Call for Presentations RIPE 68
by Filiz Yilmaz 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

Dear colleagues, Please find the CFP for RIPE 68 below or at https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/cfp/. The deadline for submissions is 2 March 2014. Please also note that speakers do not receive any extra reduction or funding towards the meeting fee at the RIPE Meetings. Kind regards Filiz Yilmaz RIPE PC Chair http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-meetings/pc --------------------- Call for Presentations A RIPE Meeting is an open event where Internet Service Providers, network operators and other interested parties get together. Although the meeting is mostly technical, it is also a chance for people to meet and network with others in their field. RIPE 68 will take place from 12 – 16 May 2014 in Warsaw, Poland. The RIPE Programme Committee (PC) is now seeking content proposals from the RIPE community for the plenary session presentations, BoFs (Birds of a Feather sessions), panels, workshops, tutorials and lightning talks at RIPE 68. The PC is looking for presentations covering topics of network engineering and operations, including but not limited to: • IPv6 deployment • Managing IPv4 scarcity in operations • Commercial transactions of IPv4 addresses • Data centre technologies • Network and DNS operations • Internet governance and regulatory practices • Network and routing security • Content delivery • Internet peering and mobile data exchange Submissions RIPE Meeting attendees are quite sensitive to keeping presentations non-commercial, and product marketing talks are strongly discouraged. Repeated audience feedback shows that the most successful talks focus on operational experience, research results, or case studies. For example, presenters wishing to describe a commercial solution should focus on the underlying technology and not attempt a product demonstration. The RIPE PC accepts proposals for different presentation formats, including plenary session presentations, tutorials, workshops, BoFs (Birds of a Feather sessions) and lightning talks. See the full descriptions of these formats at https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-formats/ Presenters who are proposing a panel or BoF are encouraged to include speakers from several (perhaps even competing) companies and/or a neutral facilitator. In addition to presentations selected in advance for the plenary, the RIPE PC also offers several time slots for “lightning talks”, which are selected immediately before or during the conference. The following general requirements apply: - Proposals for plenary session presentations, BoFs, panels, workshops and tutorials must be submitted for full consideration no later than 2 March 2014, using the meeting submission system at https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/guidelines/. Proposals submitted after this date will be considered on a space-available basis. - Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission system (https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/submission-form/) and can be submitted just days before the RIPE Meeting starts or even during the meeting week. The allocation of lightning talk slots will be announced in short notice – in some cases on the same day but often one day prior to the relevant session. - Presenters should indicate how much time they will require. See more information on time slot allocations per presentation format at https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-formats/ - Proposals for talks will only be considered by the PC if they contain at least draft presentation slides (slides may be updated later on). For panels, proposals must contain a clear description, as well as the names of invited panelists, presenters and moderators. - Due to potential technical issues, it is expected that most, if not all, presenters/panelists will be physically present at the RIPE Meeting. If you have any questions or requests concerning content submissions, please email pc [at] ripe [dot] net. ---------------------

I've been quite happy with the servers I'm renting from OVH (http://www.ovh.com/ca/en/) in their new Montreal data center, which is their entry into the North American market; they've operated in Europe for quite a long time. - Pete --- kamtha(a)ak-labs.net wrote: From: Carlos Kamtha <kamtha(a)ak-labs.net> To: nanog(a)nanog.org Subject: Reliable Dedicated/VPS providers in Canada?

Just a heads up to those attending NANOG in Atlanta. Delta has already cancelled 500 flights for wednesday, and will likely be canceling more. http://www.delta.com/content/www/en_US/traveling-with-us/alerts-and-advisor… You may want to check your reservations on your respective airlines, and reschedule flights and extend your hotel stay here, before everything is sold out. In my particular case, the flights for thursday to my home town were already almost entirely sold out. Regards, -Phil

carrier comparison
by Adam Greene 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

Hi, We're a small ISP / datacenter with a Time Warner fiber-based DIA contract that is coming up for renewal. We're getting much better pricing offers from Cogent, and are finding out what Level 3 can do for us as well. Both providers will use Time Warner fiber for last mile. My questions are: - Will we be sacrificing quality if we spring for Cogent? (yesterday's Cogent/Verizon thread provided some cold chills for my spine) - Is there a risk with contracting a carrier that utilizes another carrier (such as Time Warner) for the last mile? (i.e. if there is a downtime situation, are we going to be caught in a web of confusion and finger-pointing that delays problem resolution)? - How are peoples' experiences with L3 vs TWC? Although I assume everyone on the list would be interested in what others have to say about these questions, out of respect for the carriers in question, I encourage you to email frank opinions off list. Or if there are third party tools or resources you know that I could consult to deduce the answers to these questions myself, they are most welcome. Thanks, Adam

I was going to put my notes from today's talk up at http://nanog.cluepon.net/index.php/Past_Events but discovered the site seems to have gone read-only, and my login doesn't work anymore. If people know what happened to the logins for that site, I'd be happy to add notes for today's talks to the page. Thanks! Matt

Looking for some guidance on creating route objects for ARIN
by Joseph Jenkins 10 Feb '14

10 Feb '14

I am trying to get the routing objects database. However I am getting back failures for the messages that I send in. I am wondering is it possible to get route objects created for the two /24s that I was given from my carriers allocations? If so what is the process to update the route objects database? I have my MNTNERID for my company, but when I use that to try and update the objects and attach them to my AS I am getting a failure. TIA Joe Jenkins
