I would think that a CIO of a company named "Broadband Labs" would have a lab in which to experiment with cable. > My current thoughts on this are to digitize the satellite video into > mpeg2 and deliver it over TCP/IP through the in-ground cable. What about the neighborhoods with above-ground cable, how would you deliver service to them? Sal Sabella Get your free encrypted email at https://www.hushmail.com

IP over in-ground cable applications.
by Christopher J. Wolff 12 Sep '02

12 Sep '02

Greetings, Can anyone recommend a method for integrating TCP/IP with an existing analog cable television network. The cable companies do this quite well; however, it's not immediately clear to me how I would multiplex the IP traffic and the existing video and deliver it to a home. My current thoughts on this are to digitize the satellite video into mpeg2 and deliver it over TCP/IP through the in-ground cable. This way, integrating the video and data portion are easy, however the resident would need to buy a mpeg2 set-top-box to split out the video and internet. Thank you very much for your consideration. Regards, Christopher J. Wolff, CIO Broadband Laboratories, Inc. http://www.bblabs.com

Jane, leave the chapter 11 speculation to the analysts. I can understand how chapter 7 is reason for operational concern, but come on. What are you trying to do, set a record for the most off-topic posts over the course of a week? (Of course, Susan likes to play favorites, so it's not like you're in danger of getting booted off or anything.) I have a bet with my boss that Booz Allen Hamilton will file for chapter 11 before Equinix. Sal Sabella Get your free encrypted email at https://www.hushmail.com

We've had pretty good luck with these... Like other embedded systems, they are a good fit for those without patience for more science projects in the PoP. It seems that the iR 8000 is one of the few (only?) reasonably priced TS systems that have NEBS Level 3 cert... for those that require ILEC colo, or have special durability concerns.

DNS/Routing advice
by Dan Lockwood 12 Sep '02

12 Sep '02

Everyone, I have a customer that is multihomed, to a public ISP and to another large network that uses 10.0.0.0 address space. The private address space also has services available via public address space and consequently is running a split DNS service, public and private. Because of firewalls and the placement of DNS servers this customer has a nasty routing situation and in order to make DNS work for the private numbers, has spoofed the domain of the private network. My question is this: are there any documents or RFCs that outline what is an acceptable practice for running DNS and what is not? Their kluge of a network causes continuous problems for both the upstream ISP and the private network to which they are connecting and we may find ourselves in a situation where we have to say that 'xyz' is an acceptable way of operating and 'abc' is not. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks! Dan Lockwood

Hi, It's been a while since I last saw this thread... I'm looking at a few listed below and looking for comments: Lantronix - http://www.lantronix.com/products/cs/scs820_scs1620/index.html Looks good, can't find a price on Ingram. Cyclades - http://www.cyclades.com/products/ts_series.php Looks to run about $2100 for 16 ports Digi - http://www.digi.com/solutions/devtermsrv/cm/index.shtml Looks to run about $1800 for 16 ports All of the above do sshv2, and that's a requirement. I haven't found much else. For the time being I'm ruling out old stuff like a Portmaster or Xylogics. I'd also appreciate pointers to any "roll your own" parts, esp. IDE -> Flash adapters and multiport serial cards that will work with FreeBSD. I can summarize to keep the noise down... Thanks, Charles -- Charles Sprickman spork(a)inch.com

I used to have my hands on a Netrail (AS4006) looking glass, but this seems to be gone now. thanks, regards, Vincent Rais peering coordinator Versatel Telecom Europe B.V. m.(+34) 68 705 9117 (Spain) e. peering(a)rais-associates.com, peering(a)versatel.net
