Fri AM AT&T outage

I heard speculation from many quarters that this may have been related to the Verizon splashcut to Frontier -- which, regardless of what Frontier was telling us, I was pretty sure would be more than just varying which light switch for a building sign was the one turned on. Has anyone heard anything they're allowed to repeat, yet, which confirms or denies? On a related[1] topic: I see on Craigs that Frontier is hiring through a sub for transport staff for their new NOC, which I think is going to be located in SPBGFLXA89H; that building has about 3 completely empty floors, and has for over 20 years. (OK, it did when I toured it in 91; dunno what's there now. :-) Cheers, -- jra [1]maybe -- Jay R.

shipping from US to Telstra (ex-Pacnet) facility, 11 Chun Kwong St, Hong Kong
by Joe Abley 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

Hi all, If anybody has recently managed to ship equipment from the US to the Pacnet (now Telstra) facility at 11 Chun Kwong St, Hong Kong and doesn't mind comparing notes, any chance you could drop me a line off-list? We have some shipping confusion, and it would be great to see an example of paperwork that is known not to have failed. Thanks, Joe

Capacity planning , transit vs last mile
by Jean-Francois Mezei 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

Canada is to hold a 3 week long hearing on discussing whether the internet is important and whether the farcical 5/1 speed promoted by the government is adequate. In this day and age, it would be easy to just set FTTP as target technology and be done with it, but too many want to have a policy that is technologically neutral. To this end, I will not only be proposing that subsidized deployments not only meet advertised service speed standards, but also a capacity per end user metric for the last mile technology as well as for the backhaul/transit. (One of the often subsidized companies deploys fixed wireless which delivers the advertised speed for the first week, but routinely gets oversubscribed after a while and customers feel like on dialup.) I know that for sufficiently large ISPs, they currently provision just over 1mbps of transit capacity per end user (so 800-1000 customers per 1gbps of transit). The number rises by over 30% a year as usage grows. (The CRTC can get exact figure from telecom operators and generate aggregate industry-wide growth in traffic to do yearly standard adjustment). QUESTION: Say the policy is 1mbps per customer if 1000 customer or more. Is there some formula (approx or precise) to calculate how that 1mbps changes for smaller samples ? (like 500 customers, 200 ? ) And on the last mile portion where one has typically few users on each shared capacity segment (fixed wireless, FTTP, cable), are there fairly standard oversubscription ratios based on average service speed that is sold in that neighbourhood ? (for instance if I have 100 customers with average subscibed speed of 15mbps, how much capacity should the antenna serving those customers have ? I realise that each ISP guards its oversubscription ratios as very proprietary, but aren't there generic industry-wide recommendations ? My goal is to have some basic standards that prevent gross over subscription that result in unusable service. As well, I want that a company pitching a broadband deployment be able to demonstrate that the technology being deployed will last X years because it has sufficient capacity to handle the number of customers as well as the predicted growth in usage each year. Any help ? comments on whether this is crazy ? sanity check ?

tel script
by Robert Drake 29 Mar '16

29 Mar '16

This is a program for logging into devices. You can find it here: https://github.com/rfdrake/tel I don't like to self promote things, but I'm interested in feedback. I'm also interested in alternatives if someone wrote something better. I started it a long time ago as a lighter clogin which didn't hang as much. Moving from expect to perl cut and bunch of the cruft out because of how verbose the TCL language is. My script is now larger than clogin and no longer consists of a single file. It's also arguably much cruftier in places, but it's gained some features I think people may like: Color syntax highlighting for "show interface" and some other commands An attempt to make backspace work on platforms with differing opinions of ^H vs ^? Run multiple script files and multiple devices in the same command (tel -x script1.txt -x script2.txt router router2 router3) Unified logout command: ctrl-d send slow (tel -s .5 -x script1.txt router) for sending scripts to devices with buffering issues send slow interactively (tel -S .5 router) for cut and paste to devices with buffering issues (some terminal emulators will do this if it's the only thing you need) change your device profile after login (tel -A zhone oob-test-lab:2004) helpful if you login through an out of band console which is made by one vendor into a device made by another vendor Support for KeePass, Pass, PWSafe3, and Gnome/KDE/MacOS Keyring, as well as a combination of these for storing passwords in encrypted files The entire thing is very customizeable for people who know perl or scripting languages. It's designed for NOC use on bounce servers where the administrator might setup the global profile in /etc/telrc, then the individual users would make their own profiles in their home directories to override individual settings. Limitations: I'm pretty sure I tried to build this on Cygwin once and it failed for reasons that probably can never be fixed. I've also never tested on MacOSX. I've run it successfully on various Linux as well as FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

Found on Staple's website: http://www.staples.com/NetReset-Automated-Power-Cycler-for-Modems-and-Route… Fixes all issues, less downtime, less stress... Improves performance, eliminates buffering... It slices, it dices in teeny, tiny slices. It makes mounds of julienne fries in just seconds. ... Description - copied here for convenience: All the issues associated with the Internet being down can be solved by power cycling the modem and router. But that can be hard to do! NetReset resolves network issues by offering sequential power cycling. This means that when the modem and router are plugged into the device, they are powered up at different times. The modem is powered up first, then a minute later, the router is powered up. This rebooting will occur at initial setup, every 24 hours and after a power failure. Do you have a modem/router combo? No problem! NetReset will also power cycle the modem/router combo. Automatically resets user's Internet every 24 hours Maximizes Internet speed & reliability Eliminates media stream buffering Hands-free Internet reset Resets hard-to-reach modem/router Less Internet downtime Less daily stress No need to manually reset Reset occurs at programmed time Updated information from Internet service provider Proper reboot after a power failure Resetting allows equipment to auto-correct issues

mrtg alternative

Hi I am currently using MRTG and RRD to make traffic graphs. I am searching for more modern alternatives that allows the user to dynamically zoom and scroll the timeline. Bonus points if the user can customize the graphs directly in the webbrowse. For example he might be able to add or remove individual peers from the graph by simply clicking a checkbox. What is the 2016 tool for this? Regards, Baldur
