Google Services Problems?

2014-09-23 Thread Jason Lester
Is anyone else seeing intermittently down or very slow access to Google
services like YouTube and Google Play Store?  We have two upstream
providers: one peers with XO and Level3, one with Qwest.  When our Google
traffic is preferring the route through XO, we see things like YouTube
videos not loading, Android devices not able to download updates, Google
Play Music not streaming, etc.  The main source network we are seeing it
from is 206.111.9.XXX which is owned by XO according to whois, but seems to
be sourcing Google traffic.  I assume they are caching or CDN servers of
some type for Google that are hosted at XO.  The problem started on Friday
as far as we can tell.

We had a similar problem a few weeks ago with Google Images searching.  The
search result page showed the same thumbnail (a car crash) for anything you
searched for.  It was again being sourced from the 206.111.9.XXX network.
Clicking on the image showed you the proper image, just the thumbnails were
wrong.  It cleared up in a couple of hours in that case, but the current
problem has been going on for a while.

Thanks,
Jason


Re: Looking for Netflow analysis package

2013-05-14 Thread Jason Lester
ManageEngine's NetFlow Analyzer will do most of that (not sure about AS
Path Analysis.)  It is priced per monitored interface, but is pretty
reasonable for what it does.  They have a 30-day demo available.  We use
their full OpManager+NetFlow suite to monitor several hundred devices with
thousands of interfaces.  We only license NetFlow for the interfaces that
connect to external providers.

E-mail me privately if you want to see the reports.

Re: Per Site QOS policy with Cisco IOS-XE

2013-05-09 Thread Jason Lester
We had a similar problem years ago with a frame-relay <---> IMA setup.  The
hub end was a multiplexed ATM circuit with PVC's to each site's frame-relay
circuit.  The IMA speed was equal to the aggregate speed of each site's
CIR.  It worked great until all the sites were bursting above CIR.  VoIP
call quality would go really bad when that happened (early mornings
mainly.)  QoS policies could not be maintained between the frame and ATM
sides.

Sprint (support contract on the CPE) and MCI (circuits) engineers finally
decided to run PPP over the native protocols on each end and then apply QoS
to the PPP sessions.  That fixed the problem.  I am not sure if something
like that is possible in your case or not though as I am not familiar with
MPLS.  I tried to find the config, but I no longer have it.  I remember it
used virtual templates, but don't remember the specifics.

CenturyLink Outage?

2013-05-07 Thread Jason Lester
Does anyone know what is going on with the nationwide CenturyLink outage?
 Their NOC recording says it is a BGP routing issue with their upstream
peers affecting Internet traffic and traffic between regions.  Our outside
connectivity with them has basically been down since about 4:00AM (EDT)
this morning.  The prefixes we were receiving from them were fluctuating
between a few hundred and a few thousand all morning.  We are getting the
full BGP table from them now (for about the last hour), but still not
seeing any incoming traffic.  Seems like a major issue since it has been
almost 9 hours now.

Thanks,
Jason
