1) all (meaning all hitting the zayo.telia) your traceroutes originate from University in Chicago 2) the zayo.telia device is physically close to the university 3) we should expect physically close-by backbone device to be present in disproportionate amount of traceroutes 4) almost certainly zayo.t

I guess it depends what you’re considering a “very few” number of routers but this seems to be an expected outcome. While there are a large number of wet cable landing stations, they are highly concentrated near a small number of metro areas, and with the exception of capacity owned by the ILECs

+180v and -180v for a total of 360v. At really low amperage. Still makes a respectable bang if you short it on the MDF. It gets converted on-site, either in the DSLAM or in a separate box. I think it's 12v to the ONT. On Mon, Jan 17, 2022 at 3:30 PM Michael Thomas wrote: > > On 1/17/22 2:39 PM,

What we're considering specifically are consecutive (layer 3) hops as identified by traceroute. Thus, TTL is decremented by 1 and no more than 1 (i.e., we have to get full information (not *) from consecutive hops to consider the link). I have asked my colleague to put together a set of e

Dear Pengxiong, Thanks for your questions: 1. We are using CAIDA’s Internet Topology Data Kit (ITDK) that uses the MIDAR alias resolution method to infer IP addresses assigned to the same router. 2. We understand the concerns about IP geolocation. Interfaces of the router in question ar

Carrier class core routers still cost half a million dollars each or (way) more, so it’s not uncommon for there to be 2-4 in a metro. And there are only a few metros that have undersea cable landing stations. We deploy a minimum of a pair of core routers everywhere, but with our BGP/OSPF/iBGP c

Hi Paul, Just curious. How do you determine they are the same routers? Is it based on IP address or MAC addresses? Or using CAIDA’s router alias database? Also how do you draw the conclusion that the AS1299 router is indeed in Chicago? IP-geolocation based on rDNS is not always accurate though.

As one of those Telco/ISP's, it's growing more and more likely that DSL/POTS are now on the same card and they are all tied into the 48V battery and generator protected plant.
