Akamai
by DeLong, Owen June 22, 2016

June 22, 2016

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

Airstream Additional 10G port
by Jason Hanke June 1, 2016

June 1, 2016

Airstream would like to add an additional 10G port. I have allocated port xe-2/0/20 on the main switch. This port will need to be in a LAG group with their existing port xe-0/0/20. Charles Monson is the primary contact within WIN. All IP addressing will remain the same. Could the Tech Committee reach out to coordinate.

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

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

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.

Email issues
by Frank Bulk March 22, 2016

March 22, 2016

Anyone else seeing email delayed sending to the Thomson-Reuter data center in Eagan, MN? We see email queued up for several domains that TR hosts, we see 70 to 85% TCP port 25 "packet" loss. The MX records for all those law/accounting sites point to 167.68.16.17 and 167.68.17.17. There is some delivery, but mostly not. Regards, Frank

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

by David Farmer March 3, 2016

March 3, 2016

Our traffic (AS57) to CloudFlare dropped significantly around midnight last night. I reset our BGP peering with them and traffic has recovered nicely back to what it should be at this time of night. I mentioning it here, in case something similar happened to anyone else, and you might want to poke your BGP session with them. Later. -- ================================================ David Farmer Email: farmer(a)umn.edu Office of Information Technology University of Minnesota 2218 University Ave SE Phone: 1-612-626-0815 Minneapolis, MN 55414-3029 Cell: 1-612-812-9952 ================================================

NO Meeting this week; Next meeting in March after MTA
by Shaun Carlson Jan. 23, 2016

Jan. 23, 2016

All, We don't really have much for the Agenda this time and some logistical problems with getting everything together. So, we've decided to cancel this meeting and we'll meet at the end of March as previously planned, immediately following MTA. I'll send out scheduling and updates next week and put out the call for agenda items. Please let me know if you have any questions or business we need to address! Thanks!
