    I used to work at a place about 10 years ago where we had a cluster of six Android devices that we had used for our SMS gateway. At the time it worked fantastic, we eventually roll…

    The proxy is part of our platform so the source isn't public, but the concept is straightforward and the blog post covers the core logic. Happy to answer questions about the approa…

    Yeah IPv6 would solve this because we wouldn't have to go through the proxy at all, since each VM could get their own. Unfortunately IPv6 isn't quite as supported as we'd like.

    Good call, I should have made that more clear. Article updated!

    You definitely can once the device has a hostname set in set-inform. The MAC proxy is just for initial adoption where a device may only know the IP. Such as when you use DHCP Optio…

    Thank you! DNS-based adoption works well for this. You point the unifi hostname at the tenant's subdomain and the Host header handles routing from there. We also have a DHCP Option…

    It would definitely be simpler, however the routing issue still stands. You would need to have a public IP for every VM, which is getting less practical. The MAC-based proxy makes …

    We support two approaches, you can either pre-register MAC-Addresses or you can add source IP's to assist with that mapping. There is more information in our docs about this: https…

    Now that would be interesting! Multi-vendor support is on the radar, but haven't started looking into it much yet.

    Yep, once you set-inform the host header handles the routing. This in particular is most useful for things like DHCP Option 43, where devices only get an IP.

    Ask HN: How to give better internal demos of in progress work?

    Often I’m called upon to give a quick demo of some in progress projects I’m working on. I’m not much of a salesman so I tend to be light on details. What sort of tips do you have t…

    This is similar to how I approach things on my todo list as well. If the task is going to take less than five minutes just do it now and be done with it.
