Currently using HedgeDoc for taking notes, but it is lacking some features, so I am trying to find and host some alternatives and compare them. And I hope I can find some time to play with my Flipper Zero....
I am happy to share with you the new design of my blog.
New logo, new thumbnails, lots of CSS changes and everything is now hosted in a German DC.
The goal was to create a clean design and reduce the loading time even further.
Feedback is welcome.
Does fortigate not have a form of DMVPN like Cisco?
ADVPN (Auto-discovery VPN) seems to be the equivalent. https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortimanager/7.2.0/single-datacenter-for-enterprise/282533/advpn
Just curious why ISP/third party MPLS? Purely interest.
I guess it was easier at some point? - Taht was way before my time there. But we are going to replace the MPLS part with simple internet-breakout points on location and the the rest with SDWAN.
Also, did you find this purely from user complaining or have monitoring tool?
Purely from users complaining and other departments getting frustrated about why their stuff was not working (e.g. Citrix). The new FW had to be installed in a short time and 'everything' worked fine at first. Problems only occurred after some load was put on the network. We failed - as in network dep - by NOT doing a stress/limit test of the network and finding this problem immediately, and NOT implementing some kind of monitoring that would have notified us of all those lost packets and connections. We caught up, but we should have done it in the first place, because it is necessary.
I’m assuming using third party was supposed to offload the work/config from you?
Do you mean the ISP/MPLS provider? - If so, not really.
I want to get into Ansible and I am building a testing env for it - home lab with various switches and routers, Fortinet, Palo, and a proxmox host server and some remote VPS. One of my goals for Q1 '24. Today I am going to prep the switches.
Besides that, I want to host my own NFTY server and I hope that I can get it online within this week.
I am currently transitioning into a Security role at work. One question would be: what are the must-have tools for every blue team?
- Vuln-Scanner
- Logging/ SIEM-Server
- ...
public key authentication ... is king.
I agree that port knocking won't replace any other hardening method, but I thought I'd look into it since it gets recommended so often. Not a big fan either.
Learning things about Wireguard and implement it to secure my internet facing servers.
Being using rsync and borg for backups, but rclone is a great alternative and has even more functions.
Yeah, after more testing, we can say that the second IPStunnel was the issue. Re-worked the route over a single tunnel and the whole 100 Mbps are available again. Users are happy, I am happy. Even tho a little bit frustrating.
Thank you for your input!
I fully agree. Those tools are so useful! - But, not too familiar with s_client - will look it up.
Thank you for letting me know. It seems that adding a separate image removes the URL to the article. Interesting and might be a bug.

Yeah, notifications are really unreliable here. I've got another window for more stress test today. Going to post update later, or tomorrow. Focus on MTU/MSS
Same here
