    Need a firewall appliance with certain abilities

    I think the OP has a service running with opened ports, likely 80 & 443. In order to filter who's allowed to visit it and who not, Geocaching can be used, but it can also easily be fooled if you play around with Client side VPN & Proxy. A good start is to block EVERYTHING and then move on with...

    Need a firewall appliance with certain abilities

    Have a look at Rhode & Schwarz appliances. They acquired gateprotect and have their devices listed as UTM. You can download the ISO and use it for 30 days, full featured. The 9.6.x versions use the old app based GUI. Version 10.x uses the new web based gui. YOu should be able to block what you...

    New build locks up.

    My system had hard locks for 2-10 secs but then recovered to normal operation. It took me months to find the reason. Maybe yours is similar. Intel IRST has a well known bug that may affect your system. Any IRST driver later than 16.2 does trigger that on my rig, that's why I am still on 16.2...

    Intel Officials Allegedly Say that Apple Could Move to ARM Soon

    Well, that was with some nm left to work with but we are getting to the point of diminishing returns in rather big steps, so we started adding cores/circuits and make it more complex. Also this has a finite amount of what can de done and diminishing returns are already present, acording to what...

    Intel Officials Allegedly Say that Apple Could Move to ARM Soon

    Indeed, now give the ARM equal TDP and 2 years time. ARM has many more options to adopt it's design, X86 hasn't. Love my Xs btw.

    Intel Officials Allegedly Say that Apple Could Move to ARM Soon

    Not so sure. Looking at my new, ARM driven, cell phone, it outclasses many of the PC's I come across in daily life, from a CPU power perspective. X86 is not getting more efficient anymore. Adding circuits is not an endless option, and with 5 or latest at 3nm the end of the pole has been...

    Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB RAM Experiences @ [H]

    If heatspreaders on JEDEC spec RAM were essential, you'd see them on every Dell and HP server, and we don't. Contrary, when I used to boost mine beyond 3600 and beyond 1.35volts...they got real warm, despite the heatspreader. That's why some of those kits even have additional RAM coolers, for...

    SuperMicro Wants to Re-Enter the Gaming Motherboard Market

    I wouldnt buy into Asus IPMI again. I have it on a X99 WS/IPMI board for a server and it is on no way comparable to an iDRAC Enterprise or HP equivalent. It is the most unreliable IPMI I have come across. The cost for proper IPMI hardware is that high, that a 500€ board cannot have it both...

    Future Processors Could Circulate Coolant Between 3D Chip Stacks

    Ehhhhh...NO ! and you still need to make I's to 0's...and that causes a lot of heat. Where to with all the charge from all those I's that are now 0's ? One could say to forget causes a lot of energy to go somewhere else.
