What this blog is for
What gets written up here, and how addresses, keys and names are kept out of it.
This blog is where I write my network down: how it is built, why it is built that way, and what went wrong on the way.
What to expect
Each post is about something that is running right now, with the topology diagrams, routing design, RouterOS configuration and measurements behind each decision.
How sensitive details are handled
Real addresses, keys, ports, usernames, router hostnames and provider names never appear here. Public addresses are swapped for the documentation ranges from RFC 5737, and anything secret is blacked out. The configuration snippets keep the shape of the real thing, so they are useful to read and adapt without being a copy of what runs on my routers.
