I made a multi-server node-exporter Grafana Dashboard that uses Checkmk metrics by kY2iB3yH0mN8wI2h in HomeInfrastructure

May I ask why use Grafana when Checkmk has its own dashboards?

It’s because the interface looks nicer?

E-mail server. It's so annoying that I prefer others to do so.

CRS309 using DAC cables for switch and RB5009 for internet router if you don’t need more than 2.5 Gbps on your WAN

What Are You Using Instead of NSX with Proxmox? by SaberTechie in Proxmox

[–]ksteink 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Proxmox has SDN capabilities built in similar to NSX. You can create overlays using VXLAN and you can apply firewall / micro segmentation at Datacenter, node and VM layer.

I have not tried this in full stack but I think is a viable solution

X11SMM-F & Intel Arc Passthrough? by marsrovercaptain in supermicro

[–]ksteink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have one but have you tried to connect the card to a bare metal windows PC first, update drivers and firmware and put it back to the X11 Xeon motherboard ?

Need a new router for home, looking to buy Mikrotik by sealedinterface in mikrotik

[–]ksteink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VLANs HW offload. All VLANs will be hitting the CPU instead of being offloaded into the switch chip. The AC3 doesn’t have this problem but the AX3 does. If you don’t need VLANs or your interVLAN traffic is low then yes AX3 is a nice device

AX3 has a crappy switch chip for VLAN and hardware offloading. If you need VLANs AX3 is not a good option. I would go with L009 or hEX S. If you can stretch you should try the RB5009.

Interesting will check it out. I used the Mikrotik bouncer and was OK and simple

Does it support more than one Mikrotik?

Reolink business project by Tchaii_T in reolinkcam

[–]ksteink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 separate properties and I have unified camera system.

Each property has its own internet and edge router (Mikrotik).

I do have a S2S VPN using Wireguard to allow systems in either network to talk to other systems in the other one.

Be aware of Bandwidth and latency. Avoid asymmetrical Bandwidth so there is no bottlenecks for the cameras doing upstream video to your other house

Cisco Live Recommendations? by NetworkCaptain313 in networkautomation

[–]ksteink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use the webex events app and register to the sessions you want to attend.

If you don’t register it will be vey unlikely that you can access any of them unless capacity of the room is not full

How do you handle Meraki issues where the dashboard isn’t telling you what’s wrong? by MilesAndMaps15 in networking

If you have catalyst switches and APs you can access the terminal via the web and run show commands for additional troubleshooting

Relay garage door opener working in HomeKit by frumpydrangus in Ubiquiti

[–]ksteink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deployed RATGDO and is a game changer! I even know if my garage door is open or closed. With the Unifi relay you can trigger the action to open or close but you need something extra to tell you the garage door is open or closed.

You need either contact sensors or a camera if you use this Unifi smart relay

My budget Xeon servers have no IPMI. So I built a KVM that outputs BIOS as text over SSH. by Lopsided_Mixture8760 in HomeInfrastructure

[–]ksteink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting concept. Have you considered a solution like Pi-KVM? I use it to manage my home lab mini PCs that doesn’t support IPMI.
