yes, dhcp ip

You mean override the ISP DNS ?

Yes

#

IPv6 is nice, they thought it should not rely on a sane L2 and put a bunch of stuff into L3 that should be L2

clear ferry
#

it has always been there

#

I push all my upstream DNS to cloudflare via DoT

#

and intercept rogue DNSv4

where? on my wan page it just let me set dhcp or static ip, no choise for dns

#

no, not got around to it. so your having calibration issues after recalibration?

static schooner
#

just a weird reading that took a power cycle to correct

#

dunno what caused it

forest edge
#

i do

#

the machine was designed by monkys

static schooner
#

the process is easy - turn it off and hit the buttons in the order they say

#

it went from ~40% to 122% and blinking and back to ~50% after a powercycle

forest edge
#

50 with an empty drawer?

static schooner
#

no, about half full

#

I believe the 50%, it's the 122% that crazy

forest edge
#

was kind of curious. that recalibration says to use a white piece of paper. the trash bags we use are white, the bags that came with the unit were clear.. what are the odds, the drawer sensor being related to the bag being white lol

static schooner
#

dunno. and the poop isn't white either, so...

forest edge
#

litter is grey

#

actually some litter is white

static schooner
#

it's not just a bed of litter down there

forest edge
#

I had switched to bigger bags to not deal with stretching the small ones around the drawer lip. kind of wondering now if the bagginess sticking in around the sides might be some of my issues lol

subtle pasture
#

It's usually considered bad practice to have your edge device run a web server on itself. I'm doing the same as @clear ferry and running my reverse proxy behind my firewall, for that reason.

#

It's possible to do it safely, but it's a lot easier to make a mistake that exposes the web server to exploit when it's running on the firewall itself.

#

It's also really easy to screw up Webadmin access to your firewall, because both the firewall's internal webserver, and the reverse proxy, want to bind to port 80 and port 443. So now you're dealing with multiple virtual interfaces, port binding, etc.

#

Mistakes just get... a lot easier when you try to roll everything into one.

late gate
#

Very true. I know its bad practise, but was thinking not to let every service be down if a server had an issue. I would never do it in production / business. Will reconcider though as I like traefik

prisma briar
#

Just run opnsense in a VM

#

Instead of everything on opnsense

late gate
#

Yeah thats possible too, but mixed opinions about that

finite atlas
#

it all depends on how paranoid you wanna be about your IT stuff

#

the more paranoid you wanna be, the more isolation you will add

prisma briar
#

'Paranoid' kind of implies that the need for caution is unfounded, it's not.

#

Don't host publicly-facing webservers on servers that do other important things.

glacial knot
#

If you run vms, make sure the host has smt disabled
And that the vms aren't accelerated
Otherwise might as well just run in a "container" built of cgroups and chroot

prisma briar
#

Running a VM without any host-side acceleration/paravirtualization is going to be really slow.

#

Disabling SMT is reasonable if you can take the performance hit. I don't personally do it on my boxes, though, much in the same way I don't put bars over my windows even though I know that'd increase my home security -- I think the real-world chance of it being meaningful is rather low and it would be too much of an inconvenience.

I'd say that you can leave SMT on if the platform's SMT doesn't have exploits but is there even a platform without SMT exploits?

glacial knot
#

SMT off on an assumed compromised VM is critical
If you don't do it, don't bother at all

prisma briar
#

I just don't host publicly-facing stuff at home.

#

I've got a single port open for my VPN

glacial knot
#

SMT is known to break isolation
Once core isolation scheduling comes around it might be reasonable to do
Otherwise partition or no smt

prisma briar
#

If you're running known-compromised VMs you should probably have a dedicated box for just that.

glacial knot
#

If you assume that a container isn't fine, that's your model

prisma briar
#

Even with SMT enabled and a leaky unmitigated CPU, a separate VM or container for your webserver is going to be way more secure than running a webserver directly on your opnsense install, though.

#

A non-zero part of security is simply making yourself a less appealing target so people will move on to easier servers if they ever do get access to something on your end. If all they see is a VM with a webservers installed they're going to be a lot less likely to poke further than if they see it running on an opnsense instance or a desktop with browsers and user profiles on it.

dusky plank
#

who of us makes 1 web facing website on this web server we discuss rn?
we all just proxy them, don't we?

#

so if you're that strict you should propably handle the other vms the same way

prisma briar
#

Unless you're running something like a WAF or filtering on it a reverse proxy isn't really a security layer.

dusky plank
#

I built my own WAF smart

#

it's actually fairly simple, a 5xx or multiple 4xx just blocks the ip

prisma briar
#

When I think of WAF I think more of something inspecting requests looking for anomalies like SQL injections and weirdly-sized data blocks, things that won't necessarily throw a 4xx or 5xx.

#

Things like Apache's mod_security

dusky plank
#

mod_security isn't waf but more like owasp for me but yeah thats a standard

prisma briar
#

owasp is a security-focused group, who does things like maintain rulesets for mod_security

dusky plank
#

so that should already cover the injections then

prisma briar
#

As long as you remember that things like mod_security are imperfect and are largely reactionary instead of proactive when new exploits come around, yea, it's a benefit to have.

#

It's definitely not an alternative to keeping your sites and servers frequently updated.

@glacial knot can't get metallb to assign ipv6 addresses at all 🤔

glacial knot
#

Mildly not surprised tbh.

clear ferry

it just says "no ip avaliable" when I try

docs just say it should work

apiVersion: metallb.io/v1beta1

  name: doc-example-combined
  namespace: metallb-system
spec:
  addresses:
  - 10.0.100.0/28
  - 2002:2:2::1-2002:2:2::100

is in the docs, I just removed the ipv4 field and put in my own range at ipv6

#

curious if the range has to be in a specific cidr, woudn't think so

#

I gave it aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa::1-aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa::100

#

I have a whole /48 that is aaaa:aaaa:aaaa::/48 and I just gave it my aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:subnet:metallb::1

which is a valid ipv6 🤔

@clear ferry have you tried keeping some V4 addresses around? Maybe it's v4/dualstack but not v6 only 🤔

clear ferry
#

nein

glacial knot
#

I've seen bugs like that. Where v6 support was bolted on after the fact and a couple || checks never made it in D:

clear ferry
#

interesting, now that I told it which pool to use specifically

#
{"caller":"service_controller.go:60","controller":"ServiceReconciler","level":"info","start reconcile":"web/web-server-service","ts":"2023-03-24T10:39:15Z"}

#

so the service requests an ipv4, not an ipv6

#

In order for MetalLB to allocate IPs to a dual stack service, there must be at least one address pool having both addresses of version v4 and v6.

#

🤔

glacial knot
#

Yea, I guess I'm right 😄
It's mostly the dumbest answer if the question is why code doesn't work

Jesus, this raid reconstruct finally finished after like 8 days.

late gate
#

is it any good traffic analyse plugin to opnsense?

clear ferry
#

one of the reasons I went with dRAID on my new 20 drive zfs pool

prisma briar
#

So it had to do a full parity reconstruct

clear ferry
#

will rebuild in less than half a day

#

I genuinly never have seen anyone who does an EXPAND on a raid before, that is, before 2 months ago when a customer asked me about it

#

local drives are so rare these days

prisma briar
#

This was the first one I did

clear ferry
#

this was a 8->12 drive raid6 expansion

prisma briar
#

I've always backed everything up and wiped/remade the raid in the past

clear ferry
#

took 7 days still on SSD

#

rebuild of a single drive took 20 min

#

so expanding raid is bonkers

prisma briar
#

I added a 5th 4TB drive to an existing 4x4TB RAID 5

#

Yea, this finished a rebuild in maybe 4 hours when I replaced a failed drive a couple weeks ago

unless you have support contracts

#

You mean zfs @glacial knot ?

prisma briar
#

I also have full backups so if I lose the entire system, whatever.

glacial knot
#

it'd be a dumb idea, but possible

clear ferry
#

yikes

#

yes you can make pools and vdevs as single drives

prisma briar
#

Which is why I wish I would have just wiped and remade this raid and restored from backups instead of reconstructing had I known how long it was going to take, heh.

#

I saw some people talking about using Ceph on a single box for disk-level redundancy/ease of swapping disks/object storage a while back.

clear ferry
#

yikes

#

hard pass

prisma briar
#

That always seemed like an interesting concept.

#

Yea, I think the I/O and management overhead would kill it but in a couple CPU generations that probably won't be much of a concern anymore.

clear ferry
#

modern CPUs can handle pretty much anything

#

our propritary ASICs in SANs have all been laid dead now

#

we just do it in CPU instead

prisma briar
#

Yea, but the CPU that Ceph uses can be used by other tasks.

#

So even if it's reasonable to run on each box it still costs something if you're trying to load each box up with as much as it can take

clear ferry
#

that is why you have a scale out system

prisma briar
#

I work for a hosting company, not loading boxes up as full as they'll go before they tank in performance would be wasteful.

#

We generally keep enough loose capacity on each cluster for two or three boxes on the cluster to go down

clear ferry
#

that is usually handled by the underlying hypervisor HA anyway

#

cluster admission etc

#

pretty normal for storage systems to go up to 90% before someone thinks it is a good idea to expand storage

#

but for virtulization it usually comes down to if you want to have spare capacity hosts or spare shared capacity

#

I prefer the latter

prisma briar
#

We use a sparse drive image container for our stuff with a cron to go through and defrag/release empty space from deleted files.

If I'm understanding what I'm seeing correctly, there isn't really a way to supply power to a Shelly 1 from just these three terminals right? At least not without interfering with the safety beam sensor or disabling functionality of signalling the garage door opener at all

you really shouldn't use the terminals on the opener itself to power the shelly regardless. they are almost never consistent voltage anyways

that makes sense. i was just hoping there would be a "self-contained" solution

This is probably the most tech-related Discord server I'm on and at the same time the most dismissive towards stuff like ChatGPT. It's very weird.

they might have a good venn diagram overlap

If you feed enough data into a self learning algorithm

the same people who praise ChatGPT probably overlap a lot with the users who think tiktok is great and are angry with nation x for spying on them

with analog you always have a ground noise

what do you think the digital mic does to not have noise from the analogue sensor it necessarily builts on?

perhaps less noise due to shorter analogue cables and better adc's

the adc makes the difference

mics without power are useless for this

that said, the netatmo weather station has a volume sensor which seems to work well in my setup

it updates every few minutes so you will need something else for the spectrum

they just apply some kind of filtering

🤔 do you want a VLAN to be added as tagged VLAN to a physical interface?

the thing is I bound 5 ports on the switch to be used temporary for the homelab cause of 2.5g. Opnsense doesnt allow me to connect a vlan to the bound, so proxmox wont work properly with just the ip range, and nor can I tag clients

I know bounding router ports is a nono

yeah, but I guess you are refering to a blade setup now. The optplex cant push more than max 4g though the pcie on its best day I think

clear ferry
#

No, we've had 10G on rack servers for decades, before blades

#

And most homelabs run old enterprise gear

prisma briar
#

I've got two 2.5G devices, finding SFPs that work reliably with them was a pita.

#

Cable modem and onboard nic on my desktop

clear ferry
#

Yes, 2.5 is a strange beast that has very few real life applications

#

Makes sense for wifi7 access points

prisma briar
#

The desktop wasn't bad, but the cable modem took 5 SFPs before I found one that reliably linked at 2.5G and wouldn't drop to 100Mbps all the time

clear ferry
#

But that is about it

#

And partly wifi6 under Optimal conditions

prisma briar
#

My wifi6 APs can only do like half the band range at once, but that still gets me a 600Mbps speed test result.

clear ferry
#

We did 2.5 on first gen blade servers to bump them from 1 to 2.5 to expand their life

#

But most of those servers were retired by 2010 anyway

#

I would like the aliexpress routers to have two 10G sfp ports to be honest

clear ferry
#

Think we introduced it in 2007

prisma briar
#

All of my switches are 10Gb, except the POE one for my cameras.

#

I went mikrotik for everything, it wasn't that bad price-wise.

#

And as weird as routeros is it seems to work well

clear ferry
#

Mikrotik are great price wise

#

Just utter shit to manage

prisma briar
#

Yea, their OS makes no sense

#

You're basically beholden to documentation

clear ferry
#

I've seen the windows client to configure, looks like windows 95

#

Wtf

late gate
#

I really dont disagree that having a 10G infrastructure is good, I just wish it could do 1/2.5/5/10 natively. Then I would upgrade right away

prisma briar
#

Yea, all MDI windows

clear ferry
#

And the cli is non intuitive

prisma briar
#

All I really use mine for are vlans and LAGs

clear ferry
#

I've recently started training with vxlan and bgp

#

Probably gonna do some certs soon

prisma briar
#

I'm familiar with the general concepts for vxlan and bgp but never used either.

clear ferry
#

I've implemented them for 5 years from runbooks, but now I've started labbing to be able to design them from scratch

prisma briar
#

Our openstack clusters will set up vxlans but I've never looked past the network management gui for it

clear ferry
#

A lot of the concepts exist in nsx-t already, which I am certified on

#

Any experience with MikroTik 12-Port 10G Switch with Dual Power Supply (CRS312-4C+8XG-RM) <-- that got all speeds

prisma briar
#

The 10Gb ones with SFPs can do all speeds, you just need to get an SFP module that'll do that speed.

clear ferry
#

If you only need 12 ports sure

#

And only need 4 multi speed sfp

prisma briar
#

I have 1, 2.5, and 10 GB on one switch here

#

I don't have any 5Gb stuff

#

This switch has optical, DAC, base-t, 1Gb, 2.5Gb, and 10Gb on it.

late gate
#

@prisma briar Are you sure? The one atx linked to that I would buy right away doesnt seem to support anything else than 1G and 10G, but I need 1, 2.5, 5 and 10

prisma briar
late gate
#

its an all sfp

prisma briar
#

Yea, you get sfp->cat-whatever adapters for it

late gate
#

the mikrotik I seen seem to support all modes yes

prisma briar
#

Different mikrotiks can run different OSes, routeros is the full-featured OS.

#

I've got another 8x1Gb, 2x10Gb Mikrotik one that only runs swos-lite, it's fine for what I'm using it for but it's way less capable with routing than the other two I have. It was also way cheaper.

clear ferry
#

And more developed

#

Swos was shite last i checked

prisma briar
#

It's on par with a fancy consumer managed switch like what you'd get from linksys or netgear

#

Which is in no way a compliment

#

But it can at least do vlans

#

That's all it has

late gate
#

I guess thats enough for most people

prisma briar
#

Can't even do stuff like adjust link speed negotiation

#

Oh, wait, nevermind, it was just hidden behind a weird interface.

#

RouterOS can be a full network router, it can do dhcp and dns management, it's got a wireguard server, it can do inter-network routing/nat, it's got junk like an SMB server and NTP server

late gate
#

now I am not really planning to ditch opnsense though

prisma briar
#

I use pfsense for all that stuff personally

#

I just use it as a fancy switch

#

Mostly I got the cheapest 10Gb models with the port counts I needed

late gate
#

Is it any (minimum)2.5-10gb POE++ with minimum a 10G sfp from mikrotik?

finite atlas
#

why do you spend so much on networking?

#

1G is perfectly fine for the vast majority of homelab usecases

late gate
#

good question. In general its a bit connected to I would like a bit higher nfs performance between the cluster and nas than 1G

glacial knot
#

Why?

#

do you have applications that actually make use of that?
