Hello everyone, The NANOG Mailing List Committee is a group of individuals from the NANOG community who collectively are responsible for ensuring the functioning of the NANOG mailing list as an effective resource for the operations community. The Steering Committee would like to hear from people who are interested in joining the team, volunteering their time and energy to help make the NANOG mailing list better. We are looking for people who care about the NANOG mailing list, who are keen readers of the list, and who have a thorough understanding of NANOG culture. If this sounds like you, we would like to encourage you to volunteer to serve on the committee. As per 7.1.2 of the Charter, the Mailing List Committee must have a minimum of four members. Therefore four positions are available, two positions with terms up for renewal at the end of NANOG 44 in October 2008, and two positions with terms up for renewal at the end of NANOG 47 in October 2009. To volunteer, please send your expression of interest to <steering(a)nanog.org> containing a brief summary of how you think the NANOG list could be better, how you think you could help make a difference, and which term length you'd like to serve. The deadline for responses is by the end of 23rd May 2008, and we plan to select the new Mailing List Committee by the end of the following week. Many thanks! philip (for the SC) _______________________________________________ NANOG-announce mailing list NANOG-announce(a)nanog.org http://mailman.nanog.org/mailman/listinfo/nanog-announce

Their non-stop routing feature is something that other vendors are barely starting to support, years after they started doing it. Now they are ----------------------------------------------- This IS a very nice feature and works well. A cisco terminal server was sending lots of random data (well not so random, it looked like it was sending a MOTD) to the console on a couple of 7x50s, which caused the CPMs to reset repeatedly, but still no packets were lost. Very cool! scott ---------------------------

The Alcatel 7750 is the best MPLS edge box period. It blows away the traditional competition by a country mile. The quality of the product is really superb. Imagine life is a software release when on completion of your own type approval the software does what it says on the tin? Not even minor bugs -> no bugs nada ziltch negatory nien etc. That life starts when you buy the 7750. The former Timetra team (and the new ALU people) are an excellent bunch of guys to work with. They listen and act but at the same time won't sacrafice the quality of the platform. And if you are still unsure I strongly recommend this box.

What are your thoughts on them? What about Alcatel's MPLS edge routers like the 7x50 products that came from Timetra...anyone have any experience with them? Are they a good product?

However, there is a list for Alcatel: puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp I've been on it for a couple of months, but I have yet to see an email from it. I have been wanting to get discussion going there, so let's take the conversation there. scott ------------------------------------------------
