For example, "intranets" are not "new" ways to bypass the Internet, and there is no such thing as a "private Internet". Intranets are just marketing-speak for the _existing_ local networks that the Internet joined together. Most local networks are already "private"; private networks have been with us for decades, and the "big I" Internet connects them to make them accessible outside their locality. Although you have identified some of the problems with currently priced phone systems, you were incorrect to state that the largest cost to the PSTN is the switches and wires. It is well documented here in the States that that the largest expense of any PSTN is the cost of administration, billing, and call management. It is clear that the primary edge enjoyed by the current Internet pricing models is the reduction in administrative overhead. It is inaccurate to say that "[Internet] users pay only for their cars and its fuel". The cost of the "street" is fixed, and well known to the providers, and is already included in the monthly cost of the "fuel". Similar to how we already fund roads here in the States (fuel tax)! And I wouldn't place too much credibility on the Varian/Mackie-Mason papers. As I have been watching them for some years, they published the same papers with minor modifications in multiple publications (a general no-no in the academic community for padding their Curriculum Vitae), and have had in the past models that bore little resemblance to Internet reality. As Mackie-Mason once admitted to me, (paraphrased off the top of my head) these concepts have been over-simplified for the consumption of economists. > That's true: in a conversation with Phil Lawlor (CEO of AGIS), he told me > that one of his customers ISPs, who was also peering with AGIS at the > Mae-E, indulged in "bandwidth stealing" by receiving their Usenet news feed > across Mae-E rather than as an AGIS customer across the few T-1s they had > to AGIS. > It seems you do not understand the concept of "peering", and little understand routing mechanisms. If the ISP is peering with AGIS at MAE-East, then AGIS has agreed to accept traffic _sent_ from the ISP at MAE-East for the rest of its network, at those locations included in AGIS BGP advertisements. Conversely, unless the AGIS routing sends to that ISP at MAE-East, then it would be impossible for the ISP to _receive_ their Usenet feed from AGIS. Therefore, AGIS itself _must_ have directed the flow at the ISP via MAE-East. The Internet routing is based on best-effort forwarding, not receiving.

Inter-provider relations
by JDF 26 Oct '96

26 Oct '96

Interesting speech from Peter Kline at NANOG today...it seems that AGIS's peering requirements are now so strict that AGIS today would not peer with AGIS of only a few months ago. Then there's Peter's comment to Ron Burleson, Cheif Operating Officer of CAIS Internet (some of you know that CAIS had a very good relationship with Net99, which continued for a while under AGIS.) "Ron, we're going to squish you like a bug." Peter is doing wonders for inter-provider relations. What do y'all say that the rest of us follow the older, more friendly model, instead of trying to kill each other? Sure, a lot of us are in competition. From today's speech, it seems that AGIS is is more competition than the rest of us. But personally, if I were a small or mid-size provider, I'd rather buy service from somebody that I've seen to be in /friendly/ competition with their peers -- that way, once I got big enough to strike out on my own, I could stay friendly with my old provider on a peer instead of a customer level. This was the intention with the Net99 deal, back when Net99 was known as "the backbone that doesn't suck." Back to the point -- like it or not, we all rely on each other and each others' networks to make the Internet happen. We can follow the AGIS model and cut each others' throats until we really are just a bunch of autonomous systems with the occasional path between, or we can interconnect -- network, to use a more laoded term. I think we should be a network. (Please note that while I am speaking only for myself, CAIS's business plan is more on the friendly side.) -- J.D.

OK. So take the US 1/2 circuit costs for both halves of a Atlantic circuit. A T1 would cost 5 - 6 time more across the Atlantic vs 10 times the cost if it was 1/2 US 1/2 Euro-Telco. If the circuit was across the Pacific, and you used the US price for both 1/2s then a T1 would be 7 - 8 time more than a T1 in the US. Yes, Jeremy. You cannot escape the fact that the rest of the world subsidizes US ISP who access the Internet around the world. The economics are skewed. A customer in a ISP in country X. would pay the realistic charges for International access. A customer in a ISP in the US pay domestic access for full international connectivity. That's reality.

Some of you may find the subject URL of interest. It points to statistical summaries of a largish set of pings that we have been conducting regularly since December 1993. This is the data that persuaded Bob Metcalfe to change his prediction from complete demise of the Internet in 1996 to multiple small catastrophes. Your interpretation may vary. Geographical summaries of this data have been available for some time as the MIDS Internet Weather Report <URL:http://www.mids.org/weather>. Thanks, John John S.

Most of all Europe heavily subsidizes its own government bureaucracies. In some places it's cheaper to drag a circuit to US and back than from one European country to another. There are numerous licensing problems. Then, you forgot direct U.S. subsidies (like ICM program sponsored by NSF). Without ICM, the access costs for European (and elsewhere) countries would be quite a lot higher. Finally, the situation will change when backbone carriers will truely internationalize by expanding backbones beyond U.S., and when large European companies will expand business to U.S. (some do -- like BT which gave MCI quite a chunk of money, which at least partially were used to build MCInet). Some my friends used to work for Cable & Wireless, which is moving into Internet business as well (in U.S.). --vadim

AGIS has been at the specified exchange points for well over a year, long before the trickle of peering requests turned into an ugly, swirling, threat-filled flood. > Then there's Peter's comment to Ron Burleson, Cheif Operating >Officer of CAIS Internet (some of you know that CAIS had a very good >relationship with Net99, which continued for a while under AGIS.) "Ron, >we're going to squish you like a bug." 1. The author of this mail was not present at the conversation, which took place when this guy Burleson, who I've never heard of, cornered me in the empty lunch room outside of the NANOG meeting room. 2. This mail makes it obvious that Burleson deliberately set out to make me say something which could be reported out of context in an attempt to make AGIS look bad. It also explains why he made sure the room was empty. 3. The comment misquoted above is also horribly out of context. Let's review the actual conversation: RB: Do you know who I am? ME: No. Should I? Have we met before? RB: I'm Ron Burleson, self important president of CGX Telecom [who?], which owns CAIS [oh. I thought Cable and Wireless bought an interest in CAIS, but I guess I was wrong.]. ME: OK. RB: You didn't [blah blah blah tirade tuned out about CAIS and AGIS]. ME: OK. RB: Why don't you return my phone calls or answer my mail? ME: For some time now I have received much more mail and many more phone calls than I can personally answer. RB: I'm going to fuck the AGIS network any way I can. ME: So, you're going to fuck the AGIS network... Here I paused to consider my responses, which could have included: - Thank you. - Thank you very much. - Fuck you. - Fuck you very much. - I'd fuck your network back, but I don't want to catch whatever's given you those running sores. - Fuck your network and the horse it rode in on. - about a million other vulgar things I could think of. but instead, I said: "Then I'll squash you like a bug," which seemed to me to be a proportionate, non-vulgar, measured, I'm-the-bigger-person response to a pretty off-the-graph, vulgar, and irresponsible tirade. > Peter is doing wonders for inter-provider relations. What do >y'all say that the rest of us follow the older, more friendly model, >instead of trying to kill each other? I didn't start it, and I'm not the one who made the threat. It is big Ron who apparently wants to kill me/AGIS. And I just don't stand around and take crap from people. > Sure, a lot of us are in competition. From today's speech, it >seems that AGIS is is more competition than the rest of us. Competition is either good or bad, pick one. Based on the grip CAIS has on the DC market, I'd guess CAIS was founded based on the idea that competition is good. My relationship with Bob Gibson has always been cordial. > But personally, if I were a small or mid-size provider, I'd rather >buy service from somebody that I've seen to be in /friendly/ competition >with their peers -- that way, once I got big enough to strike out on my >own, I could stay friendly with my old provider on a peer instead of a >customer level.

Then get an email account at AOL. I consider you to be speaking for CAIS. There's a very serious issue here for CAIS, which is that a man purporting to be its president/owner/whatever acted quite irresponsibly. The way to get even with AGIS, if that's what he needs to do, is to build a bigger better network and win over our customers, not 'fuck' the AGIS network, with all the consequences that suggested action implies for our customers. In light of Ron's comment to me, I think it would be in the best interest of AGIS's customers to email or call Mr. Ron Burleson of CAIS/CGX (email address conveniently cc'd above by JDF) and ask him how he intends to fuck AGIS (by SYN flooding or other denial of service attack, physically damaging colocates, or what). When he doesn't respond, bury his office with calls and mail, or even better, track him down at IETF or the next NANOG, get him into a corner, and demand to know why he didn't return your calls and mail.

The Cidr Report
by Tony Bates 25 Oct '96

25 Oct '96

This is an auto-generated mail on Fri Oct 25 12:00:01 PDT 1996 It is not checked before it leaves my workstation. However, hopefully you will find this report interesting and will take the time to look through this to see if you can improve the amount of aggregation you perform. The report is split into sections: 0) General Status List the route table history for the last week, list any possibly bogus routes seen and give some status on ASes. 1) Gains by aggregating at the origin AS level This lists the "Top 30" players who if they decided to aggregate their announced classful prefixes at the origin AS level could make a significant difference in the reduction of the current size of the Internet routing table. This calculation does not take into account the inclusion of holes when forming an aggregate so it is possible even larger reduction should be possible. 2) Weekly Delta A summary of the last weeks changes in terms of withdrawn and added routes. Please note that this is only a snapshot but does give some indication of ASes participating in CIDR. Clearly, it is generally a good thing to see a large amont of withdrawls. 3) Interesting aggregates Interesting here means not an aggregate made as a set of classful routes. Thanks to xara.net for giving me access to their routing tables once a day. Please send any comments about this report directly to me.

I joined this list back when there was a good reason. Agis had some serious problems, and still are not problem free. But these kind of attacks are unneeded, useless and time wasting. Agis has improved dramtically - I wonder about the need for a list *like this*. The problem with unsubscibing is that it's like a soap opera - hard to stop watching... but I guess I should have better things to do. Well written response Peter - I regret having to unsubscribe as this is the only time I get to hear from you - but please keep improving, growing, and good luck with Gordy. BTW - I'm writing this after just having recovered from a serious Agis outage, caused by a mistake on their end. To their credit, they hung in there and got an honest mistake fixed (specifically Paula) and we're up again. I guess I could blast them like some others seem to need to, but why? We all make mistakes, we're all growing fast, and this stuff ain't easy...
