Monday mornings, the natural enemy of network engineers everywhere. Thankfully, coffee's here to smooth out the rough edges. Can't help but wonder, could we run the internet on caffeine? ☕️🌐 #NetworkEngineering #CoffeeLovers #MondayMotivation

Is it possible to apply #Quantum Key Distribution (#QKD) in the #GÉANTnetwork?

Our Karel van Klink presents the results of a study he conducted on the technical applicability and potential of QKD, including a technical feasibility analysis on the western ring and an analysis of existing standardisation efforts 👉 https://connect.geant.org/2023/03/15/quantum-key-distribution-in-the-geant-network-is-it-possible

So how to approach learning about this? I needed to understand
- what was wrong
- how to fix it
- how to defend against it

4 things informed my approach.

1. first principles thinking from #physics

2. Stochastic systems comprehension from #NetworkEngineering

3. Systems design thinking from #consulting

4. #infosec risk management from being #BlueTeam for over 30 years

Risk management was clearly the path for me to understand what had happened & could happen again.

OSPF is always a particularly fun one to study #networkengineering #neteng

PART 2: #neteng #networkengineering #networkengineer #womenintech #ieee #ietf

6 weeks ago, i didn’t know jack shit about why we have tech defined in both RFCs & 802.X standards, so that’s the rabbit hole i have chosen to dig into this week. PART 1: #neteng #networkengineering #networkengineer #womenintech #ieee #ietf

New social who dis, so I may as well type up an #introduction. I’m an #IT #manager who cut his teeth doing #networkEngineering, #infrastructureEngineering, #SRE, and #infosec . I love #cars, #autocross, #bikes, #design, #baseball - #mariners and #orioles, #fitness, #travel, and #parenting.

I don’t love that we’re expected to advertise our politics, but I’m pretty left. Be decent to each other.

Here to talk with interesting folks, make some dumb jokes, and learn.

to celebrate my being on an instance that allows decent video uploads, here’s a rant i made about annoying sexist tiktok comments #networkengineering #womenintech

Hello, world. Migrating my one-day-old account from a larger instance. Here's my #introduction.

I've been in the #IT and #NetworkEngineering industry for 15 years. By day I manage network engineering teams for a large #cloud provider located in #Seattle. My fiancé and I recently became parents to a hilarious little boy, and we have an amazing black lab.

I love learning new things. I have a #HomeLab which I use to experiment with #technology that I don't typically touch at work. I am constantly interested with #data, #metrics, #networking, #python, and tech writing.

Outside of work I love #pickleball, #gaming, #travel, #photography, and walks with the fam.

If you're in #NetworkEngineering and write #python code, then #netaddr is your friend.

I just realized that I've been typing "pign" for about 25 years now. Longest on-going typo ever. #NetworkEngineering

If they're all core switches, then you have no core switches. #NetworkEngineering

Sigh. There are between 1024 and 4096 VLAN ids. At a site with 100 VLANs why the heck do people insist on reusing an id and only blocking it on one side of a trunk between 2 switches where the id is used in 2 different subnets?! 🤦‍♂️​

#introduction

I left a long career and the #CISO role at a large university to lead #InfoSec and #NetworkEngineering at a small threat intelligence firm. Excitement, adventure, and really wild things have ensued.

To relax from all that, I enjoy #brewing & judging #beer, #bicycling, and #music, especially #ProgressiveRock. I'll likely be posting a lot on all these topics (unless Metatext implements unified timelines for multiple accounts 🤞). I'll try to remember to tag appropriately!
