Upgrading spike doubled some ISP traffic; 12 percent worldwide Internet
usage jump

...

Analytics company Mixpanel estimates that more than 130 million users
had updated their devices within the first 10 hours of availability, out
of a potential iOS 7-eligible base of 415 million.

...

The spikes, reported by The Guardian in the UK, focus on British ISP
reports and show that demand hit its peak about 3.5 hours after the
official release. This would have been around the time Apple servers
began to recover from the initial wave of downloaders as users struggled
in the first few hours to download the free iOS upgrade, which ranged in
size from 750MB to 1.4GB depending on what device was being updated.

...

At one point in the initial surge, a British Telecom (BT) spokesperson
reported that the provider was seeing traffic of over 200 Gigabits per
second, the highest the company has ever recorded. Lonap said that
overall high-use traffic, which averages up to 30 Gigabits per second,
spiked to just under 60Gb per second late Wednesday evening as the
upgrade became available, and raised the daily peak time traffic to
nearly 40Gb per second on Thursday.

The paper also reported that Germany's Berlin Internet Exchange saw
traffic rise precipitously -- more than 10Gb per second over normal
traffic levels -- as iOS 7 came online. Data from Akamai, a company that
distributes and manages Internet backbone traffic, suggested that
overall worldwide usage jumped 12 percent above normal levels as the
download became available.

Routes from AS17299 via AS24246

2013-09-21 Thread George B.
I would be much obliged of folks (peers of AS24246 -- InterNAP Hong Kong --
in particular) would adjust their filters to accept 216.239.98.0/24 and
216.231.203.0/24 announced from AS17299 via AS24246.  You should also see
those routes from AS17819 but it is the 24246 path that causing me hardship.

Thanks

(yeah, I'll get them in a routing registry next week if that will help)

you don't appear to be on the whois list for that block nor asn... so,
why would someone accept this block on your say-so? Are you asking as
a customer of the ASN or as the ASN owner/operator?

Because it is being announced by the ASN that is owned by the same company
that owns the address block.  Look up the originating ASN,  look up the IP
block.  You don't have to take MY word for it but I am employed by that
company.  That's why.

And yeah, I am still associated with my former employer, I'm not on the new
employer's stuff yet.

$ whois AS17299 | grep -i bos

$ whois 216.239.98.0 | grep -i bos

don't see you on either of the whois contact sets... which was what
prompted my question originally.

$ whois -h whois.cymru.com 216.239.98.0
AS  | IP   | AS Name
17299   | 216.239.98.0 | IPASS-4 - iPass Incorporated

that seems kosher though.

Re: Routes from AS17299 via AS24246

2013-09-21 Thread George B.
Sorry if I a bit testy.  Have a typhoon bearing down on the region and the
primary connectivity for a site is apparently useless as the routes are not
propagating from them and I have only one single connection to the
alternate provider.  I'm trying to make the site as resilient as possible
under the circumstances.  InterNAP claims peers are filtering the routes so
I am asking for a favor.  Thanks.
