<div class="pre" style="margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: monospace">That however does mean that Telstra's formal channels aren't working<br /> properly. If you can't reach the NOC via formal channels then there<br /> is a problem. No one should have to come here and ask for bad<br /> announcements to be withdrawn. Russell shouldn't have to do anything<br /> but enjoy his time off when on leave. While we are thankful he did<br /> react we all need time off for our mental health.<br /><br /> Mark<br /><br />

Having Russell and is peers on the list and in a position to help resolve problems in a timely manner is fantastic for our industry and our clients. Telstra is a big beast with lots of moving parts, yet I've lost count of the number of times issues have been addressed through this informal channel.

Even just a few years <br /> ago I wouldn't imagine someone with such reach into Telstra NOC being so <br /> accessible for truly complex issues - you'd spend half a week trying to <br /> get through their phone system to someone or email the 'noc@' or <br /> something and hope to get a reply in a few days.<br /><br /><br /> _______________________________________________<br /> AusNOG mailing list<br /><a href="mailto:AusNOG@lists.ausnog.net" rel="noreferrer">AusNOG@lists.ausnog.net</a><br /><a href="http://lists.ausnog.net/mailman/listinfo/ausnog" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">http://lists.ausnog.net/mailman/listinfo/ausnog</a></blockquote>
