During this afternoon's HE hiccup (https://puck.nether.net/pipermail/outages/2016-April/008962.html) there was a flood of outbound traffic on the Main Switch's ge-1/0/10, 12, 16, 22, and 23. Here's an example: [cid:image001.png@01D19FD0.2A25A860] Anyone know what that's about? Frank

Technical Training Opportunity at TOC Conference in Fargo
by Shaun Carlson May 4, 2016

May 4, 2016

All, CCI/Cisco are hosting a technical training, designed to be more of a deep dive, at the TOC conference in Fargo next week. There is no cost for the training except for registration for the conference itself. Attached is the flyer CCI created for this opportunity and the link to register for the session is right in there. If you're headed up for the conference, consider attending or sending someone to the session. This is my first run at bringing some deeper technical training to the region and I'm hoping to see it well attended. Thanks! s *Shaun Carlson*Director of Information Technology | Arvig ph: (218) 346-8673 | em: shaun.carlson(a)arvig.com

Montreal Internet Exchange Reaches Milestone
by Mike Hemphill April 15, 2016

April 15, 2016

All, Thought you would find this interesting relative to where MICE is at. I see that the peak last week was north of 72Gig and I count over 65 members. You are doing great things! Congrats!!! Mike Montreal Internet Exchange Reaches Milestone On Path To New Peaks, Reinforcing The Value Of Independent Internet Exchange Model Cologix Inc. April 13, 2016 8:10 AM QIX attracts 50 peering members who realize localized, optimized network performance and reduced costs DENVER and MONTREAL , April 13, 2016 /CNW/ -- Network, content and Internet service providers continue to ramp up interest in the independent, member-run Internet exchange model employed by the Montreal Internet Exchange (www.qix.ca <http://www.qix.ca/> ) <http://www.qix.ca/> , a nonprofit organization working to create a more robust, high-performing Internet in the province of Quebec . QIX recently reached 50 peering members, including some of the largest content providers and cloud service providers in the world. "It has been immensely gratifying to see QIX establish itself as a key exchange point, with traffic peaking over 35 gigabits per second (Gbps)," commented QIX Board of Directors Chair and Interconnection Relations at Google Inc. Sylvie LaPerriere . "This progress underscores the value of QIX as an important component of the Internet fabric serving Eastern Canada and the growth of traffic localization at the Internet's edge. QIX members are finding accelerated traffic flow, reduced IP transit costs and enhanced data sovereignty through the peering arrangements facilitated by QIX. The strong upticks in membership levels and aggregate traffic are a testament to the significance of Montreal on the overall network map." QIX launched in April 2013 with nodes at both 625 and 1250 Rene-Levesque Boulevard West and support from the Quebec Scientific Information Network (RISQ) and Cologix. QIX traffic is exchanged locally in Quebec , while non-QIX Internet traffic that originates in Quebec is often routed to major networking hubs like Chicago and New York City , then back to the enduser in Quebec . This inefficient routing often diminishes network performance and the user experience while increasing latency, costs and risk. "The success of QIX has created a new institution for the benefit of the Internet community in Montreal , which is a model for independent Internet Exchanges in markets across North America ," commented Cologix Chief Operating Officer Graham Williams . "Cologix is a proud supporter of QIX, especially because of the value the exchange delivers to the local Montreal economy and broader Canadian tech infrastructure." About Cologix Inc. Cologix provides reliable, secure, scalable data center and interconnection solutions from 24 prime interconnection locations across 9 strategic North American edge markets. Over 1,600 leading network, managed services, cloud, media, content, financial services and enterprise customers trust Cologix to support their business critical infrastructure and connect them to customers, vendors and partners.

None
by Matthew Beckwell March 24, 2016

March 24, 2016

Morning Dan, A spot check of traffic suggests you might be the only one affected (your neighbors on the switch look normal-ish). I think someone with a switch login will need to check in more detail for light levels and such. ~Matthew On Thu, Mar 24, 2016 at 10:00 AM, Dan Winkel <dwinkel(a)longlines.biz> wrote: > Hey All, > > I just saw our port to MICE go down.

UG 19 Meeting Announcement
by Shaun Carlson March 21, 2016

March 21, 2016

All, I apologize for the late notice on this. That's 100% on me as I've been traveling and didn't get it to you in a timely fashion. On Wednesday, March 23rd, we'll have an information session starting at 2pm at the 511 building, followed by our business meeting starting at 3 pm. I would ask that you encourage folks at MTA to attend the information session and that you attend yourself. This will be very informal and function as a general meet & greet to understand a little more about MICE and explore ways to connect to MICE if not already connected. So, bring friends. If you have any agenda items, please send them to me ASAP and I'll be sure to get them added into the agenda. Last, I have MICE lapel pins for any of you attending the MTA show! (see attached picture). Please catch up with me to get one or stop by the Arvig booth on the show floor. I have 100 of them available at this time. I'll also bring them to the meeting where you can feel free to pick one up and wear it at future shows. Thanks! s *Shaun Carlson*Director of Information Technology | Arvig ph: (218) 346-8673 | em: shaun.carlson(a)arvig.com
