CenturyLink and Bell
It seems like there's a large outage going on with CenturyLink and Bell Canada. The CenturyLink outage seems to be US wide and seems to have been going on for a half day. Anyone know what's going on?

Wholesale DSL implementation in Canada
We're looking at implementing a DSL private network in various provinces in Canada. There seems to be two main ways to do this: build the network yourself by creating relationships with the local DSL providers (Bell, Telus, MTS, etc) ; or build the network using a third-party that already has a DSL infrastructure in place. The third-party DSL infrastructure is a sure thing, since they've been doing it for a while. However, we're looking at a large number of locations so the cost of implementing the DSL internally seems to be more compelling. Not having implemented a DSL infrastructure before, I'm wondering if anyone on NANOG has any advice on this? What technical or political issues might we run into? What is the best choice of hardware? (Juniper or Cisco)? Feel free to contact me off-list if you'd prefer. James
Re: Is Cisco equpiment de facto for you?
All the places I've worked in the past decade have been all Cisco shops for routing and switching, with a lot of Cisco use for security too (firewalls and IDS). Same with my current position, but we're switching to Juniper for all those product categories. Same or better performance, but 10-20% less cost. Additionally, I find the Juniper command line has more features that make operating and monitoring much more efficient. Also, JunOS has only one development train which means that the commands I use work on every single Juniper platform. It always bugs me when I’m trying to setup QOS across a network with different Cisco platforms (CatOS, ASA, different versions of IOS) and each platform has a completely different way of doing it. F5 all the way for content management. TippingPoint for IPS. On Mon, Jan 10, 2011 at 10:31 AM, Brandon Kim wrote: > > Hello gents: > > I wanted to put this out there for all of you.

Their data survives in Santa Clara county, their city offices survive but there is considerable damage to infrastructure and structures in their jurisdiction. But the communications is cut off between them and their data and time to repair is unknown. The city is now without email service But fortunately the data is also replicated in another data center nowhere near the quake, so once they pull out the mobile emergency operations center and aim the VSAT dish, they're back online with everything as it was moments before the quake hit... far superior to what formerly happened when the power or phone lines were down at their own facility, never mind what would have happened if their own facility with its infrequent backups to unreliable tape were destroyed.

Advice regarding Cisco/Juniper/HP
I'm looking for a little insight regarding an infrastructure purchase my company is considering. We are a carrier, and we're in the process of building a DR site. Our existing production site is all Cisco equipment with a little Juniper thrown into the mix. I'd like to either get the same Cisco equipment for the DR, or the equivalent Juniper equipment. We have skill sets for both Cisco and Juniper, so neither would be a problem to manage. A business issue has come up since we have a large number of HP servers for Unix and Wintel. With HP's recent acquisition of 3Com they are pressing hard to quote on the networking hardware as well, going as far as offering prices that are way below the equivalent Cisco and Juniper models. In addition they're saying they'll cut us deals on the HP servers for the DR site to help with the decision to go for HP Networking. Obviously to the people writing the cheques this carries a lot of weight. >From a technical point of view, I have never worked in a shop that used HP or 3Com for the infrastructure. Dot-com's, telco's, bank's, hosting companies...I haven't seen any of them using 3com or HP. Additionally, I'm not fond of having to deal with a third set of equipment. I'm not exactly comfortable going with HP, but I'd like some data to help resolve the debate. So my questions to the NANOG community are: Would you recommend HP over Cisco or Juniper? How is HP's functionality and performance compared to Cisco or Juniper? Does anyone have any HP networking experiences they can share, good or bad?
Re: Amazon diagnosis
It's always interesting (in a sad way) when a programmer or DBA comes to me with a basic networking or Unix question that any CCNA or RedHat candidate could answer. Then I get a very safe feeling about my job security when they start asking me if I could look at their code. This has happened too many times in my career. People seem to equate broad knowledge to mean you're a jack-of-all-trades-and-master-of-none.

It surprised me because I, perhaps naively, assumed IT workers in general have a rather broad knowledge because in general they're interested in many aspects of IT, try to find out as much as possible and if they do not know something they make an effort learning it. Also considering many (practical) things just aren't taught in university, which is to be expected since the idea is to develop an academic way of thinking. Maybe this "hacker" mentality is less prevalent than I, naively, assumed. So I believe it's just really hard to find someone who is smart and who understands all or most of the aspects of IT, i.e. servers, databases, file systems, load balancers, networks etc. And it's easier and cheaper in the short term to just open a can of and hope for the best.
