Passed JNCDA

06/06/2020 by Andrew Roderos Leave a Comment

Yesterday, I passed the JNCDA certification exam. I know I mentioned in my JNCIA-Junos article that it might have been my last Juniper certification, but things changed since then. Exam Details The JNCDA exam that I took has an exam code of JN0-1101. It is one of the Associate-level Juniper certifications. While it is reasonable to compare this to the retired Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) certification, I believe the CCDA was a step above JNCDA. Here are some …

Upgrade NUC10i7FNH to ESXi 7

04/26/2020 by Andrew Roderos 2 Comments

Note: If you're going to run EVE-NG on this host, then do not upgrade to ESXi 7.0 Looks like EVE-NG is not compatible with ESXi 7.0. Need to downgrade to ESXi 6.7U3.— Andrew Roderos (@andrewroderos) May 4, 2020 Earlier this year, I wrote an article about my new ESXi host, the Intel NUC 10 - Frost Canyon. The article covered how to install VMware ESXi 6.7 on the NUC. Since VMware released the new ESXi version, I decided to upgrade my Frost Canyon NUC to ESXi 7.0. This guide describes how …

Blocking ads network-wide with Pi-hole

03/29/2020 by Andrew Roderos 2 Comments

I think it's safe to say that the majority of people hate ads. However, it is a necessary evil since we all love free stuff. Whether that's YouTube content, email service, etc., we want it for free. Some people install ad blocker add-ons on their browsers, and they work great. Some tech-savvy folks go even further by blocking ads network-wide. Today's article is how to block ads network-wide. Why block ads? I love ads! Said no one, ever. People have different opinions about …

VMware ESXi Home Lab – Intel NUC 10 (Frost Canyon)

01/19/2020 by Andrew Roderos 16 Comments

If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, then you know that I recently installed VMware ESXi on Intel NUC 10 (Frost Canyon). It will join the existing hosts in my VMware ESXi home lab that I assembled in 2012 and 2016. While these hosts are old, they're still useful for what they currently do. Eventually, I'm going to repurpose the ESXi 2012 build and will talk about it in a future article. The ESXi 2016 build will continue to host my current virtual servers and future …

Deploying TACACS+ on a Docker container

11/21/2019 by Andrew Roderos Leave a Comment

TACACS+ Docker container

Back in 2011, I wrote how to configure tac_plus (TACACS+ daemon) on an Ubuntu server. Then two years ago, I wrote an article about adding two-factor authentication (2FA) to TACACS+. Today, I'm going to talk about deploying TACACS+ on a Docker container. While I've written migrating FreeRADIUS with 2FA to a Docker container article in the past, I'd still consider myself a newbie. I don't deal with Docker daily to be well-versed. Related: VMware ESXi Home Lab – Intel NUC …
