Re: Hurricane Maria: Summary of communication status - and lack of

2017-09-29 Thread Sean Donelan


The situation reports from Puerto Rico seems to be getting passed 
through public relations, so I'll try to add some context.



Public Safety
   Primary Public Safety Answering Point (9-1-1) center generator 
ran out of diesel fuel.  Switched to alternate PSAP.


  San Juan Police Department has restored its radio repeaters and 
police radio communications metro-wide. (translated from spanish, so I 
think I understood the technical translation).




Landline Central Offices
813,546 subscribers (CIA World Factbook)

390,000 subscribers in 52 municipalities with voice, data and long 
distance (Claro)
 Repaired fiber optic cable conntecting CO's in Fajardo and Rio 
Grande.


 65% of inter-office Central Office connections restored island-wide.
 Remaining CO's have only local voice calling.

 Optico Fiber reports most of its infrastructure is intact, and has 
open WiFi hotspots outside its offices.



Wireless services
3,227,281 subscribers (CIA World Factbook)

29 municipalities have 0% working cell sites.  It appears carriers are 
repairing one tower in each county/municipality to improve island-wide 
coverage.  Several municipalities going from 0 to 1 cell site working.


310,000 subscribers in 28 municipalities with working cell towers (Claro)

34% of San Juan has working cell tower coverage (Claro)

Cell on Wheels in Ponce (4 mile radius) serving 6,000 calls per hour, 
35,000 texts per hour (AT)


Dorado, Tao Baja and Toa Alta have T-Mobile service (T-Mobile)


I don't know what FCC and PRTRB are counting:

286 working cell sites out of 2671 (according to FCC report)
96 working cell sites out of 1600 (according to PR Telecommunications 
Regulatory Board report)


For context, the number of cell sites repaired each day since 
the end of Hurricane Maria is improving slowly - average less than 20 
sites a day, but some days its negative, i.e. more cell towers failing 
than repaired.


On U.S. Virigin Islands, the number of cell sites out of service 
decreased initially, but has slowly increased for the last 5 days.


I created a spreadsheet of the FCC wirelss outage data from hurricane 
Harvey, Irma and Maria.


https://www.donelan.com/FCC-Wireless-Outages.xlsx

There is no consistent pattern between states, territories or hurricanes. 
Florida had the fatest wireless restoration, average 500 cell sites 
restored a day; while U.S. Virgin Islands averaged less than 1 
cell site restored.  But Florida was mostly restoring the electrical grid, 
which restored lots of cell sites.  Harvey was slow to start restoring 
cell sites, the tropical storm lasted for days; but less than 6% of cell 
sites were out of service.



Cable systems

 First official report from Liberty Cable Puerto Rico

 Most cable headends or in good condition, with backup generators. 
Internet connection to international circuits reconnected. Main fiber 
trunk between San Juan and Luquillo completed. Working to repair 
infrastructure and primary services such as physical plant, main 
repeater bases, fiber optic ring and fiber to distribution stations in 
neighborhoods. (LibertyPR)



Satellite Services and Satellite Phones

   As more satellite phones are distributed, social media and news 
reporters are saying satellite capacity is getting worse.  It may be user 
issues and lack of training, or running out of satellite bandwidth in the 
area.

1 Gigabits/s ipv4 or ipv6 forwarding IMIX or Internet traffic, full
duplex (not sure if cisco or miercom are conducting bidirectionals
traffic flows at the same time).


With an FW-7543, I can iperf bidirectional 1gbps with no acl.  I can get 
strongswan ipsec bidirectional at about 50mbps (the cpu has AES-NI).  I 
havn't tried ipsec on devices like the FW-7573.




2)
with ACLs and with uRPF
with prefix filtering
with bgp ext-communities (rfc 8092 would be a ++, but not mandatory)


I can customize configs with various combinations of VRRP, 
FreeRangeRouting BGP/OSPF (full routes are no problem), nftables for 
ACL, lldpd, hostapd for wireless, openvswitch for bridging 
requirements/netflow/sflow ...


The linux kernel supplies uRPF.  FreeRangeRouting (a fork of Quagga) can 
do prefix filtering, ext-communities, etc.  They have even recently 
implemented EVPN using VxLAN for encapsulation.



3)
with BGP full route, 1 eBGP session + 1 iBGP  (--> multihomed, single
attached solution, so there is 2 CPE connected to 2 bgp transit))
I've used the FW-7543 in pairs to a customer for this:  a management 
port,  a port between the two, an upstream port, and a downstream port.

4)
vrf light and
SNMP + telnet/ssh with ACLs
Linux kernel has VRF capabilities, or use namespaces or native 
containers for segregation of functions or for implementing virtual 
functions.



Currently on Cisco side, we see the following candidates:

- ASR 1001-x
- ASR 1002
- ISR 4431, 4451
- ISR G2 2921 + 2951 + 3925(E)  (EoL soon, so we are currently in the
process of evaluating other solution).


But we would like also to include other manufacturer : juniper, mikrotik

AT LA issue

Hello.

We are experiencing traffic issues between AT and twtelecom between SF and LA 
(5-7% dropped and out-of-order packets, increased latency RTT).
Issue occurs only during business hours pacific time. We are on the AT

My personal guess is oversubscribed peering, but what do I know?

zayo / AS 6461 maximum prefix limit

2017-09-29 Thread Job Snijders
Hi all,

It appears one of our fellow network operators ran into some issues
earlier today, probably due to the turn-up of a some new circuits for
customers. In order to expedite the restoration I'm sharing the below
information.

I recommend any peering partners that saw BGP sessions go down with Zayo
/ AS 6461 due to maximum prefix limits being hit, please increase the
maximum prefix limit to 65,000 for IPv4 and 2,000 for IPv6 and/or clear
BGP sessions.

The information on https://www.peeringdb.com/net/541 is current.

Kind regards,

CenturyLink VDSL2 Support For RFC 4638 or IPoE?

Hey everyone,

Don't suppose if anyone on this list knows if RFC 4638 (baby jumbos, aka 
MTU of 1508) or IPoE is supported on CenturyLink VDSL2 connections?


I know IPoE is supported on connections with their TV service option. 
Would be nice to either get PPPoE out of the picture or have a proper 
1500 MTU.

Re: Peering at public exchange authentication

2017-09-29 Thread Bob Evans
Almost all good and popular peering points utilize MAC locks on ports for
all peers. (With few exceptions. )  To hijack a bgp session one would need
not only a port on the peering network but a MAC address registered with
the peering network - or their packets won't transverse the port through
the switches to your port.

So the extra CPU load of MD5, in my opinon, is a waste on an peering edge
router with many peers. With lots of peers on a router - all the timing
and table building after a needed maintenance reboot could lead to table
building slowness and establishment timing sluggishness issues (depending
on the router of course).

If a peering network doesn't lock most all participants (and any router
servers they have) by the MAC of the peering device I won't be a
participant.

All that said - I know of a way a customer of a network can create havoc
by using a device/router that allows the MAC to be modified like a
variable. However, for the most part that havoc would be limited to that
network that hacking customer is located on. This would also be a truly
rare event as there needs to be something the network also allowed for the
customer to get routable layer 2 access to the peering port.

Career federal employees are taught to write situation reports in very 
boring language with just the facts known. Nevertheless, after 
reading lots of situation reports, you start to notice when the 
bubureaucratic language changes. Perhaps the most famous was the 
commander of Apollo 13's report "Houston, We have a problem."


Puerto Rico has announced a new web site with current status:

However, in the last 24 hours I've noticed some agency situation reports 
used different statistics to report "happy, happy, joy, joy" stuff. In the 
bureaucratic world, this is very concerning, such as when the Veterans

You can't fix problems, if the real situation isn't being reported

Re: Best way to San Jose Fairmont from SFO?

2017-09-29 Thread Larry LaBas
If one uses Caltrain and has luggage there is a luggage car with racks.  

Also no wifi on Caltrain but wifi is available on Bart and the VTA (light rail 
and express buses).  The car with the assistance ramp has a washroom, the rest 
do not.

As a long time commuter (Gilroy to SF) I do recommend Bart to Caltrain to Light 
Rail as it will be cheaper than Uber.  When I last returned from London we took 
that route.  It's also very reliable and usually on schedule.

Yes, I'm a bit jaded on driving in traffic in the area as I've also been doing 
that for many years.

I've found Citymapper the best app for directions and public transport.  Not 
only was it great here but was fantastic for using the tube in London and 
walking  around.  You can call uber or get driving directions from it also.

I live in the next block along from the Fairmont. For people who want to use 
CalTrain then there is the Downtown Area Shuttle (DASH) that runs from Diridon 
around the downtown area and will pass by the Fairmont on San Fernando St. The 
shuttle is timed to connect with CalTrain in both directions and is free, so

I disagree… I’ve done it during the week and it’s not that bad.

I find Lyft to be the most desirable option (About $65), with Uber as
a second choice.

Third choice would be BaRT/CalTrain (to Diridon) followed by either a very
short Lyft ride or VTA bus or light rail.

Another option (if you get on the right CalTrain) is Tamien station and
connection to light rail there.

Light rail gets you _VERY_ close to the Fairmont. The Fairmont has entrances
on Market St. (Front Door direct to Lobby) and First St. (Back door, hallway
to lobby). The VTA light rail northbound is on First St.

I’m not 100% sure of the light rail routing from the Diridon station to downtown
as it’s tied to the Almaden line and I’m usually dealing with the Santa Teresa
line.

I, myself intend to bicycle to the meeting as my home is only about 7 miles 
away.

RE: isp/cdn caching

I think that Cloudflare has a caching solution, but I think they have strict 
requirements towards the isp in order to install them on their premises.

Hi, I've been aware of a few caching providers for a few years now, but I'm 
learning of others as time goes on. which makes me curious if there are more 
springing up and gaining popularity.  I'm speaking of ISP-type caching whereas 
the cache provider sends hardware servers and perhaps a switch to the local ISP 
to install locally in their network.  Can someone please send a simple list of 
what they know is the current players in this ISP Caching space?  I'll list the 
ones I know about and you please let me know of others.  This seems to be an 
evolving/growing thing and I'm curious of where we are today for significant 
providers and possibly up-and-coming ones that I should know about.  (amazon 
prime has my wondering also.)

 

Google (GGC)

Netflix (OCA)

Akamai (AANP)

Facebook (FNA)

Apple (I heard this isn't isp-located like the others, but unsure)

? others ?

? others ?

I'm arriving on Sunday morning, so have plenty of time, and will take
Caltrain down (BART to Millbrae, then Caltrain), sure it'll take 2h, but
any van service wouldn't be much faster.

During the week, or out of daylight hours it's a much less sensible idea.

I'm arriving on Sunday morning, so have plenty of time, and will take
Caltrain down (BART to Millbrae, then Caltrain), sure it'll take 2h, but
any van service wouldn't be much faster.
