Request for Participation in International Survey on Network Engineering Workforce Development
by MAEMURA Akinori 05 Dec '25

05 Dec '25

Dear colleagues at NANOG, I hope this message finds you well. I'd like to ask you for some help by participating our questionnaire survey: The Japan Network Information Center (JPNIC) and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) of Japan are conducting a joint research initiative on the development and retention of network engineering talent. As part of this effort, we are gathering insights from global stakeholders. [Reference] Launch of a Research Study on Securing and Developing Network Engineering Talent, and Request for Cooperation https://www.nic.ad.jp/en/topics/2025/20251205-04.html Japan faces several challenges including regional disparities, shortages of skilled personnel among smaller operators, and gaps in structured training and career development pathways. To inform effective policy development, we seek to learn from your country’s experiences, practices, and ideas. We would be sincerely grateful if you could participate in our international survey on the current status, challenges, and policy approaches related to network engineer development. We plan to share preliminary findings at future forums, and your input will play a meaningful role in shaping this work. The survey can be accessed at the following link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/japan-hrd2025 ・Estimated time required: 10-15 minutes ・Survey deadline: December 18 ・Responses will be kept confidential, anonymized during analysis, and used solely for research purposes. ・Any personal information (if provided) will be used only for follow-up communication related to this study. Your expertise and perspectives would be extremely valuable to us. If appropriate, please feel free to forward this invitation to others who may offer relevant insights. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you very much for your time and cooperation.

Arista 7280QR-C36 Viability
by Mike Hammett 04 Dec '25

04 Dec '25

At the risk of the Streisand effect, what am I missing about the Arista 7280QR-C36? It looks like a great router for small ISPs (great price, large packet buffers, good port selection, meaningful hardware routes). That said, it looks to be right on the border of DFZ viability. It supports "over 1M" routes, but I currently have about 1,036,824 in my route table. How much over is "over"? What happens in EOS when it goes over? What's the "next best" box for that role? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest-IX http://www.midwest-ix.com

Whatever happened to ONOS?
by Mark Prosser 04 Dec '25

04 Dec '25

I remember quite a long time ago being convinced that ONOS & other SDN projects would change the industry. All the podcasts were suggesting they would as well... Today, in the context of what was promised, they seemingly Still Do Nothing One project I thought was especially interesting was ONOS.... it seemed to really suggest it would transform Telcos in the Whitebox craze timeline. As Openflow and such fell off, I remember ONOS pivoting to SR-TE & PCE... but I haven't heard about it in quite a while. Is anyone using this in production? The websites seem to still exist. https://wiki.onosproject.org/ https://opennetworking.org/onos/ Just curious. Warm regards, -- Mark Prosser // E: mark(a)zealnetworks.ca // W: https://zealnetworks.ca
