Thank you for the feedback. Attached is a PDF and ODG document with the changes that have been discussed. Richard mentioned he would put them on the website.

I agree that the ON LOAN notation is the only one that should be there since it is a technical document, and we need to plan to give it back as soon as we can feasibly upgrade out of it. -----Original Message----- From: MICE Discuss [mailto:MICE-DISCUSS@LISTS.IPHOUSE.NET] On Behalf Of Richard Laager Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2016 12:58 AM To: MICE-DISCUSS(a)LISTS.IPHOUSE.NET Subject: Re: [MICE-DISCUSS] MICE Equipment Diagram While I certainly appreciate the donations and absolutely support crediting donors (which we do on the website), I don't see a need to list them on the diagram, since it has no technical bearing.

These DNS names are in place. I'll definitely get this on the website. But we really should have the original source too, not just the PDF. If you want the easy way, just email me both files.

We initially donated two servers for the route servers, and I believe donated either parts or another one to replace a failing one at some point. I would have to look back in emails with Doug to confirm. -Nevin -- Nevin Lyne -- Founder & Director of Technology -- Arcustech, LLC. - arcustech.com -- Gippy's Internet Solutions, LLC. - enginehosting.com

Please elaborate if not. It looks to be for me. There is one other thing that could be added. There is also a "looking glass/route view" router setup that is hanging off ge-0/0/0 on the 1G switch stack. It's DNS name is lg.micemn.net. If you wanted to note who donated it, it was MNVoIP. I call the 10G switch stack 'core-sw1.micemn.net', and the 1G switch stack 'core-sw2.micemn.net'. These DNS names are in place. You could note who donated the route server hardware. I believe Arcustech did one, and Implex did one, and maybe ipHouse had one of them in the mix? I left spare hardware down there ready to plug in if ever needed to. Lots of people offered, so sorry if I don't remember right. -- Doug McIntyre <merlyn(a)iphouse.net> ~.~ ipHouse ~.~ Network Engineer/Provisioning/Jack of all Trades

MICE Equipment Diagram

by Mike Johnston

Attached is a diagram that I have have built depicting the MICE equipment and the remote switches. I have included a few notes provided by Jeremy. I have also included port and LAG descriptors, which I was able to obtain from list archives, the website, and cacti. This diagram is mostly intended to be a visual aid when having technical discussion. Diagramming individual participants was not included in the scope of this project. I am interested in constructive feedback, specifically: 1) Is it accurate? Please elaborate if not. 2) Is anything missing that is important to note? For example, is it important to note the management interfaces of the Route Servers? Obviously, we can only put so much information on a single sheet of paper. 3) Is anything not completely obvious? If not, then I need better notes, a key/legend, etc.. Thanks, Mike Johnston Wikstrom Telephone Company

Re: Traffic Drop

by Jason Hanke

Neutral Path had a fiber cut just south of our MSP1 site (in Belle Plaine) about 1 pm yesterday. It looks like there was a bunch of CDN-ish traffic surge during the day.
