annoucing routes
by steve＠altrina.exodus.net 25 Oct '98

25 Oct '98

It looks like eu.net or supernet (possibly both qwest, i dont remember) are doing the leaking.. sprint customers are seeing a lot of routing problems and possible disconnectivity, I've contacted sprint and they are now working on the issue. No ETA at this time.. -- Steven O. Noble -- Sr. Backbone Engineer, Exodus Communications (EXDS) -- Work:408.346.2333 -- All my love to the Canadian Mooing Frog.

routes have been withdrawn, it looks like sprint has the issue under control

It looks like Sprint has the issue under control (or possibly eu.net/supernet has resolved it). This will be my final update/mail. Thanks for your patience. -Steve -- Steven O.

Anyone know of a good place to check on the historical data about how many times a route has flapped in the last X amount of time?

Re: Actions to quiet the Smurf amplifiers?
by Phil Howard 23 Oct '98

23 Oct '98

It doesn't seem to be working for me. What version of IOS does this new feature show up in? Why hasn't it been mentioned before? Or is this not similar enough to be usable to block smurf and other forgery?

Wireless LAN access in Atlanta
by Kevin Oberman 23 Oct '98

23 Oct '98

The NANOG 14 web pages says that 802.11 wireless LANs will be available in the hotel. A review of 802.11 PCMCIA cards in Communications News found that only the BreezeCom and Raylink products would inter-operate. There is no indication of the manufacturer(s) of the units so that we can bring compatible cards. It does say that additional information will be posted the week before the show, but I'll already be on the road setting up the networking for SC98 in Orlando, so it will be too late to make sure I have an appropriate card.
