BFD support on BGP sessions
by Chris Wopat Oct. 7, 2016

Oct. 7, 2016

Topical to today's issues, WiscNet (and likely others) actively utilize BFD on EBGP peering sessions across peering fabric on various IX's where possible. This helps by detecting issues across layer2 paths without having to wait for the BGP hold time to expire. If anyone would like to enable BFD on our direct sessions, please reach out to us at peering(a)wiscnet.net, or to me directly. We use minimum-interval 500, multiplier 3 at various IX's with little issue. Cheers, -- Chris Wopat Network Engineer, WiscNet wopat(a)wiscnet.net 608-210-3965

EX4200 (1G Switch) Packet Loss -> 10G Participants
by Matthew Beckwell Oct. 5, 2016

Oct. 5, 2016

Greetings, I wanted to see if anyone here has any thoughts on a small amount (<1%) of packet loss I've been trying to chase down, specific to the MICE EX4200 switch. Aitech/AS13746 has a 1G copper port on the EX4200 switch. It seems that we're seeing a small amount of outbound packet loss (1G to 10G) going participants outside of the EX4200 switch. I might expect this going from 10G to 1G (inbound for us), but it's the opposite where we see the problem: 1G to 10G participants. Doug at ipHouse (ge-1/0/3 on the EX4200) fired up iperf and we did some testing. They're in the same situation: Loss leaving the EX4200. Specifically, I was testing over to US Internet (xe-0/0/14) but seeing it via Onvoy as well. The iperf test I was running was UDP, bandwidth of 69000, and packet size of 172, running in both directions. Essentially--emulating a G.711 SIP call (which is how I noticed the loss). I tested with no loss in both directions within the EX4200. Doug mentioned: >I pulled the VC chassis stats, but it has nothing for drops or re-transmits for it. Maybe some of our Juniper-centric members have suggestions? It's quite possible it's always been like this-- the loss is small enough that's managed to evade monitoring. I suspect everyone on the EX4200 is affected. ~Matthew

Maintenance Complete
by Jeremy Lumby Oct. 5, 2016

Oct. 5, 2016

I have completed the maintenance of moving everyone off of the old 4200, and onto the new one. Please let me know if you have any issues, I will be staying around 511 for a little while in the event that you do. I pinged each interface IP as I moved it to verify it pinged, then dropped, and then picked back up again once it was in the new switch.

1G Fiber Port Moves
by Jason Hanke Sept. 30, 2016

Sept. 30, 2016

The following ports will be moved from the existing EX4200-24T to the EX4550 from ge-1/1/0 to ge-2/0/28 --- 5 Nines 1G SFP from ge-1/1/1 to ge-2/0/29 --- ClaimLynx 1G SFP from ge-1/1/2 to ge-2/0/30 --- CDW Berbee 1G SFP from ge-1/1/3 to ge-2/0/31 --- Velocity Telephone 1G SFP The move is necessary to facilitate breaking the EX4200 out of the Virtual Chassis configuration. -- Jay Hanke CTO Neutral Path Communications 3 Civic Center Plaza, Suite 204 Mankato, MN 56001 (507) 327-2398 mobile jayhanke(a)neutralpath.net www.neutralpath.net

What's happening with MICE bandwidth this evening?

Saw our own MICE-facing traffic drop down, and I see MICE's own aggregate is the same. [cid:image004.jpg@01D2190B.83B53030] [cid:image003.png@01D2190B.83A5EDF0] Frank

Conference Bridge Info
by Jeremy Lumby Sept. 27, 2016

Sept. 27, 2016

For today's meeting, we will have a simple audio only conference bridge for remote participants. 952-562-5400 Pin: 6423 Since it is a very basic bridge, I would encourage remote participants to keep their line muted until they are ready to talk, to reduce background noise.
