Forum Lobby / Re: Perpetual Weekend Thread

Note to self; If you forget your password and try to brute force back into it send dean a note so he doesn't think you are a hacker.

Good tip. This also reminded me to make sure I updated my email address here. I heard the other week that my old email provider is gone so even if I can remember my password for my old email account it no longer exists. Last year I had to get back into it to do a password reset on something.

Not the weekend, but I got my new Lego set delivered yesterday so time to put that together. It will take a few days, and then I need to figure out where I will display it. Has to stand up, and is 24" tall so it won't fit with the rest of em.

Start with RIP, it is easiest.

Then go to OSPF and see why it is used instead of RIP in organizations with any level of sophistication.

End with BGP, the big Internet protocol, also used inside of multinational organizations with extensive routing requirements between branches.

Just search your favorite search engine for the topics mentioned

like this. I searched ospf dr and bdr elections

Understand Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) - Design Guide
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/open-shortest-path-first-ospf/7039-1.html

Security / Fortigate API

Last post by deanwebb - April 26, 2024, 08:26:03 AM

Question that I'm stumped on - we're trying to add a Fortigate controller for Fortiswitch into Forescout.

We got to the part where we add a Rest API account in Fortigate, but the option is not there in the drop-down menu.

Is getting the API user something that has to be turned on in the CLI or is that a licensing option, sold separately?
