Hi there all, I'm arriving on Friday evening -- was wondering who all might be around on Saturday? Anyone interested in doing something? Sightseeing, wandering around, etc? W -- Some people are like Slinkies......Not really good for anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

non-congested comcast peers?

Are there any providers that Comcast doesn't regularly run hot? Seems like no matter who I deliver through at some magical point in the evening they start spiking jitter and a little loss. Almost like everyone hits PLAY on netflix at the same time. -shac

What differentiates this from many of the earlier domain name seizures is that this is based on a grand jury indictment, not just an administrative decision by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It may be heavy-handed or questionable, per the Ars Technica analysis, but as a matter of process it's about as good as you'll get. > > Sent from my HTC > > ----- Reply message ----- > From: "Ryan Gelobter" <ryan.g(a)atwgpc.net> > To: "NANOG" <nanog(a)nanog.org> > Subject: Megaupload.com seized > Date: Thu, Jan 19, 2012 6:41 pm > > > The megaupload.com domain was seized today, has anyone noticed significant > drops in network traffic as a result? > > http://www.scribd.com/doc/78786408/Mega-Indictment > http://techland.time.com/2012/01/19/feds-shut-down-megaupload-com-file-shar… --Steve Bellovin, https://www.cs.columbia.edu/~smb

Route Optimization Software / Appliance

Hello Group, I was wondering if anyone could share their experience with any route optimization approaches, methodologies or platforms, either open source or commercial (Internap FCP), that can actively adjust BGP parameters based on latency and number of layer 3 hops to a network rather than AS hops. We have upstreams all over the country and we would like to automate optimization to take the best egress path. Thank you for your feedback in advance.
