Hulu contact (ipadmin unresponsive)
by Josh Luthman 13 Apr '20

13 Apr '20

I have customers on different parts of the network saying that Hulu doesn't work. They've all said other video services work (Amazon, Youtube, Netflix, etc). Same complaint from all of them - Hulu just doesn't start. Can someone from Hulu provide some support for our mutual customer?

South Africa Lockdown Extended
by Mark Tinka 09 Apr '20

09 Apr '20

So the South African president has just extended our lockdown by another 2 weeks, to run until the end of April. We expect network operations to remain an essential service, so if any of you have any infrastructure down here, keep doing what you're doing. Mark.

Traffic destined for 100.114.128.0/24
by Drew Weaver 09 Apr '20

09 Apr '20

Hello, I've noticed over the past couple of weeks that some hosts on a network I manage appear to be trying to reach hosts in this network 100.114.128.0/24 It's an IANA reserved block but I'm really not sure what it's used for. I just notice it keeps coming up but it doesn't have a route. Has anyone else been seeing this? Thanks, -Drew

Practical guide to predicting latency effects?
by Adam Thompson 09 Apr '20

09 Apr '20

I’m looking for a practical guide – i.e. specifically NOT an academic paper, thanks anyway – to predicting the effect of increased (or decreased) latency on my user’s applications. Specifically, I want to estimate how much improvement there will be in {bandwidth, application XYZ responsiveness, protocol ABC goodput, whatever} if I decrease the RTT between the user and the server by 10msec, or by 20msec, or by 40msec. My googling has come up with lots of research articles discussing theoretical frameworks for figuring this out, but nothing concrete in terms of a calculator or even a rule-of-thumb. Ultimately, this goes into MY calculator – we have the usual north-american duopoly on last-mile consumer internet here; I’m connected directly to only one of the two. There’s a cost $X to improve connectivity so I’m peered with both, how do I tell if it will be worthwhile? Anyone got anything at all that might help me?

My data point: I'm working from home. My computer is connected through company VPN, over wifi to Comcast. Comcast speed test says 18mS. I use VNC and Webex with voice and video through the computer. VNC response time and voice delay is not noticeable.
