Selber musste ich über 40 werden um zu lernen, dass eine Steckdose eine Prüfung erfahren muss und in dieser auch durchfallen kann. Alles andere als alltäglich, und das obwohl ich sogar in der Licht– und damit…

  • Software Defined Networks

    For the most of my career I spent time configuring TCP stacks, IP ACLs, firewall rules and layer2 links. I worked with devices of multiple vendors, pulled together hubs, switches, routers and packet filters, used hardware and software tools to find why an application won’t connect to a remore peer. For the most time. Still,…
