RE: Does anyone actually like CenturyLink?

CenturyLink a network which has a long history of troubles, merged with Level3/TWT/Telcove/etc which had, IMOHO, excellent technical history. They've created some bastard which is less than what Level3 once was. As legacy Level3, I still have most of my original team, but I'm confident that

RE: Centurylink having a bad morning?

My systems dropped CL about 03 this morning. Appears that a correction has been applied as I am seeing more normal traffic from CL. Still no access to their portal and the phone is a mess. LQ. Marshall | Sr. Network Engineer | RegEd -Original Message- From: NANOG On Behalf Of Drew

RE: Question on BlackBox or Commworks

I back Mike’s comments, they support some of our on-prem hardware/software. To my knowledge their senior techs/engineers work remote. For on-site they do not farm services to 3rd parties but to the local BB office. This means the field tech may be trained in the solution but may not be an

Level(3) DNS Spoofing All Domains

This is mostly informational and may have already hit this group. My google-foo failed me if so. I discovered that the CenturyLink/Level(3) public DNS (4.2.2.2, etc) are spoofing all domains. If the hostname begins with a "w" and does not exist in the authoritative zone these hosts will return

RE: Extending network over a dry pair

I used to take “dry pairs” or “alarm circuits” and take SDSL modems to create high bandwidth ( up to 10Mbps, relative to the time) circuits. They were very reliable and incredibly cheap (@$22-88/mo). Regional bell at the time (or at least in my area) would make it difficult to order. Had to
