Segment Routing for L2VPN?
by Jason Lixfeld 21 Sep '15

21 Sep '15

Hello! I've been doing some reading recently on Segment Routing. By all accounts, it seems that the (only?) implementation for SR supports L3VPN. Am I dumb and just missing the L2VPN bits, or is L3VPN simply the extent of the first generation? Sent from my iPhone

DDoS auto-mitigation best practices (for eyeball networks)
by Frank Bulk 21 Sep '15

21 Sep '15

Could the community share some DDoS auto-mitigation best practices for eyeball networks, where the target is a residential broadband subscriber? I'm not asking so much about the customer communication as much as configuration of any thresholds or settings, such as: - minimum traffic volume before responding (for volumetric attacks) - minimum time to wait before responding - filter percentage: 100% of the traffic toward target (or if volumetric, just a certain percentage)? - time before mitigation is automatically removed - and if the attack should recur shortly thereafter, time to respond and remove again - use of an upstream provider(s) mitigation services versus one's own mitigation tools - network placement of mitigation (presumably upstream as possible) - and anything else I ask about best practice for broadband subscribers on eyeball networks because it's different environment than data center and hosting environments or when one's network is being used to DDoS a target. Regards, Frank

I've asked Runscope (a monitoring service we're using for a few things, with locations in AWS and Rackspace), and they've confirmed my findings - there's unusually high latency somewhere around the AWS facility in Oregon, started last night, but they say it's "getting better". -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

Turns out the log-in screen is the last last sign or life--submitting username and password gets you a never-ending throbber. How weird. -- sed quis custodiet ipsos custodes? (Juvenal)

Sign-On Letter to the Court in the FCC's Net Neutrality Case
by Jeremy Gillula 20 Sep '15

20 Sep '15

Dear colleagues, Apologies in advance for the spam, but as many of you know, several large ISPs and their industry organizations are challenging the FCC's recent net neutrality order in court. Since the outcome of this case could have real consequences for how Internet services work in the future, I'm writing you today to ask you to sign on to a letter that EFF and ACLU have prepared for the court. The letter explains several key engineering concepts that are vital to understanding how the Internet actually operates (e.g. the end-to-end principle, the layered network stack, how IP routing works, etc.). It also stays away from legal arguments, and instead focuses on the technical arguments for how net neutrality has been key to the design and operation of the Internet since its beginning. It also lays out the technical consequences that could occur should the FCC's order be struck down, focusing on how large ISPs could transform the Internet from a system where innovation can take place without permission to one where ISPs get to dictate what protocols and services their customers are allowed to use. /*If you're willing to sign on and help today, please email me directly (off list) */and I will be happy to share a copy of the letter for you to review before you agree to sign on. The more signatures we can get, the more likely the court is to take notice. All it takes is an email. Please help us make sure the court gets the message: from an engineering point of view, neutrality and openness are fundamental to the way the Internet operates today.

SMS Gateway
by Graham Johnston 20 Sep '15

20 Sep '15

Today we use a product from MultiTech Systems call MultiModem iSMS to send SMS text messages from our monitoring system to our on call staff. This is a 2G product and we need to replace it soon. I know there are more generic cellular modems that can do texting if you are willing to put in the effort, the product we use currently though has a simple HTTP based API specifically to send SMS. Is anybody out there using something similar that can work on 3G or 4G networks?

Transit Options in the UK?
by Gary T. Giesen 19 Sep '15

19 Sep '15

I have a customer who's trying to decide whether to renew their existing transit contract or not for a POP they have in the UK and wondering what's good for transit options out there. Looking for: - Good peering/reachability to other networks (I've already started perusing the LINX peer list) - Decent BGP community set (at a minimum RTBH and local pref, obviously the richer the better) - v6 support - Own the last mile a bonus Can anyone offer any recommendations? Cheers, GTG
