MAE-East Down better than up?
by Alex Bligh 11 Oct '97

11 Oct '97

I'm sitting here with most of my MAE-East peers down, expecting chaos and packet loss everywhere. However, generally speaking the world seems to be performing far better than with it up. I can reach Microsoft with no packet loss. When MAE-East was up, record was 75% packet loss ("that's normal" was the response). I'd figured all the other IXPs would be congestion hell. Not from here. Is it just me, or is there a moral here ... -- Alex Bligh GX Networks (formerly Xara Networks)

We are also seeing several daily "batch" peer state flaps. The WorldCom NOC reports that @02:30 EDT they will be replacing several switches.

> For emerging technologies (i.e. PNNI, MPOA, IPv6, RSVP) which IGP would > you use OSPF or EIGRP in a cisco enviroment on a global network ? Part of your sentence makes no sense to me. As to which IGP is appropriate, there needs to be a coherent routing architecture before you select an IGP. One size does not fit all. Tony
