Collecting Ubiquiti UniFi LOGs in Elasticsearch and Visualizing Them in Grafana

And we continue with more strange things… today the first one of collecting Logs to the Ubiquiti Unifi environment, of our APs, Switches… for the second time we parse., we treat the Logs with Logstash and for dessert we store it in Elasticsearch, and the icing on the cake will be visualizing it with Grafana. All this to control in real time what happens in our communications infrastructure, who is trying to access the Wisfis…

Monitoring thanks to snmpwalk

Continuing with documents on Nagios or Centreon, Let's go with a post that may be in common use, above all, when we need to monitor something by SNMP and the Internet gurus have not developed a script that we need. We will see then, how to query over SNMP what a device might 'spit out'’ Thanks to SNMPWALK and then we will monitor it! And at the end of the document we'll look at how to monitor the traffic of any network device that has SNMP enabled as well!

Migrating VMware VI3 Virtual Network Environment to VMware vSphere with Distributed Switches

Well, once we have our entire virtual environment already migrated to the new version of VMWare vSphere 4.0, all servers running under VMware ESX 4.0 and our VMware vCenter Server as well, We will be able to enjoy its advantages, One of them is the new switch environment, called Distributed Switches or vNetwork Distributed Switches. With this we will achieve comfort when managing network environments, Much simpler, Change the way switches are configured, No more configuring a switch or virtual network for each host, otherwise, is a global environment, everything is done at the vCenter Server level and will apply to all of our hosts.

Basic configuration on a fiber switch (Zoning)

This document shows how to perform a very basic configuration on a fiber switch, based on how to configure zoning and access permissions between HBAs (Host Bus Adapter) of servers and HBAs in a storage array. This example is based on a configuration executed for a VMware ESX environment, we will have four servers with two HBAs each against a booth that also has two cards. All this will be joined by two switches, each HBA from each server to a switch (logically).
