- [Wayback/Archive] jilles.com ๐ MCH2022 ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ on Twitter: “My Ubiquity setup stopped working (again). This happens way to often in my opinion. I have setup a monitoring environment to debug the issues and consider it not reliable enough for the amount of money I spend on it.”

- [Wayback/Archive] Rick on Twitter: “@jilles_com Waar heb je problemen mee? En ik tijdelijk een syslog server draaien. Dan je kun je gemakkelijker de logs doorspitten (kiwi heeft een simpele gratis versie)”
- [Wayback/Archive] jilles.com on Twitter: “@RickvanSoest Ik draai een grafana setup met syslog, snmp ingest en een losse traceroute om uit te sluiten of het aan de provider of de hardware ligt.”
- [Wayback/Archive] jilles.com on Twitter: “@RickvanSoest Software upgrades die falen. In dit geval een PoE switch die op zโn gat lag. In dit geval iets dat met een reboot gefixt is. Maar in geval van de upgrade was het een compleet nieuwe configuratie.”
In todays cross-platform world, it pays if your tooling can send logging to syslog.
