In this final segment, I’m going to share my firewall settings that allow my #3CX system to function for both internal phones and external mobile users. This has been enjoyable discovering since I wasn’t able to find any other 3CX users using a Palo Alto firewall (probably because if they are using a Palo Alto, […]
I’m going to start off by apologizing for this being REALLY late in coming. I never intended it to take so long. However, shortly after I made the original post, I ended up doing some major overhauls to my #HomeLab network. As a result and a few purchases later, I’m finally back up and running […]

So I was hoping to have a productive weekend playing around with the new Workspace ONE Access 21.08 appliance until I ran into a couple snags. The first I ran into while configuring the new appliance and it turns out it was recently added to the “Known Issues” section of their release notes. You cannot […]
As I prep for my next blog entry on the SAML Authentication with WS ONE Access, I was searching for the silent installation switches or options for the connector software. My script handles deploying the appliance in a semi-automated fashion, but I wanted to also automate the connector installation. Or at least, make it a […]
This is the next part of my multi-part series on setting up SAML Authentication using the VMware Workspace ONE Access product. If you missed my earlier posts, you can review them here: Part 1: Preparation Part 1.5: Database Changes Part 2: Primary Node Deployment and Config Part 3: Load Balancer Configuration Part 4: SSL Configuration […]

Details on what the issues are can be found here and here. Versions 7.0.8 and 7.1.5 were released this past week that fix the two vulnerabilities. Here is the downside: The […]
