Mae-East instability
by Curtis Villamizar 20 Jul '95

20 Jul '95

Some of our peers have been dropping BGP a bit more often lately. Somebody had a real bad day on Tuesday. Jul.18: 192.41.177.252 1:35:13 mae-east-rt2.es.net Jul.18: 192.41.177.125 1:23:29 mae-east.nsn.nasa.gov Jul.18: 192.41.177.251 0:59:05 mae-east-rt1.es.net Jul.18: 192.41.177.241 0:08:56 sl-mae-e-F0/0.sprintlink.net Here's a list giving the number of disconnects (where there were 5 or more disonnects per day). The majority of flapping seems to be at Mae-East and Mae-West. date peer hits Jul 18 192.157.69.250 8 rs1.sprint.ra.net NY NAP Jul 18 192.41.177.125 72 mae-east.nsn.nasa.gov MaeE Jul 18 192.41.177.251 34 mae-east-rt1.es.net MaeE Jul 18 192.41.177.252 56 mae-east-rt2.es.net MaeE The July 18 problem was mostly concentrated over one 3.5 hour period of continuous flap. Jul 18 07:19:28 to Jul 18 10:52:30 (122:47 / 213:02) 192.41.177.125 took 50 hits (57:00) 192.41.177.252 took 41 hits (62:31) 192.41.177.251 took 17 hits (34:19) Any clues from NASA and ESNET as to why this instability occurred at Mae-east? Was this some form of BGP meltdown or just hardware trouble at or getting to the Mae? Curtis

broken glue in .net domain
by Michael Dillon 19 Jul '95

19 Jul '95

We are attempting to get the Internic to change our secondary nameserver for the junction.net domain but not having much luck. Our change requests for in-addr.arpa went through in a few days. But the Internic rejected the first request saying we needed to use a new form. So we resubmitted but it is now almost two weeks ago. What is the point of a new form if we cannot get things updated any faster? Then we noticed that DNS to our new secondary nameserver ns2.bc.net was acting wierd. So we dug into the .net domain and discovered several A records with the WRONG IP ADDRESS. I don't know whether it was a typing error at the Internic or whether somebody at BC.NET screwed up, but why do changes like this take so long if nobody even verifies such a simple and obvious thing? You can see this by trying the whois command on sno.net, infoserve.net or concordpacific.net Compare the IP address for ns2.bc.net with the one given by nslookup when talking to an authoratative server for the domain like jade.bc.net In addition there is at least one glue record for ns1.bc.net which erroneously reports its IP address to be 128.198.4.1 which is also wrong since ns1 is the same as jade.bc.net Michael Dillon Voice: +1-604-546-8022 Memra Software Inc.

Re: Call for Mbone reflectors
by rsingleton＠hai-net.com 16 Jul '95

16 Jul '95

Hi my name is Rickie Singleton from Arlington VA. I would like to become an active participant on the Mbone and I would like to set up a reflector. I will be using an SGI extreme 2. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a reflector setup. I am hoping the mrouted 3.x will fix my mbone problem and I am currently running CUSEEME on my mac. Now comes the task of setting up a reflector on the SGI. Would appreciate any comments. thx Rickie ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Call for Mbone reflectors Author: bmanning(a)ISI.EDU at internet Date: 7/12/95 12:06 PM > > Bill, > > We have the mbone slot reserved for ISN.

What I really want to avoid is a reflector hosted at the IETF site and all that CUSeeMe traffic converging on that machine.. :) Any clues/assistance etc. would be helpful. -- --bill

MAE policies?
by Andras Salamon 11 Jul '95

11 Jul '95

There is an initiative here in South Africa to set up equivalents of MAE-East and MAE-West to achieve local connectivity between the separate ISP networks. Does anyone have documentation on the MAEs, especially policy? Pointers to ftp or web sites would be great. -- Andras Salamon andras(a)is.co.za
