Re: DS3 mux recommendation

2010-09-09 Thread sjk
We use Adtran MX2820s which have been pretty reliable. They are designed
for medium density, so I am not sure if they'll be applicable to your
situation. We pull and trap a fair amount of snmp from them with no
problems.

 before. (Long ago)  The products back then worked fine on line level
 but management interface was awful and if you threw too much SNMP at
 it and the management interface locked up.
 
 Are there anything better out there these days?

Re: U.S. Plans Cyber Shield for Utilities, Companies

2010-07-11 Thread sjk
$100M is for the first phase, which I would think would be the initial
deployment of intrusions sensors with out of band data feeds, and the
building of a baseline traffic model. The real question is why do any
critical control networks ever touch anything remotely connected to a
public network? Laziness - that's why.

 As soon as you do business with the govt, the overhead goes through the roof.

Re: Strange practices?

Hve seen it a few times -- usually with enterprise customers who are
unable to manage their own routers and one ISP which has problems
configuring BGP on their client facing equipment.

 Has anyone ever heard of a multi-homed enterprise not running bgp with
 either of 2 providers, but instead, each provider statically routes a block
 to their common customer and also each originates this block in BGP?   One
 of the ISP's in this case owns the block and has even provided a letter of
 authorization to the other, allowing them to announce it in BGP as well.
   I had personally never heard of this and am curious if this is a common
 practice as well as if this would potentially create any problems by 2
 Autonomous Systems both originating the same prefix.

Re: NetFlow analyzer software

We currently use nfsen - http://nfsen.sourceforge.net/ -- It works

 All,
I am looking for decent netflow analyzer and reporting  software with good

ManagEngine's product crashes or locks up my browser when I try to 
 list/sort the AS info because it's too large of a list and there is no way to 
 tell it to show just the top x results.
Plixer's Scrutenizer, while it seems like it's a pretty decent product, is 
 no longer supporting Linux... We are a Linux shop (servers, desktops,

What else is there that I might want to look at?

 About 4 hours ago BGPmon picked up a rogue announcement of 129.77.0.0 from 
 AS9035 (ASN-WIND Wind Telecomunicazioni spa) with an upstream of AS1267 
 (ASN-INFOSTRADA Infostrada S.p.A.). I don't see it now on any looking glass 
 sites. Hopefully this was just a typo that was quickly corrected. I would 
 appreciate if people have time and can double check let me know if any 
 announcements are active except from our AS6128/AS6395 upstreams.
 
 If this were to persist, what would be the best course of action to resolve 
 it, especially given that the AS was within RIPE.

Residential BW Planning

2009-08-11 Thread sjk
I am trying to perform some capacity planning for some of our
residential pops, but the old calcs I used to use seem useless -- as
they were adapted from the dialup days and relied upon a percentage of
users online (~50%) and a percentage of concurrent transmission (~19%).
My present scenario involves a micro-pop terminating 250 residences
where users are expecting 4 mb/s. So I am looking for some baseline to
begin at, so I am wondering what others are doing.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks

 Hi all,

 First, thanks for using Cyclops, and thanks for all the Cyclops users that
 drop me a message about this.

 It seems some router in AS13214 decided to originate all the prefixes and
 send them to AS48285 in the Caymans, all the ASPATHs are 48285 13214.
 The first announcement was on 2009-05-11 11:03:11 UTC and last on 2009-05-11
 12:16:32 UTC, there were 266,289 prefixes leaked (they were withdrawn
 afterwards)
 
 It looks like AS13214 are misbehaving again...  We have just started
 receiving cyclops alerts indicating that AS13214 is announcing our
 prefixes again:

We are seeing the same thing for two of our prefixes:

Offending attribute:  66.251.224.0/19-13214

Offending attribute:  66.146.192.0/19-48285

Pretty annoying

DSX cross-connect solution

2009-05-04 Thread sjk
I am trying to find hardware for a rebuild of our DS1 cross-connect
frame and can't seem to find much out there. We've got ~300 DS1s that
need to be x-connected between our M13s and I'm seeking an easy to

my staff can't deal with wirewrap terminations. Has anyone seen, simply,
a high density 66 field that can fit in a 23 rack?
