  06/08/2021 - <b>New ISP</b><br>
  <br>
</div>
<div class="outer">
  +--------------------------+<br>
</div>
<div class="inner">
  <p>
    Once again in the process of moving and I've subscribed to a new
    ISP. This comes with some good news and some bad news. Good news
    is it's a fiber connection that will be much faster. The bad news
    is it is not a business class connection like my previous
    connection was (as I wouldn't have been able to afford a business
    class fiber connection) which limits the support I'll get from the
    ISP I'm sure. For example IPv6 support appears to be
    non-existant. This means www and ipv6.swagg.net will still carry
    on (as they're migrated to the cloud) however the hostnames I have
    self-hosted still such as chat and mirror.swagg.net will not. Also
    as I haven't moved just yet, there will be downtime when I move
    the gear this weekend (6/11/2021 - 6/13/2021).
  </p>
  <p>
    I hope to restore IPv6 support one way or another... If the ISP
    won't support this then I'll be left to implement some sort of
    tunnel. I performed a tcpdump from my new firewall and haven't
    seen any IPv6 traffic outside of the firewall throwing out
    unanswered DHCPv6 requests but other subscribers in my area report
    IPv6 being turned on throughout this year. More to come...

  6/25/2020 - <b>Major Downtime Coming</b><br>
  <br>

    I am going to be moving equipment this weekend (6/26/2020 to
    6/28/2020) so there may be a full day or two of downtime while I piece
    everything together. In the future I'm going to move the MOTD and this
    little news section to another server because this message kind of
    defeats the purpose (didn't help I posted it at the last minute
    WHOOPS)

    I purchased the swagg.net domain name last year but never go
    around to cutting over from the old one. As with the move from
    swagg.ddns.net, I'm going to hold onto swagg.cc to serve redirects
    but eventually I'll be letting it go as swagg.cc actually costs me
    money

    Due to me physically moving my server (and everything) to my new
    place in Northern VA, there was some downtime (2 days) and
    SwaggNet now has all new IP addresses. I think it's done now but
    there may be some more downtime at night during the weekend as I
    have to clean up my cabling as things got a bit spaghettified
    during the move and I haven't had the time to unravel it all.

  5/13/2019 - <b>New domain name</b> (and IPv6!!)<br>
  <br>
</div>
<div class="outer">
  +--------------------------+<br>
</div>
<div class="inner">
  <p>
    I've been quietly playing around with IPv6 for some time and
    finally felt comfortable going "global" with it, however the old
    domain name (swagg.ddns.net) was a free Dynamic DNS name and thus
    was not configurable as an AAAA (IPv6)
    record. Therefore <a href="http://swagg.cc">swagg.cc</a> is now
    the new domain name for SwaggNet and swagg.ddns.net has be
    reconfigured to simply point to swagg.cc and will stay that way as
    long as I can hold on to that name. swagg.cc should now resolve to
    IPv4 or IPv6 and if you're curious or want to test your own IPv6
    configuration, I've also
    created <a href="http://ipv6.swagg.cc">ipv6.swagg.cc</a> which
    will only be used for IPv6 records so using ipv6.swagg.cc should
    essentially force an IPv6 session if everything's been set up
    correctly.
