for various reasons, we weren't able to gather appropriate resources to multicast sessions on the mbone during the conference. however, we've decided to video tape sessions and then we can dump the recordings to disk in whatever format people deem appropriate. one idea which i think would work ok is saving in real video format. any other preferences or ideas from folks? -brett

Looks like that remove request worked great...for the spammers. They've now got our number.

The Cidr Report
by Tony Bates 24 Oct '97

24 Oct '97

This is an auto-generated mail on Fri Oct 24 12:00:00 PDT 1997 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is possible even larger reduction should be possible. 2) Weekly Delta A summary of the last weeks changes in terms of withdrawn and added routes.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.

NAP Architecture
by Vijay Gill 24 Oct '97

24 Oct '97

Anyone willing to speak forth and give notes of their experience in setting up a NAP. Questions we have in mind are: Go with a Digital GIGAswitch/ATM or FDDI? Or should we go for a GSR 12000? The very high traffic users will be put directly on ports on the GIGAswitch or GSR. The others will be sharing FDDI. thanks Vijay Gill |The (paying) customer is always right. wrath(a)cs.umbc.edu, vijay(a)umbc.edu | - Piercarlo Grandi http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~vijay | Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get These are my opinions only. | sucked into jet engines.

I contacted Cscent.net and let them know that it would not be a wise move on their part to let any more of their customers send these kinds of emails to the NANOG mailing list. He agreed and massmania.com no longer has an account with Cscent.net.

Reminder for Phoenix NANOG
by Rodney Joffe 24 Oct '97

A quick reminder before you pack... We have ethernet connectivity and power for everyone...... Roamabouts all over, and 10baseT ports and power outlets at most seats. There will also be tables around the entire perimeter of the main hall, but first come, first served (except for sob!). So bring your laptops. You'll also have your choice of DHCP, or fixed IPs, so make sure you have dhcp drivers. See you on Sunday or Monday. Rodney Joffe Genuity Inc., a Bechtel company http://www.genuity.net

It looks like the FDDI link between gigaswitches is approaching saturation : http://207.53.84.41/MAE/west.gigalink.overlay.html > An ET when that may be resolved? > >Also, the 'upgrade' at MAE-EAST that dropped the Gigaswitch traffic from 1.2G >to 0.5G/s, is that being viewed as a problem?
