Anne of Green CablesIn this recorded work training, they are discussing the "AS's" (autonomous systems) and the auto-generated transcript keeps putting asterisks through the whole thing, I guess because it thinks they're spelling out a-s-s or saying asses? Stop this, that word is really important in a BGP training lol.<a href="https://noc.social/tags/NetworkEngineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetworkEngineering</a> <a href="https://noc.social/tags/TranscriptFail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TranscriptFail</a>

Colin Cogle :verified:Today, I am running IPv6 on my home network and I’m not having problems, just like every day for the past fifteen years.

MarkI don't think <a href="https://noc.social/tags/NetworkEngineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetworkEngineering</a> is that popular on Mastodon, but I'm posting here anyway. I'm starting a local meetup here in <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Toronto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> for Network Operators. A small NOG, in the vein of <a href="https://noc.social/tags/NANOG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NANOG</a> Feel free to join us -- for FREE -- in April <a href="https://tornog.ca" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://tornog.ca</a> <a href="https://noc.social/tags/NetEng" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetEng</a> <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Networking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Networking</a> <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Community" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Community</a> <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Meetup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Meetup</a> <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Local" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Local</a>

Bob YoungI just posted this controversial post on LinkedIn. Let the blocking begin. (It might happen here, too).“Hi Bob, I hope that you're well! Do you do migrations? I’m looking for someone who can help me with migrating my <number redacted> employee company from <Cloud Provider Name Redacted> to <Cloud Provider Name Redacted> and help us avoid any gotchas, as we will still be hosting our production site on <Cloud Provider Name Redacted> for the time being. I'm realizing that paying an expert in this case will save time and opportunity. Thanks much!”“<Name redacted>, thank you so much for thinking of me. In this instance, I’m not the right person for the job. I’d be the one to call if you wanted to migrate out of a commercial cloud service and maintain your operations in your own server room, or on your (owned) equipment in a private data center. You need someone with good knowledge of <Cloud Provider Name Redacted> cloud products. I studiously avoid an architecture that I consider fundamentally flawed.”If the current chaos in the USA has caused you to realize that it’s important to keep local control of your IT operations, I’m the Network Architect/Engineer who can help you with that.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CallMeIfYouNeedMe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CallMeIfYouNeedMe</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FIFONetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FIFONetworks</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ProjectManagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProjectManagement</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/NetworkArchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetworkArchitecture</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/NetworkEngineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetworkEngineering</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Policy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Policy</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CyberSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CyberSecurity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/InformationSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InformationSecurity</a>

Bob YoungSeveral of the engineers I worked with all week are from this power plant. I drove by it on the highway every day going to and from the Training Center. I'm doing my part to make the nation's power grid more secure and reliable by teaching new skills to the engineers who keep it operational.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CallMeIfYouNeedMe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CallMeIfYouNeedMe</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FIFONetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FIFONetworks</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/NetworkEngineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetworkEngineering</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cybersecurity</a>

Bob YoungHeading to Atlanta from Seattle this morning. Then I'll drive a bit north and check in to my hotel. Sunday is R&R, then I'll spend all next week working for a public utility. Hey, public utilities - I'm scheduling next year already, so contact me anytime now.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CallMeIfYouNeedMe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CallMeIfYouNeedMe</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FIFONetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FIFONetworks</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/NetworkEngineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetworkEngineering</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cybersecurity</a>

Bob YoungOne of the more subtle factors in the creation of technical debt is lack of professional growth. For example, a Network Administrator doesn’t continuously learn, has no mentor, and resists new technology and systems out of fear of the unknown. A lack of self-confidence. They stick with what they know, and the network doesn’t advance. In the larger analysis, this isn’t JUST the Net Admin’s fault – it’s also the CIOs fault, for not building growth opportunities into the Net Admin’s career path. The company’s network doesn’t grow and develop because the people in charge don’t grow and develop.Never stop growing and learning. Don’t wait for others to give you opportunities to learn. Take charge of your personal development.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/callmeifyouneedme" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#callmeifyouneedme</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/fifonetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fifonetworks</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/networkengineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#networkengineering</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/technicaldebt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#technicaldebt</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/continuouslearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#continuouslearning</a>

Bob YoungFear of being fired may indicate a toxic environment. Here’s an example.Retail operations were stopped by a brief network misconfiguration about a week after I was hired. As the Director of Infrastructure, I called in my Senior Network Engineer and asked him what happened. The outage was caused by a person – that he wouldn’t name.I asked, “Why on earth won’t you tell me who did it?”He replied, “It was an innocent mistake. They didn’t know it would have that effect, and I don’t want them to get fired for it.”Wow. This guy didn’t know me, but I now knew something about the culture I had inherited from my predecessor.I said, “I have no intention of firing this person. I want to make sure they’re educated about what happened, and understand good procedure for next time so we can avoid a duplication. By talking with this person, I can also find out if this is a broader issue that other people need to learn about. And this gives them an opportunity to help me understand what training they might need to help them grow in their job.”Mistakes will be made. Operations will be affected. But you don’t fire good people for honest mistakes. Willful negligence? Bye. But not for honest mistakes. When people make honest mistakes, the manager is more likely to be the point of failure, for not providing adequate training.THE LESSON If you’re in an environment where you’re afraid you might get fired for doing your best… If you’re given responsibilities without adequate training, and you’ll be blamed for failure… That place is toxic. It won’t get better with time, unless new leadership is brought in. To achieve contentment, you need to move on.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/career" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#career</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/leadership" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#leadership</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/networkengineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#networkengineering</a>

Bob YoungDo not disable IPv6. Manage IPv6. But do not disable it.If you're a network architect, network engineer, or network administrator: Master IPv6. If you're not up to speed on IPv6, you're late, and it's time to wrap your arms around it.Make it a personal and professional priority.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/networkadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#networkadmin</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/networkengineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#networkengineering</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/networkarchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#networkarchitecture</a>

Eric's Risk AssessmentSo how to approach learning about this? I needed to understand - what was wrong - how to fix it - how to defend against itInforming my approach: 1. first principles thinking from <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a>2. Stochastic systems comprehension from <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/NetworkEngineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetworkEngineering</a>3. Systems design thinking from <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/consulting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#consulting</a>4.
