Re: [AFMUG] -48 vDC Power Supply Recommendations?

2015-01-02 Thread Mike Hammett via Af
Was trying to have as little customization as I could get because it's going to 
a customer that paid $10k for a licensed link. Would a quick disconnect 
terminal pass code\insurance muster?

Why not just use the one from Baltic and crimp some quick disconnect terminals 
on the wires? 

Trango used to sell a desktop power supply like you describe, but they replaced 
it with this which is just an open frame power supply in a box:

It seems like what I'm looking for doesn't exist. I'm looking for something 
that looks like a laptop power supply like this 

http://www.balticnetworks.com/tycon-power-48v-2-5a-120w-desktop-power-supply.html
 

but with screw terminals for the DC. 

I'd have no problem chopping the end off of the above or using one of those 
open\DIN power supplies, but chopping off the AC cord at home or a tower site, 
but this is going at a customer's location. I had assumed the manufacturer was 
sending a power supply like what I wanted when I ordered, but that wasn't the 
case.

[AFMUG] SLAs\Escalation

2015-01-01 Thread Mike Hammett via Af
What sort of SLAs do you have with your transport and transit providers? 

If you have SLAs with any of your customers, how did you come about them? 

Could you elaborate on any response\repair provisions? 



How are you guys handling escalation for critical infrastructure or SLA 
customers? Right now my phone is on vibrate and I check it when convenient. I 
can't be looking at my phone every time a sales guy calls or I get tagged in a 
picture on FaceBook. Checking on a regular basis, though, I do get back to 
those things. I'd like to find a way to be alerted via the most obnoxious 
method when critical infrastructure or SLA customers are down. Maybe there's an 
app I can use to override system volume settings to just be annoying when a 
certain number calls, text arrives, etc.? 


Thanks.

Well�� 
� 
As you all probably are aware, PDMNet has been managing the AFMUG list for 
Chuck and we have been using Amazon to do it.� There were some bumps to get 
it off the ground as Amazon has VERY specific/strict methods that have to be 
adhered to in order to send email through their servers.� That has resulted 
in a few differences in the way the list emails look/act with certain clients, 
and MUCH debate has gone on about it on the list J �� 
� 
In early November, we used our test environment with Amazon to test how things 
would work if we went the �Amazon verified email� method, whereby each new 
subscriber to the list would first get prompted with an Amazon email 
verification request, and then the AFMUG verification email.� This method 
seems to work just fine (we actively used it like that internally for a week or 
so) and it handles all the backend �stuff� just like we want it to.)�� 
The email headers then work like they would in any other mail server. 
� 
We queried the AFMUG list and there was no resistance to us making the changes 
and adding Amazon verification, but we just got slammed with other projects and 
didn�t pull the trigger on the switchover.� Since November, all new 
subscribers to the list HAVE BEEN required to do the Amazon verification as 
part of the AFMUG signup. 
� 
We are now ready to pull the trigger on the changes to get everyone else Amazon 
verified so we can make the changes to the email headers, etc. 
� 
Here�s what will happen�. 
� 
All existing AFMUG subscribers that have not been Amazon verified (most of you) 
will get an email by the end of today from Amazon to verify your email 
address.� The verification emails are good for 24 hours only.� The email 
does NOT say anything about AFMUG unfortunately, and we can�t change it so 
just be looking for it, check SPAM folders, etc.� �Probably on Friday, we 
will turn on �normal headers�.�� If you have not been Amazon verified 
at that point, you will still get emails but if you send any emails to the list 
they will NOT go through. �We will monitor the changes closely� and make 
any adjustments that are needed along the way.

Re: [AFMUG] EPMP insanity!

2014-12-29 Thread Mike Hammett via Af
When did you last use it? I'm clicking around a backhaul I've got running 2.2 
and it seems awfully responsive. Loading each screen is damn near 
instantaneous. 

It doesn't require the reboot that UBNT requires when changing anything not 
involving the radio. I'm not sure what everyone's beef is.

I can't take it anymore, I'm going back to UBNT for non-FSK/450 stuff. I can no

better as the firmware matured but its not getting any better, Just loaded the 
latest firmware 2.3.3 and its still slower than a turtle going in the wrong 
direction. For crying out loud the old Tranzeo interface is faster than this! 
Chrome, and IE 11 it doesn't matter it literally takes me 30 minutes to config 
one of these radios. By the time you upgrade the firmware and try to upload a 
template to one. (never does want to take a backup config is always erroring 
out) I can't afford to be sitting at the bench all day fiddling with these 
radios. You can't even type text in the fields that already have characters in

these radios i always end up with obscenities coming out of my mouth and I even 
have a hole punched in a wall in the shop cause i got so frustrated with one a 
few weeks back. 



Maybe Bitlomat will come out with third party firmware for these and save us

The Interview. 

Exactly what you would expect from Rogan and Franco. 

Pineapple Express in North Korea. 



Instead of video killed the radio star I think it now is - streaming has killed 
the distribution company. 



Odd that my wife bought me a book for Christmas. Half way through it I watched 
the move on YouTube. 

The book is “Escape from Camp 14”. Biography of a kid that was born in a North 
Korean prison camp. He grew up and escaped. So far he is the only one they know 
about. 



I have read Victor Frankl, Anne Frank and others. 

Have seen “Night and Fog” multiple times. 



North Korea is worse in some ways.

Linksys, Netgear, Belkin, DLink all have paid support after 30 days. Dell has 
paid support. Apple has Applecare. HP has SmartFriend which seems to cover a 
wide variety of problems and non HP computers, maybe that's where I should send 
them:

The Interview. 

Exactly what you would expect from Rogan and Franco. 

Pineapple Express in North Korea. 



Instead of video killed the radio star I think it now is - streaming has killed 
the distribution company. 



Odd that my wife bought me a book for Christmas. Half way through it I watched 
the move on YouTube. 

The book is “Escape from Camp 14”. Biography of a kid that was born in a North 
Korean prison camp. He grew up and escaped. So far he is the only one they know 
about. 



I have read Victor Frankl, Anne Frank and others. 

Have seen “Night and Fog” multiple times. 



North Korea is worse in some ways.

I'm curious to see what the seamless channel change looks like in terms of 
hiccup across each side of an OSPF /30 between a pair of routers... How many 
milliseconds of weirdness, if you're logged into a router console on one end 
and pinging the other?

 Subject: [AFMUG] OT - PCI-E enterprise SSDs 
 
 So I've been impressed lately with the performance improvements to 
personal 
 computers and I/O intensive servers like web and mail servers by replacing 
HDDs with 
 SSDs. I'm convinced the emphasis on CPU and memory is often misplaced and 
the 
 key is disk read/write performance. I think part of this is our use of 
computers has 
 gone from computing oriented to data oriented. 
 Big, big data. The one exception perhaps being games, but is that CPU 
intensive or 
 GPU intensive? 
 
 So I've noticed there are enterprise SSD cards that go in a PCI-E slot 
like Intel S3700, 
 Huawei ES3000, Samsung SM1715. The performance numbers sound comparable 
to a 
 very expensive RAID array of SAS drives. It does raise the question, why 
are we 
 making SSDs look like HDDs including form factor and electrical interface, 
other than 
 for the hot swap capability of SATA/SAS? 
 
 Has anyone used these things? Are they automatically recognized by 
Windows and 
 Linux as disk drives? Do you need to load special drives and jump through 
special 
 hoops? Is there any point trying to do RAID with these, and can that even 
be done?

The only reason I say it's big is because sometimes it's hard to use one

else about the phone is big...it's actually very slim when in my pocket etc. 


We use ATT because they have the best coverage and speeds in NW CO.

Depending on scale, if you can afford a few cross connects and the exchange 
port, I'd almost recommend peering with HE (along with the others on the 
exchange) and saving your dollars to purchase something nicer. The exchange 
will take care of your Akamai, FaceBook, Google, NetFlix, Microsoft, HE, etc. 
HE and Cogent have big and growing networks, but they are also the easiest of 
the big operators to peer with. You'll get customer routes (which is growing), 
which may chop out a lot of your traffic.

Hit up your particular carrier's enthusiast sites and see if anyone has combed 
through the FCC filings (to save yourself the time). S4GRU (for Sprint) goes 
through the big hitters and reports on what bands they can use (useful for 
roaming or accessing new networks), power levels, etc. 

The Nexus 6 on Sprint has great power across all bands you could want (Sprint's 
as well as the rural guys they're partnering with).

Working with some of them in that area gives me intimate knowledge that they 
don't know what they're doing. Three days of no action to a fiber cut bringing 
a whole department down? Ignoring a new Dragonwave link being down for thus far 
64 days. It was down for about that long earlier this summer too. I could go

Surely their devices don't work perfectly or someone preconfigures something 
wrong. Surely there are errors that need to be dealt with. 

Where I'm going with this is that DSL and cable use DOCSIS and TR-069. Those 
are out-of-band management and configuration systems. Why don't we have more of 
that? From there I just moved up the chain. How are the next layer of devices 
configured and managed?

Re: [AFMUG] ePMP proxy

2014-12-18 Thread Mike Hammett via Af
As the Canopy proxy requires both the AP and the CPE being Canopy. MT supports 
anything using MAC telnet on that layer 2 segment. That would be other APs or 
CPE or routers or whatever else your box is configured as. Canopy is restricted 
to that AP and its CPE. 

I believe I've seen people dig up the Linux package MT uses for this feature 
for including it in other people's products. Just add mac telnet to ePMP?

But I don’t think he’s talking how a skilled person could MacGyver it, but

Like one of many things that pisses me off about my $10K Purewave basestation 
is you can see a list of CPE MAC addresses by subscriber name, but if you want 
to see any stats or change the config for that subscriber, you have to find him 
by his MAC address, not by name. The expensive piece of crap equipment has all 
the information to make your life easy, but no, it acts like a glorified MIB 
browser. They even rolled out an NMS that I assumed would add this level of 
intelligence, but no. 

So yes in a pinch you could probably get there through some MAC telnet tricks. 
But with the AP proxy feature, it’s one click and boom. If you don’t find it 
useful, fine. Most of us use it multiple times every day. It’s a cool feature.

The people traditionally running a bridged network are not the types that are 
understanding of any of the things you just mentioned. Not sure I'd accept 
VLANs as being sufficient, but the other stuff would be an upgrade. 

The overall industry? Which industry is this, Mark? The carriers with 10 GigE 
or 100 GigE between locations where extra traffic isn't even noticed or the 
WISP industry with 4 meg access points?

MEF, PBB, PBB-TE, MPLS, VLAN, G.8032, ERPS, VLAN, etc. are all valid 
alternatives to a L3 routed network. All of these are tools in the toolbox. 

If you insist that the only proper tool is a hammer that's your choice - but I

This is where the majority of large carriers are going: 

http://metroethernetforum.org/carrier-ethernet/carrier-ethernet-services 

If you are buying (or selling) services to any of the larger carriers 
you are likely seeing MEF standards in use - Ethernet Virtual 
Connections, NNI and UNI interfaces. 

There are a lot of really nice features in MEF that allow you to sell 
protocol independent Ethernet across your network or across multiple 
networks. Something like a point to point where Time Warner is one end 
and your customer is on the other end. Or a PMP type of arrangement 
where 2 customers are on Comcast, 3 are on ATT, and 4 are your wireless 
customers. To the customer it just appears as if the 9 sites are 
connected via an Ethernet switch and you don't care in the least what 
addressing or protocols they run. 

If you are selling to any of the cell carriers they expect MEF services 
and specifically Y.1731 performance monitoring. This allows you and 
your customers to prove that you are actually providing the bandwidth, 
latency, jitter, and uptime. 

MEF adds a great deal of monitoring and troubleshooting capability to 
the network. It allows you to monitor end to end and within your own 
network in order to identify both to you and your partners where a 
problem exists and who is responsible for it.

In my experience MEF related products are very popular with oldschool PSTN 
operators and big cellular carrier, less so with ISPs that do 100% IP. You can 
sell an Ethernet tunnel over MPLS just as well.

I had something equally ridiculous before. I felt like a fool when Cambium

We got a PCN in the next county from us for ATT that included ALL of the 6, 11

have signs saying FEMA. Yea, right “FEMA” nudge-nudge wink-wink. 

For fun I was trying to look up what is actually licensed there. Can anyone get

Lots of folks have connected a relay to an ethernet port to loop it back. When 
the relay is open, the connection goes away. 

I am looking for a way to do some centralized polling of ports like that. I 
don’t want to have to build some kind of small ardueno board and burn an IP for 
each one. But I can’t think of a way around using an IP unless the device, such 
as a managed switch can do an snmp trap for each port. 

Maybe it will become a product if it doesn’t exist. Telemetry on a stick. Two 
terminals for a contact closure. POE powering. Pollable and trap sending. 
Hopefully something like this already exists?

No worries – as you said – it’s an FCC requirement that was initially setup in 
1971 when MCI and ATT were fighting for long-haul spectrum. Every single 
proposal ended up in a major battle at the FCC and they decided to get out of 
the middle of these arguments and force the applicants to work together. 

These days, we get very few responses from individual licensees and generally 
only receive an occasional issue from other coordinators. But, I can tell you 
that we send hundreds of complaints per month on behalf of the clients we 
protect. 

Most coordinators now prefer email delivery – in fact, we are looking to 
eliminate mail delivery altogether. So, if you are receiving snail mail from 
us, let me know and we’ll get it changed to email.

The closest I've ever been to SLC is either in a plane on the way to Vegas or 
maybe in Steamboat Springs, CO. However, I'd imagine the worst thing that could

So looks like this may be a reason not to use UBNT stuff for our backup links. 
Looks like the highest I can set the MTU is 1515 on a couple units and 1524 on 
another. Neither capable of 1528 or more. 


I'll have to find some brand new hardware and see if it can go higher. 


How big of a performance hit are we talking here? Potentially requiring double

being a pretty big problem.

To my understanding, it works like this: 

Say you take an IP packet coming into ether1, and it’s full MTU; 1500 bytes. 

Now, you want to bridge ether1 to an EoIP tunnel. EoI is GRE, and there’s a 28 
byte overhead for the GRE encapsulation. Now you have a 1528 byte packet. 

Unless every device between that router and the EoIP endpoint has layer2 MTUs 
of at least 1528 bytes, you’re going to transmit two packets to move that one 
original packet. One packet will have something like 1472 bytes of the original 
packet, plus GRE overhead for 1500, and one will have the remaining 28 bytes of 
the original packet, plus 28 GRE overhead, so, something like 56 bytes. 

This introduces the obvious slowdowns, as well as not so obvious ones, like 
maybe you have a device in the middle that’s not so good at PPS. Or that queues 
up small packets into one big air frame, and therefore you’re waiting for 
reassembly on the far end. 

Now, if you’re going from a 1500 byte LAN across a 9000 byte fiber connection, 
you’ll not notice this. If you’re going to a satellite office behind DSL with 
PPPoE, or a cable modem, or whatever, you’re going to notice.

It could be lower end hardware, though I don't know how the costs of design and

Smaller processors use less power, so smaller power supply? I'm no engineer, so 
I can't tell you how much this would or would not change the price. 

Something that only does 10 MHz wide? 

I don't know their cost to manufacture, so I don't know how low they can go 
with the existing hardware and still make money. 



On the license front, I think people don't like the Cambium license system 
because the base unit is too slow and there are too many units. I think Gino's 
got something with a $1k 200 meg unit. Would be great for (business) customer

.AC is an upgrade to .N. Cambium has the choice to use it or not. Others do. 
epmp competes with 450 right now but helps to keep customers and applications 
where 450 does not meet the price point.

An .AC ePMP would be incredible - but the issue is whether Cambium would be 
fearful of it competing too much with the 450. What does a company do when 
it has 2 products that are too good, and the cheaper one starts to outshine 
the more expensive one in the most often used benchmark? (mbps - even .AC 
ePMP is unlikely to beat 450 in scalability / latency / etc).

I can't tell you how much this would or would not change the price. 

Something that only does 10 MHz wide? 

I don't know their cost to manufacture, so I don't know how low they can go

On the license front, I think people don't like the Cambium license system 
because the base unit is too slow and there are too many units. I think Gino's 
got something with a $1k 200 meg unit. Would be great for (business) customer 
installs. Maybe just one license to go from Lite to Full? Two things to keep

Could they increase the QAM on the current AF24 to match that of the AF5 and at 
least do 1 gigabit FDX on the current shipping hardware? Not sure how 
increasing QAM levels work in FPGA land.

The AF5 is too much money for a backhaul in an already overused frequency I 
think. 


Besides, I have a link with the RM5AC-lites using the original rocket dish 5G30 
and getting a consistent 300Mbps for a mere $500. Put two of those links into 
an aggregate and get basically the same thing at half the price. My latency is 
1-2ms on a 3 mile link. I do have them shielded though. Without the shielding I 
was lucky if I got 150Mb.

I don’t disagree, but it presents some marketing and tech support issues 
dealing with customers. 

If 4K streaming requires 25M as Netflix says, that’s around 15 times what SD 
requires and 6 times what HD (720p) requires. I don’t think customers think of 
it that way, and they certainly don’t want to pay 6 or 15 times as much, more 
like 1.5X or 2X if anything. 

Add this to the trend of having 2, 3, 5 or more streams going at once and in 
their head it’s a binary thing, can I stream on your service or can’t I? As 
someone posted the other day, 6M does not mean 6M per device. 

I already get a fair amount of calls from people either watching Netflix while 
others in the house are watching Youtube, or they are watching streams on their 
Apple TV or via Amazon or Hulu that take more bandwidth than Netflix. In some 
cases I think those services are optimized for download and watch later rather 
than live streaming. 

You’d think people would observe Netflix works but Vudu doesn’t, and blame it 
on the streaming service. But everything these days is “my Internet is slow”. I 
had someone yesterday who had managed to both turn off WiFi on their router and 
unplug the Internet cable, but the reported problem was “my Internet is slow”. 

Add in the binary choice “can I stream or can’t I”, and I think we need some 
really good talking points and phone support scripts to explain to people why 
they need to upgrade to a higher more expensive plan, rather than saying I used 
to be able to stream Netflix SD, now I can’t stream 4K, you need to send 
someone out to fix my Internet connection, it doesn’t work like it used to, I’m 
not getting what I’m paying for. 

As far as pricing, my rule of thumb is price goes up as the square root of 
bandwidth, so 2X speed is around 1.4X price. But that would make 15X speed 
around 4X price, which I think is fair, but customers will think is outrageous. 
From their perspective, 4K is incrementally better looking than SD, plus 
everyone knows additional bandwidth costs ISPs next to nothing. 

This is gonna take some slick marketing.
