Re: Looking glass

by Justin Krejci

There is an old Cisco router in place now as the LG router. If a network topology change is being considered for the router, it seems like it would be a good time to swap over the *new* router, the one Jeremy and I mounted (less old hardware, less old IOS, and a bit more beefy hardware specs) a few months ago into the MICE cabinet with essentially a duplicate config. It can obviously handle multi-homing so one gig interface could be on the MICE network (as it currently sits) and one gig interface could go somewhere else (eg iphouse, USI, etc) with full Internet reachability. Especially given the bandwidth needs of such a router are quite minimal, I doubt anyone would have problems with donation. Heck, could even spin up a separate MICE VLAN for this second interface in order to just use existing cross-connects if so desired. Side note, changing out the router may require a few tweaks to the current traffic graphing scripts used for BGP route collections and what not, possibly other things/record keeping might be needed as well: DNS records, device/network documentation, some ACL's on the router for the possible new Interface being used, other things my tired brain isn't conceiving at the moment, etc. ________________________________________ From: MICE Discuss [MICE-DISCUSS(a)LISTS.IPHOUSE.NET] on behalf of Nevin Lyne [nevin(a)ENGINEHOSTING.COM] Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2017 1:14 PM To: MICE-DISCUSS(a)LISTS.IPHOUSE.NET Subject: Re: [MICE-DISCUSS] Looking glass On Thursday, November 9, 2017 1:02pm, "DeLong, Owen" <00000005a669d12e-dmarc-request(a)LISTS.IPHOUSE.NET> said: > Seems to me that putting a port on the LG server on the same network as the MICE > web site wouldn’t be a bad plan if there’s appropriate physical > proximity to make this easy. > > Owen The MICE web site hosting is donated/provided by us, but we are not directly on the exchange, our connection to MICE is provided by IPHouse's peering on MICE.

Seems to me that putting a port on the LG server on the same network as the MICE web site wouldn’t be a bad plan if there’s appropriate physical proximity to make this easy.

Re: Looking glass

Yeah, that seems like a bad idea. Generally speaking, folks should never really be carrying the MICE /24 in their IGP’s anyway. It’s a bad idea, and can be harmful. Not carrying it (and using next-hop-self) protects both you and MICE. The IXP prefix shouldn’t, in theory, really be reachable from any device not directly connected in to that /24. Does MICE itself have general use transit available for website, OOB, graphing servers, etc, where this LG (or at least 1 leg of it) could live instead? -- Andrew Hoyos hoyosa(a)gmail.com > On Nov 3, 2017, at 10:30 AM, Steve Howard <showard(a)paulbunyan.net> wrote: > > Note that the IP address for the Looking Glass is within the MICE IP space and probably does not have connectivity to the global internet.
