Re: 10Gb iPerf kit?

Can't help with faster adapters, but I believe there are some underlying architectural issues here as to why the speeds are hard to achieve, and why some people can and others maybe can't achieve them. For Carrier Ethernet, I believe most of these are covered in RFC2444 and the related RFC6815.

For RFC2444, please read RFC2544, and forgive the spam. *Roy Hirst* | 425-556-5773 | 425-324-0941 cell XKL LLC | 12020 113th Ave NE, Suite 100 | Kirkland, WA 98034 | USA On 12/8/2014 8:29 AM, Roy Hirst wrote: Can't help with faster adapters, but I believe there are some underlying architectural

Re: Followup: Survey results for the ARIN RPA

We signed our ROAs but we wont be validating anything from the ARIN region. I believe you will find this to be the norm. The tool provided by RIPE also ignores ARIN by default. Someone will probably tell me that I am being arrogant again, but basically you are asking me to help protect your

looking for an OTDR

Hi, I'm looking for an OTDR. - single and multi mode fibers - good resolution as the the primary area of operation would be in the data center - a low learning curve and simple user interface What OTDRs / manufactures can you recommend? Thanks Karsten

Re: Followup: Survey results for the ARIN RPA

One could easily presume the ARIN region RPKI deployment statistics are lower as a result of the RPA situation (and no doubt that it part of the issue), but as noted earlier, it's unlikely to be the full story since we also have a region (APNIC) where RPKI deployment also rather low that

Re: looking for an OTDR

If you can afford it, Fluke makes very nice products. The versiv platform has some impressive capabilities and is very easy to use. I have no stake in or relationship to Fluke, just like their stuff. Owen On Dec 8, 2014, at 10:06 , Karsten Elfenbein karsten.elfenb...@gmail.com wrote: Hi,

Re: DWDM Documentation

Not found as much as I'd like. I can see an architecture, can see the database and where it lives, but I can't see a data model that works. if the problem is to track dumb infrastructure metadata, like port::cableID::cabletray, then I can't get an event (e.g. SNMP) to report a status change,

I care mostly about routes to destinations close to me. If someone steals a route from someone on other side of the world everyone will rightly assume it is the other guys having trouble. Plus we simply do not have much traffic there. On the other hand it adds up for the target if many

What can I infer from show ip route and similar BGP commands?

Hello NANOG, I’m a researcher and I was trying to understand the data I collected from some BGP Looking Glasses. Basically, I was hoping to see if BGP records can tell me where my university’s provider (AS3701) is peering with its providers. I issued two BGP queries to Level3’s LGs, one in

Re: What can I infer from show ip route and similar BGP commands?

Thanks Joel for your detailed explanation. It was very informative. I have been using routeviews for sometime, but given that I could get this amount of information from other sources, I decided to give this a try. On another note, do you think there is any value in checking the next hop IP? I
