It’s 2020 And Android’s IPv6 Is Still Broken

I got into some interesting discussions about IPv6 on Twitter. Then someone asked if Android is getting DHCPv6 support in version 11 of the OS.

When IPv6 was developed, initially with RFC 2460, there was this idea that:

Forget all you've learned about IPv4, and design IPv6 from the ground up

This sounds good in theory but ignores completely the lessons we’ve learned from IPv4. Not to mention, there is no such thing as greenfield. Almost all networks, are existing ones, you don’t get to start all over again. There was this very shiny view of end to end connectivity, /64 everywhere and only SLAAC allowed. I get all of that, it’s like saying “I wish there were no wars”, but unfortunately, people are stupid, so there will be wars. There’s this naivety, similar to a teenager that is growing up. You want to change the world, then you realize the world is run by money, mega corps, and dirty politicians.

This whole mess led to the holy wars of SLAAC + RDNSS vs DHCPv6. Please note that SLAAC Continue reading

BGP AS Numbers on MLAG Members

I got this question about the use of AS numbers on data center leaf switches participating in an MLAG cluster:

In the Leaf-and-Spine Fabric Architectures you made the recommendation to have the same AS number on all members of an MLAG cluster and run iBGP between them. In the Autonomous Systems and AS Numbers article you discuss the option of having different AS number per leaf. Which one should I use… and do I still need the EBGP peering between the leaf pair?

As always, there’s a bit of a gap between theory and practice ;), but let’s start with a leaf-and-spine fabric diagram illustrating both concepts:

Scaling EVPN Multi-Site Overlays using Route-Servers

Cisco’s EVPN Multi-Site it’s a great technology that allows us to achieve massive scale of an EVPN network. With the latest release, the official scalability numbers give us something in the realm of over 12000 VTEPs (512 VTEPs per site x 25 sites).
I’m in no way suggesting that you would need such a big topology and you definitely should segment way sooner you reach the limit, but still…

The main configuration requirement for the Multi-Site overlay is to have a full mesh of eBGP peering between all border gateways.

This has scalability drawbacks as usual. Not only each leaf will have ever growing number of peers which will soon grow out of control, but maybe, worse is the fact that after one site is added, every other site must be touched too.

To avoid a full mesh, for iBGP topologies we would be using a Route Reflector, but with eBGP that’s obviously not an option. So, instead of a RR they way to scale eBGP peerings is to leverage a Route-Server.

A Route-Server provides route reflection capabilities and as such it must ensure that NLRIs attributes like the Next Hop and route-targets aren’t changed.
In Cisco’s EVPN implementation, the Continue reading

VMware, Dell add heft to on-prem cloud service

Aiming to help customers handle growing on-premises workloads, VMware and Dell EMC have bolstered their co-developed cloud software.First introduced in 2018, VMware Cloud on Dell EMC is intended to help enterpise customers move on-premises infrastructure and workloads to the cloud. Version 2.0 of VMware Cloud on Dell EMC bri-gs improved support for high-density and high-performance data-center applications. [Get regularly scheduled insights by signing up for Network World newsletters.] VMware Cloud on Dell EMC consists of VMware’s high-performance compute, storage and networking software, powered by VMware vSphere, vSAN and NSX, tightly integrated with Dell EMC VxRail hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) hardware, and delivered as a service all –  managed by VMware.To read this article in full, please click here

The Hedge Episode 36: Rich Alderson and the Living Computer History Museum

The Living Computers History Museum and Labs was founding by Paul Allen to collect early computer systems and keep the constrained resource coding practices used on these systems alive. Over time it has developed into a living museum and lab, with hands-on access to some of the earliest examples of computing history. Rich Alderson joins us for this episode of the Hedge to describe the museum and its exhibits.

Central African Peering Forum: A Defining Moment for Peering and Interconnection

The first-ever Central African Peering Forum comes at a defining moment for Internet peering and interconnection. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries have implemented measures to restrict people from moving from their homes, while only allowing essential movements and services.

But life cannot stop.

Kids still need to study and attend school. People still need to access financial services, conduct personal and business transactions, access government services, pay their taxes, and access health services. Most importantly, people need to access accurate and timely information. But now these services must be provided at a larger scale – via reliable Internet infrastructure. Moreover, some of this content and these services do not exist in digital format. They need to be created, sometimes in the language of local communities.

COVID-19 has uncovered gaps, missing elements, and key challenges, which need to be addressed so that life can smoothly transition to the new normal. Failing to address these challenges may result in severe socioeconomic consequences.

We are now a few months down the path since lockdown measures have been implemented in most countries. It is time to reflect on the lessons learnt so far, with respect to the reliability of the Internet Continue reading

Creating the best Linux Development experience on Windows & WSL 2

We are really excited to have had Docker Desktop be featured in a breakout session titled “The Journey to One .NET” at MSFT Build by @Scott Hanselman  with WSL 2. Earlier in the his  keynote, we learned about the great new enhancements for GPU support for WSL 2 and we want to hear from our community about your interest in adding this functionality to Docker Desktop. If you are eager to see GPU support come to Docker Desktop, please let us know by voting up our roadmap item and feel free to raise any new requests here as well.

With this announcement, the launch of the Windows 2004 release imminently and Docker Desktop v2.3.02 reaching WSL2 GA , we thought this would be a good time to reflect on how we got to where we are today with WSL 2.

April 2019

Casting our minds back to 2019 (a very different time!), we first discussed WSL 2 with Microsoft in April. We were excited to get started and wanted to find a way to get a build as soon as possible.

May 2019

It turned out the easiest way to do this was to collect a laptop Continue reading

The Latest Modern Innovation in Architecture

Architecture is constantly changing. New materials and ideas, as well as the needs of clients, drive new innovation in architecture. The latest innovation in architecture is that there are no defining standards, allowing for a wide variety of different styles and designs.

Modern architecture places emphasis on horizontal and vertical lines, as well as 90-degree angles. Modern architecture depends a great deal on sculpture forms, smooth surfaces, circular voids, and overhead shading systems.

Innovations in architecture include such features as large horizontal windows and ample natural light, as well as outdoors entertainment areas.

Architecture Innovations for Those on a Budget

In the last few years, one of the biggest innovations in architecture is the designing of tiny houses for those on a budget. These tiny homes need to be well thought out and the innovation comes in when architects have to come up with innovative ways to fit everything that normal homes have in a small space often no larger than a small bedroom.

Some of the innovations in this include such things as built in storage solutions and multifunctional furniture to make the most of the limited living space.

Another architecture innovation is the turning shipping containers into cute Continue reading

Feedback: Data Center for Networking Engineers

When I started designing Data Center Infrastructure for Networking Engineers webinar I wanted to create something that would allow someone fluent in networking but not in adjacent fields like servers or storage to grasp the fundamentals of data center technologies, from server virtualization and containers to data center fabrics and storage protocols.

Here’s what a network architect said about the webinar:
