We're seeing 90% packet loss between Time Warner in socal, starting at 24.30.169.141 (tge0-9-0-23.lsapcawv02h.socal.rr.com) and anything in 74.125 (google space). Has been in ticket hell for the last week. Could you please contact me off list for the ticket number and additional information? This is a major impairment, at least for those TW customers it's affecting. Thanks, Spencer PBRC NOC

Dyn Internet Intelligence (Formerly, Renesys) vs Telegeography's Global Bandwidth Research Service
by Arqam Gadit 17 Nov '15

17 Nov '15

Hello guys, Does anyone here have any experience with Dyn's Internet Intelligence or Telegeography's Global Bandwidth Research Service? I am looking to use them to answer two questions: 1. Which is best possible path available, given the current internet infrastructure, from point A to B in terms of latency and jitter? 2. Which careers should I talk to get those paths? Just wanted to know if anyone here has any experience with them or if there are some other tools that I should be looking into before making the purchase. Regards, Arqam

Advance notice - H-root address change on December 1, 2015
by Kash, Howard M CIV USARMY RDECOM ARL (US) 17 Nov '15

17 Nov '15

This is advance notice that there is a scheduled change to the IP addresses for one of the authorities listed for the DNS root zone and the .ARPA TLD. The change is to H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET, which is administered by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory. The new IPv4 address for this authority is 198.97.190.53. The new IPv6 address for the authority is 2001:500:1::53. This change is anticipated to be implemented in the root zone on 1 December 2015, however the new addresses are operational now. They will replace the previous IP addresses of 128.63.2.53 and 2001:500:1::803f:235 (also previously known as AOS.BRL.MIL and AOS.ARL.ARMY.MIL) We encourage operators of DNS infrastructure to update any references to the old IP addresses and replace them with the new addresses. In particular, many DNS resolvers have a DNS root "hints" file. This should be updated with the new IP addresses. New hints files will be available at the following URLs once the change has been formally executed on December 1: http://www.internic.net/domain/named.root http://www.internic.net/domain/named.cache The old IPv4 address will continue to work for six months after the transition (until 1 June 2016), at which point it will be retired from service. The address will remain under the control of the Army Research Laboratory, never to be used again for DNS service. The old IPv6 address will continue to work indefinitely, but may ultimately be retired from service. Simultaneous to the retirement of the old address on June 1, 2016, the ASN for H-root will change from 13 to 1508. You can monitor the transition of queries to the new addresses at the following URL: http://h.root-servers.org/old_vs_new.html -- Howard Kash U.S. Army Research Laboratory

Time Waner Cable IPv6 help needed
by Yang Yu 16 Nov '15

16 Nov '15

Last month after a service upgrade/reprovisioning I am no longer getting an IPv6 prefix. Now all I see are RAs and never a response to DHCPv6 solicit. I have tried different support channels but no luck getting an answer. >From what I gathered IPv6 is available in my market and no known outages. Can someone please ping me offline? Very much appreciated Yang

Colo space at Cermak
by Mike Hammett 14 Nov '15

14 Nov '15

Has something happened the past couple months to cause a quick shortage of space at Cermak? I had an offer sent a few months ago (when I didn't need it) where a cab and five cross connects were cheaper than what five cross connects normally are, much less the cabinet value as well. Around that time I think cabinets were going for $700 or so for basic primary\redundant 20A. Now the cabinet is going for $1,800. It went from being the cheapest I've seen at Cermak to the most I've seen at Cermak in a matter of a few months. Two people with space in that building are citing an uptick in demand. Really? That much of a demand increase with hundreds of thousands of square feet coming online in the Chicago metro? Can anyone corroborate that story or are they just making stuff up hoping I agree to inflated cabinet prices? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com

Hi, Anyone here using comcast metro-e? I'd like to hear the good, bad and the ugly. I have a call in to sales but it being the weekend I won't be expecting a response, but I'm also wondering off the top of my head on general ballpark pricing for gigE? Thanks. Mike-

Re:Updated Ookla Speedtest Server Requirements
by Janusz Jezowicz 14 Nov '15

14 Nov '15

We have done lots of 1Gbit testing in last months while improving our own speed tester for 1Gbit. We found Speedtest.net very inaccurate on 1Gbit (especially in IE) If anyone is interested in our test results feel free to have a look here> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6260259/BSC%20HTML5%20Speedtest%20vs%20… Our test setup was - We spawned 2x 1Gbit network instances on Amazon EC2 and measured throughput between them. We found DSLReports being much more accurate, on top of being HTML5 based. Of course we are very biased because we offer speed test as well, but I hope it prompts someone to verify if results from Ookla on 1Gbit connections are what they expect.

Here is the link to their recommendations. http://www.ookla.com/support/a26461638/ I want a server that is capable of handlilng a speedtest up to 10Gbps. I plan to do this with an SFP+ port when my network comes along. (As soon as MikroTik comes out with a decent 10G CCR router that is compatible with more SFPs.) In the mean time I will just test 1 Gbps speeds off a copper GE port, but want the SFP+ capability so I don't have to repurchase hardware in the next year. Thanks!

Another puck.nether.net Outage?
by Crist Clark 13 Nov '15

13 Nov '15

There hasn't been a any traffic on the puck.nether.net list to which I am subscribed since the 10th. I sent something to cisco-nsp yesterday and retried today, and nothing has come through. Is it me or puck? I apologize for using NANOG for this, but jared's email is puck.nether.net too; something OOB is needed. I know there are many, many people here who also follow puck.nether.net lists and some may have another way to reach him.
