I'm going to be actively looking for work later in the year with a view to starting a new role at the beginning of next year.

Job offers or suggestions on how to better present myself welcome
@jpmens - I am convinced, the #netops team put more effort into the DNS service, than the PA team on the website.
Jokes aside: Since the start of the project, I felt various times, that the website's quality and information is not en par with what should be expected from a project of that scale. Without following the actual stakeholder meetings, you would have had a hard time on keeping up. Updates on the project were very loosely and irregularly shared, if at all. The public meetings however were very helpful. Yet I would have expected more from a project that aims for the reach of 450 million EU citizens.
Productive morning:
* Fitted new UPSs
* All my home Cisco FW+R+S infrastructure upgraded to latest releases
* Broken out the core network segment into second rack
* New Catalyst switch wired in for second NAS and lab kit
* Firewall logs now go to SIEM (finally got around to fixing the access-list!)
* MRTG configs updated
Afternoon question, should I build a second domain controller on the lab LAN?
Me: netbox is like bitwarden for datacenter stuff!
G: yeah exactly haha, grumpy it rep goes over to grumpy netops guy "grrs" in "where address" "grunts" in "check source truth"
G: both go on about their day hunting problems with clubs >_<

#Proxmox virtualization often goes along with the great Proxmox Backup Server - and we always want statistics! Let's get our metrics of PBS in Grafana!
In this HowTo, we will quickly install and configure the pbs-exporter for hashtag#Prometheus on a Proxmox Backup Server system, add a token for the user and install the hashtag#Grafana dashboard. - #devops #homelab #netops #virtualization #backup #pbs #proxmoxbackupserver

Does #Juniper enforce license check to use MACsec ? My QFX5110s do not seem to enable it (even though VXLAN and BGP are working unlicensed :flan_pats: )

I had the pleasure of discussing Digital Twins on an episode of @packetpushers Heavy Networking and how they can empower #NetOps, #SecOps, and #Cloud operators to gain insights into their environments like never before! #digitaltwins #networkdigitaltwin https://bit.ly/4h6p0Sb
New at SharkFest'24 EUROPE, Chris Greer & Ross Bagurdes are teaching a core Wireshark skills class!
COURSE TITLE:
Core Wireshark Skills for Network Engineers & Security Pros
COURSE SUMMARY:
Throughout this course, we are going to look at real-world examples of how to practically use Wireshark to solve network problems and isolate cybersecurity incidents. This skill will help AllOps (NetOps, SecOps, DevOps) engineers to improve in their analysis and troubleshooting skills. Labs have been designed to give real-world, hands-on experience with protocols using Wireshark.

WHO IS THE COURSE FOR:
Wireshark can be intimidating. I remember how it felt when I first started looking at a trace file with Wireshark. Questions started flooding into my mind: What should I look for? Where do I start? How can I find the packets that matter? What filters should I use? What is 'normal' and what can I ignore in all this data? I froze under the weight of all the detail in the packets. If you have ever felt that way when looking at a pcap, this is the course for you!

The best thing about #NetOps in the early/mid 90s was that there was no one taking pictures when you "accidentally" took a out continent or two.
Good times.
We're thrilled to have Chris Greer and Ross Bagurdes starting off SharkFest'24 US with a Core Wireshark Skills pre-conference class
