Basically similiar to what http://www.ds3switch.com/ does. Anda makes some boxes that do this. http://www.andanetworks.com/products/ I've had experiences with these (as a user, not an operator), and they seem to work fine. /w

May-June meeting?
by Howard C. Berkowitz 16 Mar '06

16 Mar '06

I've just gotten with a new firm that should let me play at NANOG again. While I probably can't meet the March proposal deadline, will there be lightning presentations again? Two areas of interest for lightning or BOF: Operational aspects of PBX hosting and general movement of ISPs into telephony More on emergency communications, especially software that complements the 911 operations system, where there are little-known North American standard software packages (DM-Services)

Wiltel has gone pink.
by Jo Rhett 16 Mar '06

16 Mar '06

This morning we have started receive an abundance of spam from Wiltel customers, pointing boldly back to websites hosted in Wiltel space. OrgAbuseHandle: WAC18-ARIN OrgAbuseName: Wiltel Abuse Contact OrgAbusePhone: +1-918-547-2000 OrgAbuseEmail: abuse(a)wiltel.com Messages to abuse(a)wiltel.com are being rejected. This phone number goes to their "conferencing group", which doesn't know what 'abuse' is, or even what an IP network is. I went through 4 levels of management, and was informed that they no longer had an abuse team -- that this was disbanded in a recent reorganization. In short, it would appear that Wiltel is now selling pink contracts. -- Jo Rhett senior geek SVcolo : Silicon Valley Colocation

Umm, which backbone, AT&T (legacy), SBCIS or PBNI? I'm so confused.

DNS TTL adherence
by Thurman, Steven 15 Mar '06

Does anyone know if there is a research paper or statistics related to what percentage of DNS servers do not adhere to advertised TTL's? I am looking for some verifiable research on this topic if it is available. Thanks, Steve

Load sharing traffic over 3 circuits - 1 eBGP session
by Jeff Neuffer Jr 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

Hello, I need clarification; appreciate any comments on list or off list. Here is the backdrop, * Our router is a Juniper and our IP transit provider's router is a Cisco. * 1 ebgp session between us. * Between us we have the following circuits, 2 DS3's 1 OC3 (burstable) * Static routing is used with loopback addresses I've setup and used bgp multi-hop for load sharing traffic across multiple links before and I am quite comfortable with it. Here is what I'm being told and what I'm seeking clarification on. I'm told that my router can divert/stop sending traffic over the two slower links when they become saturated (reach capacity), and the remaining circuit (higher bandwidth) can continue to pass existing traffic flows and take on additional traffic flows. Can someone clarify if that is possible? Thanks, Jeff
