basically you have to update the planet definition and also include the public identity into the fold. Then they find each other and are online. I will bow try to make it work as a cluster. Keep this post updated...

The tablet connects to the Network, with a Static IP of 192.168.128.103
the Ip of the AP is showing as 192.168.2.41 ..

But it is connected..
is that normal??

sure, it can be. All depends on the routing.

I assume you have the AP connected somehow to the second port on the ER-L, and that it's getting DHCP from that, but that same switch also has a connection to the secondary NIC in your Server, so the static IP'ed traffic can get around on that. You've kinda created a bridge between the networks via the AP, and if the password is the default, that could be a problem.

password is not default.

Literally just got off of a meeting where we put the last piece in place for our first in house POS system, BTW 😉

i'm interested.

Not for hospitality industry. But this is our first foray into POS and crossing over industries in the future is obviously very possible.

you made it for the Vets?

Yes

You guys should look into making pharmacy software, you could likely make a killing, and be light years ahead of the seemingly junk crap that's out there now.

That's a great idea. And my family is all pharmacists, so we have like endless direct access to resources.

I really don't know the requirements for the interconnectedness - which this are... but yeah, so many of the systems are just old as F.

Corrected the title to FreePBX instead of FeePBX, lol. Although that name would be useful somewhere, too.

@Grey said in Private DNS architecture?:

This all sounds very complicated. Why not use the DNS and DHCP at your datacenter and turn off all the others, and then give the routers an ip helper address config? Does your network hardware not support that?

@Grey It may very well be too complicated. At the same time it has to be fast, robust and the parts have to be able to work independently if a VPN link goes down.

Ok, cut the line to the internet. Can they still function? What doesn't work? What gets cached at your app server? How much data is transferred when the line returns?
How much actual resilience does the business need vs what they can sustain, and what's the risk? Has anyone answered these questions before?

The diagram is a simplified. It's only internal company traffic that goes over the VPN in the drawing. The data centers also serves other clients that are not connected over VPN. That actually their primary job - they are serving customers, not just internal workloads.

When it comes to resilience and risk, it's the data centers that have to be up and running. So they have redundant everything. The rest is just ordinary SMB stuff.

PS. Also in the data center we are doing HA in the application layer and not the hypervisor layer. So having two DNS servers made sense to me since that will be natural HA in the application layer.

Remina is great on Linux platforms, but the question for me is why is this a need?

This seems like everyone could and should manage this independently. All you need is DNS name or IP to initiate a remote connection. In my opinion, it's better for IT team to know exactly where they are trying to go instead of clicking the wrong button or sending the wrong command

Yeah I agree. I'm assuming it's for syncing credentials across devices. Which means you'd have to trust their cloud service with your system credentials.

While yes, it would be nice to sync the entire session - connection and UserID / password. I'm more concerned with the connection itself. Yes, I can keep track of the addresses - but it gets to be a pain.. UserId / Passwords are different. I could care less - I mainly want the address; IP address or dns name..

I mean, honestly what's the difference between a word document/text file and the syncing at that point?

Right. An besides, even Windows has native SSH now. So why use anything else anyway?

Right, I've not used PuTTY in quite some time. Not that it isn't good, I just don't see the point of installing third party software that doesn't do anything any better than the built in tool that is always there and ready to go. And quite frankly, I find PowerShell's terminal to work far better for me.

I can't stand PuTTY. I'm not sure why, I've just always hated it.

I hate that it lacks a local shell and you have to launch the damn thing for every connection!

Maybe that's what it is. Tunnelling is a pain, I just find it awkward.

That, too. Other than doing a good job rendering fonts and being available back in an era when nothing else was, PuTTY really doesn't offer anything positive.

ZeroTier (with Flow rules) + RDP is how I solved this for my clients.
Can you make a guide I'd be interested in that read.

I wrote this a long time ago. It was to run on my EdgeRouter but I also mention how you can use it with another internal device.

Obviously this assumes you're using Cloudflare.

@BraswellJay said in iperf results wired vs wireless ...:

Am I wrong in thinking that the difference shouldn't be that great?

The expectation is that the difference will be huge in most cases.

@black3dynamite said in Sangoma opened a Jitsi meet server also:

With these common meet.domain.com setups, I wonder if there's a way to do a query of domains that starts with meet?

Not easily, no.

Just an observation but I wonder what the "shortcode" is short for, when it's basically exactly the same as html?

Here is an example.

This:

Results in this:
cfd058dc-d189-4d81-9f19-3926facb7d76-image.png

So "This:" is the about.md file, where you have both the html img line and shortcode?

Oh, FFS. The image tag was only there to show him what happens to HTML. Pay attention.

Yeah, I figured. Nothing wrong with verifying something that looks contradicting, though. There's not enough of that around here tbh, too much assumption.

Okay, I’ll give you that.

@rtfm said in ESXi cluster, advice needed:

BTW your comment about how "system integrators" try to sell bare metal and certifications instead of brains was more than appropriate!

It's where all the money is. As a consultancy... I can sell you a full IT department for a year. But I have to pay those people and my profits are small, but they can provide you with a wealth of work, advice, etc. building, maintaining, and supporting whatever you need.

But for the same money, I could just sell you a product that you don't need, that sounds good but doesn't do a good job for you, and earn easily triple the profits because I don't need to pay staff.

So the challenge is, if I resell those products, how do I make myself "do the right thing" when the customer is literally paying me only if I screw them over? The customer effectively demands, through how they pay and choose solutions, to only get the bad solutions. As a company, it's all but impossible to resist selling the product because the customer never knows the difference, and you earn so much more money as a salesperson than in provided sound IT. That's why companies like NTG and Bundy Associates simply don't sell any product at all, so that that incentive to do so isn't there at all. Because if it was, it's all but irresistable.

That did it.

Putting the [] around the file name made it all work right.

@scottalanmiller said in Does intra-VM traffic leave the host?:

What's the use case here? Maybe there is another approach that would be effective?

Mostly isolate and allow some well know traffic on appliance type VMs and VMs that we don't admin - without having to put each workload in it's own subnet.

Hmmm... I see why you might want it.

@Dashrender said in Soft Phone issues:

HP sure in the heck isn't local in Omaha, they hire contractors to go to businesses to replace motherboards, etc for the onsite component.

NTG got much of its early business being those "local" guys for HPE, Dell, etc.

And funny enough... even being the "local guy" meant that our Rochester, NY guys covered like eight states. When those big companies are sending their "local guy", they are driving hundreds of miles much of the time unless you are in a huge city.

@WLS-ITGuy said in Aastra phone replacement:

I don't see a firmware for the T54W nor is the EXP50 available.

These phones are basically new since October or so. They will not be in EPM anytime soon because of how that has traditionally worked. The device manufacturer has to sing an agreement with Sangoma (Schmoozecom) to get a device supported. I assume, but do not know for a fact, that the agrement includes monetary compensation also, as anything in EPM is fully tested by Sangoma also, and testing takes manpower (money).
