There’s some networking stuff, a few security links, and even a hardware-related article. Networking. Denise Fishburne has a 7-part series on IPv6. Russ White shares Russ' rules for network design. Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve gathered a few technology-related links for you all. Servers/Hardware.

Networking. Michael Kashin has a great article on how Open Virtual Network (OVN, part of the Open vSwitch project) implements virtual networks in OpenStack. In a bit of an older post from late summer 2016, Matt Oswalt outlines why network engineers should care about the network software supply chain. Good advice.

On Fedora, that’s done with dnf install wireguard-tools. On Ubuntu, the command is apt install wireguard-tools.

Networking. Michael Ryom has a nice (but short) article on using Log Insight along with a NetFlow proxy to help provide more detailed visibility into traffic flows between VMs on NSX logical networks. BGP seems to be emerging as an early front-runner for a standards-based control plane for software networking. Servers/Hardware.
