Has anyone tried changing the vendor ID of an SFP+ with one of these? https://sfptotal.com/ I am highly intrigued and skeptical. Jason

Why the internal network delays, Gmail?
by Nate Metheny 21 Jun '17

21 Jun '17

Help (and hi)! I work in higher education and we've been experiencing problems with Google delaying or queuing email for delivery to our domain. Here's some truncated email headers: ** Example 1: X-Received: by 10.237.55.65 with SMTP id i59mr10986018qtb.62.1472137448952; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 08:04:08 -0700 (PDT) Received: by mail-qt0-f175.google.com with SMTP id u25so27419242qtb.1 for <@***>; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 12:05:46 -0700 (PDT) ** Example 2: X-Received: by 10.36.1.75 with SMTP id 72mr5275579itk.40.1472130531887; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 06:08:51 -0700 (PDT) Received: by mail-it0-f48.google.com with SMTP id x131so289116132ite.0 for <@***>; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 11:50:42 -0700 (PDT) In both of these examples, these emails haven't even left Google's internal network yet; I'm getting blamed for these delays, however there is no delay in receiving these emails after they leave Google's network. Are other people having this same problem? I've tested delivery to my network from many outside sources and all SMTP requests go through without delay; this issue seems be exclusive to Google-hosted and Gmail accounts and domains. -- Nate <natemetheny(a)gmail.com>nate(a)dopedesign.com

Google Cloud and IX - Traffic behavior
by Alain Hebert 21 Jun '17

21 Jun '17

Hi, Anyone aware of different traffic behavior depending if the target goes through normal peering than through an exchanges google exists in? We're facing a weird issue where the same GCLD Instance can upload up to 200Mbps (Ref 1) if the target path goes through, lets say TorIX, but cannot get more than 20Mbps on similar hosts (8 of them) sittings on our peering links. PS; Those sames hosts get up to their link limit ( 1Gbps ) between each others and others test points we have; PS: Wireshark capture show nothing abnormal; PS: Links aren't congested, and so on... Ref 1 - 200Mbps is on a link rate-limited to 300Mbps. Its my only test point with a TorIX access -- ----- Alain Hebert ahebert(a)pubnix.net PubNIX Inc. 50 boul. St-Charles P.O.

But what foundation do you have for asserting that switch hardware is any different in this regard? I can say that we are using 80 km modules in various hardware without any issues. I admittedly do not use any high power modules in servers, but I will need better evidence than this to assume that it would not work just fine.

FTLX1471D3BCV (10km SM) - up to 285mA FTLX1671D3BCL (40km SM) - up to 400mA, and thumb rule in electronics it is better to not exceed 50% of max specs of designed max current, as for many parts it is stated for 25C & etc operating conditions. I expect it might work, but noone knows how long, and how reliable, if it is not cooled very well.

Depending on whether you're registered with personal or corporate email, and how much control you have over the platform in question, you can distinguish the source with fairly high reliability. Just generate a new 'bob+nanog70(a)bobsdomain.org' style address for every event you register for, every website that requires a contact address, every mailing list, ... If you're concerned that people will twig, and use the naked 'bob@' address, you could work with multiple names including a hash that look like internal nonsense, e.g. 'bob34adf@', or block the un-plussed 'bob@' entirely and use e.g. 'robert@' for people you trust to have your real, non-circumstance-specific email address. I know people who do this, it really depends how much you care about being able to trace and block people who are either scraping or re-selling your details. Regards, Tim.

Vendors spamming NANOG attendees
by Rodney Joffe 20 Jun '17

20 Jun '17

It seems that more than just a few of us were spammed by Glenn Stern (gstern(a)calient.net) an employee of Calient following NANOG 70. The spammer had the balls to say, in his email: > > We do not know each other. I'm leveraging the attendee list for NANOG to reach out and raise awareness of the value of OCS (Optical Circuit Switching) in the data center and in particular, the Carrier Neutral Hotel where we've been active with next generation MeetMeRoom discussions. He does not show as an attendee at NANOG, but another executive, David Altstaetter, daltstaetter(a)calient.net did register, and may have even shown up. Hopefully those of you who have traditional community attitudes will show your reaction via your pocketbooks. Maybe its time for the NANOG board and staff to step in, and develop some teeth to use in cases like these? Unless the majority of you members are cool with unfettered spamming of member and attendee lists. In which case, have at it! Rodney
