Day 106 of 100daysofhomelab

Day 106 of #100daysofhomelab and I am still trying to get my VMHaus Box running Bird 2.0. Its running, just not configured right. And some news updates too.

• managed to get Bird 2.0 and Mikrotik talking to each other, but the Mikrotik is announcing only V4 routes to Bird. No V6. And Bird is not announcing ANYTHING to mikrotik…
• upgraded all my Ubuntu and Debian boxes. Need to automate that with Ansible at some stage…
• Video series from Mikrotik about running Docker instances on Router OS.
  • First video shows how to setup containers on your routerboard.
  • Video 2 shows you how to get PiHole working on a routerboard.
• As part of Cloudflare’s Birthday week, they announced a few things of interest for me today. I have signed up for early access to both. We see what the story is
  • Introducing Cloudflare’s free Botnet Threat Feed for service providers
  • Monitor your own network with free network flow analytics from Cloudflare
