IP address update needed for micemn.net
by Nevin Lyne Feb. 28, 2018

Feb. 28, 2018

Hey all, We provide the hosting for www.micemn.net and we need to move the site over to our new virtualization infrastructure, while we copied the most recent copy of the site over to the new server and IP space, was not sure who I need to: a) Update DNS to the new IP addresses: Public IPv4: 162.247.143.2 Public IPv6: 2605:f980:a100:8002::1 b) Who I need to provide ssh/sftp creds for the new server for updates to the site going forward? I believe this part is Richard Laager at Wiktel.com but never heard back after a direct email to him on Feb 14th. Thanks! -Nevin -- Nevin Lyne -- Founder & Director of Technology -- Arcustech, LLC. - arcustech.com -- Gippy's Internet Solutions, LLC. - enginehosting.com

Feb. 14, 2018

This is too late for MICE but I thought it might be of general interest. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Elizabeth A. Mann <emann(a)areon.net> Date: Wed, Feb 14, 2018 at 2:09 PM Subject: FW: HR 4817 PEERING Bill Here’s just one of the bills introduced by the House and was reviewed in the subcommittee meeting on 1/30/2018.

Arista Support Contract
by Richard Laager Feb. 5, 2018

Feb. 5, 2018

MICE is responsible for the on-going support contract costs for the main Arista switch. This was factored into the design of the port fees. We have received quotes from Arista. As is customary, the three-year price is cheaper per year than the one-year price. The savings is non-trivial, especially relative to our annual revenue, so I think it would be wise to purchase the three-year contract. The three-year contract cost is more than our current cash balance. After we collect this year's port fees, we will be able to cover it while keeping a reasonable reserve. However, we need to do something sooner, as it needs to be renewed this month. Fortunately, Arista has offered to let us split the order in two halves to avoid us drawing the bank balance too close to zero. Does the membership have any input they'd like to provide the board in this matter? -- Richard
