i’ve been mucking about with calico on my #homelab #kubernetes cluster, and it took me far far too long to visit the whisker console: https://docs.tigera.io/calico/latest/observability/view-flow-logs

this is unbelievably helpful for debugging firewall rules

i’m very tempted to switch to calico on my non-k8s systems now (e.g. Linux gaming PC), so i can be back to only having 1 firewall abstraction in my brain

    Looks neat, but I can’t seem to find docs for non-container workloads. I’m using microvms and using it with them would be cool.

    If you want an easy firewall option for a gaming PC, I’d recommend looking at Portmaster
