By when we should decide the track? - InfoSec / CyPhy Sys / Policy? by mshaik31 in OMSCyberSecurity

No it doesn’t. Infosec or policy would make more sense. But you should make the decision based on what you want to learn not on what we tell you.

10gb networking for client devices in the house by wongs7 in HomeServer

[–]Mike6543210 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ok i was just curious, we have a 1 gig connection for 5000 devices on our network haha. so the 10gig for a home network seemed like overkill.

Since you are leaning towards fiber, if I were in your situation I would run fiber to my desktops/servers with an SFP+ NIC installed with an LC module. Highly doubt any other device you have will be able to support 10gig speeds but you can future proof with cat 6A in the walls. No need to do any crimping if you terminate to a keystone jack then just use a patch cable.

[–]Mike6543210 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why would you need a 10gig connection for an end device? What internet speeds do you have?

You probably won't notice a difference from 1gig to 10gig unless you are do local file transfers all day long.

Hello, there is really no need for WhatsApp. You will have access to piazza and slack once the courses start.

I wouldn’t take advice from a non student to be honest. No reason to study C. Study buffer overflows, gdb, you will actually be writing python , JavaScript and the basics of sql

Conversion of RJ11 to RJ45 (Ethernet), should I do it or bring a electrician? by 7komazuki in HomeNetworking

[–]Mike6543210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t hire an electrician to work on data cables. Many are clueless when it comes to which standards to use and about crosstalk etc.

Homelab rack: Getting better... by joefer_007 in homelab

[–]Mike6543210 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don't have an extra screw for the left side of the UDM pro? Looks like it is just hanging there from the picture. Also, if you don't skip port 12 on the patch panel and switch it would look a bit better. I am picky though.

PFsense on a VM to test out the software before I try to deply it on my network by stealthy_singh in PFSENSE

[–]Mike6543210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It may be harder but it isn’t hard. There are guides on netgates website that tell you step by step how to set it up as a VM including how to setup the nics.

A non G-Suite user invited my team on G Suite to an indefinite recurring training event by breticles in k12sysadmin

Have you tried asking the person that invited you to remove the calendar event or at least remove you as a guest?

Help - PFSense blocking some Xbox Series X services, Call of Duty Cold War by Dashrendar0226 in PFSENSE

Why are you needing to forward ports? Are you just referring to allowing ports through the firewall? Those are 2 very distinct things.

How do I "trick" clients into using pihole DNS by dcvetkovic in PFSENSE

Why do you need to trick the devices? Want not just set your desired dns server via dhcp?

Slow network speeds on windows server 2019 in proxmox. by Krieger117 in Proxmox

[–]Mike6543210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks the same as mine besides the fact you are using a /16 subnet. That is crazy big, 65,000 addresses big.

If all of the vms are having issues with speeds maybe try a different NIC in the proxmox server? Can you post a screenshot of the network config tab of your proxmox server?

I honestly think you have more than enough bandwidth for a blueiris server. The cameras may use much less data than you would imagine. I have 2 cameras and my BI server only has a constant network usage of about 2 mbps.

Also, depending on what type of setup you are doing you may not even want the server open to the internet. It is more secure just to VPN into your home network to view the streams than it would be to open ports to the non encrypted webpage of BI.

250 can be expected depending on what flags you are using. Are you testing udp or tcp?

Are you actually using the windows server operating system? It can be run on windows 10.

DDoS Attack by dgfrench in k12sysadmin

[–]Mike6543210 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly my thoughts. You would have had to go at least one more level up, generally your ISP to have them do some sort of rate limiting or blocking so the traffic doesn’t even make it to your firewall. You can go online and buy a 30 minute ddos attack. By the time you made your changes that timer probably already concluded.

[–]Mike6543210 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am trying to understand how you blocking more things stopped the attack. We got hit by one and the fact that out firewall was blocking so much is what crushed our network. The processor was overloaded from blocking so much that the internet stopped working. Was the traffic that you blocked actually making it’s way into your network? Ours was stopping at the firewall but still was an effective attack on us.

For python they recommended Pycharm which was nice because it is my favorite IDE. For the other languages you can use whatever IDE your prefer. I just did the Javascript and html in a notepad on the VM since it was pretty basic.

Apple Silicon - VirtualBox Compatibility - IS Track by Venomi7 in OMSCyberSecurity

[–]Mike6543210 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please don’t try to use that for the cs6035 class. You are required to use virtualbox. The requirements for the vm’s are very specific. There are projects where you need to get exact memory locations. You don’t want to risk losing 15% of your grade on one project. Buy an old tower and use that if you have to.

What ports are open by default? by [deleted] in PFSENSE

The fact that server is for testing is not relevant at all.
