 I started looking at the Raritan devices (which can be found really
 cheap on ebay) but I only see a Java client and no mention of
 installing a client on Linux.

I've used the star tech devices in the past.  Most modern systems have some 
sort of RDP or Java thing on the IPMI that mostly work.

I didn't see any mention of this Tony Hain paper:

tl;dr: ARIN predicted to run out of IP space to allocate in August this year.

Are you ready?

I've never used this but saw it mentioned on a mailing list and wished
we hadn't already purchased something else:
http://us.adder.com/products/adderlink-ipeps  It uses the VNC protocol.

We'd already purchased the SpiderDuo from Lantronix which is reliant

Fibre patches in the Downtown Chicago area

2013-04-23 Thread Christoph Blecker
Hello NANOG,
Wondering if anyone knows of a supplier/warehouse that might have LC/LC
single mode fibre patches (2meter or 6feet) in the Chicago area (60661)?
Here doing work in a remote office, and the patches shipped were too short.

Off-list replies appreciated!

Cheers,
Christoph

Here's a Geoff Houston report from 2005:
https://www.arin.net/participate/meetings/reports/ARIN_XVI/PDF/wednesday/huston_ipv4_roundtable.pdf

I point to page 8, and the prediction RIR Pool Exhaustion, 4 June
2013.

Those of us who paid attention are well prepared.

tl;dr: Real statistical models properly executed in 2005 were remarkably
   close to the reality 8 years later.

I have sadly witnessed a growing number of businesses with /24s moving
to colocation/aws networks and not giving up their unused network
space. I assume this will come into play soon. I have already read the
news of blackmarket sales of network allocations in Europe.

We have used a couple of the Adderlink devices and they work pretty
well. One model is kind of handy in that in addition to the IP/VNC
console, you can also connect a keyboard and monitor to it so you have a
local console as well. We have had success connecting the Adderlink to
standard KVM switches so we effectively have access to multiple consoles
through the one device.

Lantronix has some tools for enterprise management of the IP-KVMs.
Look at http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/management-platform/vslm.html

FYI: Most newish IPMI or IP-KVM have limited to full TLS/SSL and IPv6
support. Enable TLS/SSL to secure console access to your servers.

Personally? Yes! Customer side? No! Well expect for some.

But at least here in Germany some companies (!= ISPs) noticed this IPv6
thing and now are looking for people to support them. Problem is: They
don't want to pay for it (e.g. less or equal to the usual hourly rate
or any other kind of project).

Two weeks ago: 

We need someone for a two day IPv6 workshop in two weeks!

Yesterday: 

We need someone for a two day IPv6 workshop this week!
