CWDM filter bandpass is wide to allow for drifting optics. Anything within about 7nm of 1530/1550 should work fine. I've got some optics near 34 and 59 on order to do exactly that in a bidir single fiber arrangement. I'll report back my results. On 9/7/08, Bradley Urberg-Carlson, VISI <[EMAIL PR

Re: Smallest netblock that providers will accept?

2008-08-18 Thread Kevin Blackham
Your assumption is generally true with most any provider. They may even accept something smaller, but it won't make it very far if less than /24. It's also a good idea to announce a covering prefix in case some peer network filters on IRR minimums. On 8/18/08, Mike Lyon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote

If you don't need a full table or 10G, a sup32 6503 chassis bundle is very affordable. 8 sfp and 1 copper port for about 9k after discount. - Original message - > Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 16:17:12 -0400 > From: "Brant I. Stevens" wrote: >> Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 16:17:12 -0400 >> From: "Brant I. St

And in my experience (many years back), a nokia handset would start draining its ups as soon as it got a full charge, requiring daily reseat of the supply cord. YMMV so test and retest. On 6/21/08, Phil Regnauld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Douglas K. Rand (rand) writes: >> >> Phil>Altern

As a former customer of 7018, I was unable to get anyone with enough clue who understood BGP triggered blackholing. Retries and debates with regular MIS contacts lead to nothing. Perhaps a better contact is available, but I had no luck. On 5/27/08, Philip L. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Does any

Thanks for the reply. I'm aware of the limitations of this approach. For the same reasons you stated (proxy etc), I don't expect this to be foolproof or accurate. I'm only intending to satisfy a demand to "do something". We already dictate export requirements in the EULA, but we need to also attem
