I’d like to offer up a VM donation located in Madison, WI to at least run RANCID to grab config backups of the IX switches, as well as a backup target for any data (graphs, route-server config, etc).
Sure. Although I do have some backups of the main switch/bird configs located here in my location (not at 511, but still Minneapolis). I have considered adding the configs I touch to my RANCID, but didn't find enough value I suppose. I already had a tech list setup (MICE-TECH), but then I started thinking about who should have access to what, and what should be an archive (public? Semi-public?) of tech discussions, vs. something that may have a little sensitive value (ie. config snippets with SNMP communities, CoPP firewall rules, etc.). vs. most of it (ie. BGP setup & questions/problems). So I didn't really move forward too much in having people use it. I had thought of doing RANCID into the MICE-TECH list, but again, archives and access to them came up in my mind as problematic things.
