Depends on the exchange.  Some allow it, some don’t.  Some don’t have a
policy.

Some providers offer it, some don’t.

I could be wrong.  This is what was reported by a few back in 1997.  If
not true, so be it.  I have no further details from something that
occurred 17 years ago.

On the RSP720-10GE at least, it seems that IPv4 and MPLS are not shared.

 Subject: Getting pretty close to default IPv4 route maximum for
 6500/7600routers.

 Hi all,

 I am wondering if maybe we should make some kind of concerted effort
 to remind folks about the IPv4 routing table inching closer and
 closer to the 512K route mark.

 We are at about 94/95% right now of 512K.

 For most of us, the 512K route mark is arbitrary but for a lot of
 folks who may still be running 6500/7600 or other routers which are
 by default configured to crash and burn after 512K routes; it may be
 a valuable public service.

 Even if you don't have this scenario in your network today; chances
 are you connect to someone who connects to someone who connects to
 someone
 (etc...) that does.

 In case anyone wants to check on a 6500, you can run:  show platform
 hardware capacity pfc and then look under L3 Forwarding Resources.

 Just something to think about before it becomes a story the
 community talks about for the next decade.

[NANOG-announce] New NANOG website launching tomorrow evening - Maintenance Notice

2013-04-29 Thread Randy Epstein
Greetings NANOG community,

We have great news to report!  The redeveloped NANOG website is now ready to
go live.

Thanks to the input from the community, as well as all the volunteers that
assisted from concept to completion and every step in between.

One of the primary goals of the redesign was to present a clean, yet
functional and up to date website, improving delivery of information to
NANOG members and sponsors, as
well as providing attraction to potential new members and sponsors.  We feel
we have more than achieved this goal and hope the community feels the same.

The plan is to launch the new website on Tuesday, April 30th at 10 PM
PDT/Wednesday, May 1st at 1 AM EDT.  During this time you may experience a
brief disruption of service.

If you have any questions regarding this maintenance, please feel free to
contact me.  If you experience any issues once the new website is launched,
you may always email webmas...@nanog.org.

Thank you,

Randy Epstein
On behalf of the Website Redesign Team

AS30424 was assigned to "Super Networks" of Columbia, MD on March 18,
2008.  It's possible they didn't pay their ARIN invoice, and they also
didn't renew their domain "supernetworks.net", as that has lapsed as well.

[NANOG-announce] Seeking NANOG Communications Committee candidates for upcoming elections and my farewell

2012-10-11 Thread Randy Epstein
Greetings NANOG friends and colleagues!

This month, elections will take place at NANOG 56 in Dallas, TX.  There are
currently two open positions available on the NANOG Communications Committee
for the upcoming 
term.

Some brief information about the Committee and what we are seeking:

The Communications Committee will consist of at least three members selected
by the Board of Directors. Members of the Communications Committee may not
serve concurrently 
on the Board of Directors. The chairperson of the Communications Committee
will serve ex officio in a non-voting role on the Board of Directors, in
order to facilitate
communication between the two groups. One of the primary functions of
Communications Committee is the maintenance of a community mailing list (the
NANOG operators list).
The Communications Committee will be responsible for the administration and
minimal moderation of the list.

The Board of Directors will select the new Communications Committee members
after the election in October. Two positions are to be filled.

The main NANOG mailing list serves an important role in the community by
providing a day-to-day forum for network operators. Participating as a
member of the 
Communications Committee gives you the opportunity to make a noticeable
contribution.

All candidates will be asked to complete a questionnaire about their
qualifications, and to submit a Declaration of Candidacy (DoC), which is
available at 
https://www.nanog.org/governance/elections/2012elections/2012_Declaration_of
_Candidacy.docx.

Communications Committee Member Responsibilities may be viewed at
http://www.nanog.org/governance/CC_Member.pdf.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to me
directly as well.

Personally, I will not be able to run again as I have now served two terms
(four years) on the Committee and will be termed out.  It has been a
pleasure serving the
members of NANOG and the Board of Directors during these last four years,
from when I first started on the Mailing List Committee and watched over the
transformation into
what is now the Communications Committee.

I'd like to thank the NANOG community for giving me this opportunity as it
has certainly been an enjoyable experience.  I hope to serve the community
again in the future.

Regards,

Randy Epstein
Chair, NANOG Communications Committee

NANOG Website Redesign Project

2012-08-31 Thread Randy Epstein
Greetings NANOG community,

NANOG is in the process of completely redeveloping its website
(http://www.nanog.org) and is looking for feedback from the community and
NANOG members.

One of the primary goals of the redesign is to present a clean, yet
functional and up to date website, improving delivery of information to
NANOG members and sponsors, as
well as providing attraction to potential new members and sponsors.
Additionally, a mobile-compatible version of the website with access to the
same up to date
information that the full website offers is another goal of ours.

We have a long list of features that have been discussed within the various
Committee and Board meetings.  We however, want to make sure we hear more
from the community,
as our goal is to serve your needs.  If you have a wish list item (or
items)?, or thoughts about what works well on current site and what we need
to make sure to improve,
please send your opinions to us.  We've set up a special email address where
you can directly contact the folks working on the website re-design project.
The address is
communityfeedb...@nanog.org.

We're hoping to launch the website prior to the new year, so the sooner you
get those great ideas to us, the sooner we can move the project forward.

Thank you,

Randy Epstein
Chairman, NANOG Communications Committee
On behalf of the Website Redesign Team

Folks,

This content is great .. for another list.  I know you're not happy with
receiving unsolicited mail, and yes, it's likely your addresses were
scraped from either the mailing list itself or various archives that are
kept, but this list is not the best place to discuss this.

Please refrain from these types of discussions on the NANOG mailing list.
We are doing everything in our power to keep the list on-topic and stop
abuse when we see it.  We don't take situations like this lightly.

Thank you all in advance and if you have any issue with this, please

I agree with most of your reply.  In regards to ratios, I firmly believe
they don't make sense between peers as well.  When you operate an eyeball
network, you need
to expect that your users are pulling the data from the content providers.
Your ratios will always be unbalanced with most of your peers.

If ratios are really a concern and you really need to maximize your port
capacity, there are ways to balance this; balance your customer base.  Start
hosting content.  Now, this might not help on private peering interconnects,
but if you peer publicly, this will help you balance (and take advantage of)
your public peering capacity.

Either way, ratios are very 1990s.  As has been mentioned before, it was
more of an excuse not to peer by the monopolistic entities that made up a
big portion of the Internet in the 90s and isn't very relevant today.

No need for me to repeat what Mike has posted.  I agree 100% with him on all

I had some differences with Mike over legacy policies that Hurricane adopted
initially, but after spending time with him and explaining those issues, he
did everything in his power to correct them.  I'd even say he went above and

I hope this issue gets resolved quickly.  I've seen first hand the political
issues in v4 and I really hope we don't have a repeat of this in v6.  There
are a handful of providers that have turned to a restrictive IPv6 policy (or

outrageous at this point in time.

Yes, I've read it.  They need to fix their .

So while Cogent was depeered by Sprint, we contacted the CEO of Cogent on
Friday to try and arrange at least a temporary peering arrangement so that
bits flowed between our networks while they battled this situation out with
Sprint.  Cogent's response?  Buy transit from them.

I presume one of Sprint's dissatisfactions during the trial with Cogent were
ratios.  My network happens to have a very high ratio of eyeballs (inbound
traffic) vs outbound traffic.  One would believe that Cogent would like to
offload their outbound traffic to networks other than their Tier-1 peers, to
at least give them an upper hand when negotiating peering arrangements with
these networks.

It's funny how Cogent depeers networks whenever they want, but the second
another network depeers them, they cry foul.

published an article today on his blog regarding this subject:

http://www.renesys.com/blog/2008/10/wrestling-with-the-zombie-spri.shtml

An aside, WV Fiber (AS19151) is currently partitioned from Cogent since
AS19151 only contracts with Sprint for transit and is settlement-free with
the rest of its peers.  As previously reported, late last year, Cogent
depeered AS19151 for unknown reasons.  Up until yesterday, this wasn't much
of a problem.  Now unfortunately, the two networks (AS19151 and AS174) are
partitioned.  Any single homed WV Fiber customer and any single homed Cogent
customer can not reach each other.  WV Fiber hosts over 7 million eyeballs
and many networks under its AS.

We hope Sprint and Cogent work out their differences, but in the mean time,
we unfortunately will remain partitioned from Cogent.

This is not surprising at all.  One of the networks making arrangements to
purchase transit immediately may help the customers of both networks in the
short term, but the reality is that peering problem still exists and it
immediately shows a weakness on one side.  If they're willing to pay, they
may agree to peering with settlements as well or just continue to buy
transit.  No transit free network is going to allow this to happen.  It is
in their best interest to make the de-peering as painful as possible to get
a quicker resolution that satisfies both parties.

Maybe not the greatest analogy, but think labor strikes and scabs (temporary
workers willing to cross the picket line).  If there were no repercussions
to allowing scab workers to cross a picket line (lack of training leading to
mistakes/accidents, pressure placed by the unions, negative publicity
causing customers to boycott the company, etc), then unions wouldn't exist,
or at least wouldn't have the strength needed to put the issue to rest as
quickly as possible.

When your customers (and the other networks customers) are complaining, the
issue gets resolved much quicker.  The Telia/Cogent depeering went longer
than most, but it usually gets the job done.

In 2006, I signed a 3 year contract with Broadwing for a 1 cabinet

about halfway through this contract, I get a letter from Level 3's

hundred dollars a month.

I spoke with my new Level 3 rep, and he just notified me that their legal 
deparment confirms that all they have to do is give me 30 days notice to 
increase their price.

This does not make sense to me.  I am bound to a 3 year contract, where I 
have to pay them the rest of the term if I were to leave early, but they 
can jack up the price by 40-50% during that time, arbitrarily?  I do not 
see that provision in my contract, and would rather avoid legal expenses 
if possible.  Has anyone else had to deal with this sort of thing from 
Level 3?

TIA,

Re: [NANOG] Purpose of Internap's PNET AS22212

2008-04-28 Thread Randy Epstein
Thurber,

PNET (AS22212) is looked upon by InterNAP's PNAPs (its various ASes) as just
another transit provider in the mix.

So yes, InterNAP technically peers (under AS22212), but there is no
guarantee its various PNAPs would choose that path, depending upon a number
of factors.

(Disclaimer: This is what I've gathered from public information, not from
information obtained under non-disclosure.)

Regards,

Randy

Subject: [NANOG] Purpose of Internap's PNET AS22212

Can anybody shed some light on Internap's PNET AS22212? Specifaly how it
relates to their PNAP architecture?  Is Internap now doing peering? I was
under the impression that their entire business model was based around
isolated PNAPs and being a backboneless provider. Attempts at getting an
explanation from Internap have been fruitless.

[NANOG] AS3300-BT Infonet sends full table to AS1239-Sprint

2008-04-26 Thread Randy Epstein
All,

At ~19:00 UTC today, AS3300-BT/Infonet announced their full routing table to
AS1239-Sprint, and Sprint accepted it and re-announced it to all of their
peers and transit customers.

Example:

*> 3.0.0.0  144.228.191.169   100  0 1239 3300 21484
6661 3257 701 703 80 i

As a peer of AS3300, our max-prefix filters knocked down the session
immediately at multiple peering points in the US and Europe.

After ~20 minutes, we started noticing AS3300 announcements via some of our
other peers, that we wouldn't normally see.

Anyone from AS3300 on the list to explain?

Regards,

Randy Epstein

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