Splitting ARIN assignment

2008-05-22 Thread James Kelty

Hey all,

I'm looking for an opinion from the group. I have an ARIN /21 assignment 
and a new requirement for a second data center. Rather than ask for 
another assignment, I would like to advertise one /22 from one location 
and the other /22 from the second location both with the same asn. My 
apps will work that way, so I don't have an issue internally, but I'm 
looking for a broader base opinion on that.


Thanks a lot!

RE: Splitting ARIN assignment

2008-05-22 Thread Scott Morris
As long as your upstreams/partners are cool with that, there is no related
designation between how addresses are allocated versus how they are
announced.

In other words, TECHNICALLY you could advertise a whole bunch of /30's
You just run the risk of being filtered and/or ridiculed along the way.  :)

But splitting the /22's from the same announcing AS shouldn't cause any
problems as long as you design your connectivity ok.

RE: Splitting ARIN assignment

2008-05-22 Thread Ben Butler
Hi,

I do appreciate real life is often more complex than high flying ideals.
But aggregation and general good practice would mean in an ideal world
you would invest in the internal infrastructure to connect your data
centres together with a network and run an IGP+iBGP plus advertise the
/21 eBGP at both sites to upstreams.  It could be argued that the cost
of building the network to run your AS is part and parcel of the expense
of opening new datacenter - rather than this ever increasing route table
growth.

Plus if you de-aggregate as intended you can not announce a covering
route for the /21 due to no internal connectivity and if this puts the
/22 under the minimum allocation size for the RIR block your IP space
comes from then don't be surprised when it gets filtered out and people
end up having to accept no routing to your network at all or, sum
optimal via a default.

But life is rarely as simple as ideals.

My 2e

You should attempt to advertise the /21 at each site along with the 
site's /22


If you dont have dedicated interconnectivity between the sites, 
tunneling *carefully* should do the trick.


This will ensure that if/when those who filter on strict allocation 
boundaries dont hear your /22, there will still be reachability, even if 
suboptimal, to your sites.

You can do this and it shouldn't be much of an issue.  Note tht if you 
change your routing policy in the future and opt to announce the full /21 
from both data centers, you will need to make provisions for connectivity 
between the two sites since both sites would be advertising reachability 
for the full block.

Re: Splitting ARIN assignment

2008-05-22 Thread Hyunseog Ryu
I I were you, I will advertise as following.

/21 Original ARIN allocation
/22 First half of ARIN allocation
/22 second half of ARIN allocation

In this case, you will have backup /21 route just in case of filtering
or something like that.
But in normal case, traffic will be routed based on more specific
routes, which are /22s.

In some case, upstream ISPs may filter based on strict filtering, which
means all BGP prefix announcement should be matched with registered CIDR
info including subnet size.
In most case, upstream ISP will accept any subnet size between
registered size (/21) and /24 size.

Because of load sharing and traffic engineering requirement, it is easy
to handle those situation with /22 size.

Make sure that your two location is inter-connected directly, and have
enough capacity when each of location upstream connection goes down.

Personally, I'd go with the latter. I've done it all, from backpack 
(that'll start to be a nuisance, trust me) to laptop only, to a small 
square cart thing (I don't remember what they're called) that I could 
dump the laptop and various stuffs in.


My current bag is swiss army (I *love* it), can hold two laptops if 
necessary (and I've been there), and whatever else I think I might need, 
depending on the conference/meeting/work assignment that I'm involved 
with. I even carry a tool set, for stuffing in checked luggage when 
flying, and patch cables, but for you, that's probably overkill.


One of the things that makes me popular is that I carry a PowerSquid 
(one of the best inventions *evaire*), just in case.


The case is easier on your back, has nice handles, and even a shoulder 
strap, if you need them, has pockets and compartments forever, and fits 
in the overhead. I think it's called a Victorinox.

Following the advice of our host, David Diaz (Telx), care should be
exercised to make sure your laptop bag does not have the text "LAPTOP"
printed on it, as that would make it a target for thieves.
Additionally, don't wear white iPod earbuds, as that will likely lead

Re: Splitting ARIN assignment

2008-05-22 Thread Hyunseog Ryu
What if upstream connection - Internet - goes down?
If you have fully redundant system implemented from both locations, so
you don't need another site for operation,
that will be fine.
But in normal situation, there is some dependency.
Also, if you have massive backup and/or data transaction between two
location,
it may good to have inter-connection - private link - between both location.

Origin AS loop can be resolved by BGP configuration feature, or putting
default route back to upstream connection. So probably that's not an
issue at all.

Real issue will be data/operation dependency between two locations such
as DNS server IP address and things like that.

If you are 100% sure about that there is no dependency between two
locations, you may omit the requirement for inter-connection between two
locations.

I think some of this is seriously exaggerated. The white earbud thing is
pretty silly these days as about half the folks on the subway seem to be
wearing them. (Watch out if you have fancy Bose buds, though.)

Leaving a backpack unattended ANYWHERE is a really bad idea. A lock is
of limited value, but, in a room full of laptops, it makes yours less
attractive. If you are just going between your room and te meeting in
the hotel, off-load as much as possible. The backpack gets heavy after a
while. Don't take it to lunch. Drop it in your room.

Marriott has always provided pads and pens at the meeting, although I
prefer my own pen and keep most notes on my laptop.

As far as safety, the parts in lower Manhattan and Brooklyn Heights
where we will mostly be is safer than some other places NANOG has
met. (I won't get specific as I don't want to inspire people from those
places to fill my mailbox with defenses.) Be careful. Don't wander alone
after dark. Common sense, an uncommon thing, is your best guide.

I hate to break the news to the New York bashers, but New York is one of the 
safest American cities. This is not a controversial statement. 

New York has a lower incidence of crime than Miami, Detroit, Seattle, Los 
Vegas, Houston, Atlanta, DC, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia.

While I generally agree with what Rod is saying, saying "NYC is safe" is
like saying "all routers are cisco"

There are safe areas, and there are not safe areas. I don't know how the
Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn bridge rates, but I don't think I'd be
overly concerned. And, since people going to NANOG tend to have a
herding instinct, there shouldn't be a problem.

Yes, but in at least most of those locations, my Florida or Utah CCW is

Interesting data, but potentially skewed due to population differences.
New York City's metropolitan area population is 18,818,536, whereas
Miami is only 5,919,036.

Miami:  7116.2 per 100,000 = 0.071162 crimes per person
0.071162 * 5919036 = 421,210.44 crimes

NYC:2771.0 per 100,000 = 0.02771 crimes per person
0.02771 * 18818536 = 521,461.63 crimes

So it's not really that there is less crime, there's just less chance of
a particular person being the perpetrator or victim.

Also, my population numbers are based on 2006 data provided by
Wikipedia, and therefore are not to be trusted.

Now that we have television shows like Miami Vice (which are available here in

of New York. It is all a question of what cities are used as the background for 
the crime shows. :)

Probably if you stick to common sense, it will be o.k.
If you see broken windows and/or lots of graffiti in the wall,
probably I wouldn't go there. ^>^

Since you will be seeing more people in NYC area,
you may get some stress to see lots of people,
but overall it's not that bad.
Just stick to your instinct, and common sense.

There is nothing to be afraid. Just remember, carry around an unlimited

Re: Hauling gear around a NANOG meeting

2008-05-22 Thread Hyunseog Ryu
One more thing...
Rent-car may be not a good idea.
Sometimes it's hard to find the parking spot. ^.^
As Andrew said, it will be better to use public transportations such as
cab, bus, and sub-way.
It may take more time, but sometimes the driving style of New Yorker may
be a little bit offensive, and finding parking lot may be a challenge. :-)
If you are one of owls, there are plenty of places you can visit in
night/early morning when you are not in the mood for sleeping ^>^

Now that we have television shows like Miami Vice (which are available here in

the crime shows. :)

Then Honolulu must seem as a crime infested city to the rest of the world.  
There have been a gazillion shows like that here.  (Hawaii 5-0, Magnum PI,

Hi everyone,

Following the discussion on nanog-futures, we'd like to let you all know
that the [NANOG] in the subject line and the three extra info lines
mailman appends will be dropped from all future messages going to the
NANOG list, starting in around 24 hours from now.

If any of you have you changed your  e-mail filtering
to depend on the [NANOG] subject tag, please consider this 24 hours
notice to move to another message filtering technique.

Best wishes,

philip

The announcement was made to nanog-announce, but not to nanog. I would  
expect that there are scads more readers of nanog than of nanog  
announce.


For some, that could cause unexpected results, especially with the 24  
hour notice.


Corroborative detail below. (Oops, top posting)
