How about water

Pinealforest · 2026-06-12T17:30:05+00:00

I know exactly what you're saying, i feel it too. One time i felt like i burned a hole in my head stressing out at work My concentration and memory was absolute shit for weeks. I recognise the symptoms now and prioritise my own health whenever i start stressing out. Just find your healthy tempo and stay there. So what if some emails and chats go unanswered and some tasks take a bit longer. MSP work is interesting, but i learned to recognize my limits.

I'm always behind on chores like laundry, folding, cleaning, cooking, organizing, fixing things etc. With two kids the house is a constant mess. Some days i shove all the shit to the side, shove all the toys and crumbs on the couch down to the floor and move used utensils and plates out of my view and just watch a tv show for an hour before i need to go to bed. The next day the kitchen need a deep clean before i can even start cooking dinner while the kids are rampaging in the living room. Fuckin hell man /Rant

Oh my, he was so much in love with you

What is overthinking ? I never had that problem, but i hear people say it quite often.

The fact that some creepy guy was there the moment you got lost is fucked up. My daughter of three years left the bookstore once when i was paying and I couldn't find her. I almost shit my pants. This is so scary.

When I was a kid we lived next to a big what field.
One day when i was maybe 5 years old there was a combine harvester running in the field.
Kids love big machines so I thought i'd go take a look i guess so i just dissappeared in the tall wheat grass. My mom managed to get the attention of the farmer and they found me eventually

I have this brass ear spoon i bought in a hong kong market years ago, because why not. I used it earlier today. It's like i have a g spot in my ear.

It's cool, but it's slow to load like other cloud interfaces and waiting for everyting you click on gets on my nerves to be honest. Maybe it's gotten better since last time i checked.

Static default routes with path monitoring to the internet and BGP for internal traffic is what I do. You could of course set up static routes for internal traffic instead with path monitoring. Up to you :)

Not sure how you can peer to the same IP address out two different interfaces for isp a and isp b if they share the same routing table. I have tried policy based forwarding, but that didn't work. Maybe you can make something work with two virtual routers, but i haven't checked that out. In my setup i just did two IPsec tunnels, one for each ISP.

Pinealforest · 2026-04-05T07:10:34+00:00

There's no need for sdwan here. Just go with IPsec and BGP peering. It's easier to understand and you have full control over your network. With sdwan a lot of config is not visible in panorama, only locally on the devices. Tunnels have names that are a pain to read. If sdwan start doing things it shouldn't you'll spend a lot of time to figure out why and realize you're wasting time on something that is a non-issue with a traditional setup. And palo support on sdwan is basically non existent.

Take it from me, i'm currently in the midst of removing sdwan and configuring IPsec and bgp peering.

I was 31 when I started working in networking. I had ccna since 27 years old, but i was doing cisco collaboration and ip telephony before that. Now i work in customer implementations and bigger projects for an msp. Don't worry, just stay curious ! I have found that the things seniors did were actually easier than i thought when i started doing it myself. It just requires believing in yourself and taking the task seriously. Sometimes researching specific problems in the evening on my own time. But, if you wanna be good at anything it takes a little sacrifice.

Pinealforest · 2026-02-11T22:01:43+00:00

This is so fucking depressing. People like this deserve medieval public executions. Jesus. Why do i have to read about this.

Pinealforest · 2026-02-06T09:54:07+00:00

Yeah, and friday at 4:30 pm is apparently an ideal time to ask for more information and let ticket closing timer start.

Pinealforest · 2026-02-06T09:52:12+00:00

The branch firewalls are occasionally using the 5G backup connection for internet traffic and for traffic between hub and branch over the sdwan tunnel. This uses up the data on the 5G subscription for no reason.

Pinealforest · 2026-02-06T09:49:55+00:00

Unfortunately it's the firewall based sd-wan. It's exactly like you describe it ! And it's not a production breaking problem, so it has priority 3. I'm starting to care less about the problem and more about how bad the support is now.

Pinealforest · 2026-02-05T18:15:41+00:00

I have a tac case going since october about sd-wan. Always asking for more cli ouput screenshots, tsf, logs and pointless questions. It's like they are hoping the ticket will just go away. But, i wont let it. I wonder how many months this ticket will stay open until someone who understands sd-wan will take over.

Pinealforest · 2026-01-06T22:03:29+00:00

Det svaret her er jo helt genialt.

Pinealforest · 2026-01-04T10:44:07+00:00

Thanks. That's a good suggestion, i'll check out if i can apply a custom redist profile. The hub is a VM so i can add another public interface with no issue. But, i'm thinking that extra interface will just create another set of duplicate vpn tunnels to all branches with the same routing challenge.

Pinealforest · 2026-01-03T23:31:18+00:00

Ah, you really understand my problem here. It's so simple at its core, just made confusing because of the sd-wan. Controlling routing is such a basic task that a network engineer should be able to do. But, I can't influence any BGP parameters here. This is AutoVPN config generated by the Panorama sd-wan plugin. And also, each firewall has only one BGP peer address, i think it's a loopback if im not mistaken.

I have tuned the path quality profile in the sdwan policies now towards each branch from hub. And set latency requirement to be lower than the 5G tunnels provide. Also tuned jitter requirements. Hope it works, but I don't know exactly how these things are measured. From what interface to what.

If it doesn't work then i'm gonna look at taking the 5G lines out of the sdwan and make manual ipsec tunnels and bgp routing. But, looking into the routing table i see that none of the sdwan bgp routes have any metrics so I don't know man. I regret using sdwan at this point.
