DHCP / DNS Setup

Outdated

I have moved my DNS and DHCP servers to Docker, Docker-DNS Server.  I am still using ISC_Bind9, but am now using ISC_Kea for DHCP as ISC_Bind is no longer supported as of 2022.

Monitoring

There are a number of linux monitoring packages available. See these links for more examples see, 13 Linux Performance Monitoring Tools – Part 2, and 30 Linux System Monitoring Tools Every SysAdmin Should Know. Below are a few that I have tried and use.

ISP PPPoE Network Setup

A reasonably comprehensive discussion on Ubuntu forums Setup Ubuntu Server as a router using a PPPoE connection, MTU and TCP MSS when using PPPoE. Also from Ubuntu forums How to Optimize your Internet Connection using MTU and RWIN. Ubuntu documentation ADSLPPPoE. PPPD manual page.

Another reference is Confirm Blog Using PPPoE on Linux.

Debian Network - Server Interface Setup

As of Debian 10 (Buster) Debian still by default uses this interface Setup.  It can be setup to use netplan inface.


Ubuntu (as of version 14.04) defaults to Predictable Network Interface Names, also see Systemd Docs. I have no problem with this. In any case, you should always check dev names and not assume names, such as</description>

IPTables Configuration

Having delved into IPtables and NFtables about the same time, my feelings are that NFTables is generally superior in just about every way,  I can not be bothered explaining this, this is just my experience and feeling.  I would preferentially use NFTables over IPtables where I have a choice.  Unfortunately some software still uses IPtables, e.g. Docker.  So it is good to be able to be sufficiently fluent and be able to work in both at this …</description>
