4bytes ASn and RFC1745

2010-03-14 Thread Bit Gossip
experts, what are the consequences of 4bytes ASn (RFC4893) for RFC1745 - BGP4/IDRP for IP---OSPF Interaction? In particular with regards to storing the AutonomousSystem in the lowest 16 bits of the External Route Tag (=32 bits)? Thanks, bit

Inside plant 10G fiber specs?

2010-03-14 Thread Jeff Kell
I am working up network specs for a new building, and trying to accomodate a 10G distribution from the start. The safe bet of running singlemode everywhere doesn't quite fit due to cost of the optics and the need for multimode for some other (non-network) devices anyway. We have a legacy

Howdy, this might be slightly off-topic here, but. I know they likely only sold 50 or so of these units but I was wondering if anyone still uses them that has any technical prowess with these units. I've run into a recurring technical snag and obviously since they are EOS (and Avaya seems to

I agree - this convention is easy to type/understand/automate. Makes it easy to AXFR and see which devices are in a pop. We throw a bit of Perl at our device configs to create RR's for each device (imagine doing it manually... blergh). KISS :) -- Tom On 14/03/2010, at 5:23 AM, ck wrote: i
