Hi,

ASNV6, no clue... but 32-bit ASN are already prepared, at least in
the registry world.


It was just a joke, since the AS is getting high up there
in the 2 byte range (2/3's of the available ones down I think) and
was implying that moving to 4 byte would be as fast/efficient/complete
as going to IPV6 (Not...)


That's actually something funny..
We'll probably run out of v4 addresses sooner than 2 byte ASN, however, 
globally it seems more pieces of the puzzle are in place for the latter 
"revolution".


But then again... IPv6 is a long run thing. Most people still don't 
understand how IPv4 works... :-)

RE: San Francisco Power Outage

:They claim in the video tour that they do not have any battery systems on
:the site.  They rely solely on the flywheels.

And, there's nothing wrong with that...

Bottom line, regardless of the colo outage, any network that suffered
downtime did so due to their own lack of diligence.  The crazy drunkard
headline seems to have been debunked, so this is nothing more than your
random run-of-the-mill outage.  The obvious has been stated and restated
throughout this thread.  This isn't fodder for nanog, let's move on...

Heh. I am moving about 500 boxes out of there by end of September. 
Anyone want a temporary job? :-) I could use the help.

moving out of there.
