Router Server problem
by pramod babu G 21 Dec '03

21 Dec '03

hai all, I am simulating an IXP and this has 4 router servers which are connected to the ISP routers. I connected the 4 router server by means of Internal Bgp. This is as shown below IBGP ISP1------ RS1------- RS2 ------ ISP3 | | ISP2------ --------ISP4 Now the routes injected by ISP1 into R1 are received by ISP2. And there is exchange of routes between ISP3 and 4. But the routes send by ISP3 are not seen by ISP1 and ISP2. But RS1 has got those routes in its data base. These routes are not selected as best routes in the RS1 bgpd So to overcome this do u have any suggestions ??

RE: Bandwidth Control Question
by Claydon, Tom 20 Dec '03

Yep. There's plenty of fiber between the two buildings, so we may go that route. Anyone know if there's any easy way to limit bandwidth on the PA-POS-OC3 adapters? Sounds like another job for rate limiting to me... = TC -----Original Message----- From: David Lesher [mailto:wb8foz@nrk.com] Sent: Friday, December 19, 2003 10:56 AM To: nanog(a)merit.edu Subject: Re: Bandwidth Control Question Speaking on Deep Background, the Press Secretary whispered: > > > Roy wrote: > > > Why waste a T3 port.

Co-location facilities in LA
by Mark Prior 20 Dec '03

20 Dec '03

What are people's views on the various co-location options in LA? Unlike most REN's we provide a commodity Internet service as well as an R&E service and are currently looking to build a couple of purely commodity Internet POPs on the west coast (so they don't need connectivity to Abilene but they do need connectivity to commercial transit providers and have peering opportunities). We (think we) have Palo Alto under control so our attention is now turning towards LA. Thanks, Mark.

If possible, order your T-1 from someone that actually has their own cabinets within L3's suite. I have about five DS-3s, an OC-3 and a couple of POTS lines and have never had any major problems with the installs. We've occasionally gotten the bad DLR from a vendor and L3 usually let us know within a couple of days of when we sent them the DLR that there was a problem. -Sean Network Engineering MegaPath Networks Inc.

[OT] Level3, 111 8th
by Charles Sprickman 20 Dec '03

20 Dec '03

Hello, Given that our L3 rep is useless for this information, perhaps another customer of L3 @ 1118th (3rd floor) can help me out. We are ordering our first cross-connect to the meet-me room since I've arrived, and I'm wondering how to specify the location to the vendors. We're dropping a POTS line and a few T1s. Most of the forms I've seen want a suite number, etc. If anyone can supply that info, I'd be most grateful. Bonus points for any extra tips about making things go smoothly in this datacenter. I've heard nasty stories about telcos leaving the demarc in the basement or somewhere else outside the meet-me room... Thanks, Charles -- Charles Sprickman spork(a)inch.com
