KBT/BMO Documentation

From AptivateOER

Link all useful documentation from the BMO Training Course here. If you want to create a new page, use the convention of starting the name with KBT/ to separate it from other projects on this wiki.

There is no need to replicate huge amounts of information here, which is already covered elsewhere. Much of the content of this course comes from the book How to Accelerate Your Internet aka "The BMO Book". If you want to reference a section from this book in a wiki page, you can use the following syntax:

  {{Bwmo|Chapter0|see the "About this book" section}}

which appears as:

see the "About this book" section

This is the structure we started working on before we decided it would be easier to put the documentation into sections once it is written:

• Introduction
• Building the BMO Box
  • Installation of OSs
    • Ubuntu
    • Free BSD

• Networking
  • Theory
  • Design of Large Networks
  • Troubleshooting

And here are the sections, waiting to be put into some sort of order:

• Problem Solving
• How to Build a Good Working Environment with Your Users
• Network maps and using them
• FreeBSD Basics
• Firewalling Basics
• Bridging and Transparent Firewalls
• Firewalling with iptables on Ubuntu
• Transparent bridging on Ubuntu
• Using NAT on Ubuntu
• Introduction to Bandwidth Monitoring
• Introduction to Packet Sniffing
• Introduction to Bandwidth Management

• What makes good documentation?
• What do we want to do with the BMO documentation?
• How do we get the BMO documentation in the right state?
• More Bandwidth Management
• What to do with the BMO Box (UON example)
• More Advanced Traffic Shaping
• Web Bandwidth Management
• Acceptable Use Policy
• Intrusion Detection Systems
• Case Studies by Institution
• How to build the BMO Box
