It’s been boiling outside all week; it’s crazy. I can’t imagine how people work on the street; they are hard workers. So here’s what I did this week. At first, I had an Intel i5-based computer with 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB SSD, installed new Windows 10Pro, CPT, and GNS3 operating systems, and configured the RDP. I set up an IPsec VPN client and firewall for my laptop. It works great. Now I have a computer for laboratory work. I must remember working with Cisco network devices and fixing problems quickly. After that, I have to get CCNA and CCNP certification.

Lunch is almost over, and I’m finished with the Telegram bot theme. I will make notes about Linux logs in a few days and create a few scripts.
After that, I will do my Cisco laboratory work and prepare for the certification. In the US, Cisco is the most, so I have no choice )

Today, I posted a working version of my telegram bot. After tests and many alterations, this version will be the main one I posted on GitHub. I will provide explanations and an example of the work when I have time.

Well, I’ve got sick. The temperature is still high on the second day, and I haven’t been ill like this for a long time. Lying in bed is boring, and there is no desire to watch TV. I hadn’t watched it for two years but realized I needed to work on my resume. I’ve made several attempts, but it hasn’t been successful enough yet. As it turned out, writing a resume is not an easy task since I have no experience. I didn’t run back and forth; there was always an exciting, decent job and enough money.
I reread several hundred different resources, I even had to remember, open past documents to calculate the percentages of my effectiveness.
There is a result; only time will tell how good it will be. I’ll update it here on LinkedIn and Indeed.

While dealing with the telegram bot, I learned to send messages using curl in Bash. That is a crazy thing. Use your imagination, and you can do many things. Now I am thinking about network controllers and need to buy some.

There are two different things: start a script in a terminal and start a script as a service. I thought I was done with the scripts then, but I was not. As a service, Windows scripts didn’t work correctly.
So I changed the bot`s version and upgraded it to 20 versions, but I got into a lot of trouble. This document helped me, and now it finally works. Now, I must gather all my notes and make a cheat sheet for memory.

I launched a telegram bot but can’t run a script from it on a Windows system. With Linux, there are no problems, and automation scripts work.

I think I can see these guys from my workplace today)

Yesterday, I moved the domain itbumper.com to the domain itbumper.ru and decided not to do anything with the MX domain. Now, the domain itbumper.ru works for Russia, and the domain itbumper.com for the US. Currently, any request for itbumper.com is redirected to my first project in the US.

Today, I came back to the quiet place again for lunch. Nice place!

The world of IT is a great thing. Using your smartphone, you can be in one place and change things in another. For example, I was using Telegram bots. I have almost finished some experiments and will create one bot to help me do my job more efficiently. Today, I found one more place to have lunch; it was a quiet place.

The weather is so cool, and I have lunch outside. During the lunch, I thought. I need to keep the ITBumer project but split domains. All content from the website itbumper.com has to be moved to the itbumper.ru. The same goes for mail domains. I think it is the right time to do this. While I have an infrastructure opportunity, I will run all services there, although, in the US, businesses use AWS and Google Cloud. I will find out how it works, but it will be later. Next week, I would like to spend time with the Cisco Packet Tracer. I need to refresh my knowledge and make some cheat sheets.

And here’s a picture of the place where I stopped for lunch. What a fantastic weather!
