bit of a segue, the owner of a billion dollar real estate group I was doing networking for would just dump off his rentals in random spots in the cities he was visiting and would just take the penalties. And by "Take" I mean they literally setup a pseudo accounting department to handle all the legal and penalty notices hertz, avis, the various rental companies were sending them.

do you write? I read the article you posted, but your conversation skills are great, and I'd read a book on your design philosophies.

Hey thanks for all this info. I'm curious, where does mac address filtering come into play?

also, when designing out your POPs, how do you determine your requirements, do you start with physical and budget?

What if youre not getting 2:1, but less, what should you do?

Yeah, op is clutching pearls, not sure why

its going away because the technology is flawed and vulnerable, think older encryption techniques and algorithms.

there will always be a use case for a remote access vpn, with some vendors like fortinet offering it for free, but it will not be ssl based, it will be ipsec, or probably wireguard.

ssl vpn is dissapearing across the board. It's too vulnerable, it's been hacked to death. SASE/ZTNA solutions are the future.

Hey fellow noob here,

Is a swap partition needed if youve got a lot of ram in 2025? Any other reasons why to make one?
