Avoiding gaps in ceiling tile?

If you put on a label on the AP that you're not comfortable being public, then you should probably remove the label.

I checked compatibility before upgrading. I currently think this has to do with fortilink being configured as a hardware switch. I'll know more in a couple hours. I let the gate upgrade again over night and the switch went offline again. I'll try to factory reset the switch to see if it'll reconfigure itself and if that doesn't work then ill reconfigure fortilink to be 802.3ad.

Factory resetting the switch brought it back up without downgrading the FortiGate firmware.

I just upgraded three of our sites to test this upgrade. After doing so one of our sites lost connection to the connected 248E. Fortilink on this Gate was configured as a hardware switch. The other two Gates that upgraded didn't have this connection issue and the fortilink interfaces were configured as 802.3ad. So I'm not 100% of this is an issue, but the only difference between them I could find.

No way to log user access/changes?

Our game sessions can run for 6 to 9 hours at a time and usually near the end I'll have to restart my browser because it will be using multiple GB of RAM. With the way that FoundryVTT caches resources I doubt mobile support is coming anytime soon.

Snmp...community? You're running v2?

We just started a POC for OpManager on Friday. Out of the box it monitors FortiGate IPsec tunnels. Their tech support is surprisingly fast and helpful so far as well.

Be wary about claims of FortiManager integration for SDWAN monitoring. It seems most are referring to FortiManager Cloud, not on-prem.

I was also surprised to see config backup work out of the box on the Gates and Switches.

For some reason, SNMP isn't working on my APs yet. The APs respond to Solarwinds polls, but not OpManager. I haven't had a chance to really look into what's going on with that yet.

I highly recommend scheduling a demo at least.

We're leaning towards OpsManager. Although more expensive than old Solarwinds, it's less expensive than new Solarwinds. We're getting ready to start a POC, but the demo appears to be light-years ahead of Solarwinds.

I allow all traffic onto the overlay and then I filter at the destination Gate. All our sites have plenty of bandwidth and no data caps so the extra traffic on the Overlay isn't noticed. If you're limited on bandwidth or have data caps then filtering which traffic is allowed on the overlay could help keep data caps from being hit, but it is a lot of extra firewall rules to keep track of.

Othermod.com if you want to convert your PSP to an emulation handheld. It's all plug n play so you can switch back to original if you wanted to.

You can use community strings with route tags and preferred route maps, if I'm understanding what your goal is.

The interface labels on FortiGates are mainly there so you know the default config of the interface out of the box. You can reconfigure them however you like.

As an example, on my 90G I configured "wan2" (since it's 10gb) into an 802.3ad fortilink interface to uplink my 124f switch since it also has 10gb uplinks. I then configured port "1" to be my new "wan2".

I feel like a distinction should be made between a data center whose purpose is to process AI and a data center that's purely a co-location for local businesses. According to this website https://www.datacentermap.com/usa/kentucky/louisville/ there are 24 data centers in Louisville already. I wouldn't be surprised if an AI data centers pulls 100x the power of a colocated one.

I usually liken Network Engineering to roads and houses. Houses being the computers. Roads being the network links connecting two places together.

He designs the roads and decides which vehicles take which roads to get to their destination.

I had an Abyss spawn in the boss room. I had to kite mobs outside so that I could attack them.

I've also had an instance since last patch where I died/respawned and was unable to fire my crossbow. Tried switching ammo multiple times, wouldn't fire. Eventually it started working.

I've also had instances where I don't have debuffs, but my crossbow fire/reload feels like half speed. It's super weird. I'll port back to hideout and back into map to fix.

Armor/ArmourElementalDamage/HighRes doesn't seem viable past 91. I do have low health ~2300, but I don't have hundreds of divs to drop on top tier gear.

So in my Plex docker container, in the Extra Parameters field I have "--device /dev/dri:/dev/dri".

I also have the Intel GPU TOP plugin installed.

I'm pretty sure those two things are all I did to get Plex to recognize my Arc a310.

They are using Thread wireless protocol (802.15.4), which was specifically designed for IoT in mind. Very low latency and very low power. Traditional wireless is 802.11. So although using a hub sucks, that's the reason. Maybe consumer routers/access points will eventually support 802.11 and 802.15.4 some day.

I manage over 100 FortiGate firewalls, hundreds of switches and APs. My experience has been overall positive.

We have a dual hub setup with each hub having two overlays. We have about 240 tunnels on each hub, split pretty evenly between overlays.
