I have an exact copy of the nitrous.digex.net page running internally for our NCC. I wrote it all in PERL. I am still fixing up a few pieces of the code (namely the ping and traceroute functions), but when I am finished I would be more than happy to share it with anyone that wants it. I should note that it is written to be utilized on Cisco routers with rsh enabled.

It seems like a perl/expect combination. If folks want to cook up a freely redistributable implementation, I can assist.

Re: [NOOP] 24x7 NOC..
by Todd Graham Lewis 11 Oct '97

The way our NOC does it is: - alternating between 3 and 4 days per week - 12 hours per day - two people per shift This makes for an average of 42 hours per week and a four shifts of two people, or a staff of eight. Keeping a ringer in the rotation is probably not a bad idea either, and of course fnord! a manager is needed, bringing the total to ten. This is not my department, so I'm not the expert I pretend to be. -- "I always drive properly.

BGP tables

I'm interested in trading a full BGP table once a day/week to be used for trouble shooting some of our announcements. Are people doing this already? --Ben Kirkpatrick Data Products, Electric Lightwave, DD: 360-816-3508

MAE-East Down better than up?
by Alex Bligh 11 Oct '97

11 Oct '97

I'm sitting here with most of my MAE-East peers down, expecting chaos and packet loss everywhere. However, generally speaking the world seems to be performing far better than with it up. I can reach Microsoft with no packet loss. When MAE-East was up, record was 75% packet loss ("that's normal" was the response). I'd figured all the other IXPs would be congestion hell. Not from here. Is it just me, or is there a moral here ... -- Alex Bligh GX Networks (formerly Xara Networks)

We are also seeing several daily "batch" peer state flaps. The WorldCom NOC reports that @02:30 EDT they will be replacing several switches.
