Re: New Member's Configured on BIRD

In a way both are correct. The Northern Lights Gigapop (AS57) is the ISP transit provider AS operated by the University and is the AS peering at MICE. Northern Lights Gigapop is simply a DBA of the University. AS217 is the source AS for traffic from the University's campuses. AS1998 is the source AS for the State of MN and MNSCU's campuses. There are a number of other ASes that AS57 is transiting to MICE as well. I can create a new AS-set in the RADb containing the ASes that AS57 is transiting to MICE, if folks are interested let me know. Is anyone connected to MICE generating BGP or traffic filters from the RADb?

New Member's Configured on BIRD
by James Montz 25 May '11

Added IPv4 and IPv6 Configuration for City of Windomw (ASN: 46692). Welcome! Also noticed that IPv6 config for UMN (ASN: 57) was not in, so added that as well. Maybe its a matter of semantics, but the website lists Northern Lights GigaPoP as ASN: 57, NOT UMN. --------------------------------------------------- *James C.

Cacti Graph using SNMPv1?
by Justin Krejci 25 May '11

25 May '11

'micemn-gateway-2.micemn.net - Traffic - Gi0/2' in Cacti is exhibiting signs of using SNMPv1 counters (frequent gaps at higher bandwidth usage) Is this a known issue? If not I presume someone at iphouse can fix this easily. The "Fix64bit" plugin for Cacti is great for correcting this condition on the fly if my assumption on the problem is correct. ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MICE-DISCUSS list, click the following link: http://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=MICE-DISCUSS&A=1

Traffic between 10Gig & 1Gig Switches
by Steve Howard 19 May '11

19 May '11

The traffic to/from the U shot up today. I'm guessing that is CDN related? The link between the CNS switch and the MICE switch shot up to ~850Mbps today. Too bad that is only a single gig connection! It is great to have the traffic on the exchange, but we should probably deal with this nearly saturated link fast. Here are a few possible solutions: 1) Add another Gig connection. We'd probably need to pay FWR for a cross-connect (CNS is paying for the first one) with this option; 2) Use one of the new Juniper switches with a 10Gig interface and connect that to a 10Gig interface on the existing MICE 10Gig switch, then move some of the 1Gig members over to those ports. This would require purchase of 10Gig optics for the Juniper and the existing 10Gig MICE switch; 3) Move some of the higher bandwidth MICE members to the 1Gig ports on the 10Gig switch. Would this increase the FWR cross-connect charges for those members if they are going from copper to fiber? 4) Encourage MICE members on the 1Gig switch to upgrade to a 10Gig connection; 5) Ask the U to not advertise some of the members on the 1Gig switch to CDNs (if that is the cause of the traffic load). This is a bummer if you are one of the networks that gets left out. I really don't like this option -- we are finally getting real traffic on the exchange and then we'd be cutting back. What does everybody think? Any other suggestions? ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MICE-DISCUSS list, click the following link: http://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=MICE-DISCUSS&A=1

MICE Traffic
by Jay Hanke 19 May '11

19 May '11

We have seen a dramatic growth in traffic on the exchange. The GE link between the CNS remote switch and the Main switch is running about ~950 Mb/s. We're going to need to make some upgrades shortly to avoid degrading services. Perhaps more quickly than originally planned. We may need some volunteers and stuff depending on the course of action.
