Interesting that sending things like network configurations, keys, and credentials to external entities - which BTW are fueled by data - is considered "ok" now.

- j4k0bfr 3mo agoYeah, the thought of having private keys and config slurped up by an LLM provider keeps me away from this kind of direct work. Perfect job for a local LLM!
- szszrk 3mo agoIs there anything here that suggests that? You are jumping to conclusions easily. It's nowadays the default not to export any credentials when exporting MT configs, and even doing that yourself is trivial. Since the equipment is pretty packed with functionality and very flexible, benefits of LLM assistance is big. As for "sending network configurations" it's a risk everyone needs to consider individually. Having that private may make attackers job harder, but security by obscurity ain't no replacement for a secure setup.
- paweladamczuk 3mo agoWhen I was setting up Wireguard server at home, the last step (after testing the setup) was the LLM giving me a set of commands to run manually to regenerate the credentials.
