Re: High latency/packetloss in nyc/nj for cogent/level3/zayo?

2015-09-04 Thread Oliver Garraux
We're seeing issues between the US and northwest Europe (UK / Ireland),
that started around 40 minutes ago.  They are fairly unrelated services
(AWS, Linode, L3VPN, commercial IP transit)...so I'm assuming there's some
kind of larger outage going on?

Re: Verizon DSL moving to CGN

2013-04-07 Thread Oliver Garraux
If I'm an ISP deploying a network for users today, I effectively have to
provide some mechanism to allow those users to get to IPv4 only content.
 There is way too much stuff out there that is IPv4 only today.

Yes, content providers should provide IPv6 accessbut if I'm an ISP, I
can't really control that aspect.  If I provide users with a service that
isn't able to connect to 80% of websites (to say nothing of VPN's,
corporate email services, etc, that people may need), I'm not going to have
a whole lot of business.

Now - I completely agree that ISP's must start deploying IPv6 natively.
 Legacy equipment that doesn't support IPv6 is not an acceptable
excuseits just evidence of poor decision making and short-sighed
purchasing decisions.  CGN clearly isn't ideal and doesn't mitigate the
need for native IPv6 connectivity.  But right now, native IPv6 connectivity
is still not a substitute for some level of IPv4 connectivity, even if its
CGN'ed.

 True... But... Resources deploying/maintaining all of these keep

  My point is that people seem to scoff at CGN. There is nothing stopping
 anyone putting in CGN for IPv4 (that has to be done to handle IPv4 address
 exhaustion), then giving dual stack for end users can be done at any time.
 

 Not really...

  Face it, we're running out of IPv4 addresses. For basic Internet
 subscriptions the IPv4 connectivity is going to be behind CGN. IPv6 is a
 completely different problem that has little bearing on CGN or not for
 IPv4. DS-Lite is also CGN, it just happens to be done over IPv6 access. MAP
 is also CGN.
 

 No, it really isn't. Sufficient IPv6 deployment at the content side would
 actually allow the subscriber side to be IPv4 or dual-stack for existing
 customers with new customers receiving IPv6-only. The missing piece there
 is actually the set-top coversion unit for IPv4-only devices. (Ideally, a
 dongle which can be plugged into the back of an IPv4-only device with an
 IPv6-only jack on the other side. Power could be done a number of ways,
 including POE (with optional injector), USB, or other.

  I'm ok with people complaining about lack of IPv6 deployment, but I
 don't understand people complaining about CGN. What's the alternative?

 IPv6 deployment _IS_ the alternative. They are not orthogonal.

Re: Whats so difficult about ISSU

2012-11-08 Thread Oliver Garraux
I know some people here have mentioned good experiences with ISSU on
Nexus.   I don't doubt that it usually works right, but in my latest
experience with upgrading NX-OS on dual-SUP'ed 7k's, it was hitless
if, by hitless, you mean ~20% packet loss while troubleshooting with
TAC before we found that we had to remove and re-apply QoS policies
from every interface.

Also, depending on the update, linecards might have to be reset.

Timeframe for LinkedIn Attack?

2012-06-10 Thread Oliver Garraux
Hey, I'm curious if anyone has heard of a possible timeframe for the
LinkedIn attack?

I use different email aliases on most websites I sign up for.  (So I
can identify where a spammer got my email address from and so I can
just remove the alias if I get spammed a lot).  I've been testing some
scripts I wrote to parse through my email logs recently, and noticed a
few interesting log entries from back in May.

I have accounts on Last.fm and on LinkedIn (using email aliases).  I
received a spam message on the email alias I use for LinkedIn on May
10.  I also received four spam messages on the email alias I use for
Last.fm on May 10.  The LinkedIn related message came in at 20:22 UTC.
 The four Last.fm messages came in between 21:26 and 21:51 UTC.  All
of these messages were rejected because the IP the connection came
from was listed on Spamhaus’s XBL (they came from 5 different IP's).

I don't think this necessarily proves anything beyond a shadow of a
doubt - but it seems really suspicious to me, given that I've never
seen any other spam directed to these address before or after May 10,
and that the email addresses for both of these sites that were
compromised were spammed for the first time on the same day. (And none
of the other 100+ email aliases I have received spam for the first
time on that day).

This would suggest to me that LinkedIn and Last.fm may have been
compromised at least a month ago.  Has anyone else seen anything that
would confirm or refute this?

Re: airFiber (text of the 8 minute video)

2012-03-29 Thread Oliver Garraux
 Also keep in mind this is unlicensed gear (think unprotected airspace). 
 Nothing stops everyone else in town from throwing one up and soon you're 
 drowning in a high noise floor and it goes slow or doesn't work at all. Like 
 what's happened to 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz in a lot of places. There's few urban or 
 semi-urban places where you still can use those frequencies for backhaul. The 
 reason why people pay the big bucks for licenses and gear for licensed  
 frequencies is you're buying insurance it's going to work in the future.

 Greg

I was at Ubiquiti's conference.  I don't disagree with what you're
saying.  Ubiquiti's take on it seemed to be that 24 Ghz would likely
never be used to the extent that 2.4 / 5.8 is.  They are seeing 24 Ghz
as only for backhaul - no connections to end users.  I guess
point-to-multipoint connections aren't permitted by the FCC for 24
Ghz.  AirFiber appears to be fairly highly directional.  It needs to
be though, as each link uses 100 Mhz, and there's only 250 Mhz
available @ 24 Ghz.

It also sounded like there was a decent possibility of supporting
licensed 21 / 25 Ghz spectrum with AirFiber in the future.
