Re: Whats going on at Cogent

Oh that's disturbing . We just signed up a few months ago for a circuit 
at an MMR and are still waiting for delivery.

Speaking of Cogent service (and I know you guys are watching), I'd love
to get someone's help off-list turning up a p2p that has been moved to
billing despite being told loud and clear it doesn't work. I
half-expected it to not work when I found out there was a type 2
provider involved, but I definitely did not expect to be billed for
it...

Agreed. A couple IXes, Cogent, HE, and a couple others. Add more IXes and

I guess people really don’t like Cogent judging by the fact that one
unrelated email caused all this to happen again.. :-)

Cogent have more pain points on average but they’re still the best option
for getting to other Cogent customers.  It’s not really hard to design
around their shortcomings.   I’d rather have 30 small links and be
well-connected than two large ones and be SOL because someone refuses to
peer.

I can’t speak to their MPLS service, because cogent’s the last company I’d
ever trust with my backbone.

Apparently bought in two chunks: 3.0.0.0/9
<http://3.0.0.0/9> and 3.128.0.0/9 <http://3.128.0.0/9>.

Previous owner was GE.

Anecdotal reports across the Internet that AWS EIPs are
now being assigned in that range.

Re: Tech Laptop with DB9

2014-11-10 Thread Matt Perkins
You can pick up an old toughbook on eBay that have serial ports for 
reasonable prices. Put in flash disk and run linux for a reasonable 
experience. But for the height of convenience you cant go past an Air 
Console. http://www.get-console.com/airconsole/ Nothing beats being able 
to plug it in deep inside a rack and then walk back to a comfortable 
seat to work. Beats the cold data center floor any day!

Re: From Europe to Australia via right way

Some times you can get luck and go through SE-ME-WE3 (we it's not cut) 
but most path's are via the US.

What is your destination network in Australia.

you won't find internet packets going that way though (most of the time).
You can buy a L2vpn, p2p, etc, that will though.

I can attest that fastnetmon is a great tool for dealing with high pps
or high bandwidth attacks. Pavel thank you so much for sharing this!

Yesterday I deployed fastnetmon at a small non-profit ISP in Amsterdam
(AS8283). From the start of the attack to actually dealing with it by
announcing blackhole route plus /24 wrapper (to draw traffic via that
upstream), only takes four seconds.

Kind regards,
