Agenda Item for MICE UG 34
by David Farmer 06 Mar '20

06 Mar '20

COVID-19 Planning If/when there is an outbreak of COVID-19 in the Twin Cities or greater region serviced by MICE are there any policies the MICE community wants to implement? For example, a daytime change freeze, especially given the expected increase in the prevalence of remote work or remote teaching as a response to an outbreak.

Meeting Agenda Item
by Jeremy Lumby 04 Mar '20

04 Mar '20

With the upcoming MICE meeting I would like to put something on the agenda for discussion. It is a hot topic, however I would like to propose what I hope would be a small/easy tweak (famous last words). It seems like our port fees are a bit out of date. In general I think 1G and 100G are fine where they are, I would like to revisit pricing on multiple 10G ports. Originally the second port was made more expensive to push upgrades to 40/100G ports because of a lack of 10G ports. With so many people adopting 100G, I feel we have sufficient 10G capacity that the second 10G port should cost the same $250 as the original port. Possibly there should still be a higher price after the 3rd port since at that point they could move to a 40G QSFP port.

Game or Apple update traffic spike?
by Darin Steffl 20 Feb '20

20 Feb '20

Our transit traffic is way up today compared to normal. It started around 1:30am and we're at levels now that we normally see at 9pm for transit. Our peering is at a normal level. Lots of traffic from Edgecast and Akamai not coming through the IX but through our HE connection. Is there a new Apple release or something? This is bigger than any Fortnite or Call of Duty download I've seen too. -- Darin Steffl Minnesota WiFi www.mnwifi.com 507-634-WiFi <http://www.facebook.com/minnesotawifi> Like us on Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/minnesotawifi>

ARIN Policy Implementation Scheduled for the Week of 30 March 2020
by David Farmer 10 Feb '20

10 Feb '20

If your organization uses detailed reassignments in the ARIN Whois database for customers, you should pay close attention to this announcement. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: ARIN <info(a)arin.net> Date: Mon, Feb 10, 2020 at 14:25 Subject: [arin-announce] Policy Implementation Scheduled for the Week of 30 March 2020 To: <arin-announce(a)arin.net> Over the last several years, the community has been discussing ARIN policy regarding how reallocations and reassignments are made to downstream organizations. As a result of these discussions, two new policies will be implemented in the coming weeks. These new policies may impact you, your downstream customers, and your automated SWIP scripts or email templates for detailed reassignments and reallocations. The changes to our systems required by these policies will be deployed during our next release cycle, scheduled for the week of 30 March 2020, as previously announced. When the community-driven policy changes ARIN 2017-12 and ARIN 2018-5 are implemented, organizations will be unable to create Points of Contact (POCs) or Organization IDs (Org IDs) for organizations other than their own. A recipient organization must create an Org ID and POC with ARIN before receiving a reassignment or reallocation. We have been working actively with community members to determine the best way to implement these policies because they have operational impacts for our customers. To assist our customers, we have published a detailed blog post that explains how these policies will change detailed reassignments and reallocations. https://teamarin.net/2020/02/07/two-new-policy-implementations-coming-what-… We encourage all of our customers who reassign/reallocate IP address space to their customers to review this blog post carefully, and to take advantage of the upcoming opportunity to test their automated processes prior to the implementation date.

WiscNet Remote Switch / Dedicated Remote Switches
by Richard Laager 14 Jan '20

14 Jan '20

I realize I am sending this on a holiday. This does _not_ require immediate attention; next week is fine. ---- WiscNet has proposed a remote switch. I'm forwarding their proposal to the MICE-DISCUSS list per our procedure. You can find it at the bottom of this message. If you have any feedback for the board, please share on-list or off-list, as you prefer. Note that the listserv software sets a Reply-To, so if you are trying to reply off-list, you will have to _edit_ the To field in your reply. The interesting question from my perspective, which we discussed a bit at the last UG, is whether MICE should require remote switches to be dedicated to this purpose. It's my understanding that other exchanges, e.g. SIX, have this requirement. The last few remote switches have all been dedicated, so things had trended that way without it being an official MICE policy. The WiscNet proposal is for a non-dedicated switch which is bringing this question to the forefront. Requiring remote switches to be dedicated is intended to help protect the MICE switching fabric. It would provide a clean demarcation point, which is important for applying rules like one-MAC-per-port, etc. It also reduces the chances of problems in practice due to clean separation, less complexity of configuration, etc. Currently, the following remote switches are, to the best of my knowledge, dedicated: Zayo (formerly Neutral Path) Minnesota VoIP South Front Networks Compudyne The following remote switches are not dedicated: CNS I'm not sure about the following, but they're probably not dedicated: Mankato Networks Northern Lights GigaPoP* * This is something we treat somewhat like a remote switch, but I believe they pre-date the remote switch policy. Note that the non-dedicated switches are the original remote switches or their direct successors. I believe the consensus at the last UG when we discussed this was that: - Implicitly: We need to decide the policy. - Either way, the policy needs to apply to all remote switches; i.e. we don't reject some solely for being non-dedicated while accepting others. - If we require remotes to be dedicated, existing non-dedicated switches need to be grandfathered for at least some amount of time. Upgrades to new switches would end grandfathering. I do not feel confident saying there was a consensus on the actual question of whether dedicated switches should be required or not. If you feel I misjudged the consensus of the room in either direction, please let me know. If a dedicated switch was required, WiscNet would have to add an additional switch, which would look like this: [MICE Arista] | | 100G-LR4 | [WiscNet MICE Remote Switch ] * No VLANs, All Untagged | | | 100G-SR4 | 100G-SR4 | | | VLAN 123 | VLAN 456 | untagged | untagged [WiscNet Existing Switch] | | | existing | existing | 100G-LR4 | 100G-LR4 | | [WiscNet MX] [Iowa MX] The VLAN IDs (123, 456) are made-up examples. We discussed this and other alternatives off-list. WiscNet is firmly opposed to adding such an additional switch. If MICE requires dedicated remote switches, WiscNet will not operate a remote switch. They will still upgrade their connectivity to MICE to 100G, but Iowa and MERIT will likely be left out (unless they decide to get their own MICE ports). I (and I assume the rest of the board) would also be especially interested to hear from the other operators of non-dedicated remote switches. Feel free to reply on-list or off-list at your option. As per the usual remote switch procedure, after there's been an opportunity for comments, the next step is for the board to vote on the WiscNet remote switch proposal. Approving this proposal implicitly decides that non-dedicated switches are okay, at least for now. It is my view that we should _explicitly_ decide the dedicated remote switch question one way or another, so I will also ask for a board decision on that, but I cannot _require_ such a decision individually, of course. There is no specific timeline on this, but if you have thoughts, please share them as soon as possible. Finally, while this is already public knowledge, I'd like to specifically disclose that my employer's connection to MICE is on the CNS switch, a non-dedicated remote switch. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Re: WiscNet - AS2381 - Mice Remote Switch Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2019 13:22:44 +0000 From: Chris Wopat <wopat(a)wiscnet.net> Hi folks, sorry for the multi-week week delay in responding. I've attached a simplified diagram indicating how WiscNet would like to connect to MICE. The diagram is separated by three phases- Current, Proposed, Future. We are looking to transition from our current 10g connection via University of Minnesota Gigapop, to a direct 100g connection from the MICE core Arista switch to WiscNet's recently installed QFX10002. We would like to have the ability to share this connection with other Research and Education organizations that may already connect to our existing switch, as well as a few who may connect to it in the future. Known entities on the interested list are University of Iowa (AS3676) and MERIT Network (AS237). This list may grow a little over time, but it's likely that we'll be able to count this number entities on one hand. WiscNet is a non profit 501(c)(3) who per our bylaws (https://www.wiscnet.net/bylaws) primarily serve educational institutions and do not service commercial entities. When WiscNet recently reached out asking to become a MICE remote switch, we were disappointed to hear that a recent(?) policy change was made indicating that remote switches must be dedicated for MICE usage only. We will not be able to dedicate this device for MICE usage, nor would it be cost effective to purchase a separate switch just for this purpose. We're hoping that there's some middle category here where we're a switch + our few research partners, similar to how a few entities are set up today.
