Passen Sie Ihre Fritzbox an, um Traffic-Shaping zu ermöglichen

Zusammenfassung:

Hol dir den aktuellen Freetz-Quellcode von deren Website oder den entsprechenden freetz-1.2_rc2.tar.bz2 (ausgecheckt am 21.03.2012) von meinem Webspace für den Patch.
installieren Sie den freetz-1.2_rc2.patch oder verwenden Sie mein vorkompiliertes Image für die FritzBox 7270v3 (englisch) oder mein vorkompiliertes Image für die FritzBox 7270v3 (deutsch) (Informationen über fritzbox priorisierung streaming weiter unten im Text lesen).
Quellcode kompilieren, Firewall/qos-Regeln einrichten.

Irgendwann im Jahr 2010 hatte ich den Freetz-Source gepatcht, um hauptsächlich zwei Scheduler (cbq, htb), den u32-Filter und eine funktionierende tc (Traffic Control)-Binary hinzuzufügen. Diese sind für QoS unter Linux üblich, um die Bandbreite auf einer speziellen Quell-/Zieladresse, einem Port, einem IP-Protokoll oder einer Firewall zu verwalten.

Passen Sie Ihre Fritzbox an, um Traffic-Shaping zu ermöglichen

Die Zeit ist vergangen und die meisten meiner Änderungen wurden dem 1.2-Zweig hinzugefügt und andere haben verschiedene Filter hinzugefügt. Hier können Sie meinen aktuellen Patch und kompilierte Firmware-Images herunterladen:

Ich habe Dropbear (ssh), nfs, ntfs, ext3, fat32, Network Scheduler (cbq, htb, llq, sfq, prio), Network Filter (u32, fw) und für iptables (conntrack, xt_mark, masquerade, mangle, filter) aktiviert.

Meine Änderungen sind derzeit nur das Hinzufügen eines einwandfrei funktionierenden tc zum Build-Skript und einiger Filter. Du musst deine eigene tc für eine funktionierende Filterung kompilieren. Wenn Sie die vorinstallierte Version von AVMs verwenden, erhalten Sie eine Meldung wie:

root@fritz:/var/mod/root# tc filter add dev ath0 parent 1:0 protocol ip u32 matc
h ip dst 192.168.0.21/32 classid 1:10
Unbekannter Filter „u32“, daher ist die Option „match“ nicht vergleichbar.

auch wenn Sie das richtige Kernelmodul geladen haben.

Anwendungsbeispiel für Traffic Shaping:

Okay, das war’s. Nun einige Hinweise zu QoS, Traffic Shaping und Networking mit Linux im Allgemeinen:

Zuerst fügen Sie eine qdisc mit tc hinzu:

#tc qdisc add dev ath0 root handle 1:0 htb

qdisc (Warteschlangendisziplin) ist elementar für das Verständnis der Verkehrsregelung. Wann immer der Kernel ein Paket an eine Schnittstelle senden muss, wird es an die für diese Schnittstelle konfigurierte qdisc angehängt. Unmittelbar danach versucht der Kernel, so viele Pakete wie möglich von der qdisc zu erhalten, um sie an den Netzwerkadaptertreiber weiterzugeben. Wir verwenden in diesem Skript classful htb. Der htb qdisc, oder hierarchischer Token Bucket, ist ein klassenfüllendes Shaping qdisc. Es bietet viel Flexibilität und verfügt über zahlreiche Optionen. Es berechnet vernünftige Standardwerte für alles, was Sie nicht angeben, was im Allgemeinen in Ordnung ist. Und es ist viel einfacher zu bedienen als cbq.

Übergeordnete Klasse

  • Fügen Sie nun eine übergeordnete Klasse hinzu und legen Sie Ihre Bandbreitenbeschränkungen fest:
  • #tc class add dev ath0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 7mbit ceiling 7mbit
  • Klassenreiche qdiscs enthalten Klassen, die es uns ermöglichen, Ratenbegrenzungen festzulegen. Klasse 1:1 ist hier die Wurzelklasse.
    Geben Sie die Unterklassen für Ihre Hosts oder Gruppen von Hosts an:
  • #tc class add dev ath0 parent 1:1 classid 1:10 htb rate 1512kbit ceil 7mbit
    #tc class add dev ath0 parent 1:1 classid 1:11 htb rate 4mbit ceil 7mbit
    #tc class add dev ath0 parent 1:1 classid 1:12 htb rate 2mbit ceil 7mbit
  • Dies ist die Blattklasse 1:10, die an die Wurzelklasse 1:1 angehängt ist. Die Gestaltung kann in der Blattklasse und nicht in der Wurzelklasse erfolgen. In diesem Beispiel von Blattklassen weisen wir jeder Klasse 1512kbit, 4mbit und 2mbit Bandbreite zu.
    Rate: garantierte (minimale Bandbreite), die überschritten werden kann.
    Decke: burstable (maximale Bandbreite), die nicht überschritten werden darf.
    Füge nun einen Griff mit fw-Markierungen hinzu. Wir können iptables und damit dem Kernel sagen, dass er spezielle Pakete markieren soll (wie alle Pakete, die von einem definierten Host kommen oder gehen).
  • #tc filter add dev ath0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 handle 2 fw classid 1:10
    #tc filter add dev ath0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 handle 3 fw classid 1:11
    #tc filter add dev ath0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 handle 4 fw classid 1:12
  • Wir verwenden Filter, um die Pakete in einen Out zu klassifizieren.

IBM Watson wants to build blockchain with artificial intelligence

Good news from the IT conglomerate IBM: The technology giant is working on a solution with which the company wants to merge artificial intelligence with the blockchain.
What does artificial intelligence have in common with the blockchain?

The blockchain promises smooth transfer of currency units and can therefore process a lot of data in a short time. On the other hand, there is artificial intelligence: it can examine and semantically record huge amounts of data. As an open transaction book, the blockchain therefore offers special possibilities for analyzing large amounts of data with the help of artificial intelligence. If both constructs were brought together, we would all be faced with a new paradigm, according to CoinDesk.

Bitcoin profit: Watson with Blockchain

Over the past three months, IBM’s Chief Architect Tim Hahn has been working on Bitcoin profit integration for the Internet of Things (IoT) division in Watson. Watson is the computer with artificial intelligence developed by IBM. Hahn told CoinDesk: https://www.geldplus.net/en/bitcoin-profit-review/

What we are currently working on the blockchain and the devices will make it possible to use the information gained from the devices to influence the blockchain. Things we usually see in movies are starting to come true.

Possible applications

One can obviously imagine Distributed Ledger applications, with which devices can automatically carry out a kind of self-diagnosis at certain time intervals. With advanced technologies one would like to make a digital time travel possible. Developers and authorities should be able to rewind a device at a certain point in time, so that it can be traced which error occurred at that time and caused certain problems.

The project is still in its infancy, but IBM is investing heavily in future Internet of Things technologies: with a volume of three billion US dollars, the IoT division is to be built up over the next four years. However, this includes many different technologies, ranging from washing machines to networked thermostats.

Internet of Things: Bitcoin profit potential

One of the four core areas into which the IoT division is divided is the storage and processing of data. It is precisely in this area that the Bitcoin profit should be used. At the moment you are trying out different possibilities for Bitcoin profit. Among other things, the idea has already been developed that users can register their devices via the blockchain. The owner can then use this link to manage usage rights and, for example, give family members the right to access the functions of the device.

Opinion of the author (Max):

It is not surprising that „the big players“ in the ring also invest in blockchain technologies. What IBM can count on in any case is the shown initiative. In contrast to many larger corporations that have invested in similar projects, not only financial expenditure seems to be involved here. IBM is working on the solution itself and is presenting the first concrete applications that could be implemented with Watson.

Many companies leave a lot to be desired with this initiative: unplanned investments and purely financial cooperations, without concrete objectives and their own resources, are unfortunately to be observed very frequently.

In any case, I see the project as a feasible idea that has not come from heaven. The IoT industry in particular requires new solutions when it comes to managing devices and access rights.

Bitcoin Mining

Bitcoin Mining: Farming funds for professional investors

Bitcoin Mining gets a private equity fund. Venture capital companies will be able to invest in Bitcoin mining farms in the future. The planned farms will also purchase green electricity – but will also centralise mining.

Entering Bitcoin Mining will be easier for institutional investors in the future – and in the best case also more lucrative. While a mass media grave is being dug while digging for the largest of all crypto currencies, the seemingly beleaguered industry will not be further impressed. According to a press release issued by BTC-ECHO, XOLARIS Service KVAG has launched a special AIF for professional investors. The private equity fund invests through a Liechtenstein target company in the infrastructure necessary for the production of Bitcoins. This is intended to financially support an already existing operational mining farm in Sweden.

Bitcoin trader: OTC investment opportunities for venture capital companies

Private equity funds are used to invest in promising Bitcoin trader companies like this https://www.geldplus.net/en/bitcoin-trader-review/ in order to promote their development and growth targets and make them achievable. Once the targets have been achieved, the acquired shares can be sold at a profit or the company can be placed on the stock exchange. Often the support of the companies goes beyond financial support and is complemented by entrepreneurial advice.

Private investors benefit both during the investment period and after the final profit from the sale of shares or the stock exchange placement. As this is an investment form for investors with comparatively high capital, it is particularly attractive for institutional investors. The focus is on companies that already go beyond the start-up or development phase.

Private equity or over-the-counter equity capital or private equity capital is thus a form of so-called equity capital in which the investment cannot be traded on regulated markets or stock exchanges. The investors are often capital investment companies, which are also known as private equity companies. In the case of risky young companies, this is referred to as venture capital. The investors are accordingly called venture financing companies or venture capital companies. (Source: Finanztreff.de)

Private Equity Funds for crypto trader

In order to make Bitcoin Mining attractive to professional crypto trader investors within such a regulated crypto trader framework, there is now the private equity fund „Bitcoin Farming“. There is also a first investment object already. This is located in Sweden with approximately 2,000 high-performance computers. Due to the current Bitcoin price, mining is currently still below the market price. However, due to the total volume defined in the Bitcoin protocol and the associated deflation, the company expects rising prices in the medium to long term.

However, what is associated with the concentration of Bitcoin mining farms on large investors and institutional investors is an increasing centralisation of Bitcoin mining, as has already been criticised again and again by Bitmain. Ultimately, it is this concentration of mining processes that the company hopes will increase its competitiveness. This is what the press release says:

„Due to the ever more complex calculation steps required to produce a Bitcoin, ever more specialised high-performance technology is required. It is therefore of the utmost importance to us that we have ensured via our network that we have access to the latest mining rigs in large quantities at all times. In the future, the production of new Bitcoin will be distributed among fewer and larger market participants. The fund is designed in such a way that we constantly adapt our computing power to demand and thus remain competitive in the long term“,

explains Marc Stehr, the initiator of the fund.

Bomb threats in the USA: blackmailers demand Bitcoin

In the United States of America, a particularly audacious e-mail is making the rounds. Blackmailers threaten to blow up public buildings and demand a ransom in Bitcoin.

Terrorism à la Bitcoin formula:

The Bitcoin formula blackmailers demand 20,000 US dollars in Bitcoin – otherwise they want to blow up buildings. As heavy.com reported on 13 December on https://www.geldplus.net/en/bitcoin-formula-review/, an e-mail went out to public institutions and private individuals threatened with bombs. According to the reports, the blackmailer’s e-mail said:

„How do you do? My mercenary carried the bomb into the building where your business is run. My mercenary built the bomb under my direction. It can be hidden anywhere because of its small size, it is impossible to destroy the supporting building structure with this explosive, but if it identifies itself as such, there will be many injured.

My recruited person observes the situation around the building. If he notices suspicious activities, panic or police officers, the device will be blown up.

I can call my husband back when you make a Bitcoin trader transaction

The price for your security is $20,000. Send it to me in Bitcoin and I assure you that I will withdraw my mercenary so that the bomb does not detonate. But don’t try to fool me – my warranty only comes into effect after 3 confirmations in the Bitcoin trader blockchain like this: https://www.forexaktuell.com/en/bitcoin-trader-scam/

If there are problems with the transaction, you have to solve it by the end of the day. When the working day is over and people start leaving the building, the bomb will explode.“

„Nothing Personal
As one can further infer from the threats, it is nothing personal, rather the extortion is purely business threats:

„It’s nothing personal, just a business. If I don’t see the Bitcoin and a bomb explodes, other companies will send me more Bitcoin next time, because it’s not a one-time action.

I won’t log in to this email anymore, I monitor my wallet every twenty minutes and when I receive the money, I’ll give my husband the order to leave.

If the bomb explodes and the authorities see this email, we are not a terrorist society and do not take responsibility for explosions in other places.

However, as the local police in Oklahoma point out, such threats have been received in large numbers. However, they are not to be taken seriously, rather they have so far been able to determine „nothing to be taken seriously“. So it says in the tweet of the responsible authority:

We’re working a number of bomb threat calls in OKC. There have been similar threats called into several locations around the country. No credible threat found at this point. We encourage the public to continue to be vigilant and call with anything suspicious.

– Oklahoma City Police (@OKCPD) 13 December 2018

Suspicion of Scam
Similar threats became known at the beginning of November. Here, blackmailers in the Netherlands threatened with hand grenades if those affected did not comply with the ransom demand. So far, however, there have been no known explosions.

Bitcoin

Laszlo and the Bitcoin pizzas

On May 18, 2010 another message appeared in the online forum bitcointalk.org, which was supposed to make similarly high waves:

I pay 10,000 bitcoins for a few pizzas. Maybe two big ones, that I still have something left the next day. I like pizzas to nibble on later. You can make the pizza yourself and bring it home to me or order it from a delivery service. What I want is to get food delivered in exchange for Bitcoins without having to prepare it myself. Like a breakfast plate in a hotel or something – they just bring you something to eat and you’re happy! I like onions, peppers, sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, salami etc.. But only the standard stuff, nothing funny with fish or anything. I also like very simple cheese pizzas, which may be cheaper to prepare or get. If someone is interested, let me know and we can negotiate a deal. Thank you, Laszlo.

Excerpt from the Bitcoin news at the end

After four days Laszlo announced that he got pizza for his 10.000 Bitcoins. What he didn’t know was Bitcoin news that the 10,000 Bitcoins would already be worth over 2,000 euros in November of the same year, almost 40,000 euros two years later and over 160 million euros in December 2017. However, by introducing Bitcoin news into the goods cycle, he has done important pioneering work. This was the only way the digital coins could get a countervalue.

The party continues
Much has happened at Bitcoin since Satoshi published his white paper and Laszlo pioneered Bitcoin as a barter object. The economic climax of Bitcoin’s history probably came in December last year: the often quoted bubble swelled so much that more speculation than utility was involved – simply too much air had been pumped into Bitcoin. But also the current events around Mt.Gox, Dread Pirate Roberts and the mysterious Wallet 1933p show: With its tender ten years the good Bitcoin must still grow properly.

Bitcoin formula: Unknown

Who wrote this Bitcoin formula has not yet been clarified. Again and again curious people tried to find the person or group of people behind the Bitcoin formula pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Initially, he worked with an open source team. He attached great importance to not divulging any personal data.

In 2009, Satoshi Nakamoto released the first Bitcoin client and communicated with the Bitcoin community until the end of 2010. He then disappeared from the scene without a trace. Analysis methods of the white paper from criminalistics, research on forums or inquiries in his sphere of influence ultimately did not lead to exact results.

Nevertheless we wish: Happy financial crisis and Happy Bitcoin Birthday!

open source

A comparison of the funding models of Monero, Dash & Zcash

Crypto currencies are usually open source. For a truly decentralized currency on the Internet, it is necessary to build trust. Bitcoin demonstrated this with an open source code, which means that anyone with an Internet connection can view and evaluate the computer code. So you don’t have to trust a middleman, but can convince yourself of the processes in the technology.

However, open nature also brings with it a difficulty, namely the monetization of further development. How can a developer spend his mind and energy on something that is directly accessible to everyone and can be copied, and earn money with it?

There are different answers to this question. In her own study, Nadja Eghbal addresses this issue and compared the financing models of Dash, Monero and Zcash. She compared the projects in points 1) application process, 2) financing source, 3) decision process and 4) accountability.

The three different Bitcoin news

In Dash, the approximately 4,800 master nodes determine how ten percent of the Mining Reward is allocated to proposals: Bitcoin News Trader Review 2018 » Full Scam Check Submitting proposals costs 5 dash. The rest of the budget „burns“ the Bitcoin news and thus lowers the inflation rate.

At Monero, all proposals are created and funded by the community. It is a donation model similar to the Kickstarter platform.

For Zcash, the Zcash Foundation Board issues a part of the so-called Founder Rewards for Proposals. A committee of five to six hand-picked people decides on the proposals and monthly detailed reports on the progress have to be submitted.

Analysis of the Bitcoin formula

In the application process, all three Bitcoin formula projects have similarities in that there is a preliminary stage to a proposal that separates the chaff from the serious wheat. Onlinebetrug comes to the conclusion that the Dash and Zcash proposals in particular are well documented. She also concludes that the Dash and Zcash teams are better known and more often funded. The team behind an idea seems as important to her as the idea itself.

The projects differ fundamentally when it comes to financing. Monero does not have a fixed budget and is financed by donations from the community, Dash has a fixed budget that is set out in the protocol itself, and Zcash receives the budget from the Zcash Foundation. Eghbal considers that the fixed budget at Dash could possibly lead to suboptimal ideas finding funding, simply because the money is available. With Monero, on the other hand, the community only invests in ideas it finds valuable. However, the crowdfunding mechanism also makes planning for the future difficult. Although Zcash has a fixed budget, this is distributed by a centralized foundation.

In the decision-making process, Eghbal Dash catches the eye because the master nodes use a fixed stake in Dash and thus have an economic interest in the success of the crypto currency. Nevertheless, it could happen that master nodes conspire and deliberately favour or disadvantage certain projects. With Zcash, on the other hand, the decision-making committee is hand-picked and based on human judgement of character. At Monero, she criticizes the overly open decision-making process, which can quickly turn into a „popularity contest“. Eghbal concludes that all decision-making processes have their weaknesses and that there may not be a perfect solution.

In project accountability, Eghbal Dash Watch highlights Dash Watch as a good example of clear success stories. At Zcash, she praised the frequent and detailed reports the Foundation demands. Monero seems to be a laggard, as accountability is least demanded here.

Analysis of past funding
Eghbal largely excluded Zcash from this analysis as the funding process is still relatively new and not yet sufficiently representative.

The Monero Core team’s funding proposals accounted for ten percent of the proposals, but received a third of the budget. At Dash, the core team’s work accounted for one-fifth of the proposals and was always funded. In contrast, only 80 percent of non-core proposals were able to achieve their funding.
While Monero mainly financed research, core work and conference trips, Dash spends about half of its budget on marketing.

In both Monero and Dash, there were some familiar faces whose proposals were mostly financed. Eghbal sees her presumption of a reputation effect confirmed. The median of the proposals at Mo

Bitcoin community

The opinion Echo: „Anti-Semites!“ – Roubini trolls the Bitcoin community

After the devastating criticism of Bitcoin & Co. by the Permabär Nouriel at the beginning of this week, the problems of the crypto exchange Bitfinex and the stable coin Tether came into the focus of the commentators. The opinion ECHO for the 42nd calendar week.

Here is the Bitcoin code review

Roubini’s anti-Bitcoin tirade before the US Senate continued on the economist’s Twitter account at the beginning of the week. The economist is using ever heavier guns to fire towards the crypto community like this https://www.geldplus.net/en/bitcoin-code-review/. The quintessence of his Bitcoin code review tweets: The Bitcoin community is a cesspool of blinded, coprophagous shitcoiners whose ultra-liberal tendencies are surpassed only by their anti-Semitic tendencies.

NYU resists Roubini with Bitcoin code scam

Roubini’s downright trumpeting Twitter troll has meanwhile reached a degree of review unprofessionality that even calls alumni of New York University (NYU), where Roubini teaches, to the fore. For example, Max Keiser, crypto-investor and alumnus of NYU, criticizes the Bitcoin code scam plan:

„It pains me to see @nouriel [Roubini] behave like a horse’s ass. I am now in contact with the NYU leadership to ask them if they can’t urge this embarrassing rage-aholic to reason. It damages the working morale of the students.“

Roubini’s tirades could also influence NYU’s support through alumni donations:

„Many NYU members have already made contact with Roubini and are trying to get him to shut up. He is known as a rage-aholic, egomaniac and windbag. The students complain. It becomes also for Alumni fund Raiser like me the topic ?

Of course, Dr. Doom also took the opportunity to comment on the current drama about Bitfinex and the Stable Coin Tether (USDT):

„Tether is the mother of all crypto scams and supports Bitcoin and all the other shitcoins by up to 80 percent. But the regulators, who started investigating Tether/Bitfniex months ago, are still „sleeping at the wheel“.

Experts agree, Tether is a massive fucking scam.

I figured it out based on common sense and the background of the people behind the exchange.

It didn’t help that Bitfinex was founded by a Ponzi scammer.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-10-12/this-texas-finance-professor-sifts-data-for-signs-of-rigged-markets …

This tweet is from the Roubini retweetet Bitfnix’ed series. Indeed, on 16 October, the economist spent his lunchtime sharing the tweets of @Bitfnix’ed, arguably the sharpest critic of the currently controversial Bitfinex crypto exchange.
