  • ULA = Unique Local Address, non routable address scheme in IPv6 for use in local networks

    SLAAC = Stateless Address Autoconfiguration, a process in IPv6 that allows a host to assign itself an unique IP by listening to other traffic to determine the network ID and then creating the host ID

    ICMP = Internet Control Message Protocol, these a specific messages that allow for higher coordination and control rather that data exchange, like ping or dhcp.

    ISP = Internet Service Provider, the company that provides your internet acccess like Comcast, Google Fiber, AT&T, etc.











  • Ditto, I’ve one that will power a full size sata hdd (external power supply), use it for backups to magnetic, never had an issue. Got it years ago from a defunct computer shop, so no link but I Willi post the model later and put a ssd in and check TRIM.

    Edit: the enclosure I have is a ORICO 3588US3 if you use it with a ssd you don’t need the external power supply, I put a ssd in it and ‘sudo hdparm -I /dev/sdb’ reports ‘Data Set Management TRIM supported’
