This blood is flowing through a warped mind.
I’m currently running pfsense, and then mikrotik and ubiquiti switched and ubiquiti AP’s. I’m slowly removing the ubiquiti switches and moving to mikrotik as I’m upgrading to 10gbe. Mikrotik switches have a reputation of being reliable, capable, and cheap-ish. So far I like them. While I love ubiquiti’s single pane of glass approach with the unifi controller, I wanted to get away from that a bit. I work in IT, and most things I encounter don’t have that… And are configured via cli and or web interface. When I built my home network I jumped into ubiquiti for the ease. Now I’m back tracking for more learning.
Probably not a bad idea. I’m in the process of upgrading to 10gbe.i have all the nics, and a switch… Just waiting on cables. Once I have the cables, I’ll be getting my cluster together. Right now I just run my three nodes as separate instances.
Thank you to the dev’s as always!! I’ve updated one node so far, and it went flawlessly! Two to go! Keep up the great work, devs!
I’m using Tumbleweed on various desktops, but I also use Leap. I use Leap on a couple different apple machines that I have, as leap seems to play better with Apple wireless adapters (stupid Broadcom adapters).
Either way, both work well but I do prefer tumbleweed.
I think it’s as equally important to remember; A backup is not back up… Until you’ve restored from it.
Test your backups, folks.
There’s probably others. Just a quick off the top of my head list.
Thanks for the input. Yeah, my research has been more linux specific. My feeling was that Intel would perform well under linux, but browsing around most of what I’ve been finding are posts from a year ago, and nothing more current. I’m assuming that the cards (and more specifically driver support) would only get better in time (assuming it’s not the next optane… haha).
