I was actually considering rolling this out with where I'm at we use a different IdP, which has this same sort of functionality built in, but I'm not a fan of it..

MC continues to be the best thing I've ever used. And our deployment of it is so massive. Thousands of devices, hundreds or maybe a thousand users now. We use it so heavily and it's just a tank.

I'm assuming you mean the RMM functionality is just bullet proof, I wouldn't be able to get rid of our IdP (nor does MeshCentral act as one).

Moving from that port which was only giving 10FDx to an unused port, gave us 1000FDx.

I'm not sure where this issue stems from..

Got it sorted out, for some reason (and I'm still working on the specifics) our ESXi hosts secondary NIC keeps falling to 10FDx (likely some misconfiguration at setup).

I've moved XO off of this nic, and performance has been fixed.

If you want to improve ESXi performance, install KVM.

Yea, that's a different conversation entirely, I do want a outside of the XCP-ng pool environment, in case something goes sideways. I'm dealing with some sunkcost conversations about it, though I am making progress.

@scottalanmiller said in Broadcom Acquired VMware: Does KVM Have a Chance?:

@Oksana Does KVM have a chance? It's the only game in town. VMware is such a backwater of out of date, out of touch, "why would anyone use this" tech. If you use KVM, then you use VMware, it's like going from living in a beach front mansion to a caveman's cave where they are still pooping in a dark corner in the back.

VMware has been dead tech for years. It's so antiquated like they think it is the 2005 era.

XCP-ng is picking up a ton of customers as well, since there is a support model behind it.

@jt1001001 I'm in office today, and moved the port from 34 to 33 and am now getting 1000FDx on the port and within ESXi.

So it's very odd.

The Dropped Tx percentage is 0.6 of all packets dropped...

In looking at the interface further, I do have quite a lot of dropped packets.

The switch has been up for 224d 16h 48m 21s

Below is a screen capture of my NFS repos on Xen Orchestra, and the respective performance that I'm getting according to XO. I'm trying to sort out where my performance issues are stemming from and looking for some guidance.

All remotes were just re-tested for consistency.

After some digging around, I looked at my ESXi host (which is where XO is being run from - so its outside of the pool), and I noticed a 10MB Full Duplex NIC within ESXi.

I've looked at the switch port (an Aruba 2530) and find Port 34 at 10FDx.

If I attempt to manually set the port speed to 1000 FD, I get "Value 1000-full is not applicable to port 34"

If I check the network interface within XO, I get the below, which is not 10FDx...

A CLI Speed test shows

Would the next assumption be that this port is connected to a HUB and that physical re-cabling is going to be needed to address this?

Seems more like a 3rd party issue that was introduced than it was an issue introduced by Wyze.

@pattonb p=none means to monitor for any messages, but take no action.

The “none” policy, also known as “monitor” tells the provider to take no action. The “quarantine” policy sends any unauthorized emails into a separate folder, similar to a spam folder. The “reject” policy tells the provider to block any unauthorized emails so that they cannot reach recipients

You can check your dmarc record's configuration with a tool like mxtoolbox.com to see if it comes back with the same results.

This may just be an issue with how dig is being used.

@scottalanmiller said in New Building Considerations ...:

Build a super dedicated, fully cooled, fully wired, LARGE space with room to move about data closet on a raised floor.

I'm in the camp of a consistent temperature, regardless if it's 72 or 80 degrees, doesn't matter to me.

Everywhere I've worked aside from datacenters, has had power outages and then concerns about condensation forming on/in equipment.

More resilient power to the AC unit with a properly setup UPS to shutdown in the event of a outage seems way more important than the rest.

I don't disagree with having space to work.

@travisdh1 Yeah supposedly in /var/log/cloudsync, but this directory does not exist on the Synology.

I can pull other logs, which are in compressed .dat file, which are very extensive, but it doesn't list this detail, nearly as neatly or expressly.

Is anyone aware of a way to export the below logs to a CSV file? This is from a Synology DSM, using the built in "Cloud Sync" service.

@IThomeboy80 said in Define Air Gapped Networks:

I think it is isolated from the rest of the network. This is to ensure that data and intellectual property are kept safely guarded.

Right, but isolated from the "rest of the network" doesn't mean that it is isolated from the rest of the world.

Or are you suggesting that it does?

When using terminology like "Air Gapped" what is your first impression of it?

When I see someone say they have an air gapped network, I think it to mean that the network is separate from the rest of the organization (through a physical disconnect), and that Air Gapped, does not imply the lack of internet.

Air Gapped != Without Internet

What's your opinion?

Contemplating how to leverage 2 ISP's for supplemental bandwidth when needed using 2 separate routers that are both servicing the same LAN.

Get a DUAL Wan capable firewall, set it up either as Active/Active or Active/Backup.

You'll be banging your head sorting out getting a fault tolerant static IP address, though it can be done.

BGP..... that could be a whole series of topics itself.

Yup... and getting two different ISP's to play together is the fun part...

Working on some SOC 2 collections, while waiting for some warranty coverage on my car to be completed.

Nothing too special
