DENOG8 - Lightning Talks
Channel: DENOG
Date: 2020-11-10

INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTERMUSEUM MÜNCHEN
The Computermuseum München is an effort by some vintage computing enthusiasts to bring vintage computers of all sizes back to life and preserve knowledge about system architectures. In several groups, we collect, restore and run computers from the 8-bit era, mini computers (mostly DEC), several Unix systems, as well as supercomputers from NEC, Control Data and Cray Research. I’m an active member of the supercomputing group. The lightning talk will give a short introduction into our organization, a brief overview on our collection and aims to initiate a discussion (for the breaks, not while the talk) on how to display vintage network technology like Frame Relay, FDDI or ATM.

NESTING DWDM WITHIN CWDM
Sometimes old CWDM Muxes could use an ‘upgrade’ but can’t be fully replaced. Since DWDM waves are so tiny and overlap with CWDM Channels they should fit, shouldn’t they? This talk will outline which waves fit and why, and what to consider.

TURRIS OMNIA ROUTER, THE OPEN-SOURCE CENTER OF YOUR HOME
Home router is necessary to connect you to the Internet but it is idle most of the time, just eating electricity. Why not use it for more tasks? With powerful hardware, Turris Omnia can handle gigabit traffic and still be able to do much more. You can use it as a home server, NAS, printserver and it even has a virtual server built-in.
