Thoughts on networking, automation, and IT
Automating **bgp** peer provisioning in an ISP network is less about “pushing config” and more about building a reliable pipeline: a clean source of truth, deterministic data transformation, strong validation (policy and

Read More →BGP automation at ISP scale is less about “generating configs” and more about building a safe, repeatable pipeline: authoritative source-of-truth, validation gates, idempotent config rendering, controlled rollout, and po
Read More →Automating BGP in a datacenter is less about pushing config faster and more about making intent explicit, repeatable, and verifiable. The combination of **netbox** (as the source of truth) and Ansible (as the execution e
Read More →BGP route flaps at the boundary between Kubernetes egress and ISP peers are rarely “just BGP.” They’re usually an interaction between routing policy, node/kernel behavior, CNI dataplane changes, and real physical circuit
