We got numerous copies to the same email address, the logins didn't work initially. The phone numbers given are of questionable utility. Virtually no useful information was provided. My attitude at this point is, ignore it until they provide some useful information. We finally got the hard copy. No customer IP listed, just our recursive resolvers, both for the customers as well as the ones that handle the MX servers. All that waiting and work for apparently nothing. I'm going to guess that my bind servers aren't malware infected (outside of being bind j/king). Same here, The hard copy came the other day with the access codes to download the IP list. Every IP on the list was for a resolving DNS server on our IP space. Total waste of time.
Re: Bandwidth Upgrade
For the past 17 years I have managed to keep my bandwidth budget the same. I had 1 T1 in 1994 and have multiple GigEs now. I still pay roughly the same price. So, shop it around and see if you can upgrade without affecting your budget. It is much easier to justify when it doesn't change the bottom line. -Matt - Original Message - From: Daniel Walter Bielawa dwbiel...@liberty.edu To: nanog@nanog.org Sent: Thursday, November 17, 2011 10:30:01 AM Subject: Bandwidth Upgrade Greetings, My team is in the process of putting some documentation together to justify a bandwidth upgrade. I am asking if you would be willing to reply back to me, with how you decide that it is time to upgrade your bandwidth. On-line or off-line reply's will be acceptable.

Re: STRIKE: VZN
Historically the network gets more stable when they are on strike. It is amazing how well stuff works when nobody is mucking with the network.

Re: Verizon local CFA sanity check
Wouldn't you map the DS1 to the M13 mux that is connected to the STS1 on the OC? I didn't think Verizon did DS1 level xconnects directly into SONET. - Original Message - From: Christopher Pilkington c...@0x1.net To: nanog@nanog.org Sent: Monday, January 24, 2011 1:25:46 PM Subject: Verizon local CFA sanity check I'm writing a LOA/CFA doc for some DS1s to be delivered to us on a Verizon private OC12 ring, and I'm getting conflicting info (including from multiple people within Verizon) on how to address individual DS1s. For STS/DS3s, it's pretty obvious, just the STS number, i.e. SCID/OC12/STS/CLLI_there/CLLI_here Anyone know for certain how Verizon numbers DS1 channels on an OC on a CFA doc?

Re: Surcharge for providing Internet routes?
We provide full tables to customers that ask, 99% of the time they don't know what they are asking for and don't really need it. full tables doesn't cost anything more but we only do it for our 100+meg customers. I don't for example do BGP with T1 level customers. -Matt - Original Message - From: Patrick W.

I've never heard of it, but iow, I'd pay more if I could get my upstreams to provide the full table... Is there a market? I doubt it. Every upstream I've dealt with in the US western Europe provides a full table if you ask. Kinda the point of being an upstream. There are some countries where Bee-Gee-Pee is not understood, and they therefore do not speak it. If you buy transit from someone and they charge for setting up BGP and sending you a full table in the US, Canada, and most of Europe, I'd find another provider. That one probably isn't clueful enough to provide good service. In other parts of the planet, well, they probably still aren't clueful enough. :) But when the game is fixed, if it's the only game in town, you sometimes have to play anyway. -- TTFN, patrick -- Matthew S.
