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

Conference Bridge Info

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.

Agenda and Request - UG 21
by Shaun Carlson Sept. 27, 2016

Sept. 27, 2016

All, Attached is the UG 21 Agenda for tomorrow's meeting. I've also attached the UG 20 minutes for your review prior to the meeting tomorrow. I also have a request. I'm looking for a volunteer to take minutes on behalf of the board for this meeting as I will be unable to attend. We had an unexpected death this weekend of a long-term Arvig employee and it's having a great impact on my team. I need to be at our locations this week to be part of the support and recovery process. I appreciate your understanding in this matter and would not, normally, miss a meeting as important as this. As an FYI, I've communicated this to the board and am working on sharing all relevant files (to include the non-profit information) to the board for access. Please let me know if you're willing to take and distribute minutes and I'll get you the relevant files and instructions. I truly appreciate what this organization does, what it means for the state and I'm honored to have been able to serve you in this capacity for the last few years. I, and Arvig, still plan to be an active part of MICE and support it in whatever capacity best fits the needs of the organization and it's members. Thank you! s *Shaun Carlson*Director of Information Technology | Arvig ph: (218) 346-8673 | em: shaun.carlson(a)arvig.com

Re: Congrats at 100G
by Jeremy Lumby Sept. 27, 2016

Sept. 27, 2016

We probably would have still made it without Yahoo. I think their growth has been slowed a little bit since they are bilateral only and I don't think that everyone has gotten around to setting up their bgp sessions. I wonder if it is worth posting invitations like theirs to the announce list since many of the network admins at the eyeball networks don't follow the discuss list so that they can keep the chatter in their inboxes lower.

IPv6 usage
by Frank Bulk Sept. 25, 2016

Sept. 25, 2016

It appears the JunOS is able to break out the amount of IPv6 (https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos16.1/topics/reference/comm…) on an interface. Does the EX4200 also support the IP MIB (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4293#section-3.2.3)? If so, it would be great to graph the amount and percentage of IPv6 traffic on most, if not all, interfaces. Frank

The following are still pending: ipHouse Remote Switch PCH Sandwich.net Velocity Telephone One port move is still pending: Wikstrom Telephone Company (still active on their current port) I have not historically checked for disconnections. I gave the Cacti graphs a quick read-through, and did some ping & route checks. I wouldn't consider it exhaustive, but I don't see any disconnections. -- Richard
