[AusNOG] Netflix Peering in AU

Tue Mar 24 23:01:30 EST 2015

Interesting.

My smart TV is still configured to use unblock-us, and my IP is still active for USA content…. Yet the only IP it is connecting to is 23.246.29.136 (ipv4_1.cxl0.c017.syd001.ix.nflxvideo.net)

This would suggest unblock-us is smart enough to know where to send me now (I did notice they only made “Australia” active as a location today).

*shrugs*

It works, so I isn’t complaining ☺

It is my understanding Seamus that this is ‘AU’ content only, anyone using a VPN etc would still be popping out into the US because of the DNS workarounds and this is not that traffic.

So I guess I have to ask…. Is this just the typical Netflix usage, or has Australia actually exploded into Netflix today?
I would assume before today any Netflix content was being pulled from the USA, now that it is here in Australia, all the people using vpn/dns services to get around geo-blocking are just hitting the content locally.

We may never know… unless Netflix discloses signup statis for the next few weeks.

Well they say in the US it's up to 30% so I'd say it's possible it's at least 10% currently

So considering NSWIX shows the aggregate for the exchange at 40Gbps or so at present, and Netflix is responsible for approx 5% of it, and as NSW is fairly representative of the rest of the nation give or take....

..

My question is....
Does that mean Netflix is currently 10% of all Australian Internet usage at this point in time?

Looks like Australian usage of NetFlix has suddenly spiked past the 2 GB Mark.

Well done Netflix + NSW-IX getting the traffic as close to eyeballs as possible!

Hey Tony,

That colour is actually “peak” usage. :)

What's also suspicious about that graph is that the lines for traffic IN & OUT are the same (on top of each other). I would have expected any content provider(esp. netflix) it should be heavily skewed in one direction ?

With some downtime between. Looks like a re-used port and the cacti data hasn't been flushed.

What I'm curious about is that Netflix isn't open for Australian market until late March and they have 600Mbps of traffic on NSW-IX.

Weird. Does anyone else notice that the NSW-IX graph goes back to May last year?
