Hi, Just wondering if anyone here I can discuss offline about Google Global Cache? I am interested in knowing how does the cache selection process takes place (i.e. how does Google know to which cache to redirect a client). I would also like to know what if I have 2 upstreams who both have GGCs installed in their network, how would the selection process takes place. Thank you very much in advance. Regards, -- -nathan

FWIW, I've never had an issue with third party optics. Particularly if they're OEM Finisar, JDSU, etc...

Typical warranty for generic DWDM transceivers

Dear nanog group We are currently evaluating the use of generic third party optics (SFP+ and XFP) for 40Kms and 80Kms applications from vendors like NHR and Champion One and I was wondering if someone in the group has experience using optics from these vendors. My concern is about quality/reliability. They are suppose to provide lifetime warranty, however as far as I know the life time for DWDM optics is between 3 to 5 years. Could someone share their experience with using generic optics for DWDM applications? Thank you

The top 10 domains on the firewall stats (content filter) are apple and f*cebook domains. So when you plan filtering out apple and/or f*cebook you might also shut down the hotspot, because for most users the 'net' then seems to be br0ken. > [*] I've actually see someone type "www.yahoo.com" into the Google search > box, then use Yahoo! to search for something.

I disagree categorically with that. Turning off Google affects at most my use of electric maps--they still have a better setup than any of the others I have tried. I use Bing, but there are lots of other engines around--some of them a lot more honest. The scary thing to me is that since most of the medicos I see have gone to an Obamacare-compliant records system and all I see is people's backsides at their computer terminal as they use a Google dialog box for most of what they do. -- Requiescas in pace o email Two identifying characteristics of System Administrators: Ex turpi causa non oritur actio Infallibility, and the ability to learn from their mistakes.
