Related to mass federal firings today: If anyone out there in private sector has a need for a highly-qualified PhD-level wildfire risk modeler (or MS/PHD-level meteorologist), available immediately, please do reach out via email or DM! (Not for me, but trying to help others out.)

radvd is done, or at least configured & not tested.

Other items on the gateway list:

* firewall (pf on #FreeBSD, bring over rules, NAT, aliases, forwarding, etc)
* dynamic dns (DynDNS, @henet, DNS-O-Matic)
* static route (for portal tunnel)

Guessing pf will be the most work.

I see an IPv6 /56 on this router at a friend's place. I wonder if that's a static assignment.

It gives me hope for the new #FreeBSD gateway in that I may get native IPv6 at home.

At present, I'm using a /48 from @henet routed over a tunnel. Works fine, but just not the same.

Honestly you all are simply *LUCKY* that the internet works at all. If/when it works, it is because people who care are working, mostly un-noticed, in the background. I am not talking only of my own colleagues.....

Boost this toot if you're planning on sticking around Mastodon & the Fediverse whether or not it's more popular than Bluesky.

This is my main PostgreSQL server (pg03). You can see the hourly spikes as specific jobs on four FreshPorts nodes (here in the basement) launch their hourly jobs.

Also shown are the same types of graphs for my MySQL server (mysql01).

Neither of these are very interesting.

What is interesting is these are both jails on the same host. This is per-jail metrics provided by https://www.freshports.org/net-mgmt/p5-OSLV-Monitor/ via snmpd and displayed by LibreNMS.

I have these graphs for each of my jails on every #FreeBSD host.

I'm seeing an IPv6 routing issue within Azure.

I don't have the level of support where I can open a ticket to report this.
