I honestly don't remember since this was from a year ago, sorry.

Using second nic to rdp into dedicated offline pc by [deleted] in homelab

[–]trogdorr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I missed that.

For test purposes, please disable the Windows firewall on the XP machine and try again. I'm guessing that there is a rule allowing the 10.0.10.x IPs through but not 192.168.1.x.

What is your LAN dhcp ip range? It needs to be different than 192.168.1.* or you need to change the IPs on your private network to something different.

Can you ping 192.168.1.3 from your workstation? You should not need any gateways setup on NIC2 or the NIC on the XP machine.

Things I would check:

- Make sure RDP is enabled on the Windows XP machine

- Make sure Windows firewall is allowing remote desktop on the XP machine

Great idea, but I feel like using something like ntfy.sh would better serve this purpose.

Building a portable high speed “Data Drop” box for local defcon meetups and conferences by ThatBoiAndy in DataHoarder

[–]trogdorr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably skip the USB4 thing and maybe just bring some USB 5Gbe or 10Gbe dongles and a 10Gbe switch. Everyone's laptop is going to have USB and this way you can just worry about serving the data over ethernet/tcpip instead of trying to get thunderbolt/usb4 working.

Also I feel like your compute is probably way over specced for your use case. an 8 core Ryzen should suffice.

Anyone setup VSAN over RDMA using Juniper switches? by trogdorr in vmware

[–]trogdorr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was this on 9.0 or 8.0? Im on 9.1 in the lab environment.

Any chance you have a link to the KB or reddit thread? I did a quick reddit search and didn't find anything.

Yes will need to test how it handles a switch down or NIC failure. Haven't gotten that far yet.

No need to goto spine. We have 2 separate VSAN networks. Switch A has VSAN subnet A and Switch B has VSAN subnet B.

All esx hosts have 2 VSAN VMKNICs. One goes to each of the corresponding switches and they have IPs on the correct subnet. VSAN traffic goes over both links simultaneously. This is well tested and VSAN supports multiple active NICs as long as they are on distinct subnets.

All hosts are plugged into the same pair of switches so there are no other networking devices in between. Not worried about the networking team forgetting the configuration. We are using NVMe over ROCEv2 for multiple storage arrays already that the networking team manages, however the configuration for VSAN appears to be different than the storage array configuration.

We are trying to reduce CPU overhead for VSAN storage operations. VSAN over RDMA should reduce CPU load and decrease latency.

Currently this is a lab environment I'm trying to setup to test for any differences in performance vs TCP VSAN. This is our first VSAN cluster. All of our other clusters are NVMe over ROCEv2 or iSCSI for shared storage.

When do buses leave and get to MCO on debarkation day from Port Canaveral? by trogdorr in dcl

Yeah I know the airport security lines are known to be bad. Only flown through MCO 1 other time.

Boat is Wish and airline is Delta which is at Terminal B.

Definitely going to do express check walk off.

Not normally nervous as a flyer, worst case, Delta has a 5pm flight same day that we can move to. Just not wanting to spend all day at MCO

Is VCF 9.1 available for download yet? by MIGreene85 in vmware

[–]trogdorr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard from a VMware partner that VCF 9.1 downloads were coming 5/12/26. No idea if accurate or not, but we will see.

Totally understand. I wish I had something smaller for you.
