Another PA-820 Install

From a technical standpoint, Palo Alto is the best firewall on the market. 

Michigan

Michigan is a beautiful state. I never knew that. The Upper Peninsula in particular has turned out to be one of my favorite places in the US. 

Solar Panel Project

 I added a second solar panel to the RV. This should help charge the house batteries faster,  when traveling down the road. 

Palo Alto 3220s

 New hardware and a great product.  

Pic Of The Week: Pennsylvania Dutch Farm

This would not mean much to you guys,  but I met some really nice people while on a customer visit.  A guy named Lamar who is a farmer in Pennsylvania and a guy named Mike, a veteran from New York state. We all shared a similar view from Lamar's property. 

A Hectic Weekend

 Sometimes in IT, things can get hectic.  I have a costumer whose log files filled up the hard drives on two of their firewalls.  One in Alabama and one in Tuscaloosa.  This happened on a Friday night. 

So my customer had to be back up on Monday at open of business day. So off I went.  First to the Alabama site on Saturday,  then drove to the Pennsylvania site on Sunday.  I was able to reinstall the firewalls from scratch and do a restore of the configurations and have everything back up and going without issue by Sunday evening.  

I have said recently that interstates are for getting somewhere,  and the back roads are for seeing the country.  I always emit the back roads better.

PBR: Policy Based Routing On Aruba 3810

 Quick example that I did on an Aruba 3810 to force traffic out to another firewall.

============== Begin =====================

class ipv4 "Camera"

     10 ignore ip 192.168.1.45 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

     20 match ip 192.168.1.45 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255

   exit

policy pbr "Camera"

     10 class ipv4 "Camera"

      action ip next-hop 10.102.12.2

      exit

   exit

vlan 10

   name "Camaras"

   untagged 1/10,2/10

   ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.252.0

   service-policy "Camera" in

   exit

============ End ===================

 Merry Christmas everyone.
