I recently encountered a scenario where I would like to deploy an Ubuntu VM unattended, with the least amount of user interaction possible.

During our migration process from an F5 Big-IP to NSX ALB, we ran into a particularly stubborn issue with NTLM traffic.

It’s been a while! As promised, I’ll be taking a look at the various modules that we built in Terraform.

ALB has a great UI, but it also comes with a complete (if convoluted) API and Terraform provider. I’m a big fan of using Infrastructure-as-Code principles, and that’s exactly what I’ll dive into in this series.

You still really like redundancy, we all do. And you must like (or need) loadbalancing, since you’re still here! In Part 2, I’ll dive into virtual service config!

You really like redundancy, we all do. You really like loadbalancing, some of us do. Therefore, you might want to loadbalance your Cisco ISE PSNs. This presents a bit of a problem on any loadbalancer, but it’s every so slightly more complicated when you’re using ALB.
In Part 1, I’ll take a look at the problem statement, the topology and the “supporting” configuration.
