IPv6 survey (JANOG 35 IPv6 session)
by MAWATARI Masataka 09 Jan '15

09 Jan '15

Hi all, JANOG will have a session "Why don't we want to deploy IPv6?" in JANOG 35 meeting next month. It will focus on IPv6 deployment of the contents providers in Japan. To help us make this session better, we carry out a questionnaire survey to the service providers. It would be great if you could fill out the following questionnaire: https://www.janog.gr.jp/meeting/janog35/program/ipv6/ipv6_form_en/ Your co-operation will be appreciated. We will make a good use out of the survey information in order to improve this session. We'll update you with more details about JANOG 35 meeting through the following page. http://www.janog.gr.jp/en/index.php?JANOG35_Meeting Happy Holidays! -- Japan Internet Exchange MAWATARI Masataka <mawatari(a)jpix.ad.jp>

Re: Office 365 Expert
by Joel M Snyder 09 Jan '15

09 Jan '15

>My suggested rule of thumb if you can't actually measure the traffic >in advance for your population: count the number of >workstation devices that will be your network, >figure at least 0.5 Megabit of WAN for each typical business >user workstation or laptop. I can't help but laugh (laughing with, not laughing at--all due respect to the NA part of NANOG) at this. I've been spending the last 4 years working on various UN networks where getting 0.5Mb of bandwidth to a site can be a challenge, and 4 Mbit/second for an office of 8 users is an unaffordable luxury. And these are sites where the end users want to move to Office 365. We've done a bit of testing, and one of the issues with O365 is that O365 is a BIG thing and you have to decide which slice of O365 you are calling "O365" at a particular site. For some people, that's just "outsourced Exchange" (in which case we would allocate 30K-50Kbps per office user downstream bandwidth, and drop in a WAN Opt box plus do some shenanigans to break into the HTTPS through proxy). For other people, O365 is the whole "nothing is on my hard disk (but cache)" thing, plus Lync (not just voice, but voice+video). Those folks really are going to require major bandwidth; this is where numbers like 512K/simultaneous user make more sense. You can excuse (or at least explain) Microsoft's lack of benchmarks and guidance because of the complexity of O365 and also because they have the sort of North American viewpoint that makes it hard for them to understand high latency/low bandwidth pipes. They try hard, but often just don't get it because of the amazing resources and richness available to a company of that size. I had a great conversation with them about 3 years ago about Exchange and AD forest design where they were strongly advocating centralizing everything in data centers, rather than pushing anything like a DC or mailbox server out to a branch office. When I asked about the bandwidth required, they said that it was "not much." Pressed for details, they said "we do it ourselves, and it hardly impacts the bandwidth on our most poorly-connected offices." Pressed even further, it turns out that a T3/E3 is the lowest link they would consider acceptable for an office. (My total upstream bandwidth budget at one agency for 100 offices and 9,000 users in 24 timezones is less than a single T3... Thanks Microsoft!) Anyway, not adding much to this conversation since it's clear that Bob is asking in the context of "bandwidth is cheap, fast, and inexpensive," but I couldn't help but giggle at the kinds of numbers you guys are throwing around here for people to read email and work on spreadsheets. jms -- Joel M Snyder, 1404 East Lind Road, Tucson, AZ, 85719 Senior Partner, Opus One Phone: +1 520 324 0494 jms(a)Opus1.COM http://www.opus1.com/jms

Fwd: whois server features
by shawn wilson 09 Jan '15

09 Jan '15

Is there a list of NIC (and other popular whois server) features (what can be searched on) and what data they provide (and what title they give it)? A quick search yields: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-358 https://www.arin.net/resources/whoisrws/whois_diff.html https://www.apnic.net/apnic-info/whois_search/using-whois/searching/query-o… (In declining order of information - I also couldn't find the info for AFRINIC queries) I also couldn't find information on what fields they have (and obviously how they map to one another). There are also a few other whois servers around that I have no idea about: https://www.opensource.apple.com/source/adv_cmds/adv_cmds-149/whois/whois.c

something strange about bgp community
by Song Li 08 Jan '15

08 Jan '15

Hi everyone, Today when I check one route in Routeviews I find something strange as follows: route-views>sh ip bgp 176.108.0.0 BGP routing table entry for 176.108.0.0/19, version 23405621 Paths: (33 available, best #28, table default) Not advertised to any peer Refresh Epoch 1 202018 35320 35320 57800 5.101.110.2 from 5.101.110.2 (5.101.110.2) Origin IGP, localpref 100, valid, external Community: 702:120 2914:429 20485:52990 20485:53990 20485:54040 20485:54050 47541:10001 rx pathid: 0, tx pathid: 0 the AS-Path is "202018 35320 35320 57800" but the community is 702:120 2914:429 20485:52990 .... According to RFC 1997, the community format is AA:NN and AA means the AS#. Here, AS702, AS2914 and AS20485 do not appear in the AS-Path and as a result they should not appear in the community. Could anybody tell me what's the reason they do appear in the community of this route?

MPLS VPN design - RR in forwarding path?
by Marcin Kurek 08 Jan '15

08 Jan '15

Hi everyone, I'm reading Randy's Zhang BGP Design and Implementation and I found following guidelines about designing RR-based MPLS VPN architecture: - Partition RRs - Move RRs out of the forwarding path - Use a high-end processor with maximum memory - Use peer groups - Tune RR routers for improved performance. Since the book is a bit outdated (2004) I'm curious if these rules still apply to modern SP networks. What would be the reasoning behind keeping RRs out of the forwarding path? Is it only a matter of performance and stability? Thanks, Marcin

Solicitation for Statements of Interest regarding Root KSK Rollover
by Edward Lewis 08 Jan '15

08 Jan '15

(I am not sure if this appeared on this list before, so just to be sure, perhaps yet another posting of this announcement:) ICANN, as the IANA functions operator, in cooperation with Verisign as the Root Zone Maintainer and the National Telecommunications Information Administration (NTIA) as the Root Zone Administrator, together known as the Root Zone Management (RZM) partners, seek to develop a plan for rolling the DNS root zone key-signing key (KSK). The KSK is used to sign the root zone zone-signing key (ZSK), which in turn is used to DNSSEC-sign the Internet’s root zone. The Root Zone Partners are soliciting five to seven volunteers from the community to participate in a Design Team to develop the Root Zone KSK Rollover Plan (“The Plan”). These volunteers along with the RZM partners will form the Design Team to develop The Plan. Individuals interested in volunteering approximately 5 hours per week for the Design Team should consult the announcement: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ksk-soi-11dec14-en.pdf and submit their Statement of Interest to ksk-rollover-soi(a)icann.org no later than January 16, 2015.
