MTIN becomes CLoudFlare Partner
This is a guest post written and contributed by CloudFlare. CloudFlare makes it easy for any site to be as fast and secure as the Internet giants.
CloudFlare, a web performance and security company, is excited to announce our partnership with MTIN Consulting If you haven’t heard about CloudFlare before, our value proposition is simple: we’ll make any website twice as fast and protect it from a broad range of web threats.
Today, hundreds of thousands of websites—ranging from individual blogs to e-commerce sites to the websites of Fortune 500 companies to national governments—use CloudFlare to make their sites faster and more secure. We power more than 65 billion monthly page views—more than Amazon, Wikipedia, Twitter, Zynga, AOL, Apple, Bing, eBay, PayPal and Instagram combined—and over 25% of the Internet’s population regularly passes through our network.
Faster web performance
CloudFlare is designed to take a great hosting platform like MTIN’s and make it even better.
We run 23 data centers strategically located around the world. When you sign up for CloudFlare, we begin routing your traffic to the nearest data center.
As your traffic passes through the data centers, we intelligently determine what parts of your website are static versus dynamic. The static portions are cached on our servers for a short period of time, typically less than 2 hours before we check to see if they’ve been updated. By automatically moving the static parts of your site closer to your visitors, the overall performance of your site improves significantly.
CloudFlare’s intelligent caching system also means you save bandwidth, which means saving money, and decreases the load on your servers, which means your web application will run faster and more efficiently than ever. On average, CloudFlare customers see a 60% decrease in bandwidth usage, and a 65% in total requests to their servers. The overall effect is that CloudFlare will typically cut the load time for pages on your site by 50% which means higher engagement and happier visitors.
Broad web security
Over the course of 2011, CloudFlare identified a 700% increase in the number of distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) we track on the Internet (see the chart below). As attacks like these increase, CloudFlare is stepping up to protect sites.
CloudFlare’s security protections offer a broad range of protections against attacks such as DDoS, hacking or spam submitted to a blog or comment form. What is powerful about our approach is that the system gets smarter the more sites that are part of the CloudFlare community. We analyze the traffic patterns of hundreds of millions of visitors in real time and adapt the security systems to ensure good traffic gets through and bad traffic is stopped.
In time, our goal is nothing short of making attacks against websites a relic of history. And, given our scale and the billions of different attacks we see and adapt to every year, we’re well on our way to achieving that for sites on the CloudFlare network.
Signing up
Any website can deploy CloudFlare, regardless of your underlying platform. By integrating closely with MTIN we make the process of setting up CloudFlare “1 click easy” through your existing MTIN dashboard. Just look for the CloudFlare icon, choose the domain you want to enable, and click the orange cloud. That’s it!
We’ve kept the price as low as possible and plans offered through MTIN are free. Moreover, we never charge you for bandwidth or storage, therefore saving you tons via reduced bandwidth costs.

CentOS 7 changes Apache
So Centos 7 makes some changes from the way we are used to doing thing. Many of the packages you are used to no longer start with the normal init.d scripts. Let’s take apache for example. Once installed via yum you have to issues the following commands:
To make sure the httpd service start automatically at the boot time, enter:systemctl enable httpd.service
The following command will disable the httpd service at the boot time:systemctl disable httpd.service
To Start httpd:systemctl start httpd.service
To verify that the httpd service is running, enter:is-active httpd.service

Router OS 6.18 released
From The ChangeLog
What's new in 6.18 (2014-Aug-01 10:47):
*) sstp - report TLS encryption as well;
*) safe mode - do not allow user with less permissions to disrupt active safe mode;
*) console - print command does not try to reuse item numbers assigned by
previous invocations of 'print' when doing 'print where' or 'print follow',
items are numbered consecutively starting from '0'.
*) console - fix compact export of some partially modified
configuration values;
*) api - use the same syntax for property values as is used in 'print detail'
output, with the exception of numbers, that are not shown with suffixes
(K/M/G/T or bitrate) and are not contracted or separated into digit groups,
and "yes"/"no" values that continue to be reported as "true"/"false".
*) console - show internal numbers in the form returned by 'find' (like *9A0F)
instead of "(unknown)" when configuration refers to
deleted items. This change also applies to API.
*) ipsec - fix addition of default policy template;
*) console - values of type 'nil' were returning 'nil' as result of most
operations. Now it compares less than all values except 'nil'
and 'nothing', and compares inequal to all values except 'nil'.
This was changed to make 'print where' and 'find where' more useful.
An example. Previously the following command
/ip route print where routing-mark!=nosuch
Would not print routes that had no value for 'routing-mark' set, because
(nil != "nosuch") was equal to nil. Now it evaluates to 'true', and this
command will also print all routes that have no 'routing-mark' value set.
*) l2tp - fixed problem on CCR where server responded with wrong source address;
*) console export - put qutes around item names that start with a digit;
*) sntp client - added support for dns lookup of ntp servers;
*) console - when exporting to file, use name ending in '.in_progress', and
rename when export finishes;
*) bridge setups sometimes could crash on CCR devices;
*) fixed port flapping in 1G mode on sfp-sfpplus1 on CRS226;
*) fixed SXT ac model losing it's interface if changing regulatory settings in "routerboard" menu
