Somewhat related: I peer with BGPmon.net, which is not on your list. Apparently they have been acquired by OpenDNS since I last looked at their website. I'm not aware of Cymru having a data gathering thing. Do you have a link? I peer with their bogons, UTRS, and IXP services. The IXP one was just added today actually: https://www.team-cymru.org/IXP/ When I turned it up, I saw they were missing the IP ranges used by MICE and several others, so I let them know. -- Richard

Also, just a note on this for those thinking in 501(c)3 lines. My understanding of a 501(c)6 is that the donations/contributions from outside parties to MICE are *not* tax deductible for the contributor. https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/other-non-profits/tax-treatment-o… -- Andrew Hoyos hoyosa(a)gmail.com > On Oct 24, 2016, at 9:56 PM, Larry Patterson <larry(a)atomicdata.com> wrote: > > So assuming paperwork happens in a timely fashion, donations after the filing date would be tax deductible for 2016?

Re: Please welcome Fastly to MICE!

Andrew, We have an IXP Manager (they just simplified their install a great deal) setup running now for just the metrics. Except for bursty MAX bits feeds it's pretty good (Real max of 25, system shows full burst max at 28 still working on why it's less consistent than our cacti). I am going to attempt a roll out of the Route Servers config additions in the next couple of weekends.

Re: Please welcome Fastly to MICE!

The folks on NWAX are using IXPManager (https://github.com/inex/IXP-Manager) as well as others. AFAIK, this automates lots of this process (DNS, route-servers, etc) and pulls things from PeeringDB.

Re: Please welcome Fastly to MICE!

There is also a peeringDB API. It might be time for a database driven documentation. Then we could export/import to dns or switch configs. An online request form might be a good start.

Re: Please welcome Fastly to MICE!

The exchange only cares about the max prefix value if it's larger than our default route server limit of 1000. That's a big network, and I think we've only hit that once. I'm not sure we need to bother getting an explicit number from every network on turn-up. On the PeeringDB thing... I've thought about that before too. Is *requiring* an entry going too far? I'm on the fence about that. I see that SIX links the AS number in the participants list to PeeringDB rather than bgp.he.net. I like the bgp.he.net links, but I should see if I can find some place on the list to put a PeeringDB link. -- Richard
