• VyOS From Scratch – Edition 1 (set up your own router)

  Might be worth adding a paragraph about what VyOS is, maybe not for the target audience but certainly for HN. https://vyos.io/ The VyOS website says: > Democratizing how we access networks through a universal Router and Open source software. > Our vision at VyOS is to dramatically change how we access networks so that we can all build the solutions we always dreamed of, without restrictions, limitations, or... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• VyOS is the next-generation network operating system

  VyOS is the next-generation network operating system that’s revolutionizing the way businesses manage their networks. With its powerful tools and intuitive interface, VyOS makes it easy to manage and configure even the most complex networks. Plus, with its open-source architecture, you have access to a community of developers and users who are constantly improving and expanding the capabilities of the system. Source: about 1 year ago

• Advice for a high school networking lab

  VyOS https://vyos.io/ is my go-to for open source CLI focused router platform. Configuration syntax is similar to that of Juniper. I believe as an educational institution you would qualify for free LTS images from them. They’re super friendly to reach out to, and seems like they’re still actively developing some really cool features. They do support WiFi interfaces, among many others. Pretty decent online docs too!

• linux network project ideas

  There's VyOS if that's what you're looking for? If you want to do everything from scratch, just use Debian/Ubuntu and configure all the components individually. Source: about 1 year ago

• VPN Site to SIte (Fortigate or Asus)

  If you absolutely have to do your homelab experiments in production, at least do it properly. Get some decent hardware (I just got a pair of these, they are fun: https://www.pcengines.ch/apu2.htm) and install something like https://vyos.io/ or opnsense or ipfire or something. Then you might actually learn something, plus in my experience these much more stable than cheapass consumer crap. Source: over 1 year ago

• Brute-forcing a macOS user’s real name from a browser using mDNS

• Mac shipments grow 10%, as all major PC brands see downturns

  Remove 11 and install Windows 10 ITSC IOT edition until the equivalent for 11 drops. Make Windows shut up for good with Tinywall (https://tinywall.pados.hu/) and whitelist applications as needed. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Comodo firewall and Windows Internet not working: Can't re/un-install

  Microsoft Defender is far better as an antivirus, and there are much better 3rd-party firewall options, even though Windows Firewall works just fine. TinyWall is a very low resource whitelist-only front end for Windows Firewall; Portmaster is a comprehensive network firewall. Source: about 1 year ago

• Anyone tried doing default outbound deny on firewall?

  TinyWall is a whitelist only front-end for the Windows firewall. Source: about 1 year ago
