Gang, In the interest of sharing 'the weird stuff' which makes the job of being an operator ... uh, fun? is that the right word?..., I would like to present the following two smokeping latency/packetloss plots, which are by far the weirdest I have ever seen. These plots are from our smokeping host out to a customer location. The customer is connected via DSL and they run PPPoE over it to connect with our access concentrator. There is about 5 physical insfastructure hops between the host and customer; The switch, the BRAS, the Switch again, and then directly to the DSLAM and then customer on the end. The 10 day plot: http://picpaste.com/10_Day_graph-YV3IdvRV.png The 30 hour plot: http://picpaste.com/30_hour_graph-DrwzfhYJ.png How can you possibly have consistent increase in latency like that? I'd love to hear theories (or offers of beer, your choice!). Happy friday all! Mike-
