Change SMBIOS UUID on AMI firmware PCs

PCs have SMBIOS data containing small amount of identifying information. One piece of information in this SMBIOS data is the universally unique identifier. Some PC and motherboard manufacturers fail to set this, often leaving the UUID set to 03000200-0400-0500-0006-000700080009.

If your system uses an AMI firmware (sometimes called AMIBIOS), you may be able to use AMI utilities to reset the UUID. Obtain AMIDEEFIx86.efi and an EFI shell executable, such as from inside m1ujt73usa.zip for the Lenovo ThinkStation P330 Tiny download center.

Once you have those two files, create USB drive with the FAT32 filesystem and the following structure:

\
  \AMIDEEFIx86.efi
  \efi

Cloudflare Tunnels/`cloudflared` on Mikrotik RouterOS 7

Why?

In their own words:

Cloudflare Tunnel provides you with a secure way to connect your resources to Cloudflare without a publicly routable IP address. With Tunnel, you do not send traffic to an external IP — instead, a lightweight daemon in your infrastructure (cloudflared) creates outbound-only connections to Cloudflare’s edge. Cloudflare Tunnel can connect HTTP web servers, SSH servers, remote desktops, and other protocols safely to Cloudflare. This way, your origins can serve traffic through Cloudflare without being vulnerable to attacks that bypass Cloudflare.

Beyond cyberattacks, this can be particularly useful if you're behind CGNAT, e.g. on cellular or satellite, and you want to make services on or behind your router available to the broader world.

How?
