This is wrong, I use IPTables but the device is absolutely not dedicated lol.
The iptables one has me triggered.
I've actually had an excavator take out my network. I've also had networks taken out by forklift, train, and a semi-truck towing three other semi-trucks.
How about a bus? The fiber to a datacenter i used to work at kept going out at almost consistent intervals during almost normal business hours. Turns out the conduit wasn't deep enough and the city built a bus stop on top of it and it would sag just enough to go out but only when a bus was at the stop.
That's pretty similar with what happened with me and the train. Kept getting random drops from a plant. I went out to investigate and everything tested perfect and the network was staying up. That was until a freight train rolled by. Turns out AT&T had run the line by shoving a piece of PVC through the gravel between two cross-ties, then running the cable through it.
That punchline hit like a tree falling onto a network cable.
Spanning tree is a firewall
Okay, that's just cursed.
Excavator in rack-mount enclosure would be awesome
Ah yes, that time a Georgian granny became the Great Firewall of Armenia.
i wonder what is the favorite firewall of people here?
I'm at the top right myself. ๐
Not as fast as ASIC firewalls, but way more flexible and fast enough for home routing.
