Idc how much its gonna cost me
#networking
small prism
So I'm trying to look up what networking certs I should get for intro level jobs and maybe for running the it part of astartup(a theoretical one but realistic enough that i should learn more about networking), and from what I've read comptia A+ and network+ seem to be the way to go. Would anyone have suggestions as to other certs to look at or a suggestion of an entirely different path?
sonic raft
Yo guys I got a problem. I got a shit wifi router and I can’t just move it closer to my PC . Do u think I could still get decent speeds wth like a 250ft Ethernet cable? Can I even use a 250ft Ethernet cable?
small prism
1000 ft limit
sonic raft
Ok
river arrow
@small prism specific company certs for CISCO / Juniper / HP and so on, look up your local networking companies, they might even offer training + entry level job
small prism
Thank you! I’m still mainly learning for self interest, but I’ll keep that in mind and check them out!
winged moth
I know it's the incremental versioning for it, but I find it funny that this fairly absurd jump in ethernet speeds is called "802.3bs" 802.3 bullshit.
Wait, that's not Ethernet though, that's fibre.
blazing hatch
I have a question, how come usually upload speeds are lower than download speeds?
I mean, it couldn't cost isps that much more
ashen lily
I'm gessing its cause the average person downloads more, so they'd make more money off of people wanting a higher upload
rocky badge
@ashen lily I would pay to get faster upload speeds 😃
ashen lily
and? i never asked who would
rocky badge
I know, I hate my 5Mbps up...
my bad upload speeds http://beta.speedtest.net/result/6947065362.png

anyone can get a business connection normally
its just if you can afford it :p
thats one of our business lines in one of our Datacenters, although its only guarenteed 100mbit and its being used
rare ember
how is what faster than fios?
rare ember
faster "starting" speeds
basically, they dont offer anything less than 100mbps :p
fios do
ive been tempted to up my speeds to 1gb
at home
but i cant justify it :p
rocky badge
yeah, all charter in our area starts at 100Mbps
rare ember
rocky badge
yeah multigigabit from Xfinity
rare ember
not bad price to be honest
rocky badge
we dont have fiber or xfinity in our area
rare ember
interesting, i think they got rid of the plan im on
rare ember
well the plan im on
im paying 90$ a month
and i get around 250
however
thats hilarious
it does go up after 12 months
but its less than im paying now
rocky badge
yup
rare ember
ill have to speak to the GF as im moving in with her shortly, so ill need to take control of the internet :p
rocky badge

rare ember
hmmm, just upgraded one of my Unifi aps and its not reconnecting to the controller
rare ember
thats the thing
its up
pingable
accessible
just not connecting tot he controller
lets see if i labeled it on the switch so ic an power it off lol
rocky badge
lol
rare ember
yay i did 😃
rocky badge
labeling
rocky badge
rip.. at least its easy though
rare ember
ill go for lunch first and see if it settles down, otherwise ill go dig it out of the ceiling and fix it
rocky badge
ok
torn stump
Doesn't look to bad 😃

What for connection do you have?
agile basin
?
rocky badge
are you asking if pod has fiber or cable? @torn stump
agile basin
I have dial-up
rocky badge
lol
torn stump
No, is it a buisness connection?
rocky badge

rocky badge
that would be more expensive
I might actually use my Pis now https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/piserver/
agile basin
cri
valid mango
high anchor
To do a render farm with Pis, you would just need to have a network render server that can be run on a Pi and then maybe use PiServer to control a huge Pi farm (or at least some kind of app to config and control multiple Pis rapidly (like a VM provisionner))
rocky badge
hmm
high anchor
Maybe not that much because of the speed but maybe more than I think because of the multicore stuff
agile basin
Yeah, i dunno
high anchor
Having a lot of 4 core machines rendering a single image could be faster than a similar cost render server
I would definetly do some maths to know the cost of a render machine and how many Pis you can buy for the same amount
high anchor
4 I think
rocky badge
no HT 😃 and a ~1 GHz ?
high anchor
Quad Core 1.2GHz Broadcom BCM2837 64bit CPU
And 1Gb of ram
This could be anoying to render some stuff...
rocky badge
high anchor
And cost effectively, we would need some fast SD card, and they arent cheap...
rocky badge
the 100mbit ethernet sucks on the Pi
torn stump
Yes, its really enoying that the rpi's only have 100mbit ethernet
There are other singleboard computers that have Gbit ethernet and even usb 3.0
rocky badge
my banana pi m3 has gigabit and I love it
high anchor
Pi doesn't even have USB 3 for Gigabit Ethernet Adapters ?
high anchor
Yeah, so adapter isn't even thinkable...

I've got a cheapo talk talk router at home, connected to loads of others. Would it be worth replacing it with a modem & PF Sense one? Or is that too overkill for a home setup?
agile basin
Pfsense is never too overkill
thick minnow
If its network nothing is overkill
warped aurora
Also, on a slightly different note. Have you guys got those free Meraki APs & switches?
And are they any good?
agile basin
Free?

warped aurora
agile basin
@warped aurora Free Meraki Ap's and switched? Explain
warped aurora
You just attend a webinar and they send out a switch/ AP for free. Give me a sec and I'll grab the link.
warped aurora
You want the "Cloud managed ethernet switching" for the switch or the "Cloud managed wifi" for a free AP.

@vagrant heath seems like your ISP is filtering you. Good result but your speed test is higher and you only had 24 out of 32 streams
that shows filtering
dull iron
@agile basin what was your bufferbloat? If it was cached your bufferbloat must suck
dull iron
definitely not right as you should be seeing a large range of pings
agile basin
I was confused... so i re-ran it, and it was normal
dull iron
did you select the fiber test?

Yeah it is
I wanna get some toughts on this internet setup i'm doing when I move. I wanna have ethernet ports in the wall so I can plug in anywhere in the house (There will be Cat7 in the walls) So, I'm thinking of doing my setup like this, Cable coming in, going to Modem (provided by isp, can't skip that) then, into the wall, upstairs, into my TP Archer C5400. From there I would like to split it up with a swich and connect every cable in the walls to that. I also wanna put some wireless ap's or routers so I have full coverage in and around my house. I think this is a good setup, but I would like to get your input. Should I change something? Do you recommend a specific switch? (I would like to future proof my house, so maybe 10Gigabit everywhere in the house?) At least I want 1Gigabit lan. I'm planning on adding a NAS and some security cams too. I'm worried that I won't have enough ports on the switch to connect everything. Do you have a similar setup? Please tell me how you set it up. Thanks 😄
west lantern
But how about distrubuting it troughout my house? Do you think this is a god way?
vagrant heath
There is no Cat7 Ethernet defined by the TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association)
I'm sure there is "Cat7" Ethernet, but its not an offical standard.
desert moss
vagrant heath
"Category 7 is not recognized by the TIA/EIA"
"Category 7A is not recognized in TIA/EIA-568"
"Category 8 was ratified by the TR43 working group under ANSI/TIA 568-C.2-1"
"Category 8 is designed only for data centers where distances between switches and servers is short. It is not intended for general office cabling."
So there is Cat8 Ethernet.
Cat7 Ethernet is snake oil
ashen lily
Who gives a crap if it ain't defined by some group of people
vagrant heath
Is it a modem/router or a modem?
west lantern
modem/router (the one my isp provides) but I won't use that one for wifi
west lantern
Rip
Unplug everything and plug it back in (including modem) and restart every device (router, desktop, smartphone etc.) Then try again
Works every time for me lol
rocky badge
@thick minnow what AP?
compact jackal
@desert moss that CAT 7 cable sounds like snake oil to me
compact jackal
Lmao
fathom hound
Cat7 cable isn't snake oil per se
It's capable of 100Gb/s at <15m distances, and 10Gb/s at >=15m distances.
I'd just go with cat6 or cat6a
cat6 will do 10Gb/s up to 55m, then 1Gb/s past that, and cat6a will do 10Gb/s up to 100m
west lantern
Yeah, I'm gonna go with cat6a. I tought Cat7 was official, I heard it somewhere and assumed it was
And what about the switch? Which one should I get?
Also, is this a good setup? am i not gonna run into trouble with subnets? I'm planning on having ap's (or some routers) connected to a router, I'm not sure if that'll be an issue?
fathom hound
Not sure about a switch
How many people and devices do you plan to have on there?
Need/want it to be managed or unmanaged?
west lantern
I want to have My workstation, My desktop, home media pc and a NAS connected via cable, then a few phones laptops, etc on wifi (I know this doesn't matter for a switch) About 5-8 devices I guess would be connected via cable. I want to be able to connect my desktop (or any device via cable) to the wall and have a 1/10GBit link to every device on the network, especially to the nas. I would like a managed switch, but don't really know if I would get any benifit from it. Are there any outstanding things a managed switch can that an unmanaged can't?
rare ember
having 10gbit to every device, will be costly so i guess it also depends how much you want to spend
an all 10gbit switch will cost you >500$ i think
west lantern
Yeah, well, don't wanna spend too much, I would have Cat6a cables so they would be 10Gbit ready but for now have a 1Gbit link
rare ember
depending on the number of ports
west lantern
Yeah, don't wanna spend that kind of money for only a switch

i was planning on using an old pc to run a minecraft servers for my friends, do i have to have the computer plugged directly into my router for it to work or can i plug it into a switch?

2gb is enough, I just want to have more if needed

Hello guys im looking for some help here im hoping somone can point me in the right direction. I dont have access to my router but i need to plug in my DSL phone, Is there any way to sort of "tether" it from my PC? My PC has wifi and an ethernet port, i was just wondering if anybody knew how i could do this
west lantern
To my knowledge, that's impossible @steel magnet
steel magnet
@west lantern - After a while someone told me this was called network bridging but i needed to change the ip config. if you are interested i saw how to do it here thanks anyways: https://www.wikihow.com/Bridge-an-Internet-Connection
west lantern
Oh, thanks @steel magnet I didn't know that. Learned something new 😄
steel magnet
i had to call windows support haha
west lantern
Haha, glad you found it 😄

Do NGINX reverse proxies count as networking in the context of this server? Because I could use some serious help with 'em.
high anchor
They only "redirect" HTTP requests so I don't think you can call it "networking"

If I have a modem into a network switch, is there any reason that I can't connect a PC to that switch, but everything works fine if I go modem -> switch -> wireless router -> cable to a PC?
high anchor
Probably for some IP address attribution, do your switch/modem gives IP by DHCP ?
night night
Yeah, it should set the dynamic IP and DNS automatically, it just goes in a loop of "identfying the network" endlessly lol

Im looking to buy new switches for 80 appartments, I would like the switches to support full duplex ethernet at 1Gigabit i have a budget of 2.7k €, and im wondering if this switch would do: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cisco-3750G-Series-48-Port-Gigabit-Switch-WS-C3750G-48TS-E/372165289377?epid=74067524&hash=item56a6c7a5a1:g:AgYAAOSw9KhaMNBr
I intend to use SFP-10Gbit to SFP-10Gbit for the trunk uplink?
rocky badge
two of those switches?
lilac zodiac
yes
rocky badge
and are you limited to ebay or can you order from amazon or other sources?
lilac zodiac
i can order from whereever i want
lilac zodiac
Not sure, im running a pfsense comunity Dell server blade as a router doing all the DHCP, Current switches are 4 of Catalyst 2950 Series Device Manager - switch1
from cisco
and a fifth extearnal switch
lilac zodiac
no the router uses 2 simplex base 1000 cat 5e to communicate to the external switch
rocky badge
ok
rocky badge
to the apartments?
lilac zodiac
no the router feeds back in to the external switch which has incomming fiber sfp module and an outgoing which goes into an older optic standard in trunk uplink through the 4 switches
lilac zodiac
University feed from DiE (danish internet exchange) -> External switch (SFP-1gigbit) >Router(ethernet simplex out)>External switch(ethernet simplex in) ->Uplink to 2950 switch (old optic standard-1gigbit) -> Uplink to 2950 switch (old optic standard-1gigbit) ->Uplink to 2950 switch (old optic standard-1gigbit) -> Uplink to 2950 switch (old optic standard-1gigbit)
I can send an image?
rocky badge
sure
is this the 2950? https://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/en/2950_specs.pdf
lilac zodiac
no, the 2950 is a cisco switch
rocky badge
ok
lilac zodiac
the router is an old dell server blade
Basically all the switches get their ip from the dell server
rocky badge
the 2950-24 is 10/100 is that ok?
lilac zodiac
yes on the ethernet
lilac zodiac
but id like the new switches to run 1000/1000
rocky badge
do you have a diagram?
lilac zodiac
I can make one, but it will take time i think it is quicker if i run to the hub and send an image
rocky badge
ok
lilac zodiac
the only preference i have is if it is within the budget and relative low maintenance, as I dont have the biggest voluntary squad, we are all amateurs and students so its hard to find help xD
rocky badge
lol
w/ the es48-500w its a 48 port switch so you'll need 2 of them to get at least 80 ports
they're 775$ each so ~1,500$ for the pair
the es48-500w has 2 sfp+ and 2 sfp with 48 regular gigabit rj45
lilac zodiac
SFP is 1gibit and sfp+ is 10?
rocky badge
yes
lilac zodiac
those would be perfect then
rocky badge
lilac zodiac
i think the cisco sg300-10 is sfp+
lilac zodiac
are they backwards compatible?
rocky badge
Yes, SFP+ cables are compatible to SFP ports and will work fine. SFP cables are not compatible to SFP+ ports.
lilac zodiac
or would i need an sfp - sfp+
rocky badge
I think they are.
lilac zodiac
cool then next year i will convince uni we need an upgrade for 10gigs xD
lilac zodiac
yeah but the incomming optic is only base 1000
rocky badge
oh
lilac zodiac
and people say sfp+ and sfp is no go together im trying to figure out what is right
rocky badge
is the isp giving you gigabit or 10 gigabit
lilac zodiac
gigabit, for now. we have 10gig on the other side of our module
rocky badge
ok
I dont think SFP+ can be plugged into SFP... but the other way around
the es-48-500w's sfp+ ports dont have to be used until you go sfp+ just use the sfp ports until then
lilac zodiac
this should do the trick right?:6m (20ft) Arista Networks CAB-SFP-SFP-6M Compatible 10G SFP+ Passive Direct Attach Copper Twinax Cable
rocky badge
to go into the es48-500w?
lilac zodiac
yes between the es48-500w and the SG300-10
rocky badge
but the sg300-10 isnt sfp+
rocky badge
yes
lilac zodiac
Before i buy optic modules do i need them to be of a certain type or can i rely on SFP alone to do the job?
rocky badge
hmm
lilac zodiac
I mean do i need to buy both optics and fibers for instance... or can I go cheap and go for coppers?
rocky badge
I think you can go copper?
lilac zodiac
I mean i found something called DAC direct attach cables which is like enclosures
for less than 10€
rocky badge
I think that would work
lilac zodiac
that would leave me at bit above 1400€
rocky badge
ok
lilac zodiac
I think ill go for it and then i still have money left over if something doesnt work, thank you so much for your guidance 😃
rocky badge
ok 😃

Man, I wish I could help, but i find IPv6 extremely strict in terms of what you can do with it, i only just managed to get IPv6 into subnets using routers 3 months ago, and I cant remember how.
rocky badge
ok
lilac zodiac
I think if the ISP does the DHCP, then you should set yourside to look for it, and if not, then set it to use DHCP.
What are you using for the advertisement?
rocky badge
AD = Active Directory
vagrant heath
Fuck using IPv6 for local networks
lilac zodiac
I assumed it was Advertisement of IPv6
rocky badge
lol
lilac zodiac
well i kinda agree with @vagrant heath
rocky badge
when joining the domain it looked for dns records from the ipv6 dns instead of the ipv4
lilac zodiac
hmm i havent done file servers before... and user servers i dont remember, besides back then i used ipv4. What are you working with
lilac zodiac
oh now i get it. but what is the problem
rocky badge
when my server goes down I cannot resolve domain names 😄
it said it couldnt find srv records for the domain controller
lilac zodiac
cant you just set a secondary server to be a public one?
rocky badge
thats when ipv6 was enabled
yeah I just did
now w/ ipv6 disabled it finds and joins the domain
lilac zodiac
for a second i thought you wanted drives or users to be listed as objects
rocky badge
hurry up https://i.imgur.com/F0wqvcG.png
lilac zodiac
But not sure so that means you will have to disable IPv6 every time?
rocky badge
no not unless I use my server's ipv6 address as the dns
lilac zodiac
Right makes sense
rocky badge
lilac zodiac
@rocky badge In theory i should be able to loose the sg300-10 right? I mean it doesnt actually do anything except act as feed for the trunk on the Router, and the uplinks
If i setup a trunk on 1 switch i should be able to get the pfsense to work directly with the switches right?
thick minnow
lilac zodiac
It doesnt support sfp+ and i know I have at least 1 gigabit so i should be good
rocky badge
Yes
