Jay, Sure. Would you get the contact person my e-mail or get theirs to me. FYI: we have the following domain names: micemn.com, micemn.net, micemn.org Graphics are ready. The files total about 7MB. I'll e-mail them to anybody who would like them... Just send me an e-mail and let me know.

MICE Website Domain Names

by Jay Hanke

Steve- If you haven't already, can you coordinate DNS with enginehosting so they can get the content management system set up for the MICE website? Also, let us know when the graphics are ready to go. All, if someone would like to step up and get the ball rolling for some basic content on the website it would be great!

I'm not sure that the make and model of the switch in the core has been 100% determined. I think all of the options had a couple of fiber ports available. There were a couple of questions on required sup cards in the 4500 for 10G and also on the physical size of the 4500. ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MICE-DISCUSS list, click the following link: http://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=MICE-DISCUSS&A=1

Re: Fiber switch for CNS space

CNS will provide the TwinGig "carrier" modules. I hadn't given the cross-connect much thought. I suspect that CNS would be willing to pay for one cross connect. That seems like it would be fair since everybody else has to pay for a cross connect also. Does that model of copper switch support a small number of fiber connections so that we can use fiber to connect to it?

Re: Fiber switch for CNS space

by Steve Howard

CNS would provide the SFPs for the Gig connections. However, we would ask the participants who request 10Gig to provide the X2 optics. We'll provide 10Gig modules for CNS and the State of Minnesota. I'm not sure what you mean by the "carrier optic"? Do you mean the cross-connect from FWR? If so, we would expect the participant to provide that. Or, do you mean the connection to the copper MICE switch?
