AGIS v BBN
by Kent W. England 01 Nov '96

Folks; It appears that routes to BBN via AGIS aren't working but others are. Is this true? Perhaps we should start an AGIS Peering Woes List? 1) Digex 2) BBN Planet 3) ?? --Kent

Gentlemen, DNS is configured but there's currently no machine at the IP address.

Word is getting out
by Lon R. Stockton, Jr. 31 Oct '96

Thought this news item was interesting, given recent conversations here regarding peering (or lack thereof). ---------- Forwarded message ---------- THERE IS A WAR GOING ON! There are those who have been predicting the Internet would collapse under its new found weight. I predict it is collapsing from greed. Some of you may have noticed that certain sites on the east coast have been unreachable for the last 5 days. It is because of a disagreement between a major backbone carrier and other regional Network Access Providers. The major carrier has removed the regional carrier from their routing tables. TechKnow Times is currently investigating this story and as soon as the story details can be confirmed we will bring a special report. REMEMBER THIS: You read about this first in TechKnow Times....

Re: Bit-dumping [Was: Re: Peering Policy]

Here's a possibility offered for discussion for minimizing the effect of someone pointing default to you at an exchange point. This would not defeat all defaulting but might make the effect less painful. Do not carry a full routing table on your exchange point router. Only carry routes to your customers and to networks with which you peer at that particular exchange point. That way if someone sends you traffic destined for a peer that you do not see at that exchange point, like via private peering on another router or at another exchange point, your exchange point router will not have a route to it. Traffic from a defaulting network destined for one of your local peers could be forwarded to that peer directly without crossing your backbone. Also, it may help in detecting a defaulting network. If a customer of the evil defaulting network traceroutes to a destination that ends on your exchange point router and sends it to your NOC as a problem - their caught. This would work best at exchange points that are less than fully attended. -Andy

Might there be a way Cisco (ahem, the router vendor) could add an IP or MAC based inbound (or outbound) filter on the next hop? If so, I could maintain a filter that matches my peers. This would not prevent my peers from pointing default at me, but would prevent non-peers from doing so. Chris

Do not carry a full routing table on your exchange point router. Only carry routes to your customers and to networks with which you peer at that particular exchange point. How is this supposed to help if you're providing transit? Tony

Tennessee Circuit Charges
by Derek Elder 30 Oct '96

30 Oct '96

As I am fairly new to this list, please feel free to flame me at will if this is off-topic, not of interest, or being heavily discussed elsewhere. Are any of you running into instances such as we are in Tennesee where the state it imposing an 'ISP Tax" that we are to pay? They are even claiming that that tax is retroactive to 1994...it also appears that the state legislature is considering a tarrif amendment allowing BellSouth to charge more than $1.00/hour surcharge for data calls. I know that many of you have already or are currently fighting PUC battles and I would appreciate any insight on the subject. I will now take this offline and would appreciate any responses via private email (unless everyone is interested). | Derek Elder | djelder(a)accessus.net

I have an axe to grind here. I want to see global flat-rate > telephone service for everybody. No per-minute charges, period! Your argument changes from an economic one to a political one.
