With the consent of the respective operators? ! Tried to contact them, but now answers. This is purely optional for the N-IX peers so far as an experiment: no leakage into the global routing table. Negotiations with operators are ongoing. ? Why at all? Because service is designed to get answers from the first one answering that are likely to be the closer ones. ! It's good to have also the most distant ones closer to N-IX in order to accelerate access to them. ! No, the system (DNS) sorts that out. Hardly any improvements to be expected. + VoIP platform being deployed for voice and IP carriers to push the idea, also in combination with ENUM + association DVAP e.V. formed as an exchange platform for exchange point operators + clustering idling hardware in the exchange point's vincinity currently in the documentation phase * there were no questions from the audience - NaMeX, .it - by Daniele Arena: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-47/presentations/ripe47-eix-namex.pdf * membership and traffic figures * FE and GigE offered via fibre and copper on redundant switch structure * moved to new premesises recently, eight carriers present * running an f-root instance * offering IPv6 and Multicast * joined the test phase of the Italian Public Administration Network * there were no questions from the audience - NDIX, .nl/.de - by Remco van Mook: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-47/presentations/ripe47-eix-ndix.pdf * German part officially started in November 03, too * remarkable growth in the non-ISP sector * usergroup VLAN a success * German site in Muenster about to be fully deployed, supposed to be operational mid February * there were no questions from the audience - Netnod, .se - by Kurt Erik Lindqvist: * http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-47/presentations/ripe47-eix-netnod.pd... * facts about Netnod * city of Lulea, north of Sweden, planned for GigE; built in cooperation with the city that will provide some funds for the deployment * FDDI eventually switched off totally * private VLAN to be offered * upgrade to 10 GigE in Stockholm and to GigE in Sundsvall * general T&C under review * phasing out DPT 2.5G * TPTEST, a performance test for Swedish customers, is updated * update on financials * services rendered at Netnod sites, distribution of connections used, traffic figures and patterns * update on i-root anycast status ?

Administrative Matters: Chair: Fearghas Mckay Scribe: Lorenzo Colitti (for RIPE NCC). Participants list circulated B. IXP operator wishlist for switches Mike Hughes: - The purpose of the list is to get together with other IXP operators to speak to switch manufacturers with a single voice. Exchanges are small but high visibility customers. The document has not been revised for a while. The questions are: - Shall we leave implemented items in the list? - Is there new stuff that is required? Keith Mitchell: - Please revise this. We have our own documents, but a common list would be useful. - We should put already implemented items in appendix saying which vendors implement them and which do not. Mike Hughes: - This could be done with a matrix of features vs. vendors. Arien Vijn: - The document should contain info on scalability of some of these features. We don't want important features on the slow path. Mike Hughes: - Yes, good idea. Keith will give us his requirements document. Maybe AMS-IX could share the results of their recent vendor survey. Arien Vijn: - A feature vs. vendor matrix might sound simple, but hard-to-access features (e.g disable acting on BPDUs) should be documented so other members know how it's done. Mike Hughes: - This could be done by adding a note in the matrix. Arien Vijn - Members might also contribute notes on how to enable certain features on specific hardware. Mike Hughes: - We should set up an editorial group for this document. As current editor, I will do this (including a mailing list). We should also include Euro-IX "vendor pressure" people in it. C. Customer-IXP panels Fearghas McKay: - We are looking at doing customer-member charters and see how people can build a set of commmon bullet points that IXPs and ISPs have in their relationship with each other. Is anyone interested in contributing to that work? - Question to the floor: Are there any ISP's here? Show of hands: Only 3. Any views? (?) - Are we talking of SLAs for EIXs? Fearghis McKay: - Not really, more along the lines of service descriptions. "IXPs do this, but not this" Simon Leinen: - In the interests of transparency and competition it would be convenient to go to an IX and say "the others have this, do you have it too?" but a formal approach doesn't seem necessary. Jon Lawrence: - The information exists, all you need to do is look at EIX web sites to find it. Fearghas McKay: - A lot of this can be already be done by looking at the Euro-IX pages. Christian Panigl: - I would like to hear from the ISP community. Is there anything useful for your business? What do you as an ISP see as an essential (new) service that should be deployed by many IXPs? Euro-IX is a closed forum so the ISPs can't participate saying what they want. Small IXPs don't know which services deployed by big ones are essential for ISPs and which are not. Keith Mitchell - The EIX WG meetings are an ideal forum for this. We could invite ISPs to future EIX meetings so they can present what they would like from IX operators. Kurtis Lindqvist: - We did invite 2 ISPs to the Euro-IX meeting in Lisbon. But does it make sense to have a list of ISPs presenting the same needs? Better a list of common questions from ISPs that we can discuss. Fearghas McKay: - Is anyone interested in writing a list of questions? Keith Mitchell: - We can set up a list of questions, but it's the questions we haven't thought of that are interesting. Fearghas McKay: - We can start with a list of questions and take it from there at the next EIX meeting. D. Migration experiences 1. Arnold Nipper: DE-CIX update a) Switch upgrade - We stayed with Cisco products because we have experience with them - During the upgrade one of the old switches crashed due to human error - Lesson: Don't do anything during business hours, even if you've done it 100 times before. - We still have minor problems with 10-100-1000 copper cards on 6548 switches: occasional BGP resets and a stuck port Alexander Koch: - This is not a minor problem, this is serious! b) Moving to new site - Site selection criteria were carrier reachability, financial stability, prices, support. - Chose Telecity - Link between old and new facility not resilient yet - This was much easier than replacing hardware. Karsten Koepp: - How many members in new facility? Arnold Nipper: - No connections yet (facility has been operational for 3-4 weeks). We have to do some promotion. Z. AOB - There was no OB. Meeting closed ~17:15.
