What is Proxmox?? 🤔

Proxmox VE is an open-source server management platform for your enterprise virtualization. It tightly integrates KVM hypervisor and LXC, software-defined storage, and networking functionality on a single platform. With the integrated web-based user interface you can easily manage VMs and containers, highly available clusters, or the integrated disaster recovery tools with ease. Proxmox VE is under the GNU Affero General Public License (V3), there is simple subscription structure for those who are interested in more than community support. Simplicity is great advantage of PVE over other virtualization solutions. even a novice user can setup and install it within minutes. And most importantly because it is running on Debian, all Linux experience apply…

This is just a draft for my own further reading and to have something to play with when the time comes found this interesting therefore I put it in there.

Want to learn some network stuff, here are some hints, this is just a draft. I'll hopefully expand this or create an entire new article in depth, when I've the time.

Packet Tracer vs GNS3 vs VIRL vs Physical Equipment (Part 1). Which is best?

XCP-NG / Xen Orchestra VS Vmware and Why We Choose It For Our Clients

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrLue-ENMJc

There is also EVE-NG. IMHO, Cisco itself has its issues, and personally I'm not a fan of it. Maybe it was in the past the hottest sh*t but currently due to the popularity of Linux there is a whole plethora of alternatives.

IMUNES

Integrated Multiprotocol Network Emulator/Simulator

We developed a realistic network topology emulation / simulation framework based on the FreeBSD and Linux operating system kernel partitioned into multiple lightweight virtual nodes, which can be interconnected via kernel-level links to form arbitrarily complex network topologies.

CORE, CORE: Common Open Research Emulator

The Common Open Research Emulator (CORE) is a tool for emulating networks on one or more machines. You can connect these emulated networks to live networks. CORE consists of a GUI for drawing topologies of lightweight virtual machines, and Python modules for scripting network emulation.

ns-3

What is ns-3?

ns-3 is a discrete-event network simulator, targeted primarily for research and educational use. ns-3 is free software, licensed under the GNU GPLv2 license, and is publicly available for research, development, and use.

The goal of the ns-3 project is to develop a preferred, open simulation environment for networking research: it should be aligned with the simulation needs of modern networking research and should encourage community contribution, peer review, and validation of the software…

If you have to own a proprietary, human right neglecting hardware software combo known as the iOS and iPhone

To pair your device and to get stuff working between apple and Linux, you need some additional tools.

Quote:“A cross-platform FOSS library written in C to communicate with iOS devices natively…”

https://libimobiledevice.org/

$ sudo apt-get install usbmuxd libimobiledevice6 libimobiledevice-utils

ideviceinfo

Now it will require you to enter your pin to pair it. If you encounter any problem, you can try this

sudo usbmuxd -f -d
idevicepair pair

It might again ask for the pin. If all fails, probably you have to compile those tools.

Here you can find their source:

As prerequisites, you should have installed Spotify and all its dependencies.

You might also need curl

sudo apt install -y curl

Disclaimer I'm no fan of Spotify and services like this but if you have trouble to install this application

https://github.com/khanhas/spicetify-cli

Maybe this will help you

you can install brew like described in this article

https://www.how2shout.com/linux/how-to-install-brew-ubuntu-20-04-lts-linux/

just copy and paste the command's step by step mark the text then ctrl+c i.e. copy and ctr+shift +v to in your terminal i.e. paste.

First disable the analytics of brew, yes brew has analytics

brew analytics off

Windows is a Trojan in an OS cloak, just use it for educational purposes or for experiments, don't use it as an OS at all! And Linux is much superior as a Server. IMHO also as an OS for your Desktop/Laptop.

https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/

Yes, you can even use Android in a VM :)

Via osboxes or linuxmimages or via this tool

There are more tools, but don't bother with them…

Keep in mind apple is not a fan of this

Looking Glass

Looking Glass is an open source application that allows the use of a KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) configured for VGA PCI Pass-through without an attached physical monitor, keyboard or mouse. This is the final step required to move away from dual booting with other operating systems for legacy programs that require high performance graphics…
