[AusNOG] PIPE NSW Changing Details

[Brad Gould]

My understanding is that this is all about their change control policy.

Change the MAC on your router and book a window to change it back to the native MAC when Pipe can get their process sorted.

Dependent on your make of router, it may just be easier to change the MAC address for the interface on the new router to match the old router's one.

For someone who might get a LOT of their traffic via PIPE IX this would be a pretty bad amount of downtime, as other transit links would have to pick up the slack.
