Network

Prelude Today I’m gonna talk about how you can leverage Traefik2, k3s, Cloudflare, and RaspberryPI to get the best out of your…apartment. After the image, I’ll go through the setup of everything needed! Why Traefik2 For those of you who never heard the word Traefik before, here it is: Traefik is an open-source Edge Router that makes publishing your services seamless. I already made some experiments in the past (look at my two-pieces series I run VSC in the browser and I am just fine - Part I and My team run VSC in the browser and they are just fine - Part II) and I’ve always been fascinated by the way Traefik just works....

Prelude A long long time ago (I can still remember as Madonna sang) I started to wrote some posts about the network. For those who missed the previous posts, you can read the introduction, the physycal layer and the datalink layer respectively. As a main source I use Computer Networks and TCP/IP Illustrated. In the previous posts I had to go into details about how some parts of the physical layer works but - by going forward through the layers - concepts belonging to separate historical standards - OSI and IP - will intertwine and this entails some troubles from a logical point of view....

A journey through the network - Layer 2 A month ago I started to wrote some posts about the network. For those who missed the previous posts, the introduction and the physycal layer. For the previous post I had to go into details about how some parts of the physical layer work but, by going forward with the layers, concepts belonging to separate historical standards - OSI and IP - will intertwine and this entails some troubles from a logical point of view....

A journey through the network - Layer 1 Before the Christmas holidays, I wrote an article about the network: yes. The network is that part of computer science that is no longer considered fundamental as it should, and I must admit that I learn it every day at my expense: as an old friend always says to me “the network is the concept on which everything is based, describes how the body works: after that, you can also become a gastroenterologist, but you will always need to know how the body works”....

A journey through the network - Introduction During the last year I understood one thing: sooner or later everyone should review network notions, so I decided to start writing articles about network fundamentals. As a main source I would use Computer Networks and TCP/IP Illustrated. In this article, I will talk about two important network architectures: the OSI reference model and the TCP/IP reference model. These two model has opposite characteristics, in particular:...

Predix Machine and how to configure them In September, waiting for a contract proposal from the company where I currently work, I wrote a tool for the (more or less) automatic configuration of Predix© Machine. Predix©1 is the platform created by GE for Industry 4.0, powered by CloudFoundry2, to securely connect machines, data, and analytics to improve operational efficiency, help you develop, deploy, and operate industrial apps at the edge and in the cloud....
