Re: CNS Satellite Cutover
by Dean Bahls April 12, 2018

April 12, 2018

Good morning! The new CNS satellite has been cut into service. Traffic seems to be flowing normally. Holler if you see potential issues that we might have caused. Thanks, Dean From: Dean Bahls <dean.bahls(a)cooperative-networks.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2018 6:39 AM To: 'MICE Discuss' <MICE-DISCUSS(a)LISTS.IPHOUSE.NET> Subject: CNS Satellite Cutover Good morning MICEers! Sorry for the short notice, but CNS will be cutting to a new switch tomorrow morning (4/12/18) at around 10:00am. Yes, that seems like an odd time to do maintenance, but with all of the Netflix caching going on between 2:00am and 9:00am, this is about the slowest part of the day anymore. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you!

Old MICE Traffic Levels
by Jeremy Lumby April 10, 2018

April 10, 2018

I took the MICE display that was next to the Cologix Suite 200 entry in order to update it. When I opened it I was surprised that on the back was a previous version from when the MICE traffic was under 10G. It was a great surprise, so I attached a picture for your appreciation of how far we have come. I plan on keeping all previous versions on the back of the frame to preserve some history.

MN VoIP Extension switch link upgrade
by Jeremy Lumby April 7, 2018

April 7, 2018

On Saturday 4/7/2018 at approx 2pm MN VoIP will be cutting the link to their MICE extension switch from 10G to 40G. BGP will be blocked ahead of time to allow traffic to gracefully reroute. The estimated downtime will be less than 5 minutes.

MICE Google Global cache issues?
by Colin Murphy April 6, 2018

April 6, 2018

Hi, Since Monday we've been having issues with mobile devices accessing YouTube and Google Play store via IPv6. Our symptoms with YouTube app is mostly with Apple IOS devices. When a user loads a video, the ads will play fine and then the video will start and play for 5 seconds and stop. Browsing youtube via a web browser on the IOS devices seems fine. With Android devices, users can't download apps from the play store. Is anyone else experiencing these issues with their peering with the Google Global Cache at MICE? Thanks, Colin Murphy Sr. Network Engineer Office of Information Technology University of Minnesota Northern Lights Gigapop Desk: 612-626-0870

Broadcast Traffic
by Jeremy Lumby April 3, 2018

April 3, 2018

I have been watching the broadcast traffic on MICE steadily increase. We are now at the point where our broadcast traffic is 10X that of many exchanges that are larger than us. I would encourage the membership to look over the configuration of their peering routers to make sure that they are configured in a way that they are not generating excessive broadcast traffic. In the past on the list we have referenced the Amsterdam Internet Exchange configuration guidelines. I feel that the router specific configuration hints are a great starting point to be sure that your router is configured properly. https://ams-ix.net/technical/specifications-descriptions/config-guide Jeremy Lumby Minnesota VoIP 9217 17th Ave S Suite 216 Bloomington, MN 55425 Main: 612-355-7740 x211 Direct: 612-392-6814 EFax: 952-873-7425 jlumby(a)mnvoip.com
