    • RE: ZeroTier Review

      Thanks for the code snippets to create a network and authorize a client. I modified the PHP script to change a client IP. I disconnected my client and reconnected to be safe and client started using the new IP.

      <?PHP
      
      $secret=file_get_contents('authtoken.secret');
      
      echo "Connecting with secret of $secret\n\r";
      
      $networkID="aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa";
      $memberID="bbbbbbbbbb";
      $NewIP=array("192.168.50.10/24");
      
      $url="http://localhost:9993/controller/network/$networkID/member/$memberID?auth=$secret";
      $networkOption=array(
       'ipAssignments'=>$NewIP
      );
      
      //echo json_encode($networkOption);
      
      $curl=curl_init();
      
      $curlOptions=array(
       CURLOPT_URL=>$url,
       CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS=>json_encode($networkOption),
       CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER=>true
      );
      
      curl_setopt_array($curl,$curlOptions);
      
      $result=curl_exec($curl);
      
      print_r($result);
      
      /*
      echo "Sent Data: \n\r";
      print_r($curlOptions);
      */

      Some "not so standard" useful IP address stuff:

    • RE: Training Sessions

      I'm a network engineer from Ronco Communications. We're one of the largest Aerohive partners in the world. I'm our senior Aerohive engineer...multiple 500+ enterprise AP deployments in several different states. I train our engineers and sales engineers on the product. Could do a presentation and talk about the product and interesting projects I've worked on. Can also give discussion on wireless fundamentals (Roaming, explain MCS data rate charts, etc).

      Ronco is also very strong in Cisco UC, Avaya networking and VoIP, and Microsoft Lync/Skype for Business. Can ask around and see if any of our technical people want to be involved. It's too bad our Microsoft Lync Master moved to Philly. He probably would've come. He's 1 of 22 Microsoft Certified Solutions Masters in the world.

      My contract is up for renewal this March, so I'll be getting new iPhone then. Wife will get 6S or 6S plus, I'm hoping Apple releases 6C by then. I hate big screen phones.

      I'm surprised how much I disliked big screen phones before I had one and how dependent I am on it now. Coworker had a 4inch iPhone that I got my hands on yesterday and felt like I was in the stone age.

      My beef with big screens is that it's too big for my pockets, and too big to use with one hand. Big screens are perfect for ladies carrying the phone in a purse, I'm a pocket guy.

      I have no idea how a billion 4 foot Asians in skinny jeans carry 6 inch phones. Even crazier how people are going to use the new iPad.

      Should I create a new thread for this? Got through the installation and when I ran zerotier-cli /controller to verify installation, I got "missing authentication token and authtoken.secret not found (or readable) in /var/lib/zerotier-one". I tried restarting the zerotier service and also a full reboot of the ubuntu server.

      EDIT: I did check the contents of the aforementioned directory and did see the authtoken.secret file but not sure what the other would be if it weren't the same thing...

      This should do the trick:

      sudo zerotier-cli /controller

      This is why some people just shouldn't use technology. All the click happy Windows users with 100 toolbars got cell phones and this type of crap happens.

      @quicky2g said:

      I wish I could agree that RHEL/CentOS is better than Ubuntu. I've used so many flavors and releases and every time I give it an honest try, yum fails me: Takes too long, doesn't resolve dependencies, breaks other packages, etc.

      What kinds of issues? I've yet to have YUM break anything and I've managed thousands of CentOS/RHEL servers. This is very surprising. Is this with third party repos or the RH ones?

      I remember installing 3rd party apps (Can't remember names off the top of my head) and needing dependencies that weren't resolved. Then I'd try to manually install dependencies and yum would fail to install them and/or break another package (Somehow always something system related). Got frustrating enough after multiple times throughout the years that I just stopped using anything with yum.

      To be fair, I've also had issues with apt but had better luck finding resolution.

    • RE: Chosing an Enterprise Linux Server Distro

      I wish I could agree that RHEL/CentOS is better than Ubuntu. I've used so many flavors and releases and every time I give it an honest try, yum fails me: Takes too long, doesn't resolve dependencies, breaks other packages, etc. I always have problems and they're usually not worth spending hours and days fixing when there are other distros that work better for me. I've gravitated to Ubuntu Server because it just keeps working. I stick to LTS releases and generally don't have problems.

      Also, excellent article comparing top distributions here:

    • RE: Force Skype for Business to remain signed in..

      When we got SFB our boss told us he expected us to be online with an appropriate status. We're in different states so it's especially important. We also use the mobile app.

      It's pretty annoying when you see someone offline for days and days but they're working, or someone that's available but doesn't answer IM's or calls because they walked away from their desk and didn't change status.

    • RE: Sangoma releases line of IP phones

      I don't even understand why phone manufacturers are making 10/100 phones anymore. Is it really that expensive to put in 2 gig NIC's? Someone explain. It's gotta be a sales tactic.

      So this is a major gripe of mine, Skype for Business in a business environment, with employees who never login.

      Like what the crap is that..

      Is there a way to force a user to remain signed in via GPO that might be able to be applied?

      Why don't they login? They the type of users that just want a physical phone and don't care about the collaboration? They having PC problems that make SFB more difficult to use?

    • RE: What do you use for a local DNS server?

      I saw a presentation at a conference 5 or 6 years ago from an IANA guy. He said they're so paranoid about DNS that they have multiples of everything for the same letter root DNS server. They use hard drives, power supplies, network cables, DNS software, firewalls, etc all from multiple different companies. He also said they've gotten DoS attacks over 10Gbps. He said they were one of the driving forces for NGFW manufacturers to start making firewalls that could do 10Gbps. He said they've been able to sustain DoS attacks and not go down...you guys better! Pretty crazy stuff.

      Well think about building a lab. You want a storage device, jump box and logging kind of at a minimum. That's three.

      I don't have a storage device or logging yet. What do you recommend? And what do you mean by a storage device? Like for shared /home?

      I do so much with syslog at home it's ridiculous. syslog-ng to MySQL database with custom written PHP front-end. Works like a charm. Have been using it for a few customers too. 0 cost to me or my company and way better than all those crappy Kiwi imitators logging to a flat text file with minimal searching. Try logging 10 ASA's to Kiwi for a week then searching for inbound/outbound connections for a single IP....not going to happen.

      Yeah, can't imagine ever using Kiwi. What made you decide to not use ELK but to write something custom?

      Never heard of ELK. Will have to check it out. Wrote the custom one a while ago and never found a reason to use anything else. Super lightweight and can export to Excel. Log analysis and visual stats would be nice though.
