Expanding and acquiring additional resources
I will be expanding my current PoP’s RAM up to 128GB in the upcoming weeks, also will be getting a 40 gig port. Also working out plans to add an additional physical hardware node to the current PoP for resiliency. I need some SSD servers and BGP tunnels to expand […]
SoYouStart Dedicated Server
SoYouStart(SYS) is a subsidiary under OVH. They are no strangers to people. However, during the holiday time, they had a no-setup fee special for monthly subscriptions. You usually only get the server without setup-fees if you did multi-month subscriptions. I was able to get a SYS-1-SAT-32 instance during the final […]
Busy holiday season
Haven’t done much with the servers. But I did manage to get a cheap kimsufi server with a 2TB disk for additional remote site backup. I will also run a few things on there since it has a i3-2130 + 8GB of ram.

All invalid prefixes should now be dropped. I am doing some additional tests to make sure it is configured correctly.
Wiki.js
Wiki of choice right now is Wiki.js. Just deployed it natively without docker on my trusty Ubuntu 20.04, with Postgres and Caddy web server. Going to mark this project as complete in Kanboard.
Just setup kanboard
To keep track of all of my ideas and projects I want to do. Sometimes my ideas run wild and can’t keep track all of it on a simple Google note.
Recursive DNS
So, you need both authoritative and recursive DNS for your infrastructure. For this particular occasion, I will be using Pi-Hole. I’ve considered using PowerDNS as well for my recursive DNS but the ad-blocking for pi-hole is nice for when I tunnel IP’s around without the ads 😉 Again, fairly simple […]
Dedicated Server
My dedicated server was provisioned with a hypervisor at my request. So, the first thing I setup after I got my dedicated server (dedi, from here on out) was to setup networking on it and run a quick pfSense firewall, then install FRR module and start a BGP peering session […]
