Hi there, > Unfortunately, James is out of the country. Yes, I know. He is at FICIX, but won't he be back on Monday? > Could you give me some more details? This bootable cd will install a plain vanilla Debian distribution + a software router (Quagga) + looking glass + mysql and some in-house code needed for data insertion on a remote route collector (to be). The server in Moscow will become rrc13. > What files, who might know more about this and so on? I am not sure how good the relationship between BC and the higher echelons of ops is nowadays, but he does definitely know more about the CD than I. Bruce, could you help us out? Otherwise, I'm fine with waiting until Monday. Have a good weekend.

RRC00 down
by Vasco Asturiano 22 Oct '04

22 Oct '04

Hello all, I just noticed that RRC00 is currently down, apparently since yesterday at around 08:00. The host is reachable but Quagga doesn't seem to respond. In the case that the downtime wasn't planned, BGPd probably needs to be restarted. Is there a procedure for this operation? Thanks, Vasco

Hi there, > At ops everyone presumed these were shipped together with the > machines. No, this request concerns a customised installation CD for a Remote Route Collector that's already in Moscow. James, who has been working on this deployment, should know the details.

Re: suggestions for beacons
by Henk Uijterwaal (RIPE NCC) 19 Oct '04

Hi Morley, > Paul Francis, Ramesh Govindan, and I wrote this draft for setting up a > BGP Lab combining the RIPE beacons with other beacons. Please see the > attachment for more details. Basically, we would like to allow > programmable access to the beacons for researchers, so that it is easier > to perform experiments. We plan to provide the software to enable such > access. 1) How many users do you expect for this facility: 1, 10, 100, 1000? O(1) is fine, O(10) doable, O(100) will require a major administrative effort from somebody. 2) Our route collectors are there to collect routes, in order to get the data for the tools that our users use (myASn, BGPlay, all the queries). That's the number 1 priority for them, everything else (including the beacons) is a by-product. The problem with giving out accounts and have people configure their own prefix, is that people can misconfigure things. If this results in a lot of BGP activity, then this will cause people to loose confidence in the RIS project and perhaps even dropping peering sessions. That is a bad thing. So-far, we have never given any account to anybody, except for own operations, so we can control what is running on the box. This proposal would change that completely. 3) We have quagga running on the box to collect and announce routes, you have your own software. I'm not sure if they can coexist (but we can find out). 4) Address blocks: the RIR's all have a policy for temporary address assignments. I'm not sure, but I don't think that they allow us to have a large number of used /24's on the shelf. As far as I can see, these policies do not allow for temporary AS# assignments, this might be an oversight, but fixing it will take time. Bottom line: I like the concept but it will need a lot of thought regarding the practical implications. (Cc'ing some of my colleagues, who may want to add something).

Hi, Just a request: when a thread is started on ris-int could all who reply please keep ris-int in Cc: ? Cleaning up my inbox, I was wondering myself what the status was, not having seen any reply to Vasco's request for advice. Now going through the xrtt ticketing system, I see messages with headers like To: RIPE NCC RIS <ris-request(a)ripe.net> Cc: james(a)ripe.net, matthew(a)ripe.net, arife(a)ripe.net shouldn't that have been "Cc:ris-int" instead of personal e-mails? wasn't the ris-int list created for exactly that purpose? Cheers, -- Rene
