Setting up Tailscale on the Zyxel USG Flex 500H gateway
Tailscale can now be centrally deployed on the security gateway. We'll tell you how to deploy Tailscale and Headscale on the Zyxel USG Flex500, cross internal networks, organize an exit node, and use unique features, from publishing local services to mesh routing via NAT and firewall.
Medium-sized offices and home labs require a flexible solution that allows users to securely connect to a corporate or private network from anywhere in the world. One of the most convenient tools for this is ...
Let's explore the features of Zyxel XMG1930-30HP, a switch with 2.5G/10G PoE ports and licensed L3 functions
Zyxel reasoned this way: if the L3 functionality is already determined only by the firmware, 99% choose an access switch for the sake of port density, PoE, VLAN, Multicast, and less often for static routing, then here's the base model XMG1930, which is generally L2, but slightly L3. And if your network requires advanced L3 functions, then all this is also there, just buy the appropriate license and get the core-level functionality. You can do this at any time, even when buying a device, even ...
Zyxel XGS2220-30HP - L3 Access switch for modern converged networks
This L3 layer switch has 4 x 10-Gigabit SFP+ slots, 1-Gigabit PoE+ ports for the main fleet of devices, NVR/VoIP optimized interface, support for Nebula cloud service and multi-Gigabit PoE+ ports for Wi-Fi 6 access points. That is, Zyxel has added a maximum of functions to make it the most versatile.
In the Zyxel hierarchy, the XGS2220 series refers to access switches, that is, to the lowest level that serves end devices and access points. We are used to the fact that cheap maintenance-free ...
We explore Zyxel Connect & Protect and answer the main questions: is it possible to do without a security gateway?
From the point of view of the network, a modern facility can be just one access point connected directly to the WAN from the provider, and there are enough resources on this access point to raise the VPN tunnel to the headquarters, and for NAT, and to configure restrictions for customers and for basic protection of customers and employees.
No, but really, why should an expensive security gateway be built on a small facility where the network infrastructure is completely wireless? Modern ...
Will Zyxel Nebula survive on the sovereign internet?
What will happen to your network if the Iron Curtain suddenly falls, and the Global Internet turns into something sovereign and all cross-border channels are blocked? Let's simulate this situation and tell you how to unsign the device from Nebula without Internet access.
We have reviewed the Nebula Control Center management system from Zyxel many times. This is a cloud service that allows you to configure and monitor the company's network stack via the Internet, including setting up Wi-Fi, ...
Orchestration of wireless networks in Zyxel Nebula CC: configuring horizontal traffic protection and shaping
Modern Zyxel access points allow you to work in NAT and bridge mode simultaneously for different SSIDs, connect users using 2FA, shape traffic depending on the application and flexibly use VLANs. Let's look at how you can configure a wireless network to protect horizontal traffic.
Modern networks are gradually changing the traditional topology, in which a security gateway was installed on top, and the network was segmented at L2/L3 levels using switches from below. The modern network is ...
