I am Anjelo Fernando. I live in Auckland, New Zealand. I work with Netbridge on network infrastructure, and I am currently completing a networking qualification at Unitec.
This blog is where I keep notes from three parts of my life that do not overlap much but feel like they belong in the same place.
The Lab is for technical work. Networking projects, homelab builds, and whatever I am working on or breaking at the time. Right now that is mostly PlainSight.
The Field is for getting outside. Walks, hikes, and wherever I end up around Auckland and beyond. The name of this site came from wanting a record of the physical, offline parts of life alongside the technical ones.
The Grind is for training. Gym logs, program notes, and the slow process of actually improving at something over time.
The name Analog Array comes from two things: analog, because I wanted to track the physical and offline alongside the digital; and array, because it is a collection, not a thesis. No grand theme. Just somewhere to put things down before I forget them.
PlainSight is my current capstone project at Unitec, built in partnership with Netbridge. It pulls syslog from a FortiGate 60E, a Ruckus R650 WAP, and an FS-148F switch into a Wazuh SIEM backend running on Ubuntu via VMware ESXi. A Streamlit dashboard surfaces everything through the Wazuh REST API, and a local phi3:mini model running through Ollama reads the alerts and writes plain English summaries with MITRE ATT&CK tags. No data leaves the building. No API keys. No licensing fees.
The portfolio is at analogarray.org.
