Regional techs, Greetings. There is a new template.net form available nis.nsf.net in the nsfnet/announced.networks directory. (I've appended a copy below for your convenience). It is version 5.2 dated May 18, 1992 and is by far the hippest version to date. I'm just kidding; the primary change is that you have the option of 'T1', 'T3', or 'both' for network type. There are also more helpful hints on how to submit NACRs as well as information on when the config deadlines are and when the config installation windows are. Enjoy. Please send feedback to nsfnet-admin(a)merit.edu. Thanks, -B. Sue Blair Merit Network Operations ------------------------- [nis.nsf.net:nsfnet/announced.networks/template.net] Version 5.2 18 May 1992 NSFNET Configuration Request Template for the NSFNET policy-based routing data base ---- Network Announcement Change Request ---- This template is to request announcement of networks to the NSFNET backbone. Configuration requests may only be submitted by the designated Routing contacts for the Autonomous Systems of the NSFNET. Configuration requests should be submitted to nsfnet-admin(a)merit.edu. Please read the explanation at the bottom of this form if you are unfamiliar with its contents. ***************************************************************************** ---- Network Announcement Change Request ---- The networks which request access to the NSFNET backbone agree that traffic from the networks that will transit the NSFNET backbone comply with the "NSFNET BACKBONE SERVICES ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY" dated February 1992. Inbound Announcements Add/Del Network: to NSFNET or Change T1, T3 ----------------------- --------- Network Number/Name or both 1st AS# 2nd AS# 3rd AS# A/D/C Country ------------------- -------- ------- ------- ------- --------- ------- Network Name: Organization Name: Organization Address: Additional Comments (optional): ***************************************************************************** EXAMPLE: Suppose network 141.214 (UMNET4), wishes to be announced to the NSFNET. Furthermore, they wish to have AS 233 as their PRIORITY 1 path and AS 177 as their PRIORITY 2 path on both the T1 and T3 networks. Their network announcement change request would be filled in as follows: ***************************************************************************** ---- Network Announcement Change Request ---- The networks which request access to the NSFNET backbone agree that traffic from the networks that will transit the NSFNET backbone comply with the "NSFNET BACKBONE SERVICES ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY" dated February 1992. Inbound Announcements Add/Del Network: to NSFNET or Change T1, T3, ----------------------- --------- Network Number/Name or both 1st AS# 2nd AS# 3rd AS# A/D/C Country ------------------- -------- ------- ------- ------- --------- ------- 141.214 both 233 177 A USA Network Name: (UMNET4) Organization Name: University of Michigan Organization Address: 1075 Beal Avenue, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 If the announcements on the T1 and T3 sides of the network were going to be different, the form would be filled out: Inbound Announcements Add/Del Network: to NSFNET or Change T1, T3, ----------------------- --------- Network Number/Name or both 1st AS# 2nd AS# 3rd AS# A/D/C Country ------------------- -------- ------- ------- ------- --------- ------- 141.214 T1 233 177 A USA T3 233 177 266 Also, in this example, Merit would like AS 266 to act as a backup on the T3 side. Merit could copy the as266(a)merit.edu mailgroup on the addition request to nsfnet-admin(a)merit.edu. This would aid in faster approval response time from the AS 266 admin folks. *********************************************************************** ***** Explanation of this form ***** Network Addition Request: PLEASE NOTE: (1) The individual submitting this request affirms that traffic from the networks recommended for inclusion in the NSFNET routing tables conforms to the "NSFNET BACKBONE SERVICES ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY." (2) An Internet network number must have been assigned by the NIC.DDN.MIL prior to its addition to the NSFNET routing database. If it was not assigned by the time of this request, a message will be sent by Merit to the requestor stating that the network has not been added to the NSFNET policy-based routing database. It is then up to the requestor to resubmit the application after registration with NIC.DDN.MIL. (3) Merit has to request a separate authorization from the National Science Foundation on a per-net basis to allow foreign network numbers to be added. Additions of foreign networks therefore may result in additional delays. Configurations are typically done by Merit on Tuesday and Friday mornings of every week. The installation of new configuration files is performed Tuesday and Friday mornings from 05:00-08:00 (Eastern time), so some backbone instability may be experienced during this timeframe. Requests should be received by noon on Monday (for Tuesday morning configs) and noon on Thursday (for Friday morning configs). The columns headed '1st AS#', '2nd AS#' and '3rd AS#' should be filled with the Autonomous System numbers which are to have priorities (or path weights) 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Please note that these are inbound routing announcements TO the NSFNET backbone; which means that the specified priority impacts the path of how packets are routed towards the specified network. It is possible to have more than three priorities. The offical name of the network, as it is registered at the NIC.DDN.MIL, should appear on the line following the network number. Finally, the name and address of the organizaion to which the network belongs should be listed following the network name.

RS/960 deployment on the T3 Backbone - Week 3
by mak 15 May '92

15 May '92

Phase-III T3 Network Deployment - Step 3 Status Report ====================================================== Jordan Becker, ANS Mark Knopper, Merit Step 3 of the phase-III network was successfully completed last Saturday 5/9. This was the most extensive step that is planned as part of the phase-III deployment. It was completed with only a few minor problems that caused us to extend our scheduled maintainence window by 1 hour and 55 minutes. The deployment was completed at 11:55 EST on 5/9. The following T3 backbone nodes are currently running with new T3 RS960 hardware and software in a stable configuration: Seattle POP: CNSS88, CNSS89, CNSS91 Denver POP: CNSS96, CNSS97, CNSS99 San Fran. POP: CNSS8, CNSS9, CNSS11 L.A. POP: CNSS16, CNSS17, CNSS19 Chicago POP: CNSS24, CNSS25, CNSS27 Cleveland POP: CNSS40, CNSS41, CNSS43 New York City POP: CNSS32, CNSS33, CNSS35 Hartford POP: CNSS48, CNSS49, CNSS51 Regionals: ENSS141 (Boulder), ENSS142 (Salt Lake), ENSS143 (U. Washington) ENSS128 (Palo Alto), ENSS144 (FIX-W), ENSS135 (San Diego) ENSS130 (Argonne), ENSS131 (Ann Arbor), ENSS132 (Pittsburgh), ENSS133 (Ithaca), ENSS134 (Boston) ENSS137 (Princeton) CNSS16, CNSS96, CNSS24, CNSS32, CNSS48 are now running with mixed technology (e.g. 3xRS960 T3 interfaces, 1xHawthorne T3 interface). Step 3 Deployment Difficulties ============================== During the step 3 deployment, there was a suspected bad RS/960 card removed from the Ann Arbor ENSS131 node. This took about 1 hour of trouble shooting time. The T1-C1 (C35) crashed and would not reboot. This turned out to be a loose connector to the SCSI controller. This was probably due the physical move of all CNSS equipment within the NYU POP. There was a problem getting the link to Argonne E130 back online. This turned out to be a misconnected cable on the DSU. There was also an early Saturday morning problem with the T3-B machine at the Cleveland POP. The machine would come up, and then crash within minutes. A number of different troubleshooting procedures were attempted, and the final solution was to replace the RS960 card which inter-connects the T3-B machine to the T3-C1 (e.g. C40->C41). There was a metal shaving on the HSSI connector, however when this was removed, the card still did not work. This was the last machine to be upgraded and it took us a few hours to fix (9am-11am). Finally, during the trouble shooting of the Cleveland CNSS40 node, we found the RS960 card in the Chicago POP CNSS27 node had frozen (probably mis-seated or broken card). It had been running fine for an estimated 5 hours. The card was replaced. Ten hours after the upgrade, everything seemed to be normal with one exception. There was an abnormal packet loss rate between CNSS8<->CNSS9 measured via an on-card RS960 utility program. The RS960 card in the CNSS8 node was replaced Sunday at 6:00am PST. During the deployment activities the "rover" monitoring software was running at both Merit (Ann Arbor) and ANS (Elmsford), with a backup monitor running at an unused RS/6000 CNSS at the Denver POP. An effort was made to leave either Ann Arbor or Elmsford up and connected to the T3 backbone at all times during the night, so that the backup monitor was not required to be used. The NOC was able to successfully monitor the T1 and T3 backbones throughout the deployment timeframe. In addition to all the normal deployment activities, we were able to swap the T960 ethernet card at Pittsburgh. Following the weekend deployment, we identified an RS960 card on CNSS25 that was recording some DMA underrun errors. This was not affecting user traffic, but the card was scheduled to be swapped out as a pre-caution. Since we are revisiting the Chicago POP site during the upcoming step 4 deployment this weekend, we will replace the card then. Taking into consideration that we upgraded 4 POPs at the same time, we feel this deployment went rather well. There were 4 RS960 cards that were shipped backed to IBM for failure analysis. Preliminary analysis in the lab did not result in any reproducible failures. We now have a complete cross-country RS960 path established. We have established modified T3 link metrics to balance traffic across the 5 existing hybrid links. We are watching very closely over the next two weeks for any circuit or equipment problems that result in the cross-country RS960 path being broken, since this could cause congestion on one or more hybrid links. Step 4 Deployment Scheduled for 5/15 ==================================== Based upon the successful completion of step 3 of the deployment, step 4 is currently scheduled to commence at 23:00 local time on 5/15. Step 4 will involve the following nodes/locations: St. Louis POP: CNSS80, CNSS81, CNSS83 Houston POP: CNSS64, CNSS65, CNSS67 Second Visit: CNSS96 (Denver), CNSS24 (Chicago), CNSS16 (L.A.) Regionals: ENSS130 (Argonne), ENSS140 (Lincoln), ENSS139 (Rice) Other ENSS's Affected: ENSS165, ENSS157, ENSS174, ENSS173 During this deployment the Houston ENSS139 node will be isolated from the backbone. Therefore the Houston T1/T3 interconnect will be switched over to San Diego ENSS135 prior to the deployment. The Ann Arbor ENSS131 interconnect gateway is expected to remain operational throughout the deployment. Following the step 4 deployment, selected T3 internal link metrics will be re-adjusted to support load balancing of traffic across the 3 different hybrid technology links that will exist. The selection of these link metrics has been chosen through a calculation of traffic distributions on each link based upon an AS<->AS traffic matrix.

RS/960 upgrade status report for Week 2
by mak 07 May '92

07 May '92

Phase-III RS960 Deployment Status Report - Step 2 ================================================= Jordan Becker, ANS Mark Knopper, Merit Step 2 of the phase-III network upgrade was successfully completed last Saturday 5/2. The following T3 backbone nodes are currently running with new T3 hardware and software in a stable configuration: Seattle POP: CNSS88, CNSS89, CNSS91 Denver POP: CNSS96, CNSS97, CNSS99 San Fran. POP: CNSS8, CNSS9, CNSS11 L.A. POP: CNSS16, CNSS17, CNSS19 Regionals: ENSS141 (Boulder), ENSS142 (Salt Lake), ENSS143 (U. Washington) ENSS128 (Palo Alto), ENSS144 (FIX-W), ENSS135 (San Diego) CNSS8, CNSS16, CNSS96 are now running with mixed technology (e.g. 3xRS960 T3 interfaces, 1xHawthorne T3 interface). Production traffic on the affected Bay Area ENSS nodes was cutover to the T1 backbone at 2:00 AM EST on 5/2. Production traffic on ENSS135 was cutover two hours earlier. The San Francisco and Los Angeles POP nodes were returned to full service by 10:50 AM EST on 5/2, well within the planned maintainence window. The maintainence in the Los Angeles POP was complicated by the curfew existing at that time. Normally a specially trained 2-3 person deployment team is scheduled to perform these upgrades at each POP location. Because of the circumstances in Los Angeles, a special IBM engineer (Carl Kraft) from Gaithersberg, Maryland was deployed to the Los Angeles POP to perform the upgrade by himself. Carl was able to upgrade the node single-handedly on schedule. Several new procedures were developed following the first deployment step in Seattle and Denver on 4/25. These procedures helped to reduce the installation window and number of installation problems experienced on 4/25. The only problem experienced was the supected failure of a single RS960 adapter during the installation at ENSS128 (Palo Alto). This problem was isolated to the adapter within several minutes and the adapter was swapped resulting in successful operation of the node. A subsequent failure analysis of the RS960 adapter has not resulted in any reproducible problems, and has been attributed to an improper seating of the adapter in ENSS128 during the initial installation. Next Steps ========== Based upon the successful completion of step 2 of the deployment, step3 is currently scheduled to commence at 23:00 local time on 5/8. Step 3 will involve the following nodes/locations: Chicago POP: CNSS24, CNSS25, CNSS27 Cleveland POP: CNSS40, CNSS41, CNSS43 New York City POP: CNSS32, CNSS33, CNSS35 Hartford POP: CNSS48, CNSS49, CNSS51 San Fran. POP: CNSS8 (Second visit to CNSS8->CNSS24 Interface) Regionals: ENSS130 (Argonne), ENSS131 (Ann Arbor), ENSS132 (Pittsb urgh) ENSS133 (Ithaca), ENSS134 (Boston), ENSS137 (Princeton) Other ENSS's Affected: E152, E162, E154, E158, E167, E168, E171, E172, E163, E155, E160, E161, E164, E169 The system software (build 2.78.22) required to support RS960 installations has been fully deployed to all T3 network nodes as of early this week. New rcp_routed software has also been installed on all T3 nodes, although this is not a pre-requisite for any phase-III deployment activities. The new rcp_routed software has enhancements including support for externally administered inter-AS metrics, an auto-restart capability, and a fix for the invalid acceptance by the ENSS of a route to itself from a peer. Following the step 3 deployment, selected T3 internal link metrics will be adjusted to support load balancing of traffic across the 5 different hybrid technology links that will exist. The selection of these link metrics has been chosen through a calculation of traffic distributions on each link based upon an AS<->AS traffic matrix. This step of the deployment involves 4 POPs, and will complete the coast to coast RS/960 path for a large proportion of the backbone traffic. During the step 3 deployment, the Ann Arbor ENSS will be isolated from the T3 backbone. Since the Merit/ANS NOC is located in Ann Arbor, and Merit's backup connectivity to the backbone will be through the T1 network, we are implementing a backup network management machine. The "rover" monitoring tool is running on an unused RS/6000 CNSS at the Denver POP, and its data collection capability will be used if there is any problem with Merit's connection to the T3 backbone. Also during this deployment the Princeton ENSS will be isolated from the backbone. This means that both the Ann Arbor T1/T3 interconnect gateway and its backup at Princeton will not be operational. Therefore on Friday night we will run the Houston interconnect as primary, and temporarily configure the San Diego interconnect gateway as secondary with load sharing being handled as with the Ann Arbor/Houston configuration.

Re: 05/07/92 ENSS 138 Atlanta Scheduled Maintenance 05:00 - 07:00 EDT
by Mark Knopper 07 May '92

07 May '92

Just to clarify, the purpose of this scheduled maintenance is to reboot the CNSS73 node at the Atlanta MCI POP in order to clear a "black link" condition on the link to neighbor C72. This is the kind of problem that will be eliminated once the RS/960 deployment is complete.
