“Switch in the wrong direction…” oh my, that does sound bad.
We use VLANs for isolating network traffic. Our switches will happily forward all VLANs as on all ports. So a tagged VLAN on port 1 will be transmitted to port 2, if port two responds with an answer on the VLAN. It all just works.
The new switches are configured so that all the ports are in “access” mode. Access mode means that VLAN traffic does not move across the switch. All of our testing showed that the new switches would just work.
They did, for the primary, untagged network. Unfortunately, the new switch is “smarter” and refused to forward VLAN traffic.
The idea of a port in “access” mode is that you can plug an IoT item, think security camera, into a port. All traffic from that port is then forwarded as VLAN traffic, by configuration. This means that the IoT item doesn’t need to support VLANs nor do you have to configure it.
By changing the ports to the correct setting, things just started to work.

“We are the government, and we are here to fuck things up.”
I’m getting some back channel reports that things have gone kinetic down in the disaster area. These are good ol’ boys and they understand the three S’s. Shoot, Shovel, Shut up.
My reports say that looters were hitting some communities. The looters have gone missing. SSS.
It is unclear if the looters in question had government ID.
The number of reports of the government messing things up down there is growing daily.
The latest story was of one of the helicopter teams having rescued an elderly couple attempted to get them checked into a local hotel, outside the disaster area. They were turned away because there were no vacancies.
The hotel was filled with government employees.
The pilot was talking about how they had been living out of their trucks so that there was room for those that needed it in the hotels.
Seems the government is not as thoughtful.
Pay careful attention to the words coming out of the puppet and his handlers.
They appear to have deployed 1000 men to the disaster area. They are claiming that these 1000 men are joining 6000 men already on the ground at work.
Yes, there are 6000 military men on the ground, getting the job done. They are volunteers there as citizens, not as government employees. They are not under the command of anybody in the government.
Don’t trust what the MSM says, don’t trust what the government says. Verify everything. Don’t trust my words, check for yourself.

Iran, the Target
Watching my feed blowup over the last 48 hours regarding Iran’s open attack on Israel has been mind-blowing. Hundreds of accounts showing the same footage of explosions in the distance while claiming huge victories for Iran.
Israel’s ability to wage war was not affected. We know because of the targeted strikes carried out Thursday night.
Query
Does anybody have firsthand knowledge of what’s going on down in the disaster area?
