by Jason Hanke Aug. 1, 2016

Aug. 1, 2016

LTD Broadband is adding a second MICE connection on the main switch. Their connection on the NP Remote switch will remain. Port: xe-2/0/4 IPv4: 206.108.255.42/24 IPv6: 2001:504:27:0:6:045A::2/64 ASN: 394330 Contact: corey.hauer(a)ltdbroadband.com They will need route server config for this port as well. These ports will NOT be in a LAG group.

Good news from Akamai (Finally)
by DeLong, Owen July 13, 2016

July 13, 2016

We have resolved the router issue and we are now delivering almost 8 Gbps to MICE. I expect this will continue to increase as things stabilize over the coming days. Please let me know if you have any questions. Also, in case you missed the first few memos… WE NO LONGER PEER WITH ROUTE SERVERS at MICE. If you want Akamai Traffic, you must set up bilateral peering with us. Send email to peering(a)akamai.com If you send email to peering(a)akamai.com and do not receive a response within 48 hours, please resend your email and CC owen(a)akamai.com. We will respond to peering requests on a timely basis and we have an open peering policy. Owen

Akamai @ MICE
by DeLong, Owen July 12, 2016

July 12, 2016

Among the multitude of problems that have plagued this process, we have discovered yet another one. This time, it’s not actually our fault. It seems that the nifty new Juniper we deployed there is suffering from a hardware failure in the form of a memory failure which is causing a number of odd behaviors (such as forwarding packets in ways that don’t agree with the forwarding table). We are working to resolve this latest issue as quickly as possible and will continue to work to bring this site back up to full capacity as soon as possible. We apologize (again) for any inconvenience. Owen

Does the new "Remote Switch" section on the technical page match everyone's understanding of the remote switch procedure and obligations? If not, please suggest specific corrections and I'll get right on it. http://micemn.net/technical.html I'm not sure if we have a formal agreement document. If I get one, I'll update accordingly, and also upload the document itself. -- Richard

MICE Participants, We’ve had some reports of peering(a)akamai.com<mailto:peering@akamai.com> email getting lost. We are looking into those reports. If you have not received a reply to your email, please resend it one more time and CC owen(a)akamai.com<mailto:owen@akamai.com>. I will personally make sure to get your peering session established as well as add you to the list of missing emails to be investigated. If you were peering with us on the route servers and have not yet requested bilateral peering with us on the exchange, please also send an email to peering(a)akamai.com<mailto:peering@akamai.com> and CC owen(a)akamai.com<mailto:owen@akamai.com> so that we can get a session created. We are no longer peering with the route servers at MICE, so if you want to receive traffic from us over MICE, you must configure a bilateral peering connection. We apologize for any inconvenience and we are working to restore full service as quickly as possible. We currently have limited capacity up and running in Minneapolis and will be installing additional capacity in the coming weeks. Our current target date for full service is July 15. Owen

Charles Monson is the primary contact within WIN. All IP addressing will remain the same. Could the Tech Committee reach out to coordinate.

Fwd: Route Server #1 - IPv6

The correct link is: https://www.peeringdb.com/ix/446 On this page: http://micemn.net/history.html The link to Cologix 511 is broken.

Route Server BGP communities (& OS upgrades) - 5/22/2016
by Doug McIntyre May 23, 2016

May 23, 2016

Thanks to Chih Chen's help at the U of Wisc, I have testing done for phase1 of the BGP communities exporting that have been requested. (Phase2 would be doing prepends, but I'll have to lab up that functionality as I saw the export function grow 10 times or so before I stopped). Most of the delay was waiting for others to test with me. I plan on implementing this MICE site wide on Sunday, 5/22/2016, starting at around 10:00PM - 11:59PM. All the testing looked good to us during testing, the functions behaved as expected. This function is an expansion of what was tested before. ipHouse has had this export function on it since the end of winter. It is written to properly handle 32-bit ASNs (I believe, that part was provided by the BIRD WIKI author). And of course IPv4 and IPv6 make no difference. The communities supported by this setup will include 0:peerAS -- Don't export route prefix to this peer. 53679:peerAS -- Always export route prefix to this peer. 0:53679 -- Don't export route prefix to all MICE peers. The steps of actually implementing this would be non-eventful, but I know some will want to drop for it. ALSO, we really should upgrade the OS that is running the route servers too. So I'll be doing OS updates and other upgrades that will upgrade BIRD as well in the same window. BIRD moves from 1.4.5 -> 1.5.0. The release notes say it mostly is OSPF changes, I expect no problems in this update, BIRD has been very stable, and the OS has been stable in production use here. Thanks. -- Doug McIntyre <merlyn(a)iphouse.net> ~.~ ipHouse ~.~ Network Engineer/Provisioning/Jack of all Trades
