We had the same issue on our NTP server pointing to tick.usno.navy.mil. Set date back to year 2000.

We had our server times update to the year 2000 at around 3:30 MT, then revert back to 2012. Thanks, Van

I think this would be true if they offered some form of paid peering. Google want's a good fast route to your customers, And your customers want a good fast route to Google. IF Google ran its transit at or near congestion. This could degrade your customers performance. After so long, You'd contact Google and attempt to troubleshoot. And they would say if you want good peering with them, You should pay them to peer. Where you could control just how much traffic was on your port and expand it if needed. Pretty sure this was Comcast and level3/Netflix did. But Comcast had the winning leverage (more eyeballs) in the discussion. But, I don't think Google does this. My knowledge on AS15169 is limited. But I recall them having a very strict peering policy.

Google/Youtube problems
by Daniel Suchy 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

Hello, for approx. last 14 days we're seeing problems with video playing from youtube (page loads without problems, but player shows error), and also other applications like maps are having problems. As these problems were only for some of prefixes announced out of AS 8251, we recognised that as problem with Google's CDN and reported it to Google. As workaround, filtering affected prefixes from peering in Prague partially helped. We already tried communicate problem with Google from the beginning (in our network, around 50000 end users are directly afected), and they're claiming, that problem is related only to our network and there's no global issue. But similar issues we're seeing from some other networks, which are peering with Google and have nothing common with our AS8251. We sent emails to Google NOC/NST, also tried to phone them about the problems, but according to end-user claims, problem persist. Problem is isolated only to peak hours, when something seems to be saturated. If I recall past optional IPv6 from Google, they said: "It is very important to us that our users always receive the best possible experience". But majority of end users still uses IPv4 and we're seeing problems here - and response is minimal. At least information about cause of the problem and expected time for problem resolution. Is anyone else seeing similar problems with Google/Youtube? With regards, Daniel

25Mbps vs 4 Mbps
by Glen Kent 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

Hi, The service provider(s) pipe that takes all web traffic from my laptop to the central servers (assume youtube) remain same whether i take a 4Mbps or a 25Mbps connection from my service provider. This means that the internet connection that i take from my service provider only affects the last mile -- from my home network to my service providers first access router. Given this, would one really see a 6 times improvement in a 25Mbps connection over a 4Mbps connection? I assume that the service providers rate limit the traffic much more aggressively in a 4Mbps connection. But this would only matter if the traffic from my youtube server is greater than 4Mbps, which i suspect would be the case. The question then is that how does going for a higher BW connection from the service provider help? Glen

Generic IP Connectivity Provisioning Profile
by mohamed.boucadair＠orange.com 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

Dear all, Ron suggested I share this document in this mailing list in order to assess whether there is interest from the nanog community to carry out this effort within IETF. If you are supporting this effort, please voice it. Your feedback will help Ron in making a decision to AD-sponsor this document in the IETF. This is an effort trying to capture and expose the IP connectivity service provided by the network layer to upper services, to adjacent networks, offered/delivered to customers, etc. The document focuses on the definition of the CPP itself and does not discuss for instance how this is translated into configuration data/policies to be enforced in underlying nodes. Abstract: This document describes the Connectivity Provisioning Profile (CPP) and proposes a CPP Template to capture IP connectivity requirements to be met in the context of delivery of services (e.g. Voice over IP or IP TV) which are to be plugged upon an IP/MPLS infrastructure. The CPP defines the set of IP transfer parameters to be supported by the underlying IP/MPLS transport network together with a reachability scope and bandwidth/capacity needs. Appropriate performance metrics such as one-way delay, one-way delay variation are used to characterize an IP transfer service. Both global and restricted reachability scopes can be captured in the CPP. Having the generic CPP template allows for (1) automating the process of service negotiation and activation, thus accelerating service provisioning, (2) setting the (traffic) objectives of Traffic Engineering functions and service management functions and (3) enriching service and network management systems with 'decision- making' capabilities based on negotiated/offered CPPs. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-boucadair-connectivity-provisioning-… http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-boucadair-connectivity-provisioning-profil… Comments are more than welcome. Cheers, Med
