Packet capture is a network analysis technique used to collect and inspect individual packets of data traveling across a computer network. Instead of only seeing whether a connection is working, packet capture allows engineers, administrators, and cybersecurity professionals to examine what is actually moving between devices. A capture can reveal source and destination IP addresses,…

Canaan’s newest air-cooled Avalon generation has crossed the 300 TH/s line without pushing a single miner far beyond the roughly four-kilowatt electrical envelope familiar to industrial mining sites. The company’s current catalog lists the Avalon A16-282T at 282 TH/s and 3,900 W, while the A16XP-300T reaches 300 TH/s at 3,850 W. That puts the two…

FortiOS, the operating system used across FortiGate firewall appliances, is built on a heavily modified Linux kernel. This means the underlying operating system shares important architectural roots with Linux, including concepts related to networking, processes, interfaces, system resources, logging, and kernel-level traffic handling. Fortinet then builds its own proprietary networking, security, management, and firewall technologies…

A digital multimeter is a tool used to measure electrical values. For a beginner, the three measurements to recognize first are voltage, current, and resistance. Think of It as Three Tools in One Voltage (V): electrical potential difference between two points. Current (A): electrical current flowing through a circuit. Resistance (Ω): opposition to current flow.…
