Andros Island Connectivity?
by Aaron C. de Bruyn 01 May '13

01 May '13

I just had a client drop an interesting requirement on me. They are on Andros Island (Bahamas) for about a year. I'm working on getting an exact address from the adminisphere above me, but all I've been told so far is they are 'near the naval base'. They just called and said "We need internet access yesterday". None of the people on-site are technical, and all their data is accessed via RDP on a server in the United States. Having never been there, I have no idea if it's like downtown San Francisco where the internet grows on trees, or if it's like the Sahara desert which might require dragging your own fiber in on camelback... Does anyone have pointers on who to talk to or how I can get them internet access? -A

Hi, Please also note that modern VSAT hubs (idirect, viasat) -some better than other- can emulate SCPC. They also support QoS, tcp spoofing and many other nice features.

They will not be happy with VSAT latency (typically 700ms though physics says you can never do better than 550, and that's for the space segment alone) if they are running RDP, VNC, Citrix, or similar technologies.

Sorry for being a buzzkill, Warren. :) Actually, Citrix (in particular) works quite well over satellite latencies. The network project I'm working on right now is wrapping up an app rollout to about 100 countries, many of which we can only reach via VSAT. Testing showed that Citrix performance is much better for AJAX-y web apps than pure HTTP. Citrix has a bunch of intelligence built-in specifically to deal with issues related to high-latency/low-bandwidth circuits, including local mouse, local echo, click/movement aggregation into large packets, and of course compression-before-encryption. It's not quite Memorex, but it's very usable. I'd be happy to share the data with anyone who is interested; I also showed that F5 Big-IP load balancers can make really horrible ERP apps (*ahem* Oracle eBusiness *cough* *cough* *cough*) work a lot better as well, if you decide not to use Citrix. jms -- Joel M Snyder, 1404 East Lind Road, Tucson, AZ, 85719 Senior Partner, Opus One Phone: +1 520 324 0494 jms(a)Opus1.COM http://www.opus1.com/jms

This is a natural process. Null0 or ACLs don't stay up for days or weeks on end. That doesn't mean this catches 100% of all cases, but many ISPs get a daily report of phishing sites and malware hosted on their network each morning. You can get one too! http://www.shadowserver.org/wiki/pmwiki.php/Involve/GetReportsOnYourNetwork You can get a daily ATLAS report from Arbor as well: http://atlas.arbor.net/ (Although I can't get anyone to fix a problem with it, so anyone there can email me if you have the power to fix it). There are other aggregators of data as well, such as SIE. If you don't know the health of your network, take a look. Many folks will email you these reports automatically, or provide you a direct feed (some in realtime, such as SIE). - Jared

[NANOG-announce] New NANOG website launching tomorrow evening - Maintenance Notice
by Randy Epstein 29 Apr '13

29 Apr '13

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 webmaster(a)nanog.org. Thank you, Randy Epstein On behalf of the Website Redesign Team _______________________________________________ NANOG-announce mailing list NANOG-announce(a)mailman.nanog.org http://mailman.nanog.org/mailman/listinfo/nanog-announce
