i doubt firewalls even existed in any capacity at this time. routing packets in and of itself was already quite an CPU intensive task, analysing and blocking packets would be a whole other ballgame during the early days.

it is mainly the web that has been commercialized. Getting acces to the internet (AKA, getting an IP block and routes to connect to others) has always been sort of centralized, mainly because ip blocks need to be handed out from a single so

also, BGP-MP added so many new options with regards to NLRI that it can be used for many, many different use cases. For instance, BGP can be used as an mac learning mechanism (EVPN), It can be used to communicate MPLS LSP's, it can eve

bgp has changed a ton however. with new additions to the protocol happening nearly yearly.

what i actually meant to say was that multitenancy makes networking complex. (and nearly any network is multi-tenant once it reaches a certain scale). Also, depending on the services which run on the network, more complex technology like MP

we can assume this also exists in SFP devices aswell. SFP's are relatively simple devices with room to spare, especially for a nation-state actor. The issue is this is completely undetectable.

> Nobody needs to be a network guy to run a data center. the complexity from networking at a DC mainly comes from scale. running enterprsie/dc hardware in a homelab is vastly different from running it in production.

modern firewalls do however match on tuple in their session table. Sure, the protocol is connectionless, that doesn't mean a firewall can't reason about which side the traffic is originating from in its session table.

Tesla's manufacturing capabilities are notoriously bad. the inconsistency in their finishing on the cars is telling. the tech inside the cars is amazing, but not being able to do things like proper bodywork or having lots of cars with

prior to world war 2, the US wasnt a free market either. with massive government involvement to solve the great depression.

having your own control about maintenances is a big one. the same with being able to give your customers flexibility in terms of when maintenance happens. this is a big deal in b2b space, especially with long running client relationships be

what would be the alternative to the UN? it is mainly a platform to prevent wars between major world powers. it might be inefficient in a lot of ways, but is far more preferable to wars. also, having a platform for global diplomatic coopera

Getting power right in a DC takes a ton of preventative maintenance. (doing black building tests, make sure there are working load tests which occur frequently, managing UPS battery health etc).

also, with epairs you can do some really flexible networking stuff on freebsd between jails/jails and the host system and even jails and ipsec tunnels.

by kazen44 5y ago
namespaces in what sense? network namespaces? because freebsd has VNET for a while now. which seems to do the same thing.

what should run in a jail? you need the base system to run jails. and that is pretty much the only thing that is installed.

Also, the reasons these laws exist in the first place is because not too long ago, privacy was massively eroded in the eastern half of europe and intensively used for suppression.

Not to mention the layer that lives behind this. Can you troubleshoot network level issues that seem to occur between your system and someone else's? What about storage? Can you make sure your data is still their if your environment ge

we once had this issue at an old job. People wanted to replace a monitoring solution for something new, because snmp was "bad and outdated". SNMP is definitely not the holy grail of solutions (to be honest, its kind of a mess). Bu

the issue with yaml is that is breaks down under real life complexities in larger/complexer environments.

also, the definition of neo-liberalism is about as vague as can be. it means different things to different people in different contexts.

also, it usually forget that humans are in essence emotional beings. emotions and the relation between people and these emotions are far too large to ignore in advance of "rational" thinking.
