Re: [WISPA] Netflix Open Connect Platform
Each facility will be different, but generally yes, you would pay for the cross connect. If you didn't meet the requirements for a private peer, then you would use a public peer and pay them whatever they want. https://signup.netflix.com/openconnect/guidelines General Requirements 1 - 6 are what apply. The next three are only if you want a private peer (direct connection to them, not through a general switching fabric. The server option only makes sense with 100,000 or more subscribers in a given market. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com - Original Message - From: m...@tc3net.com To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2013 2:03:25 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Netflix Open Connect Platform Faisal, Do you just need to pay for the Cross Connect?

Re: [WISPA] Netflix Open Connect Platform
Let me take this into a greater amount of detail:- There are 'Public Peering Exchanges', these are either operated by a ColoFacility Owner or an independent entity. e.g. Telx (Telx Internet Exchange) (http://tie.telx.com) Anyone can purchase a 1gig port or a 10gig port connection to the TIE Peering Fabric. There is a cost attached for this, and in case of Telx, it is paid to Telx. Once one is connected to a Peering Fabric such as this on.. then one is free to peer with anyone who wishes to peer with them at this Peering Fabric. Netflix, is present at a number of these peering points, and at these peering points, there is no minimum traffic level requirement from them == The other type of peering would be if one was to Build a transport Connection to the Entity (Netflix e.g.), and have netflix allocate a port on their router, to have dedicated private peering. This would need to be negotiated with them, and would very likely carry minimum traffic level requirement. I believe this option is great if you are an isp utilizing 10g connections to the net. For most of us, connecting via a Public Peering Exchange is the most economically feasible option. Regards.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix Open Connect Platform
Yep ! it is nice to off load like this, for us, Netflix is very small, (most of our customers are business). Bulk of the traffic you see on the chart, is for a couple of other ISP's that we are peering with in Miami... BTW... we are working on getting connected to the NOTA Peering Fabric in Miami too... that is a bit more expensive and challenging. However when costs are spread across a number of folks, they become rather palatable. Last thing I was pushing for, was having the Google folks connect to the Route Servers are the Public Peering excahnges, so that smaller ISP's like us can take advantage of such an arrangement (i.e. no minimum traffic levels required). The are internally discussing the possibility of doing so.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix Open Connect Platform
I believe if your asking netflix to use a dedicated port on there router for your 10g interconnect they will want some minimums. If you peer with them on a public IX eg.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix to offer free caches to ISPs
Doesn't really affect me because the bandwidth crunch is at the last mile link to the customer. That said, we do ~30Mbps of Akamai traffic over peering and every meg we don't have to pay for is nice. The trick to getting CDN stuff when you have low traffic volumes is wait for someone big (huge university, for example) to get it and then peer with them.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix to offer free caches to ISPs
They require at least 2Gbps of Netflix traffic across your network at all time and require you connect the box to a 10Gbps port to our network. I really doubt there are many WISP's out there running this much Netflix traffic at one time. A few but nowhere near the majority. Also, for many of us, this probably isn't the problem of running out of internet transit but rather having AP's at capacity for which this would not solve at all.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix, Hulu, etc. The way forward..
I am on the other side of this. I am in an area with cable, dsl, and fiber. My lowest plan is 79.99 which is priced the same as my competition. People leave comcast because of the service. They leave dsl because it is slow. When my competition starts pricing their plans with caps I will follow suit. Until then I use Butch's QOS and the wimax QOS to shape traffic to give the customer the best possible experience. We are going to have to evolve and grow to meet customer need and expectation to continue to evolve. That includes staying on top of technology. I am already planning an LTE trial this summer that will hopefully allow me to provide what is needed for a couple more years. I feel that this will go the way of the computerevery few years you may have to scrap everything and start overor add new equipment to existing infrastructure and sell higher speed plans to the people that want it. Comcast is already rolling out 50 and 100 meg plans here.

Akamai has a program for ISPs who use a good deal of bandwidth to their network. http://www.akamai.com/html/partners/network_program.html Basically you give them your AS (you have to be multi homed) and they see if you meet the minimum bandwidth to their network. Your upstream(s) might already be accelerated so you should make some inquiries. Is there an advantage of this over a connection directly to Akamai? Seems like DNS is used to determine what server to use: dig @provider's_dns_server a1.d.akamai.net The bigger providers seem to resolve too an IP right on there network.

Between your border router and a properly configured squid server, you can replace entire domains using wccp. It's a pain to manage, but doable.

I've played with it in the past, but never could get much out of it. I think there are two reasons for this. First, in my network, the pain is actually last-mile (i.e. the extra load on the last hop to the customer), and short of putting some kind of psychic predictive cache in the customer's home, that can't be avoided. The second problem, and the one that's probably more important, is that even if the content were easily cache-able (it isn't), there wouldn't be much point to it, because the odds that any two subscribers are watching the same TV show, at the same time, with the same video settings, being streamed from the same Akamai server, or within a few hours of one another, is pretty slim.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix and Akamai
Here is a paper that looks into how Akamai directs traffic: http://www.aqualab.cs.northwestern.edu/publications/Ajsu06DBA.pdf When selecting providers, you could look at http://www.akamai.com/peering/ and http://bgp.he.net/AS20940#_peers to try to select someone that is close to Akamai. Beyond that there isn't a lot that you can use to make it go over the cheapest pipe. You could try announcing more specific routes over your cheap provider to ensure that it attracts more traffic, but that could end up attracting too much traffic.

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
Just contact Akamai, and give them your AS #, if you are using any amount of bandwidth they will colocate in your facilities (for free), so you can serve much of the Akamai content locally. What would be nice is if you could just drop your own Squid box in on your network with a wide file size caching limits, open only to your IP pool, give Akamai your IP pools and the IP of the proxy and they just tell all devices on your network to proxy through it. No expense to them but everyone still saves bandwidth. Think about it, every high school and college could throw one in as well. Matt WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
In areas where I already have 20mb line of sight sectors, yeah, no problem. But lets face it, to handle video, ISPs are going to have to make network upgrades at every sector and CPE, sooner or later. Who's gonna pay for that? Should I have to give up my profits this year, so that it can be re-invested into my network once again, so Hulu and NetFlix can continue to get rich? Even if I replace just the pre-existing customer CPE with a Ubiquiti, at $89/radio, that almost a year ROI to break even, IF I still charge the customer an additiaonl $9.95/month for their ability to use NetFlix and Hulu. Its sorta like fund raising. I got an idea... How about asking Hulu, NetFlix, and Google, to co-sign my Loan/Lease papers or better yet Lend me the money, to make the network upgrades that are necessary for my customers to use VIDEO adequately. I dont see them passing out Loan applications, nor do I see their CFO with a pen in hand. I am sick and tired of this attitude that consumers are entitled and content providers are entitled. They are not entitled to a free ride. I am not getting rich, and the facts are the majority of my customers need me. I provide something to them that they need. And video wasn't one of them initially. I never signed up for delivering Video. I CAN deliver video, but they have to pay for it, if they want it. Its not my responsibilty to pay for it. There is nothing worse than a moocher. Thats all these content providers do, looking for a free ride, mooch mooch mooch, while they sneak off to the bank with their large paycheck. Sure... I'm perfectly fine with the bandwdith management method of control. Bandwdith limit video web sites to 64kbps, and for $9.95 I'll bump it up to 1mbps. As a disclaimer... I dont currently block or limit anything. I mostly serve high capacity business, so I have not been hit much by the video bandwdith abuse yet, so I have been able to overlook the issue, and have not had to take any action. And as long as it is not a problem, I have no need to address it. But one day it will be a problem. And EVERYONE should ask, who should pay for it?. In some cases, maybe the ISP should pay for it. For example, If they are heathilly profitable, and have reach comfortable scale and finance abilty, and in a competitive environment, maybe it is then their responsibilty to stay competitive and upgrade at their own cost. But it can not be assumed that all ISPs are in that position nor that all consumers are in that position.. Whats important to me is that laws are not made that empower moochers to have the right to unlimited mooching, at the expense of honorable businessmen access providers.

That NOC might reside at a Colo. At $50 per U of space, that is a residual cost that you will pay. Obviously depends on your infrastructure. We own 19 sites out of the roughly 28 sites utilized in our network. The others we have long term lease agreements for entire rooms, not just racks. It costs us next to nothing to rack equipment. And how many Us are each of Akamai's 3 servers in the base configuration? Note with 100mb for $150/month in a colo, paying teh reoccuring rack fees would be more expensive than buying an extra 100mb of bandwidth, thus I'd argue even for the ISP there is a minimum usage capacity before it would be cost beneficial the the ISP as well, not just Akamai. Akamai won't even consider an ISP for the Accelerated Network Partner program until there is on average at least 75mbps of traffic flowing between ISP Akamai. At that point I'd say installing Akamai's CDN servers would be of great benefit to the ISP. It would cut down on that transit traffic free up external bandwidth for other applications. 100mbps isn't that cheap for some of us. In fact its about to cost me an additional $750/mo to add that to an existing connection. I'd surely take Akamai's servers over adding more transit any day. Also, the purpose of installing Akamai servers into ones network is to bring content *closer* to users. Buying bandwidth will increase your capacity to the rest of the world but doesn't do much to reduce latency (unless you're already at capacity).

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
Its also relevent to mention that there are multiple Akamai Server configs. A basic server config only stores some of the Internet content in its cache. Much larger cache servers are needed, for more effective caching. What volume is needed to get equivlent cache performance as Comcast Verizon? Also, hosting their servers is not necessarilyl free. For example, the most logicial place to put it might be at one's NOC. That NOC might reside at a Colo. At $50 per U of space, that is a residual cost that you will pay. And how many Us are each of Akamai's 3 servers in the base configuration? Note with 100mb for $150/month in a colo, paying teh reoccuring rack fees would be more expensive than buying an extra 100mb of bandwidth, thus I'd argue even for the ISP there is a minimum usage capacity before it would be cost beneficial the the ISP as well, not just Akamai. What some ISPs are doing is working in cooperation to put in a single Akamai server, and then havingthe partner ISPs peer with the ISP that homes the Akamai server, and use their aggregate bandwidth to qualify. Where the caching is most beneficial would be caching data for server s located on the opposite coast. For example, bypassing 70ms latency required to get from East to West Coast.

Thankfully, there is no net neutrality rule preventing this. ISPs always block IP addresses. Spammers' address blocks, and ISPs who tolerate spammers, and ISPs who tolerate ISPs who tolerate spammers, are routinely blocked. As others might be. Shoot first, ask questions later -- this is the Mutually Assured Destruction rule that keeps the Internet from collapsing. And which the neuts have no klew about. This is one reason why ISPs are not common carriers. Providing information service (legal term in the US) means that you are not carrying stuff blindly, though you don't have full editorial control. So yes, a web-browsing and email only service is perfectly legal. Verizon Wireless sells just such a plan, in fact; it's basically mandatory with Blackberries. Full (but not quite neutral) Internet access, as used with Droids, costs more.

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
When I googled the issue some months back, I saw a post about blocking the IP for the netflix DRM server. That would resolve most the issues by preventing the DRM authentication, and as a result, the movie from streaming. But I couldn't get it didn't work reliably. Maybe time to revisit that approach. I don't want to block the netflix website of course, I just want people to get their movies via DVD the way they used to! And I only really want to block streaming on the segments of the network that simply can't support it. -Paul On Aug 31, 2010, at 11:26 AM, Kurt Fankhauser wrote: Emailed 2 of the customers that were doing this.

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
OK, so should we be doing DNS redirecting. Redirect hulu.com to allowvideo.com for $9.95 Shopping Cart item. Alacart content? Its no different than Microsoft Windows XP, being allowed to bundle Iexplorer and MSN with WindowsOS, as long as they included signup links for downloading and subscribing to NetScape and one ro two other Big Internet Providers. As long as its not discriminatory Make sure to include an Allow Item for EVERY Video Provider you can think of Example Welcome to Allow Video.com Shopping Cart. 1. Enable Hulu $9.95 2. Enable NetFlix $9.95 3. Enable GoogleTV $9.95 4.

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
Why not bandwidth shape them down to something reasonable? I find 1.1~1.2mbit for netflix and it looks fine. they will each 5mbit if you let it.

Yea hulu is hungry. Netflix has a much better codec. I would love it if WISPA could work some kind of deal with netflix so that we could offer netflix for 'free' with a specific package. If they charge 8.99 I can see some kind of package deal along with one of the caching server setups. With the Wii, PS3 and Xbox 360 support most of my users would not even need a pc or other STB device. If my cost was in the 3 to 5$ range I know I would have to beat them off with a stick and would naturally only be packaged with the correct accounts. Add in the correct voip setup (still on the look out for a good rebrandable voip) and it would be a good triple. On Tue, Aug 31, 2010 at 4:49 PM, j284...@yahoo.com wrote: Agreed on hulu,its hungry!

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
I think the big thing here is the way they do video. Hulu, has like 3 quality settings. And you set them. Atleast with the desktop app, The flash on the pages will try to autoselect. Netflix is much more in depth. It just picks what works, With the ability to go WAY down on bitrate. When I had a netflix account, It could pull as little as like 200-300 K and the video was about as good as what you got out of the first camera phones. But then I've seen it jump all the way up to like 8Mb/s to do SD quality. This was all on a PC, Which only does SD where the consoles and set top boxes will do HD. Don't want to even imagine what they can pull if its maxed out, And you have the capacity on hand.

Blocking netflix by IP will block a LOT more than just netflix because their content is not coming from just their servers. Hulu uses a Macromedia Flash port (TCP port 1935) for content delivery. These things can be easily determined with a very quick packet capture. FWIW, I posted a response to Tom DeReggi the other day with a few rules that would identify Netflix (sort of). Be careful with those rules, as they will match much more than just Netflix streams. -- * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/* Network Engineering * * http://store.wispgear.net/* Wired or Wireless Networks * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * ImageStream, Mikrotik and MORE! * WISPA Wants You!

If you mean that they're abusing your service, you'll have to clarify what that means - the customer pays for bits to be delivered, and you're delivering them. If you sell an unlimited service, them's the breaks. If you bill by usage, just send them their next bill showing all the overages they incurred, and that probably will be an effective deterrent all by itself. :) David Smith MVN.net WISPA Wants You!

AS # is for BGP advertisements. Akamai has a program for ISPs who use a good deal of bandwidth to their network. http://www.akamai.com/html/partners/network_program.html Basically you give them your AS (you have to be multi homed) and they see if you meet the minimum bandwidth to their network.

Re: [WISPA] netflix/hulu IP's
Not sure where I heard it (Here I think..) but the magic number is something like 75Mb/s sustained. So unless you have a few thousand customers, Your most likely quite below that level. Blocking a CDN could be a big problem. You never know how much of the worlds content is CDN based till you do this. Blocking any of the big ones (Akamai, Limelight.. Bitgravity (to a lesser extent)) will break more things then you can even imagine. If someone is abusing your service, I would rate limit them. To put it in perspective. We have two upstreams, One is prepended, making the something like 80% of the internet prefer the un-prepended transit. However, the bandwidth was almost level across the board, This had me stumped.

Does anyone have one they are using? I don't think one exists. It's one reason I'm working on the smart QOS system. It will react even when we encounter an unknown protocol/service. I've been packet sniffing all morning looking for various streaming services. Currently, I can accurately detect youtube (and all other similar services), Hulu (a very easy one) and a few others. I did a test just a few minutes ago with my current implementation. Here's how it worked: 1. Set my bandwidth to 1M download speed (total_down_speed) 2. Guarantee speed of 768k for primary or normal traffic queues 3. Guarantee speed of 256k for secondary or bad traffic queues 4. Priority queues within each of those (priority1-priority8) 5. mangle rules do the following: a. Set http to prio1_normal b. watch http traffic for large downloads or streams c. Set downloads 10M20M to prio4_normal after the first 10M has downloaded (streams at the same point) d. Set downloads 20M to prio1_bad In my test, I started 2 downloads and one stream (netflix, actually). These 3 shared about equally 1M of bandwidth, with each getting around 300k (give or take a little). After they reached the 10M download, they were moved to pro4_normal. When that happened, I started another download, which took nearly all of the 1M available bandwidth (because it was priority1). The video stream was choking a little, but was mostly working, the other downloads were the same (stop/go). Once the new download reached it's 10M plateau, it was sharing the 1M pipe with the other 3 downloads and all got about 256k (the video was better). When the video and other 2 downloads reached the 20M plateau, they were moved (automatically) to the bad queues at priority1. What that did to my downloads was this: 1. The Prio1 queues in normal would allow me to surf like there was nothing else going on. 2. My last download was getting 768k (the guarantee for normal queues) 3. My bad queues (the stream and the first 2 downloads) were sharing the remaining 256k (guarantee for bad queues). I was not specifically identifying netflix in my application, but it was being caught by the large download queues. I am still working out a best practices approach to managing this traffic, but thought I would share what I have so far. What do you think of my results so far? -- -- * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/* Network Engineering * * http://www.wispa.org/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * ImageStream, Mikrotik and MORE! * WISPA Wants You!

I've been packet sniffing all morning looking for various streaming services. Currently, I can accurately detect youtube (and all other similar services), Hulu (a very easy one) and a few others. I did a test just a few minutes ago with my current implementation. Here's how it worked: 1. Set my bandwidth to 1M download speed (total_down_speed) 2. Guarantee speed of 768k for primary or normal traffic queues 3. Guarantee speed of 256k for secondary or bad traffic queues 4. Priority queues within each of those (priority1-priority8) 5. mangle rules do the following: a. Set http to prio1_normal b. watch http traffic for large downloads or streams c. Set downloads 10M20M to prio4_normal after the first 10M has downloaded (streams at the same point) d. Set downloads 20M to prio1_bad In my test, I started 2 downloads and one stream (netflix, actually). These 3 shared about equally 1M of bandwidth, with each getting around 300k (give or take a little). After they reached the 10M download, they were moved to pro4_normal. When that happened, I started another download, which took nearly all of the 1M available bandwidth (because it was priority1). The video stream was choking a little, but was mostly working, the other downloads were the same (stop/go). Once the new download reached it's 10M plateau, it was sharing the 1M pipe with the other 3 downloads and all got about 256k (the video was better). When the video and other 2 downloads reached the 20M plateau, they were moved (automatically) to the bad queues at priority1. What that did to my downloads was this: 1. The Prio1 queues in normal would allow me to surf like there was nothing else going on. 2. My last download was getting 768k (the guarantee for normal queues) 3. My bad queues (the stream and the first 2 downloads) were sharing the remaining 256k (guarantee for bad queues). I was not specifically identifying netflix in my application, but it was being caught by the large download queues. I am still working out a best practices approach to managing this traffic, but thought I would share what I have so far.

Make it a plug-n-play for us non Mikrotik people and I would say sold. - Original Message From: Butch Evans but...@butchevans.com To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Thu, November 12, 2009 11:39:20 AM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Netflix, Hula starting to creat issues with network.

Re: [WISPA] Netflix, Hula starting to creat issues with network.
So how are you to distinguish regular port 80 traffic from netflix ?

Re: [WISPA] Netflix, Hula starting to creat issues with network.
It's creating major issues with us too. We've got about 10 people on our network ruining the bandwidth for those access points they're on. Unfortunately we got 2 of those 10 on the same tower creating about 100 other people to complain. -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Sales Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2009 2:28 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Netflix, Hula starting to creat issues with network.
