU personal data to the United States. And the best part? It takes less than a minute.
Enter Cloudflare Zaraz.
The new Zaraz privacy features
What we are releasing today is a new set of privacy features to help our customers enhance end user privacy. Starting today, on the Zaraz dashboard, you can apply the following configurations:
- Remove URL query parameters: when toggled-on, Zaraz will remove all query parameters from a URL that is reported to a third-party server. It will turn

Internal Network Security Mistakes to Avoid
Network security begins at home. Here's how to effectively secure threats from within your organization.Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform on Microsoft Azure – Network Access – blog #2
Thank you to Hicham Mourad and Scott Harwell for co-authoring this blog.
Introduction
In this blog series, we will continue discussing the deployment of Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform on Microsoft Azure.
The first blog covered the deployment process as well as how to access a Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform on Azure deployment that was deployed using the “Public” access option.
This blog we’ll cover how to access the managed application when it’s deployed using the “Private” access option.
Connecting to Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform on Microsoft Azure
There are three ways you can access Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform on Azure if you selected “Private” access.
- An Azure hosted virtual machine (VM)
- Azure VPN or Direct Connect
- SSH Tunnel
Let’s assume that you have already configured network peering between the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform on Azure deployment, on the Azure network and your existing Azure Virtual Networks. Network peering is an Azure action for connecting two or more networks on Azure that route traffic to resources across those networks. See Microsoft Azure documentation for more information on network peering types.
Access Details
Regardless of whether you selected public or private Continue reading
