YAML, previously known as Yet Another Markup Language, but now YAML Ain’t Markup Language, is a human friendly data serialization standard for programming languages.
YAML and JSON, JavaScript Object Notation, are related to each other, where YAML, according to YAML 1.2 specification, is a superset of JSON.
YAML supports using scalars, sequences, and mappings. A scalar is a string, a number, or boolean, a sequence is a list, and a mapping is a key/value pair.
YAML is commonly used by configuration files in open source tools and Ansible, a network automation tool, uses YAML to run its playbooks.
When it comes to YAML syntax, be aware of the following:
Scalars are single values. It can be a string, number, or a boolean value. Strings don’t need to be quoted, except for some special cases:
Hello my friend,
We have received a lot of positive feedbacks in the social media regarding our previous post about collecting info from Nokia SR OS and Arista EOS using gRPC/gNMI. Thank you! Today we will cover the configuration part; hence, you will learn how to configure Arista EOS and Nokia SR OS using the gRPC transport with gNMI specification and OpenConfig YANG modules.

As we’ve often seen in the past, real world protest and violence is usually accompanied by attacks on the Internet. This past week has been no exception. The shocking murder of George Floyd on May 25 was followed, over the weekend of May 30/31, by widespread protests and violence in the US. At the same time, Cloudflare saw a large uptick in cyberattacks, particularly cyberattacks on advocacy organizations fighting racism.
This chart shows the number of cyberattack HTTP requests blocked by Cloudflare over the last week (blue line) compared to the corresponding week in April a month before (green line). Cloudflare’s scale means that we are blocking attacks in the many 10s of billions per day, but even with that scale it’s clear that during the last week there have been even more attacks than before. And those attacks grew over the weekend.
Digging in a little deeper we can compare the attacks over this past weekend with a corresponding weekend a month before. Over the weekend of April 25/26, Cloudflare blocked a total of 116,317,347,341 (a little over 116 billion cyberattack HTTP requests performing DDoS or trying to break into websites, apps or APIs were blocked).
Since 116,317,347,341 can Continue reading
Fear not slow migrators, legacy technologies are not obsolete – yet.
It is common knowledge in the manufacturing sector of the economy that many of the companies that should have deployed HPC simulation and modeling applications one or two decades ago to help with product design, among other tasks, did not do so. …
Avoiding The Missing Middle With AI was written by Timothy Prickett Morgan at The Next Platform.
By now, many of us are realizing we’ve been taking access to basic things for granted, such as social interaction, health care, on-site education, and…the Internet. While always valuable, the Internet is now a lifeline offering a fortunate few the ability to adapt and maintain a semblance of reality and connection to our employment, health services, and our family and friends. But those who don’t have access to fast, reliable broadband Internet are experiencing the pain of staying at home. Last year, an analysis by Microsoft indicated that 162.8 million Americans aren’t able to use the Internet at broadband speeds. That’s unacceptable, and while there are steps that communities continue to take to build their own networks, Congress needs to lead by taking steps to ensure that broadband access is available at an affordable price to all Americans.
While some cities and states have begun to relax orders, our return to normal life is still a long way off.
Congress took the first important step with the CARES Act, but it did not go far enough. The HEROES Act and the COVID-19 DISASTER in Indian Country Act are a more serious step toward addressing the connectivity needs of localities, and we applaud these Congressional actions. Now, it is time to move this critical legislation Continue reading

We are at a very special moment in history right now. Never before in modern times have we seen such a global impact and a global response to a crisis which largely ignores geopolitical borders. The COVID-19 outbreak and its repercussions have put cities, countries, entire regions on hold.
One saving grace of this crisis is that the global digital infrastructure – the terrestrial and mobile networks, the data centers, the undersea cables, and the satellite connections that support the global Internet – is by now well enough developed for people in many countries to stay in constant contact despite isolation.
This means that, today, lockdown does not necessarily need to mean shut down.
Digital applications are key to enduring the crisis
Digital communication is vital to this. It enables companies to send their workforce home to work. It enables people to stay in contact with loved ones they can’t meet with. It enables children and students of all ages to continue with their education. Even the researchers who we all pin our hopes on finding a vaccine are using digital applications to remain in contact and share data in their efforts to understand the virus.
So digital applications that Continue reading
On May 14th 2020, Marcel Gamma, tech industry journalist, and editor-in-chief at inside-it.ch and inside-channels.ch, published an article discussing several glaring security vulnerabilities in Silver Peak’s SD-WAN products on inside-it.ch. The original article was written in German; Marcel was kind enough to translate it into English and get permission from his publisher to have the English version published on ipSpace.net.
Security researchers make serious accusations against SD-Wan manufacturer Silver Peak. The latter disagrees. Swiss experts are analyzing the case.
By Marcel Gamma,
Silver Peak is accused of laxity in dealing with security issues and in dealing with security researchers who act within the framework of Responsible Disclosure.
