MICE Renumbering Status Update 11/1/2012

Just a quick update of the MICE renumbering project, current as of 11/1/12. I can measure the hosts talking to the route reflectors, although not any private bi-lateral peering others have setup. Of the 26 active talkers on the MICE route-reflectors right at this moment, only 3 are using only the old IP addresses and not pinging for the new addresses. Furthermore, we're down to 10 sessions announcing only the old next-hop IP address. They have not yet changed their BGP announcements to set the new next-hop IP addressing. But that still is 62% of members that have completed the renumbering phase that we are currently in. So thank you to all those that have. It would be best for those 10 still on the old next-hop to get their BGP updated to announce their new next-hop IP address, as the next phase of the renumbering project is only a month away. Then, members will start removing the old range from their configs, and the people who haven't switched yet will have reachability problems getting to those that are following the schedule. Again, here is the cutover schedule that was emailed out: Addition of Address Secondary: before 10/1/2012 New Prefix Announcements: after 10/1/2012 Final use of old IP address next-hop: before 11/30/2012 Removal of old IP address range: after 12/1/2012 Project End: 12/31/2012 Thanks! -- Doug McIntyre <merlyn@iphouse.net> -- ipHouse/Goldengate/Bitstream/ProNS -- Network Engineer/Provisioning/Jack of all Trades ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MICE-DISCUSS list, click the following link: http://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=MICE-DISCUSS&A=1

We are bad people. We are one of the 3. We will push our changes tonight.

Another update on the MICE renumbering project as of 11/20/12. Of the current 27 active and participating members talking multilaterly to the route reflectors, I still see 7 that are only announcing their next hop address in the old IP space. The schedule allows members to start unconfiguring their secondary IP address in the old IP space starting 12/1/2012, thus those that have NOT updated yet may start to experience reachability issues among MICE members that have updated and followed the renumbering schedule as they update their configs to allow us to release and return the borrowed IP space to Airstream. If you have not updated your BGP sessions to announce your next hop in the new IP space, please schedule up a time that this can happen. Again, here is the cutover schedule that was emailed out: Addition of Address Secondary: before 10/1/2012 New Prefix Announcements: after 10/1/2012 Final use of old IP address next-hop: before 11/30/2012 Removal of old IP address range: after 12/1/2012 Project End: 12/31/2012 Thank you! -- Doug McIntyre <merlyn@iphouse.net> -- ipHouse/Goldengate/Bitstream/ProNS -- Network Engineer/Provisioning/Jack of all Trades ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MICE-DISCUSS list, click the following link: http://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=MICE-DISCUSS&A=1
