Centurylink\Lumen
by Mike Hammett 29 Apr '22

29 Apr '22

There's a nearby Lumen route (originally Digital Teleport) where they have built their route to someone else's network where they've built a POP between their own construction and that third party dark fiber provider. That dark fiber provider is friendly. Knowing what they've built out in other places (compared to the number of strands available on the route), I was looking to utilize that lateral to get into the Centurylink POP from the dark fiber network. They've more or less said it doesn't exist and that it'd be $100k for the privilege of paying them more than I'm paying anyone else for a wave. I know it exists because they have no other way out. I'm hoping to find someone in Centurylink\Lumen with a clue that can look up a POP, look at what cables are actually there, strand counts, how big their IRU is, identify excess assets and let me use them to overpay them for service. Why I'm so specifically wanting Lumen is there are very limited options on the route I'm asking for. I'm already doing business with the others, so I'd like some entity diversity. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP

Central place to register usages of various IP space?
by Drew Weaver 29 Apr '22

29 Apr '22

Hello, I had a user complain to me this morning about something called "DoubleCounter" which I guess is a Discord bot that supposedly identifies who is a "real person" and who is a "bot" or a "vpn". While some part of any commercial network could potentially be "cloud computing" and as such could be used for a VPN, other parts of the network obviously aren't and are eyeballs. The thing that is basically always true is that no commercial network is mixing cloud computing and eye ball users in the same blocks of IP addresses. I guess where this might be a grey area is Windows VMs on Azure where yes they are both eyeballs and potentially VPN users. So is there a central place where we're supposed to register what specific subnets are used for so that these services can pull from that? It seems like every day a new one of these "verification" services pops up and having to deal with each one of them individually is becoming a challenge. I know Google has a feature where you can just drop a txt file to influence their Geolocation which seems to work well. Let me know if you are aware of anything like this? -Drew

FCC to Consider New Rules to Combat International Scam Robocalls
by Sean Donelan 29 Apr '22

29 Apr '22

I've noticed a few (small number) of robocalls have started spoofing international phone numbers instead of local phone numbers. I don't know if this is because telephone gateways are doing a better job at blocking neighbor caller ID spoofing -- or something else. https://www.fcc.gov/document/fcc-consider-new-rules-combat-international-sc… WASHINGTON, April 27, 2022 [...] The new rules, if adopted at the FCC’s May 19 Open Meeting, would require gateway providers to participate in robocall mitigation, including blocking efforts, take responsibility for illegal robocall campaigns on their networks, cooperate with FCC enforcement efforts, and quickly respond to efforts to trace illegal robocalls to their source. Under the proposed Report and Order, non-compliance by a gateway provider would result in that provider being removed from the Robocall Mitigation Database and subject to mandatory blocking by other network participants, essentially ending its ability to operate.

Sabotage: several severed cables at the origin of a major internet outage in France
by Sean Donelan 28 Apr '22

28 Apr '22

Multiple physical cable cuts in multiple diverse locations in France. Several networks that connect the internet infrastructures of major French cities were cut overnight, in a short interval. A state source evokes with "the Obs" a "coordinated malicious act", which confirms SFR and Free affected. An investigation has been opened. https://www.nouvelobs.com/faits-divers/20220427.OBS57722/plusieurs-cables-s…

Dark\Conduit Pricing
by Mike Hammett 26 Apr '22

26 Apr '22

ISP-Bandwidth used to be full of this kind of conversation. I'm not sure if anything ever replaced it. Where would be a good place to go to get the pulse of where the industry is at on dark fiber\empty conduit pricing? I understand that YMMV with supply and demand. Going into a major facility would be highly desirable, but may also have a lot of competition, depending on the Z location. In the middle of nowhere might be really expensive because no one else is there... or really cheap because it's on a competitive route. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest-IX http://www.midwest-ix.com

Seeing a lot of ROUTING-FIB-3-UPD_MSG_TOO_BIG messages today
by Drew Weaver 25 Apr '22

25 Apr '22

Hello everyone, I've seen this a bit in the past with 1-2 routes, but today it's been happening basically all morning with several different routes. ROUTING-FIB-3-UPD_MSG_TOO_BIG I've chased it down from a vendor level and they implied that it is just informational, my question is why do these sort of updates seem to be sent to the Internet's routing table in bursts? Is that a testing thing? Is anyone else seeing this today as well?

Wondering if anyone on the list has any experiences with fs.com Ethernet switches that they are willing to share (good or bad)? We're looking for some cost effective L2 only 10Gb-T switches and their S58XX switches have come up as a potential option. Thanks, Rich
