When the production network is down, what network do you use to fix the network?
We joined @tomammon and @rtggeek on The Hedge to discuss why a properly designed Out-of-Band Management Network is more than just another management VLAN.
#OutOfBandManagement #NetworkArchitecture
Most designers and operators default to carrying all traffic–including network management traffic–across the same paths as application data, or in band. Is this the right choice, or should operators seriously consider creating an out-of-band network just for network management? If you decide to build an out-of-band network, what are some of the considerations and lessons learned? Daryll Swer joins Tom and Russ to discuss.

Still treating BGP Router IDs like IPv4 addresses?
In #IPv6-only networks, they're simply 32-bit identifiers. @SwerNetworks @DaryllSwer shares structured, human-readable Router ID schemes that scale with modern networks.

Still tying BGP Router IDs to IPv4?
That model is outdated.
In IPv6-native architectures, it’s time for logic-driven, structured IDs.
