Dampening on Juniper routers
by John Fraizer 09 Dec '00

09 Dec '00

Can anyone relate any information with regards to how Juniper routers differ from Cisco in respect to BGP dampening? We are seeing issues with one of our peers who is using an M20. If the BGP session is cycled, that peer is damping our routes for aprox 1hr. We don't have this problem with any other peers, all of whom are using Cisco products. There has to be some huge difference in the way that the Juniper is calculating the penalty and decay. Any help is greatly appreciated. --- John Fraizer EnterZone, Inc

MCI outage in Wy.
by BillT＠Mahagonny.com 09 Dec '00

09 Dec '00

Has anyone heard any details on the MCI outage in Wyoming? I've heard that they lost over 20 OC-48s that were connecting the west coast. I still have a number of sites down, but I'm not going to hassle them for status. That must have been one big backhoe. -- BillT(a)Mahagonny.com | PGP KeyID#: 0xECB1EE6F -By the year 2019, one third of the worlds population will be Elvis impersonators.

I am getting REALLY sick and tired of Interliant stealing contact information from the NSI whois database and printing them on postcards for postal spam (and I sure as hell didn't give NSI any permission whatsoever in selling my contact info ; I know, they've been selling it lately; whether I want their spam or not is ultimately InterLIARs concern though). As far as as ethics standards for Digex/Intermedia is concerned, my mind is clouded right now, but Interliant will never find consideration at places where I am at the helm. That same behavior has cost Savvis some substantial contract(s) this year, from DSL lines over T1's to a DS-3, new ones and extensions alike.

The Cidr Report
by Tony Bates 08 Dec '00

08 Dec '00

This is an auto-generated mail on Fri Dec 8 12:00:00 PST 2000 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.
