How to set up WireGuard VPN server on Ubuntu 20.04 [5] Traditionally, VPN implementation has existed in two forms. In-kernel VPN implementation such as IPsec performs heavy-duty per-packet crypto processing in the kernel in a "bump-in- the-stack" fashion (i.e., between IP stack and the network drivers). This gives speed as there is no context switch between kernel and userspace during packet processing. But it comes with high management complexity in separate userspace control plane (e.g., IKE). An alternative form of VPN implementation is userspace TUN/TAP-based solutions such as OpenVPN, Tinc, n2n, where crypto processing is performed by a userspace VPN daemon. Naturally, these TUN/TAP-based VPN solutions have poor performance compared to IPsec mainly because network packets traverse the kernel and userspace boundary multiple times, resulting in frequent context switches and packet copies. Despite their performance disadvantage, userspace VPN solutions enjoy more popularty than the in-kernel counterpart due to their ease of use and configuration. How to create a lifecycle policy for an S3 Bucket on AWS [6] We can use the Lifecycle Policy to manage the objects in S3 Bucket so that they are stored cost-effectively throughout. An S3 Lifecycle Policy is a set of rules used to define actions that Amazon S3 applies to objects in the bucket. How to change the hostname on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS [7] In a Local Area Network (LAN) environment, computer systems need to communicate with each other based on their IP addresses. To learn and remember these IP addresses and sharing them when needed is a tricky business. In order to avoid such trouble, users tend to rename their system?s hostname for their own ease. The simpler hostnames will allow all computer users to coordinate easily without an exchange of large IP addresses. This whole scenario is quite related to the URLs and DNS server address, where the user is totally unaware of long addresses and simply use the URLs in their search engine. In this tutorial, I will show you two methods to change the hostname of an Ubuntu 20.04 system via the command line terminal and GUI. Users can opt either way to update the names and share them once they have finalized them. How To Delete Outdated Vagrant Boxes In Linux - OSTechNix [8] You might have downloaded several versions of Vagrant boxes and some of them might be pretty outdated! If they are no longer required, you can safely delete outdated Vagrant boxes in Linux as described in this brief guide. Check for outdated Vagrant boxes I have been using Vagrant for the past few months for testing purposes. Since Vagrant version 1.5, boxes support versioning. The Box Versioning allows the developers who make boxes to push updates or fixes and the users to easily update the underlying box. LHB Digest #21.02: Uptime Monitoring, Terminal Shortcuts, Linux Commands Tips and More[9] How To Install Java on Linux Mint 20 - idroot [10] In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Java on Linux Mint 20. For those of you who didn?t know, Java is a very popular language when it comes to programming. It is a common language for android development and other enterprise solutions. It was first released by Sun Microsystems in 1995. Many programs and scripts require Java to run it, but usually, Java is not installed by default on a VPS or Dedicated Server. building a simple KVM switch for 30€ | die-welt.net[11] Prompted by tweets from Lesley and Dave, I thought about KVM switches again and came up with a rather cheap solution to my individual situation (YMMY, as usual). As I've written last year, my desk has one monitor, keyboard and mouse and two computers. Since writing that post I got a new (bigger) monitor, but also an USB switch again (a DIGITUS USB 3.0 Sharing Switch) - this time one that doesn't freak out my dock \o/ However, having to switch the used computer in two places (USB and monitor) is rather inconvenient, but also getting an KVM switch that can do 4K@60Hz was out of question. Luckily, hackers gonna hack, everything, and not only receipt printers. There is a tool called ddcutil that can talk to your monitor and change various settings. And udev can execute commands when (USB) devices connect? You see where this is going? An introduction to hashing and checksums in Linux | Enable Sysadmin[12] Always wondered how to make use of a checksum? This introduction shows you what they mean, and how to use the proper tools to verify the integrity of a file. How to remove background microphone noise in Windows, Mac, Linux[13] Noisetorch is an open-source Linux application that allows you to create a virtual microphone that suppresses background noise. To filter out background noise in an application, simply select the virtual microphone instead of your regular microphone, and the application will filter out background noise. Craig Small: Percent CPU for processes [14] The ps program gives a snapshot of the processes running on your Unix-like system. On most Linux installations, this will be the ps program from the procps project. While you can get a lot of information from the tool, a lot of the fields need further explanation or can give ?wrong? or confusing information; or putting it another way, they provide the right information that looks wrong. One of these confusing fields is the %CPU or pcpu field. You can see this as the third field with the ps aux command. You only really need the u option to see it, but ps aux is a pretty common invokation.

  • N2N: a Layer Two Peer-To-Peer VPN
    N2N: A Layer Two Peer-to-Peer VPN Luca Deri1, Richard Andrews2 ntop.org, Pisa, Italy1 Symstream Technologies, Melbourne, Australia2 {deri, andrews}@ntop.org Abstract. The Internet was originally designed as a flat data network delivering a multitude of protocols and services between equal peers. Currently, after an explosive growth fostered by enormous and heterogeneous economic interests, it has become a constrained network severely enforcing client-server communication where addressing plans, packet routing, security policies and users’ reachability are almost entirely managed and limited by access providers. From the user’s perspective, the Internet is not an open transport system, but rather a telephony-like communication medium for content consumption. This paper describes the design and implementation of a new type of peer-to- peer virtual private network that can allow users to overcome some of these limitations. N2N users can create and manage their own secure and geographically distributed overlay network without the need for central administration, typical of most virtual private network systems. Keywords: Virtual private network, peer-to-peer, network overlay. 1. Motivation and Scope of Work Irony pervades many pages of history, and computing history is no exception. Once personal computing had won the market battle against mainframe-based computing, the commercial evolution of the Internet in the nineties stepped the computing world back to a substantially rigid client-server scheme. While it is true that the today’s Internet serves as a good transport system for supplying a plethora of data interchange services, virtually all of them are delivered by a client-server model, whether they are centralised or distributed, pay-per-use or virtually free [1].

  • Comparison of Virtual Networks Solutions for Community Clouds
    KTH Royal Institute of Technology Bachelor Thesis Comparison of Virtual Networks Solutions for Community Clouds Examiner: Vladimir Vlassov Author: Albert Avellana Supervisors: Paris Carbone, Hooman Peiro Information and Communication Technology School February 2014 KTH Royal Institute of Technology Abstract Information and Communication Technology School Bachelor Thesis Comparison of Virtual Networks Solutions for Community Clouds by Albert Avellana Cloud computing has a huge importance and big impact nowadays on the IT world. The idea of community clouds has emerged recently in order to satisfy several user expectations. Clommunity is a European project that aims to provide a design and implementation of a self-configured, fully distributed, decentralized, scalable and robust cloud for a community of users across a commmunity network. One of the aspects to analyze in this design is which kind of Virtual Private Network (VPN) is going to be used to interconnect the nodes of the community members interested in access cloud services. In this thesis we will study, compare and analyze the possibility of using Tinc, IPOP or SDN-based solutions such as OpenFlow to establish such a VPN. Acknowledgements I would like to express my gratitude to all those who gave me the possibility to do this thesis in KTH. Firstly, I would like to thank Vlad for the opportunity he gave me to do this thesis and for his support. Secondly, thanks to my thesis supervisors: Paris Carbone and Hooman Peiro, who guided me through the research, helped me and gave me recommendations during this period. Also, I would like to thank F´elixFreitag and Leandro Navarro from Universitat Polit`ecnica de Catalunya for supporting me from Barcelona and make this stay in Stockholm possi- ble.
