Re: Special Online Meeting

I apologize as I've been very busy. The original plan was to have it next Wednesday. I'll send all of that out first thing in the morning and if the body doesn't feel that's enough time for the first of two meetings we'll reschedule accordingly. s Shaun Carlson Senior Manager of Information Technology | Arvig ph: (218) 346-8673 | em: shaun.carlson(a)arvig.com On Thu, May 21, 2015 at 2:36 PM -0700, "Richard Laager" <rlaager(a)wiktel.com> wrote: It's been another month.

This isn't Linux either. Cause. You don't need linux to be your every hammer for every nail. Cause that's my storage and OS nerding coming out. Wanna really go to town? GlusterFS with 3 nodes with replica=3 and one node not on same network. But that won't help the system from crashing because of potential firmware bugs going on as Doug has mentioned. That's the problem, not an issue of corrupted storage. In fact, as far as I know, there has been zero corruption of data during these periods of instability showing that FreeBSD rocks even when using ZFS and I bet would be just as stable with UFS. > If that sounds tempting, tell me where to fedex the ssd media & > caddy adapters :) SSDs always good though.

Note that this about who can be a member, not who is a member. There's the separate step of electing or appointing.

I originally went so far as to write "two or more". But in the end, I took it out as I don't think this matters. The Board shouldn't approve a switch that's not going to have any members. If they do and it turns out nobody connects, they can just de-approve it after a while. Also, they can hold up approving the switch operator's membership (separate from "approving the switch") until such time as there are connections behind the switch. If we were to adopt your proposal, I'd like to see it amended by striking the word "member". We should not assume that all connected networks are necessarily members. > Depending on how your legalese translates, this could cover a fiber > provider not otherwise associated with the exchange, eg a provider who > leases wave service or dark fiber to connect the 511 fabric to a > remote colo switch.

I considered this possibility. But, even if the fiber owner tries to claim they're eligible for membership, the Board/members need not appoint/elect them. > Also, are we afraid of using the term "switch" instead of the generic > term "equipment?"

I believe CNS still connects remote participants. (Halstad Telphone Company is the example now. Wikstrom Telephone Company was connected this way in the past.) This is done by extending the MICE VLAN through the CNS network out to the remote participants. It is not the case (at least it wasn't for us) that the remote participants have purchased a layer 2 circuit to 511 that they can cross-connect to arbitrary destinations. So it's not that they have a presence in 511 and are connected to a single, identifiable "remote switch". Granted, CNS is directly connected, and also runs an identifiable remote switch, so this is moot for them. And it may not be likely to occur with another network. But, for another example that might be more likely.... Imagine a carrier neutral data center operator carries the MICE VLAN through their switching fabric, whether that's in one building or more than one around the metro area. They might very well not run an IP network that connects to MICE. -- Richard
