Wow gross. Glad you got out, I doubt many of your colleagues did well from the buyout.

Well post the call recording on LinkedIn if you do

Yes, I attribute security significant misconfigurations to a lag between new service deployments and a relevant review by network security (in a business environment. At home it's just me.)

So I'm running Milestone VMS, Synology NAS and maybe in a day a minecraft server for the kids, which should all be available outside my home. I'm using the mikrotik HexPOE which is my main router/firewall.

Very little is changing over time... I have a proliant salvage server running proxmox with some hosts and the router only port forwards to an NGINX proxy manager instance for the web interfaces on those hosts. I run a synology NAS separate from the proliant hardware that runs through the proxy.

I know I don't understand it all, and i'm open to suggestions.

Fun fact I made my sales team standardize on Omada for all network hardware we are providing (highrise security systems, so SDN is usually out of scope) I was considering replacing my ubiquiti AC Pro soon, but I didn't settle on a new model of access point yet. What are the mikrotik wifi APs bad at? if it's meshing I will only have one.

I didn't look at The Dude before, but it doesn't seem depreciated?

forgotten

that's why that guy seemed so unburdened! I understand him better now

Years ago, another trade worker on a construction site was using their wifi stuff, and mentioned using it at home. I went and picked up the hexPOE router and i'm pretty happy with it, but all i'm doing is port forwarding and I set up a rule to capture all DNS requests and shunt them into my pihole.

The documentation is pretty spiffy and public.

I'm not really sure if this seems good because I don't know any better, or it's good because it's good.

edit Gli-net seems nice, but i'm a stickler of using a WAP separate from the router. I know I pay more.

Any opinion on Mikrotik?

Twenty years ago when I was 13, I started doing web stuff. This was back when everything was super simple, so everything to get a webserver up was super manual. I'll mention port forwarding at my current job and there's this slice of people that are 28-40 years old that know what I'm talking about.

A burner phone with a hotspot would have been cheaper.

Oh damn

I guess you're normal

Hey don't be so hard on yourself

You can also use it to fool the rubes around you
