I'm not sure if this is the right list, but this is my best guess at this point; If there is anyone here who administers (any/some/all/involved with) the sms to email gateways for AT&T/Cingular, could you please contact me offlist? Thanks mucho! -- Colin Hines

Need help with performance troubleshooting
by Rick Ernst 28 Jul '09

28 Jul '09

Starting about a week ago, I've had sporadic reports of "slow uploads" (hundreds of kbs, has been 10s of mbs) born out by multiple speed test sites and application results and also duplicated internally. Downloads are > 50Mbs as expected (OC-3 and GigE uplinks to ATT/UUNET/Level3/Sprint/Qwest, etc). It "feels" like the commonality is Seattle, but I haven't been able to find anything conclusive. I'm also not seeing anything interesting in my network as far as CPU, utiliation, interface errors, etc. Hopefully not DoSing myself; I'd like to get some external visibility from "the other direction"; can I get results against our speedtest server ( http://speedtest.easystreet.com) along with traceroute results and geographic origin of the test? Note that traceroute won't make it all the way through due to some RFC addressing and firewall rules. Thanks, Rick

Recommendations for Hong Kong datacenter, and a sanity check for my geopolitical conclusions ?
by George Sanders 28 Jul '09

28 Jul '09

I will be expanding a small network infrastructure service (read: DNS and mail ... a few 1u and 2u servers) to Hong Kong next year. We don't have any particular customer base in Hong Kong - rather, we have customers all over southeast asia and would like to serve them better, as well as attract more SE Asia customers. I chose Hong Kong for the following reasons: - South Korea is alternately happy with / upset with Japan, and I don't want to deal with that - Japan is is alternately happy with / upset with South Korea, and I don't want to deal with that - Mainland China is out of the question, for obvious reasons - The smaller (Thailand, Vietnamese, Phillipines, etc.) countries all have their own particular issues (recent coup in Thailand, etc.) So the choice came down to Hong Kong or Singapore, and I chose Hong Kong because it seems easier to "just get things done" there. I realize that in the long term there is a greater risk of social paradigm shift in Hong Kong because of mainland China, but in the short run it seems that Hong Kong is more "functional" than Singapore. Any comments on the above thought process ? The obvious follow-up is, which datacenter ? I need a full service center that will give me rackspace and let me just plug ethernet into their switch. I am not interested in brokering my own connectivity, nor am I interested in running my own routers. I want to pay one bill to one organization and get one cable. The end. I think there are further considerations though ... I read details of one very modern, very sexy datacenter housed in a skyscraper, but my research showed me that this building has been built on land reclaimed from the sea, and there is reasonable concern that the sand underpinnings could liquify, to a degree, in a seismic event. I'd also like to be more than a few feet above sea level. Honestly, as sexy as it would be to be in a slick tower right on the bay in Central Hong Kong, I would much rather find some nondescript, one story building, miles from the coast and a few hundred feet above sea level. What recommendations might someone have ? Thank you very much for any comments or suggestions you may have.

Hi folks, We're interested in finding open resolvers and reporting on them. There is already a list specific to dns-ops, so I'll just point you there if this topic is of interest. I recommend follow ups go there or privately. Thank you, <https://lists.dns-oarc.net/pipermail/dns-operations/2009-July/004311.html> John

[NANOG-announce] NANOG Election Time line 2009
by Joe Provo 27 Jul '09

27 Jul '09

Hello NANOGers! Per the charter (http://nanog.org/governance/charter/) we are approaching the annual NANOG election and appointment time. In addition to the series of "call for nominations" messages at the opening of each period, we thought to send an overview and time line ahead of the actual nominations opening. Hopefully this will get more of the eligible members of the community to consider standing for a role in one of the Committees that helps makes NANOG what it is. = NANOG Steering Committee The NANOG Steering Committee works closely with Merit to promote, support and improve NANOG. The Steering Committee is responsible for the selection of the Program Committee and the Mailing List Committee, and is the community's instrument for ensuring that the NANOG organization remains open, relevant and useful. Elections for three of the seven positions on the Steering Committee will be held in October 2009. The currently-serving Steering Committee members whose terms are expiring are Steve Feldman, Jared Mauch and Chris Morrow. Chris has served two consecutive terms so per the charter, he cannot be considered for re-election until October 2010. There are no restrictions on eligible candidates, but Steering Committee members must commit to attending two out of every three annual NANOG meetings per the charter (6.2.6). A good candidate will have experience with Internet engineering, operations, and governance organizations as well as the principles and practices which guide them. Consensus organizing, leadership, outreach and communication skills are prized. = NANOG Program Committee The Program Committee is a group of sixteen individuals from the NANOG community who together are responsible for the solicitation and selection of material for NANOG meeting Programs. A new Program Committee will be selected by the Steering Committee after the election in October. Eight positions are to be filled. The currently-serving Program Committee members whose terms are expiring are Joel Jaeggli, Rodney Joffe, Sylvie LaPerriere, Kevin Oberman, Lane Patterson, Ren Provo, Josh Snowhorn and Todd Underwood. Furthermore, Joel, Ren, Josh and Todd have all served two consecutive terms so per the charter, they cannot be considered for another Program Committee appointment until October 2010. Per the NANOG charter (6.2.1), eligible candidates are individuals who have attended at least one NANOG meeting in the past 12 months (one or more of NANOG 45, NANOG 46 or NANOG 47). Broad technical knowledge of Internet operations and familiarity with NANOG meetings are useful attributes. Having constructive opinions and ideas about how NANOG meetings might be improved is of high value. = NANOG Mailing List Committee The Mailing List Committee is a group of five individuals from the NANOG community who together are responsible for the administration and moderation of the NANOG mailing lists. A new Mailing List Committee will be selected by the Steering Committee after the election in October. Two positions are to be filled. The currently-serving Mailing List Committee members whose terms are expiring are Kris Foster and Simon Lyall. The main NANOG mailing list serves an important role in the community by providing a day-to-day forum for network operators. Participating in the MLC gives you the opportunity to make a noticeable contribution. The MLC is covered under section 7.1.2 of the NANOG charter. = Why? If you care about NANOG as a set of fora and think you would like to take a turn at volunteering your time to help make it better, please consider either volunteering yourself or nominating someone else. For more information about the role of any Committee, or to find out more about what's involved in being a Committee member, please do consult the current NANOG charter or contact someone who is already serving and ask them directly: http://nanog.org/governance/steering/steeringcommittee.php http://nanog.org/governance/program/programcommittee.php http://nanog.org/mailinglist/listadmins/ = Time Line Mon 2009-08-17 Call for Steering Committee nominations Tue 2009-09-08 Call for Program Committee nominations Mon 2009-09-14 SC nominations close Mon 2009-09-28 Call for Mailing List Committee nominations Sun 2009-10-18 Voting for the 2009/2010 NANOG SC opens at 12:00 EDT Mon 2009-10-19 PC nominations close Wed 2009-10-21 Voting for the 2009/2010 NANOG SC closes at 13:00 EDT Thu 2009-10-22 New PC appointed Thu 2009-10-29 MLC nominations close Tue 2009-11-03 New MLC appointed Cheers!

AT&T. Layer 6-8 needed.
by jamie 27 Jul '09

27 Jul '09

All, It appears at AT&T (including DSL, and my own home service via u-verse) has unilaterally and without explanation started blocking websites. I have confirmed this with multiple tests. (It actually appears that these sites are being blocked at a local-global scale -- that is, each city/hub seems to have blackholes for the sites). The sites I know of I'll list below (see Reddit for a discussion), but this is clearly and absolutely unacceptable. Please, comments on the nature of the sites are OT.. Let's keep this thread that way. (Away from being OT, that is). If any T folk are around, and have gotten wind of this (all comments / direct emails will be off record), a reply would be appreciated. No ears enclosing clue will be reached via normal channels at ~950E on a Sunday, but this is clearly a problem needing addressing, resolution, action and, who knows - suit? Thanks in advance all for insight, comments, -jamie
