Today we'll talk about static routing and look at three topics: what static routing is, how it's configured, and what its alternative is. You see the network topology, which includes a computer with an IP address of 192.168.1.10, connected via a switch to a gateway, or router. For this connection, the router port f0/0 with the IP address 192.168.1.1 is used. The second port of this router […]

As a rule, this means using the Raspbian operating system native to the Raspberry. Being an adherent of RPM-based systems, I could not pass by this little miracle and not try my beloved CentOS on it. The article provides instructions for making a 5GHz/AC Wi-Fi router […]

It so happened that for a long time I worked only with my team, where we had long agreed on the rules of formatting, commenting, indentations, etc. Got used to it [...]

A large number of marketers use flashy—or vulgar—messaging tactics. Doesn't work for everyone.

In previous posts we talked about simple video surveillance systems in business, but now we will talk about projects in which the number of cameras is in the thousands. Often the difference between the most expensive video surveillance systems and the solutions that small and medium-sized businesses can already use is scale and budget. If there are no restrictions on the cost of the project, you can directly [...]
The FESCo (Fedora Engineering Steering Committee), responsible for the technical part of the development of the Fedora distribution, approved the cessation of the formation of the main repositories for the i686 architecture.
