Best networks with international presence..
I am looking for opinions of what US carriers have the best connectivity with the international players such as teleglobe, etc. Mainly, we are trying to determine if there is any way for us to get less latency from teleglobe's customers to our network (we currently see something like 1100 ms in teleglobe's london POP in traceroutes from our customers to our network). thanks for any opinions/advice. -Drew

You sure the cpu on the teleglobe router in the path isn't just pegged? If the rtt for the whole path is 400ms but one hop in the middles shows 1100ms you're probably measuring the performance of the scheduler in the OS the router is running not rtt to and from that router, packets going through it rather than to it likely take a different path through the box. Of course if the customer's rtt is 1100+ ms then sure there's probably serious congestion on one of those links. thanks for any opinions/advice. -Drew joelja

Or the return path from that router is asymmetric, and involves a few congested hops into space and back. Teleglobe has customers in many parts of the world where such things are not so unusual. Joe
Clueful verizon Email Admin needed
Apologies for spamming the list with this, but we've been getting the runaround from Verizon for the last week and really need to find an engineer to work with. We've been recieving reports both from out customers and Verizon customers that email between Voicenet.com and Verizon.net is not passing through, either to us from from, or from us to them. The number on puck.nether.net would lead me nowhere without lying, which would likely be counter productive. Is anyone, or does anybody know anyone at Verizon we could work with to get this resolved? Thanks, Wayne Hill
Anyone in or near Brentford, Middlesex, UK?
That could lend me a Cisco 256MB (or larger) CF flash card for a SUP720 for a week? In desperate need of one for a migration. If you can help, please hit me up offlist. Now back to regularly-scheduled North American network discussions... Thank You, Mike Lyon

RE: Microsoft Corporate Postmaster Contact?
Ken, This may not be much of a help, but can be a good resource for data when dealing with mail issues regarding MS. https://postmaster.live.com/snds/index.aspx Of course, you need a Valid MSN passport for registration. . . . . sigh. . . .

Re: Microsoft Corporate Postmaster Contact?
I don't think it should ever be acceptable to have to 'sign up' to report a security/network problem.

It's a feedback loop sort of thing, a la scomp (and not at all relevant to the original posters question, I don't think, but without more information, who can say?).

Apples and oranges -- this isn't signing up to report a security issue. SNDS is Microsoft provindg you data regarding what they can see about your IPs sending mail to Microsoft's networks. It certainly appears to be optional. If you are an ISP or somebody else sending any sort of significant amount of mail, it can be very useful. I've found it quite helpful. In theory, the point of registration is to track which data is given to whom, to prevent abuse. When/if you choose to apply, somebody at a published network administrator address will be sent an email requesting permission to give the registered user access to the data.

It probably would NOT help wrt issues with Microsoft corporate email. And not sending mail *TO* msn .. the guy is apparently having issues receiving mail from there and wants a contact to troubleshoot stuff at their end. In short, not your typical deliverability question. -srs
