I’m having a hard time figuring out why it takes 6 hours to get a generator up

Is this a cable modem connection? Fiber-to-coax media converters and 
coaxial trunk amplifiers are fed from AC transformers on random poles or 
next to random underground pedestals. They need to roll a truck to the 
location(s) without power and basically set up a generator and plug the 
power injector into it. They typically use little Honda portables (which 
need refueling fairly often). Unless you're real close to the cable 
company's head-end there usually isn't any kind of automatic backup power.


When there's a local power outage near me in Oregon, Wave doesn't even 
bother with generators as typically their customers' power in the area 
is out too.

Any Wave/Astound clue on the list?

2023-02-22 Thread Mike Lyon
Going on 12 hours on an outage that is due to a power outage somewhere. 
According to the Wave/Astound NOC, generator(s) were on the way 6 hours ago…

If you could hit me up offlist, i can give you the master ticket number.

I’m having a hard time figuring out why it takes 6 hours to get a generator up 
and running in Silicon Valley.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Re: Reverse Traceroute

2023-02-22 Thread Rolf Winter

Hi Christoper,

I cannot/shouldn't really answer, since this is somebody else's work. 
The latest publication on that body of work can be found here:


https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3517745.3561422

Published at IMC 22 last October.

I believe a demo is actually online here: https://revtr.ccs.neu.edu/

That piece of work and ours differ in a number of ways. Whereas the work 
you cite is an external system really, that let's you perform a reverse 
traceroute through said system, we have implemented something, that 
works just like traceroute does today, but for the reverse direction. 
I.e. it works from your terminal, performing a traceroute back to you. 
The system you mention has an accuracy of about 92% at the AS-level. 
Since we perform the actual measurement between two endpoints we 
identify the actual forwarding path, at the router-level, including 
load-balanced paths.


But we use ICMP and would need code points to move forward. So if you 
find this useful, discussion on the IntArea mailing list would be 
appreciated.


Best,

Rolf

Dear NANOG folks,

As you know, traceroute is unable to enumerate routers on the reverse

asymmetric, knowing the reverse path would be beneficial e.g. for
troubleshooting purposes (https://youtu.be/L0RUI5kHzEQ?t=2312).

We have implemented a reverse traceroute tool
(https://github.com/hsanet/reverse-traceroute), both client and server
for both IPv4 and IPv6. We are also in the process of specifying the
protocol at the IETF
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-heiwin-intarea-reverse-traceroute).


We also gave a talk on reverse traceroute at DENOG14
(https://youtu.be/Y7NtqLEtgjU).

If you would like to play with reverse traceroute, the easiest option is
to work with the client and use one of the public server instances
(https://github.com/HSAnet/reverse-traceroute/blob/main/ENDPOINTS). If
you would be willing to host a public server instance yourself, please
reach out to us. Also, if you find this work useful, please start
discussing the work at the IntArea WG at the IETF.

Last undersea Internet cable connecting Vietnam with the world breaks down

2023-02-22 Thread Sean Donelan



https://en.vietnamplus.vn/last-undersea-internet-cable-connecting-vietnam-with-the-world-breaks-down/248731.vnp


Since February 10 when telecommunication firms took technical solutions 
and opened up more data flows on land-based cables, the Internet 
connections have been improved and 50% of international Internet capacity 
has been restored.


Nguyen Hong Thang, Director of the Vietnam Telecommunications Authority, 
said that a coordination board was established to monitor measures 
responding to the submarine cable incident.


Notably, besides applying technical measures, telecommunications firms 
also quickly opened more connection capacity on land cables to ensure 
service quality and interests for Internet users despite high costs, he 
said.
