This is the blog of Ronald Bartels that wanders on and off the subject of problem management (that is how it started). Mostly now the topics are about IoT and SD-WAN.

FW1 – 4 Port Intel® J1900
The Vault is a small form factor PC built for use as a firewall /
router. The FW1 is based on a 4 network port design that leverages a
low power (10Watts at idle CPU, 15Watts under moderate load), but
versatile Intel Celeron J1900 CPU. The Vault uses standard Intel
components (including Intel network ports) which results in
compatibility with a variety of operating systems, including a number of
open source firewall projects. The Vault is fanless so it has no
moving parts, which results in an incredibly durable platform that can
be used in less than ideal environments. Its all aluminum enclosure (no
plastic here) is a giant heat sink, keeping the CPU cool. The
enclosure also comes with pre-drilled holes for an available wireless
kit (available here). The FW1 can accommodate up to 8GB of DDR3L RAM and any available size mSATA storage drive. For more information on tested OS compatibility with the Vault, please see this link.
Firewalls are becoming increasingly important in today’s world. Hackers and automated scripts are constantly trying to invade your system and use it for Bitcoin mining, botnets or other things. To prevent these attacks, you can use a firewall on your system. IPTables is the strongest firewall in Linux because it can filter packets in the kernel before they reach the application. Using IPTables is not very easy for Linux beginners. We have created easywall - the simple IPTables web interface . The focus of the software is on easy installation and use.

When building a DDoS mitigation service it’s incredibly tempting to think that the solution is scrubbing centers or scrubbing servers. I, too, thought that was a good idea in the beginning, but experience has shown that there are serious pitfalls to this approach.
