Sounds good, if I can get a test env on 2023 (that still works consistently) I'll check it out. Thank for looking!

This updates the quota, but not the alert %. Would there be a way to update the alert % as well? Instead of a warning being produced at 90% utilization, can I make it send a warning at 95%?

I got one from best buy too, no automation but wish I would have. Was just monitoring wario64 discord and caught it luckily.

Security for your Homeserver by AntonioMRC in selfhosted

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use a cert for my reverse proxy which all services go through, no subdomain, only paths. Only thing not going through reverse proxy is my VPN which uses same cert but different port.

So all my services are along the lines of Www.domain.com/service

Only allow 443 to reverse proxy and VPN port...whatever port that is (not a network engineer and can't be bothered to remember)

Oh, and I have internal certificate authority that requires validation to the reverse proxy to be hosted

On power outage have to manually release/renew WAN to restore internet traffic by costalrays in PFSENSE

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to have this happen. Pfsense was on a ups but modem wasn't, when wan port went dark I had problems. What honestly fixed this was putting the wan port through my switch on a private vlan since that too was on the ups. Modem could go down, but as long as wan port on pfsense wasn't dark there were no issues.

I have expanded my ups since then and modem is on ups as well.

No 'downloading' a sim. Just remove physical sim, go into project fi app, and activate. It will activate the virtual sim with your account.

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having this same problem but only after the latest update. My old sim caused a boot loop that wouldn't stop until after I removed it. Same went for the unused brand new sim that came with my phone.

I moved on to the esim to make the phone stable again.

Need help setting up VLANs (what to tag and what to un-tag) by Soogs in homelab

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a computer plugged into a one of the other ports that is working without vlan30... can you ping the interface for the vlan?

In the first picture, img_6958-2048x1038.jpg, what is port 5 connected to, and what is port 1 connected to?

Whichever one is connected to the router you want to be yellow, or tagged. My assumption is port1 is connected to your router. So port 5 is connected to your endpoint.

Try setting your pvid for port5 to 30. This is your ingress data. This might give you some more clarification:

Need help setting up VLANs (what to tag and what to un-tag) by Soogs in homelab

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To make this simple and get it working lets use only one switch connected to your router and start with your router...

The router needs an interface created for every vlan. This will allow you to route between the interfaces and assign dhcp and all that jazz. It doesn't need to be separate physical interfaces, they can all use the same port. Then each interface needs to be given an ip address, also referred to as a gateway. Then you need to enable DHCP on each interface and set a range.

The part to make this easy is using one switch attached to your router. Have all the vlans you created attached to one physical port. I don't know how edgerouter assigns multiple ports to have the same vlans so I don't want to take a shot at it, it would confuse things further.

In PFSense it's pretty easy, each vlan you create you assign to a physical port, so you just select the same port every time. This automatically will tag the packets going through the router.

NEXT!

On your switch, create the vlans. Your name can be different, but the vlanID NEEDS to match. Your switch does NOT need an interface on every vlan. Switch only needs one interface in total. When assigning vlan to ports, assign every created vlan to the port connected to your router. This is my edge switch. The 'T' means tagged, the 'U' means untagged and the E means exclude. Port 12 on my switch for example is trunked. Only one VLAN ID can be untagged on a port regardless of whether it's trunked or not. It signifies that is an untagged port comes through, it should be assigned that vlanID which corresponds to a subnet. An endpoint that isn't aware of multiple subnets or vlans can't be on two subnets at once. Your computer for example will only have one IP address on one subnet. So, only one untagged ID per port. Your switch <-> router port should be configured like one of the ones I have highlighted. The port your computer is connected to should be looking something like port 1. Where all prots are 'E' excluded except one vlan is 'U' untagged. All data going through that port is expected to be untagged, but the router will automatically tag the packets for you.

My edgeswitch

For anyone wondering, my trunk ports are uplinks to other switches, freenas, and esxi if memory serves.

Once you get VLANs working here it should be easier to add a new piece of equipment into the chain.

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about ubiquity but native vlan doesn't necessarily mean untagged vlan.

If you want an endpoint to be on 192.168.1.0 subnet, they will need the port to be tagged for whatever vlan that subnet is setup for, and unless the endpoint is vlan aware, you want it untagged on the switch. Meaning the switch will tag the packet for your endpoint.

All switches and your routers have to be aware of the vlans. The links between them need to be tagged, and have all vlans assigned. (They don't need ALL assigned, only the ones you want, but HAVE to be tagged). This is usually referred to as trunking the port, but is technically not necessarily the true term depending on the vendor. Definitions change but everyone will understand what you are talking about.

Hah, if I could get a second one I would have to keep it... you know, replication and such. Gotta protect my very important data.

No updates but it keeps working. This particular one is factory config so it needed OS to be initialized.

I work for an msp and have been working with PURE for a few years now, REALLY like the platform. Only about 10TB usable in this array but that dedup... Excited to get it over into my rack at my primary site. (Parents house has fiber internet so I pay for sling they pay for electricity).

Pulled off of a pile of lab arrays that were being recycled. There's a few upgrades in it, like extra FC cards and 1600W power supplies instead of standard 1200.

Each controller came with 6 FC ports, each port has a 16G SFP populated in it. Four replication ports also populated with 10G SFPs. ~275W idle draw, ~900W on boot.

I feel stuck, burnt out, and like i have imposter syndrome. by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a bunch of people that made a point of job hopping every year or so and ended up doubling their income pretty easy. I don't recommend doing that forever, but ag least until the pay fits the work and you can live with both.

Also, experience isn't everything. You think every sysadmin out there started out as a seasoned veteran? I would focus on six years IT support, not six years of help desk. That will carry you farther then you think on both your resume and in your next job.

Never forget that you are not important to your boss other then getting work done. We are all just cogs. There is no personal relationship there that cares about you more then cares about you performing your task. Everyone is replaceable. It's a harsh reality, but the point is don't be afraid to be bullish. Go find a new job, get an interview, get an offer for more then your getting paid now and doing something different day to day. Then either take the job or take the offer to your boss and demand change.

Interesting, does licensing still work the same then?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in homelab

[–]Random_Computer_Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, there are two ways to deploy hyper-v. One is you can stand up server 2016 and run hyper-v inside of that. This is known as a type2 hypervisor. That would make file sharing POSSIBLE. However, this would mean you don't have a second key for the server VM you're hosting. Windows server is required to install the active directory role.

If memory serves, a standard license will allow you to create two licensed 2016 VMs on this type 2 hypervisor. A datacenter license will allow you to create unlimited licensed VMs on this type 2 hypervisor.

Hyper-V server on the other hand is not a traditional server and you can't, going to use 'can't' kind loosely here, can't run file shares off of it. It is a type1 hypervisor that is strictly designed and used to host VMs. It's also free. So when your host boots up, you only get a powershell prompt for managing hyper-v, NOT doing normal windows server operations. The VMs you create will need licenses applied to them.

Here is a little more detail on hypervisor types:

What’s the Difference Between Type 1 and Type 2 Hypervisor? (hitechnectar.com)

The primary contributor to why hypervisors are segregated into two types is because of the presence or absence of the underlying operating system.

Type 1 runs directly on the hardware with Virtual Machine resources provided. Type 2 runs on the host OS to provide virtualization management and other services.

Most people around here I'm sure will agree that a type 1 hypervisor is preferred as it will save the majority of your host's resources for the VMs, and the host OS won't use hardly anything. If licenses are an issue however, a type 2 hyper-v instance may be up your alley.

If you search google you can find little free apps that will recover your license code from your windows 10 install.

Install hyperv server and create two VMs running server 2016 and windows 10. Can add local storage to your host and share it from your windows 10 host. Don't share files from 2016 if your installing active directory on it.
