So, just a light post, I upgraded my Pi4 last night and found the Linux firmware breaks a 32bit install.
I’ve been meaning to change to 64bit for months, but as it’s my DMZ box for torrents, radicale, etc, then it’s just finding the right time to convert an adhoc setup into my ansible scripts.
Luckily I had a SD backup from September to get it running again
So, what have you broken over the holidays?
I attempted to move my whole 192.168.x network without vlan to a new 10.x network with vlans. I am still tracking down services and devices where I hardcoded in the old 192.168. ip adresses.
Is there a technical advantage to using a 192 network vs a 10 network like you described? I would’ve thought they’re just addresses, still IPv4 as well.
I tend to use hostnames where possible. Maybe that’s not viable for your situation?
No. But segregation into vlans has advantages. As this comes with new adresses anyway, might as well tidy up the adress space entirely.
In the end 10.20.20.10 feels much neater than 192.168.174.10.
But yes, you are right, technically the 192.168.xx.yy adress space works the same and has plenty of space for home use.
Going back a little bit, you mentioned advantages to “segregating into vlans”?
Would you like to elaborate on some of those advantages?
Ah okay, so it’s kinda just for aesthetic reasons mostly? I’ll take that explanation home any day 😄
Exactly. You could say it was unnecessary, but I think we have crossed that line a long time ago.
😁 “Maaaybe”
That’s a big endeavour! I did it about two months ago, but slowly and progressively. Still found hard-coded addresses a month later though.
Nice way to find (& document?) The system though
