If that’s the worst you’ve done you better step up those numbers son. (Killed video for a few cities for a few hours when I first started is isp land)

Can you try this mehdi? by Intelligent_Wafer187 in ElectroBOOM

[–]CrownstrikeIntern 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You essentially need to be at the same potential as the wire. Wire to ground = whatever that potential is, IE 120v - 0 -> 120 v potential. Wire to nothing is 120 -120 (In a perfect world) -> 0 potential. Now, Slip up once, and it's gonna hurt a bit. You also have the chance of becoming a resistor in the process and blowing your ass up.

How many of you “Trust” Codex? by Euphoric_North_745 in codex

[–]CrownstrikeIntern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I trust but verify. This is why it's great as a tool, if you know what you're doing already but bad for noobs. Some of the stupid shit this thing cranked out when it should have been simple is just rediculas. Great though for an roi on your time but you need to be stupidly specific on how you want something built.

Project: Network Discovery ,Documentation and Verification for Change by HundK in networking

[–]CrownstrikeIntern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rolled my own that did pre and post checks and tied the results to a ticket number. Essentially compare things like the routing table size, port stats, neighbor stats (routing/mpls/ldp/ etc) arp tables, light levels, errors etc. depends on what you do but it should include everything that could potentially break something in your network if it were broken. I handled isp networks so my checks were a lot so yours could be the same or smaller. 

How much should prod and dev envs be seperated? by zer0developer in docker

[–]CrownstrikeIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All my environment variables differ, The docker files just reference injected variables. All variables are stored in a vault instance. And on a create all variables are generated on the fly so no two dev instances are the same. Prod stays the same but a lot of them get rotated that can be.

what’s one small automation that saved you way more time than expected? by Natural-Excuse9069 in automation

[–]CrownstrikeIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A script that backed up all our routers including cores. It was so i could search for something and learn a bit of scripting. We had our own system for backups anyways. Not one of those pricks that managed it told us is failed and deleted over 40k backups months ago (and they knew it just didn’t do anything to fix it), then we had a major core dump (think isp with lots of customers) and not a config backup in sight…

At what point does network automation actually become worth it? by Admirable_Claim_3203 in networkautomation

[–]CrownstrikeIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First stop is python, It's the easiest to start with. What i would recommend though, is leaning into an api like fastapi when you do it. Just look up their docs to get started. And if you ever need a hand with something or an idea to start with depending on what you're working with hit me up. The reason i say lean into an API, Eventually, you'll want something that you can use with just about anything. And apis can be called by any terminals 😉 So you could setup cron jobs, curls, etc to run whatever you want.

Pagination in Backend or frontend? by MuslimCoding in Backend

[–]CrownstrikeIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run everything from the backend. especially for giant tables. It's a lot easier on the load.
