Implementation plan and dates for NWI5 - Out-of-region ROUTE(6) objects and removal of ASN authorisation for ROUTE(6) object creation.
by Nathalie Trenaman 19 Jul '18

19 Jul '18

Dear colleagues, In February 2018, the RIPE Database Working Group reached consensus on NWI-5 - creating out of region ROUTE(6) objects in the RIPE Database. We will soon be making changes to the way out-of-region objects are handled in the RIPE Database. It's important that database users are aware of these changes and what they mean: 1. The RIPE Routing Registry will no longer support the creation of out-of-region ROUTE(6) and AUT-NUM objects 2. Existing out-of-region objects will have their "source:” attribute changed to "RIPE-NONAUTH” 3. The creation of ROUTE(6) objects will no longer need authorisation from the ASN holder We will implement these changes in the Release Candidate environment on Thursday, 2 August and go to full production on Tuesday, 4 September. Our implementation plan can be found at: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/db/impact-analysis-for-nwi-5-imple… <https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/db/impact-analysis-for-nwi-5-imple…> The RIPE Database Working Group chairs also wrote a RIPE Labs article that describes the background of NWI-5: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/denis/out-of-region-route-6-and-aut-num-objec… <https://labs.ripe.net/Members/denis/out-of-region-route-6-and-aut-num-objec…> <https://labs.ripe.net/Members/denis/out-of-region-route-6-and-aut-num-objec… <https://labs.ripe.net/Members/denis/out-of-region-route-6-and-aut-num-objec…>> Please contact ripe-dbm(a)ripe.net <mailto:ripe-dbm@ripe.net> if you still have questions after reading the implementation plan.

I suppose in reality it’s no different than any other utility. My home has 200 amp electrical service. Will I ever use 200 amps at one time? Highly highly unlikely. But if my electrical utility wanted to advertise “200 amp service in all homes we supply!” they sure could. Would an electrician be able to test it? I’m sure there is a way somehow. If me and everyone on my street tried to use 200 amps all at the same time, could the infrastructure handle it? Doubtful. But do I on occasion saturate my home fiber 300 mbit synchronous connection? Every now and then yes, but rarely. Although if I’m paying for 300 and not getting it, my ISP will be hearing from me. If my electrical utility told me “hey, you can upgrade to 500 amp service for no additional charge” would I do it? Sure, what the heck. If my water utility said “guess what? You can upgrade to a 2-inch water line at no additional charge!” would I do it? Probably yeah, why not? Would I ever use all that capacity on $random_utility at one time? Of course not. But nice to know it’s there if I ever need it. ---- Andy Ringsmuth andy(a)newslink.com News Link – Manager Technology, Travel & Facilities 2201 Winthrop Rd., Lincoln, NE 68502-4158 (402) 475-6397 (402) 304-0083 cellular &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& ---- Andy Ringsmuth andy(a)newslink.com 5609 Harding Dr. Lincoln, NE 68521 (402) 304-0083 cellular

I don't think you understand the gravity of the in-home interference issue. Unfortunately, neither does the IEEE. It doesn't need to be in lock-step, but if a significant number of homes have issues getting over 100 megabit wirelessly, I'm not sure we need to be concerned about 10 gigabit to the home. I am well aware of the wireless world and Ubiquiti. I've been using Ubiquiti (among other brands) for over 10 years and have been a hardware beta tester for several of them. The 640 kb of RAM statements, computers in home statements, 56 kbps days statements... are all tangential at best. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest-IX http://www.midwest-ix.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Greco" <jgreco(a)ns.sol.net> To: "Mike Hammett" <nanog(a)ics-il.net> Cc: nanog(a)nanog.org Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2018 11:11:29 AM Subject: Re: Proving Gig Speed On Tue, Jul 17, 2018 at 10:47:45AM -0500, Mike Hammett wrote: > We already supply far, far greater than the actual consumer usage (versus want or demand). > > Consumers are moving away from wired connections in the home for wireless connections (for obvious mobility and ease of setup where there isn't existing wired infrastructure). > > Consumers are moving away from power desktops and laptops to phones, tablets, and purpose-built appliances. > > My in-laws have a Comcast service that's >100 megabit/s. The 2.4 and 5 GHz noise floors are so high (-50 to -75 dB, depending on channel and location within the house) that unless you're in the same room, you're not getting more than 10 megabit/s on wireless. On a wire, Comcast delivers full data rate.

And yet if we had had those attitudes back in the days of 56kbps, ... Your argument is flawed because it implies that this is not an issue that can be addressed. Populating a house with more than a single crap-grade built-into-the-CPE radio is certainly possible, and tech people have been using gear such as Ubiquiti to do so for years now, but more recently mesh systems have become readily available as well and are even sold at Best Buy and other electronics stores. There is no need for ISP speeds to be in exact lock-step with wifi speeds. Advances in one will drive advances in the other. Eventually. ...

Comcast outage Southwest Washington?
by Aaron C. de Bruyn 19 Jul '18

19 Jul '18

There a Comcast outage affecting a few of my locations in SW Washington state. We initially had an estimate of 3:26 PM for service restoration. That got bumped to 7 PM. Now the phone system isn't giving an ETR and the phone system says there are excessive hold times. I'm guessing it's a fiber cut. Can anyone provide some insight? Thanks, -A

(perhaps off topic, but) Microwave Towers
by Miles Fidelman 17 Jul '18

17 Jul '18

Hi Folks, I find myself driving down Route 66. On our way through Arizona, I was surprised by what look like a lot of old-style microwave links. They pretty much follow the East-West rail line - where I'd expect there's a lot of fiber buried. Struck me as somewhat interesting. It also struck me that folks here might have some comments.
