  • A lot of negativity around Ubiquity in here, which is surprising to me, honestly. I had their USG for years and loved it, recently swapped it out for the Dream Machine and love it. Really don't understand the complaints about linking it to the cloud. I just didn't bother, everything works fine. Additionally, I managed to get a Debian container running on it and installed ntopng, it's been awesome for getting realtime visibility into my network traffic.

    E. I should add I have 6 of their switches and 3 access points, one of which is at least 7 years old and still receiving updates.

  • We were very *very *close to replacing our ~700 office Cisco SD-Wan environment with VeloCloud, which is owned by VMware. The Broadcom merger put the brakes on the project completely, they missed out on a few million dollars on that effort alone. The Velo guys were totally in the dark on what was coming down the pipe for them, Broadcom forced them to change hardware vendors on day one, for example.

  • Full tunnel would not mitigate this attack because smaller routes are preferred over larger ones. So, sure, 0.0.0.0/0 is routed over the tunnel, but a route for 8.8.8.8/32 pointing to somewhere layer2 adjacent, pushed via DHCP option 121, would supercede that due to being more specific.

  • You aren't wrong, per se, I think you just don't fully grasp the attack vector. This is related to DHCP option 121, which allows routes to be fed to the client when issuing the ip address required for VPN connectivity. Using this option, they can send you a preferred default route as part of the DHCP response that causes the client to route traffic out of the tunnel without them knowing.

    E. It would likely only be select traffic routing out of the tunnel. I could, for example, send you routes so that all traffic destined for Chase Bank ip addresses comes back to me instead of traversing the tunnel. Much harder to detect.

  • I am excited to see how the Hexbear folks spin this as positive for their movement. Oh shucks, I'll take a shot myself!

    "They don't mean gay people! They mean the terrible LGBTQ movement co-opted by the evil imperialist west to repress true freedoms for all peoples!!"

    How'd I do? 😁

  • Engineering is engineering. You design it, you build it, you test it. Engineering. We shouldn't gatekeep words.

    With that said, I recognize that certain engineering disciplines have overlap with public safety, and should come with some qualifications to back it up.
