Reminder for Phoenix NANOG
by Rodney Joffe 24 Oct '97

24 Oct '97

A quick reminder before you pack... We have ethernet connectivity and power for everyone...... Roamabouts all over, and 10baseT ports and power outlets at most seats. There will also be tables around the entire perimeter of the main hall, but first come, first served (except for sob!). So bring your laptops. You'll also have your choice of DHCP, or fixed IPs, so make sure you have dhcp drivers. See you on Sunday or Monday. Rodney Joffe Genuity Inc., a Bechtel company http://www.genuity.net

It looks like the FDDI link between gigaswitches is approaching saturation : http://207.53.84.41/MAE/west.gigalink.overlay.html > An ET when that may be resolved? > >Also, the 'upgrade' at MAE-EAST that dropped the Gigaswitch traffic from 1.2G >to 0.5G/s, is that being viewed as a problem?

something of interest to gated users
by Paul A Vixie 23 Oct '97

23 Oct '97

i know that programming is passe, and i apologize for not being able to think of any good political statements to make here, but if you're running bgp via gated and you'd like to know which of your peers are misconfigured, the following perl script may be of help. change $us as appropriate. note that you need "traceoptions state detail send open recv open" in your bgp declaration, and the script below wants your gated.log file as input. #!/usr/bin/perl $us = "204.152.184.134"; while (<>) { chop; next unless /^\w\w\w \d\d (\d\d\:\d\d\:\d\d)\s+/o; ($ts, $_) = ($1, $'); if (/^BGP RECV /o) { $_ = $'; if (/^((\d+\.){3}\d+)\+\d+ \-\> ((\d+\.){3}\d+)\+\d+$/) { ($outer_ts, $their_ip, $our_ip) = ($ts, $1, $3); }elsif (/^version 4 as (\d+) holdtime \d+ id ((\d+\.){3}\d+)/){ if ($ts eq $outer_ts) { ($as, $id) = ($1, $2); } } } elsif (/bgp_pp_recv\: no group for ((\d+\.){3}\d+)\+\d+/) { if ($ts eq $outer_ts && $our_ip eq $us) { $_ = sprintf("as %5d ip %15s id %15s", $as, $their_ip, $id); $result{$_} = $ts; } } } while (($key,$val) = each %result) { print "$val: $key\n"; } exit 0;

>Aren't all the Gigaswitches from DEC ATM backed anyway? (FDDI is an >emulation on an OC3/12 card slot?) That's what the DEC literature seemed >to say when I perused it last. Not. Gigaswitch is a crossbar-based _packet_ switch. I recall reading fairly comprehensive article on its internals. Most likely it is still available from somewhere on Internet. If i understand correctly, its ATM interfaces do packet shredding/reassembly. --vadim

Sprint NAP
by jvanick＠megsinet.net 22 Oct '97

22 Oct '97

Hi There, I know that this is a little off-topic, but I was wondering if anybody could give me any pointers on who to contact to get into the sprint nap... we're bringing up OC3c to Ameritech NAp and a concentrated-FDDI connection into MAE-East, and while we're running through the east coast area we though we'd get into the sprintnap as well... Any info would be appreciated. Thanks! -- Jason Jason Vanick ------------------------------------------ jvanick(a)megsinet.net Network Operations Manager V: 312-245-9015 MegsInet, Inc. 225 West Ohio St. Suite #400 Chicago, Il 60610
