Powershell: NSX-V Edge Service Gateway (ESG) Firewall Rules Output



Summary:
Basically had a script to output Distributed Firewall, but not individual ESG based firewall rules.  Turns out, I could re-use some of what I had made for DFW, but had to rewrite ALOT surprisingly.  So here is an ESG based version.  The script was written and run using Powershell 7 Core, latest PowerCLI and PowerNSX.

It might work on other revisions, but I'm too lazy to back test.  You can export to CSV as well.

Misc: Navien NPE-240A Navilink App missing scheduling function

Image
NPE-240A Summary: Just had a new tankless water heater installed in my house to replace a failing 22 year-old 50 gallon tank.  Couldn't be happier w/ my new tankless, but was dealing with weirdness on the Navilink app to control/view my new Navien .  The app's scheduling function (for the recirculation pump) was missing. Solution: NR-20DU Disconnect NR-20DU remote controller. (if you want to schedule via App) *DIP Switches need to be set properly as well. In my case, w/ a bridge valve in my furthest faucet, is considered "External Recirculation". Check w/ your plumber for proper settings, they set mine properly. If you are in the Atlanta area, I highly recommend Plumbing Express LLC . Ask for Jonathan DeWeese. For reference only, these were set correctly by my plumber for my setup. DIP Switch 1 Off, 2 On.  (Internal Recirculation would be the opposite) Parameter 18 set to On (This is to enable Navilink ) These settings are detailed out in t...

iOS: Sleep Focus activating on wrong time zone

Image
Time is Relative Summary: For some strange reason, my sleep focus, was activating based upon my home timezone of EST while traveling to Japan and Australia.  My phone's timezone was correct as was my apple watch that is set to mirror my iPhone. [ Update:   While resolution below may help in some situations, I found my issue to be that I left a device (macbook pro) logged in and running in my home timezone while in Australia. It seems that there is no 'primary' controller for initializing focus modes.  It's basically whatever device sends the "It's focus time" message.  Which now explains why I has having such issues. So Apple needs to fix this by defining a primary device (should be my iPhone/Apple Watch IMYHO) so weird people like me who have multiple devices can get proper sleep outside my home timezone. ] Workaround/Resolution: Check if you have another other Apple device logged in with your Apple ID in your home location.  Chances are, if you do, that ...

Misc: Installed some new tail lights from Hansshow on my Tesla Model 3

Image
Summary: As a little treat for myself, I bought some real cool aftermarket tail lights from Hansshow as you can see from the video above.  Use coupon code "SARHANSSHOW" for 15% off.  I don't get a cut of any kind, but I like sharing.  Anyway, here is a wiring diagram I drew up to show how everything logically needs to be wired.   If you want to support me and posts like this, you can order Tesla products via my referral link .  Honestly, their referral program these days is kinda lame in my opinion, but hey, you get something and I get something out of it. Notes: For euro spec may be slightly different and 2021 models would use a 4-pin Adapter instead of a 3-pin adapter which is US specific and applies for 2020 models and older.  Basically, if you have a red turn signal, chances are that you have a 3-pin setup. The only downside to these lights in older models is that the turn signal indicators light up in addition to a separate red brake light on the...
