For the RIS, we use dot, see:

 
http://www.ris.ripe.net/cgi-bin/risas.cgi?as=&action=Search&startDay=20040123&startHour=00&startMin=00&startSec=00&endDay=20040123&endHour=14&endMin=7&endSec=35&rrcb=all&peer=all&type=U&outype=plot&sortby=stime&arrow=east&rank=100&plotsize=A4&.cgifields=type

for an example, or select your own AS and graphical output in

 http://www.ris.ripe.net/cgi-bin/risas.cgi

It is based on dot, plus about 2 pages of perl to pull the data from a DB.
The nice thing about dot is that it does most of the work for you,
including merging common parts of the paths and minimizing the number of
crossing lines.

2003-11-19 Thread Henk Uijterwaal (RIPE-NCC)


Dear All,

Please ignore my mail of 12:40 today.

As half a dozen people have asked me by now, no this was not intended for
the full list, just for one of the posters, and I should have paid more
attention to what my mail program said it was going to do, rather than
assume that it'd do what I though it should do.

Sorry.

FWIW, I still do as it is faster than google.  I bet that that there are
more people like me.

Also, some browsers add ".com" if your URL doesn't end in ".something".
Others cycle through a list of possibilities, but there ".com" is always
the first on the list.

Starting from the routing table is indeed the best approach.  We recently
studied this problem and found that an approach based on whois queries to
an IRR only returns the correct result in ~80% of the cases, whereas using
routing tables returns the correct result in ~99% of the cases. See:

http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-46/presentations/ripe46-tt-as-traceroutes.pdf

for more details. We're expanding the software used for this study into a
public service right now and hope to announce this to the public shortly.

RIPE is a neutral and independent organization, so any of its working
groups are by definition also neutral and independent.

Easier than what?  To start a WG in RIPE, all that is required is one
email to the organization to ask for a room for a BoF.

Define active.  RIPE EOF has been meeting 3 times a year for at least the
last 6 years, with a room full of people showing up for every meeting.

Meetings are usually organized on the Monday/Tuesday of the RIPE meetings.
Over the last years, focus shifted from technical presentations to
advanced tutorials, though there are plans to reverse that.  Next session
will be May 12-13 in Barcelona, Spain.

Re: TTM use in North America

2003-01-21 Thread Henk Uijterwaal (RIPE-NCC)

Josh, others,

> I am interested in hearing how/if TTM (Test Traffic Measurements) is
> currently being used in North American networks.

At the moment, there are 8 sites participating in the measurements and a
9th ordered its test-box this morning.  The 8 boxes are located in Palo
Alto, Denver (2), Chicago, Fermilab (near Chicago), Austin, Washington DC
and Ann Arbor.  The 9th box will be installed in the Bay area as well.

Besides that, 3 big ISP's have shown interest in deploying boxes for 2
different projects, this would involve something between 5 and 15 boxes
all over the US.

> Practical experiences, gotcha's,

The biggest problem so-far was the installation of the GPS antenna.  In
order for GPS to work, it requires a view of the sky, preferably from the
outside of the building.  That is not always possible in the US, with its
buildings where windows cannot open and PoP's are frequently located in
the basements of buildings.

This problem has now been solved. We now support CDMA based clocks units
that use the carrier signal from CDMA based cell-phones.  These units work
inside buildings, everywhere where a cell-phone works.  Geographic
coverage of the USA is about 99%.  Installation costs of these units are
0.

> value proposition, support, etc.. would be of interest.

We recently did a user survey of TTM and our customers rated both value
for money and support as excellent.
