The real problem is getting hams to stop wearing the cheesy gear with their callsigns all over it, the antenna hat toppers, LED scrolling name badges, and - for the love of everything holy - to put an end to the phrase "HI HI" once and for all. I've had slightly more experience in commercial and public safety comms than I have as a ham, as my elmers (ham radio mentors) worked on commercial radio systems by trade. Now, after working with the ARES/RACES groups in the area as part of my position with the state emergency management agency, I can tell you that I am, at times, ashamed to call myself a ham, because of the ridiculous (often even downright childish) behavior some display. The bottom line: If you can get hams to stop acting so self-righteous about their hobby, to practice passing traffic (messages read aloud and copied over the air) so they can do so efficiently (most hams don't have a clue how), get them certified in NIMS (the National Incident Management System, certification available for anyone online at <http://training.fema.gov>), and teach them to display some degree of professionalism - the "bigger picture" will begin to emerge, and the focus will return to providing a service to the community...which is where it needs to be to begin with. In retrospect, maybe that was more like $0.25... 73 ("best regards", in ham speak), Jeremy

Infrastructure addresses definition
by Tassos Chatzithomaoglou 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

How do you define infrastructure addresses in your network? Ok, probably router loopbacks are some of them. Router LANs also. But what about addresses used on WAN (or LAN p2p) links that are used for interconnections with customers? What about addresses used for public servers (dns, mail, web, etc)? Do you consider these as infrastructure addresses? If yes, how do you define your iACLs with these included? Regards, Tassos

Submarine cable sample?
by Chris Woodfield 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

Hi, Was wondering where one in the SF Bay area might be able to borrow (or otherwise procure at a reasonable cost) a short - less than 1 meter - section of undersea fiber cable for a presentation I'll be giving in a few weeks. Feel free to unicast your reply if you are in a position to assist. Thanks, -Chris

Verizon MPLS service in Anchorage
by lists lists 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

Hello, I've got a bunch of sites connected to the Verizon Private IP MPLS service, and recently brought online a location in Anchorage connected to the brand-new PE node in the same city. I'm seeing that packets marked as DSCP EF are given fantastic treatment (low jitter, no packet loss), but other packets, including AF41, AF31, and BE are given what appears to be the "junk bucket" treatment. I'm having a difficult time getting anyone to acknowledge this problem, but it's causing interactive applications to be unusable for times of the day. Can anyone point me in a good direction? thanks.

My upstream ISP does not support IPv6
by Franck Martin 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

The biggest complaint that I hear from ISPs, is that their upstream ISP does not support IPv6 or will not provide them with a native IPv6 circuit. Is that bull? I thought the whole backbone is IPv6 now, and it is only the residential ISPs that are still figuring it out because CPE are still not there yet. Where can I get more information? Any list of peering ISPs that have IPv6 as part of their products? It seems to me the typical answer sales people say when asked about IPv6: "Gosh, this is the first time I'm asked this one".

Howto for BGP black holing/null routing
by David Hubbard 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

I was wondering if anyone has a howto floating around on the step by step setup of having an internal bgp peer for sending quick updates to border routers to null route sources of undesirable traffic? I've seen it discussed on nanog from time to time, typically suggesting using Zebra, but could not search up a link on a step by step. Thanks, David
