Cisco NCS5501 as a P Router
We're at the growing point where we need a dedicated P router for a core device. We are taking a serious look at the NCS5501. Is there anyone else using a NCS5501 as P Router or just general feedback on the NCS5501 if you are using it? The big downside is it's only has a single processor I Can't justify a ASR9K or NCS5500 Chassis yet.

RE: Cisco NCS5501 as a P Router
Ι would be interested to use NCS5501 as a core or aggregation P router to aggregate smaller PE routers. Its low cost (compared to ASR9K) and the small features that one can need in order to run a P router it makes the platform attractive. I would like to hear other use case (eg. Internet peering routers) Best Regards, Michalis Bersimis -Original Message- From: NANOG [mailto:nanog-boun...@nanog.org] On Behalf Of Erik Sundberg Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2017 4:22 PM To: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Cisco NCS5501 as a P Router **This message triggered one or more security rules.

Particularly BGP free core and Internet-in-VRF. Single control-plane does not seem problematic, usually design should allow any single core node to be taken out of service without customer impact. Please talk to your account team about roadmap, what features are coming in which release in next 3 years. And ask them what are their plans with this IP http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/corporate-strategy-office/acquisitions/leaba.html -- ++ytti
FloCon 2018 [Was: Re: vFlow :: IPFIX, sFlow and Netflow collector]

As a two-decades-or-so lurker on this list (since back when I was a wee thing at ATHY/NYSERNet), I’m going to finally break out of lurk mode to thank Avi for his mention of FloCon, and take advantage of this opportunity to tell you all about a conference that might be of interest. For those who aren’t familiar with it, FloCon is an annual conference organized by CERT, historically focused on network flow and flow data analysis, and particularly its use to support security. (I should note we are *not* US-CERT—we’re the CERT Division of the Software Engineering Institute, operated by Carnegie Mellon University.) I said “historically focused on network flow” above because one of the changes for 2018 is that we’re expanding the scope of FloCon. This is in response to the trend in the types of submissions we’re receiving for the conference, and in the types of work we at CERT see our sponsors (and the rest of the world) interested in. The new scope for FloCon is data analysis in support of security operations—so, all types of data now, not just flow data or network data. We still anticipate that network data analysis will be a significant part of FloCon because of its central place in security operations, but we’re hopeful that the expanded scope will allow participants to share new and exciting ways of fusing all sorts of data. (Network flow? Pcap? Passive DNS? Building access data? Incident report contents? Biometric data? Malware hashes? Bring it, whatever it is.) We tend to get a good mix of security practitioners, tool builders, and researchers each year. I would love to see more people from the ops world join us, since I think the best advances in the state of the practice will come from bringing the brains of all of these groups together. More information about the conference, including the call for participation, can be found here: https://resources.sei.cmu.edu/news-events/events/flocon/ As the chair for FloCon 2018, I’d be happy to take any questions off-list about the conference.

Dotster/domain.com contact
I'm looking for a technical contact at dotster/domain.com to address an ongoing issue with their registrar service's lack of compliance with a very clear ICANN policy. Email me off-list.
