Message-ID: As the time is getting close to the end of the voting period, I thought it would be worthwhile to remind everyone to go and submit their votes! I've done my best to keep quiet on the potential issues in this election, apart from my official statement (See my nomination page https://2023.apricot.net/elections/nominations/robthomas/ for information - Note that closed captions are available on the video for those with hearing impairments), but I think the other posts have explained it well enough. So please, take the time to log into your my.apnic account, cast your votes, and work towards making APNIC work for us! For those who don't have a spare Round Tuit, and don't want to be bothered doing it yourself, feel free to add 'rob at qldvoip.com.au' as a contact and ONLY assign me 'Voting' rights. However, I really REALLY encourage you to look into the candidates yourself. --Rob +61-402-077-155 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Firstly, however, I beg pardon for cross-posting; this thread appears in other operator mailing lists. I am trying to reach as many operators as possible. Please find here a snapshot of two datasets concerning access technologies in the metro area. The bar chart on the left (not on the right, as inadvertently posted on NANOG) summarizes data I collected last year from *NOGs; the bar chart on the right summarizes data received through commissioned market research, from Tier 1 and/or regional operators. The y-axis shows cumulative responses for an option; the x-axis shows monikers for the access technologies. A second snapshot shows the same data, but this time with each response weighted by a conservative estimate of the respondent's subscriber base across all geographical regions. Here, the y-axis shows an estimate of the number of subscribers using the access technology. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Sincerely, -- Ing.

Power retuned around 9:45am for supply B however supply A was still dead? then at 10:20am both supply A and B both went down again?. Currently it looks like supply B is back online as of 10:33am? but supply A is still offline so anyone using single power equipment on supply A only will be having issues ! I have raised a ticket with the vendor however no reply as of yet?. Will have to wait for the PIR to hear what happened.

I believe Aussie is based in Melbourne - I had a major outage on several Vocus services in Melbourne between about 09:10 and 09:40 this morning.

Currently it looks like supply B is back online as of 10:33am... but supply A is still offline so anyone using single power equipment on supply A only will be having issues !

Vocus and Equinix losing power over both rails, optical links dropping, etc sounds like a major problem in the earth or at a dist/sub station. Curious to learn the root cause. A team somewhere is having a bad Monday morning, that's for sure. Good luck to all.

Power retuned around 9:45am for supply B however supply A was still dead... then at 10:20am both supply A and B both went down again.... Currently it looks like supply B is back online as of 10:33am... but supply A is still offline so anyone using single power equipment on supply A only will be having issues ! I have raised a ticket with the vendor however no reply as of yet.... Will have to wait for the PIR to hear what happened.

Happened in NSW I believe a year or two back. The fact they lost both A and B feeds is just frankly bad design and should never happen. That said this is why anything critical shouldn't be housed in a single Datacentre and should be load balanced between a few or at the very least any decent business grade provider should be able to provide you with backup connectivity in the case of internet. Even 4G or 5G backup connectivity is better than nothing. This isn't hard to organize for most business grade providers and is the difference between a proper business grade provider and one selling business services on a residential grade network. Any decent provider should be able to give you multiple Fibre links if required as well. For redundancy I'd go NextDC M2 as that is on a totally separate power grid or even Micron21 for primary both these facilities are tier 4 so you can't go wrong. I certainly know Micron21 have backup facilities that work at any rate, I actually thought Vocus had sold and was getting out of the Datacentre space altogether. The Equinix facility in port Melbourne is decent as well. I'd go Equinix or NextDc or both before Vocus for reliability. The Vocus Fibre network is still ok as you get a few months free if you contract for long enough and it does the job. Regards Chad.

In-Reply-To: References: <18719e27-053c-2ec2-f48e-2b69d5114716@spectrum.com.au> Message-ID: The questions left to be answered for Vocus is why did it take 12 hours to restore one rail. Where was the static bypass and failing that where was the maintenance bypass.? Im guessing that's what it's on maintenance bypass now and the slow action may have something to do with the public holiday in Vic.. I shouldn't speculate. But it is fun. ?Something seriously let go in that UPS. If i had to put my electrical engineers hat on I would say their load capacitor maintenance was not done and let go. Or someone was working upstream and broke the natural/earth bond. But there's a lot of parts in a system like that , most modern DC UPS setups are fairly robust.? I once had 3 strings of batteries catch fire and melt down and the UPS didn't miss a beat other then spewing a lot of alarms. We moved strings around on the fly and nobody even noticed. The other things that seems odd is why did an A failure trip B. Sounds like a single supply is at surge/break capacity. Also a worry. But in the end we all have redundancy around 530 Collins right ?

It'd be great if others could also pickup LibreQoS and test it for their own requirements too if you can find the time - maybe we'll even end up with another interesting AusNOG talk about open-source network technology this year, who knows :) For the unaware - LibreQOS is tied to bufferbloat.net, cerowrt, etc, all of which Dave is heavily involved with.

So they have some crews overseas now for several years (unless this has since been onshored, though I'm doubtful). Many techs have remarked about how long the queue can be to speak with that team, language barrier, quality of staff, etc. NOC offshoring is nightmare territory - depending on how it's done. The national broadband network ought to be just that.

The > national broadband network ought to be just that. I'll mostly agree with that. Pure NOC offshoring isn't great. Splitting a NOC into two or three sites for follow-the-sun coverage can work really well if smartly managed, saves trying to find good staff for a night shift, although of course it does add plenty of issues on its own. Even just NOC remote from engineering, having a NOC in Brisbane, but engineering all done out of Melbourne has plenty of issues if you don't work strongly to ensure the various people actually talk to each other. Or, if you're large enough, first tier separate from second can be much the same. I'm currently working with our corporate network group, and it's my constant lament that I can't just sit in a room where their NOC folk are working to learn the things that aren't getting escalated, processes that don't quite work properly, and other things I might not see from reading their tickets. (The reasons why I can't just do this are long and far off topic for this) If NBN were spinning up a NOC in the UK, Ireland, or possibly the US/Canada east coast that could be a very good idea, but it wouldn't be the cheap one. If NBN are shifting things done in Australia as an attempt at a cost saving, I doubt it really will by the time all relevant costs are considered.

In the context of a national network though, much as with Telstra the people are its greatest asset - and while it can be nightmarish landing the right folk especially over odd hours, building out a collaborative powerhouse of a team on-shore is the beauty spot if it fits. Especially with NOCs/SOCs. Follow the sun isn't blatant off shoring as you say. Removing local functions entirely though will land you with internal chaos and severe problems down the track when trying to insource. Having multiple sites has its benefits (and challenges), I just don't think binning local makes any sort of sense with the NBN NOC.

We've done a few dozen transfers this week, and that (sometimes) helps sync the domain password in sometimes. Responses from Westnet have taken about two days on these issues, they've given far too many customers the boot to cope with demand.

I still have big, researchy questions about what the Net looks like there. I don't know what the fiber rollout's state is, how much fq_codel deployed in radios, how much mikrotik/cambium/ubnt wireless tech is there vs a vs juniper (does anyone actually configure RED on their juniper/etc boxes? Can you share packet caps of a test like this: https://blog.cerowrt.org/post/juniper/ ) I am very interested in optimizing transports and fq_codel/cake for wildly varying RTTs and bandwidths. Right now I am looking at the hardest problem there is, Africa, which is not running much faster that 10/6 mbit even in the best cases, and 90% of traffic exits the continent. How much Australian traffic exits the continent? (and if there are good resources on this please let me know? A BGP AS number to typical RTT tool?)

Message-ID: I am doing an AMA friday, in part about the $70B dollar USA NTIA broadband and BEAD programs, which are largely targetted at improving rural access to the internet. The target audience is one with which I am mostly unfamiliar, the directors of the 50 US states administering these programs. I am very interested about what y'all have learned about how to roll out fiber and fixed wireless right, in your country, so far, and what could be done better, in mine. Please let me know what you think here, (links to studies would be great, too) and/or come heckle! -- AMA March 31: https://www.broadband.io/c/broadband-grant-events/dave-taht Dave T?ht CEO, TekLibre, LLC From jaedwards at gmail.com Thu Mar 30 11:22:05 2023 From: jaedwards at gmail.com (John Edwards) Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2023 10:52:05 +1030 Subject: [AusNOG] curious about lessons learned from your fiber rollouts? In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: My tips: Rural networks are economically tentative at the best of times, they are low density and the majority of the demographic that they serve don't have disposable income for tech entertainment. Government funding likes to be directed to announceables, and nobody announces a maintenance plan. Budget accordingly. Driving time for maintenance personnel is going to become the majority of your operating budget. Build networks to be bulletproof and have no need for maintenance, and consider that the added expense of a ring topology or diverse path might still cost less than a single unscheduled callout by a contractor. For a rural network, redundant systems buy time to attend to outages on more relaxed timelines. Fixed wireless - is all about waterproofing, be it customer rooftops, cabling joints or especially equipment shelters. - rigging teams are at the mercy of safety standards, weather and personal leave, so you can't expect more than 100 days/year of productive work - a certain type of person wants to climb towers all day, and they may not be productive if you try and force them into a soft office environment on the other days of the year Fibre Networks - use a conduit that is a size larger than you need. If you have any kind of success you're going to need a second cable in that conduit at some point, even if it's just to do a graceful upgrade - always use a fibre cleaning kit - with single-fibre optics (ie: BX), put the transceiver that sends at a lower frequency at the far end. This gives you a chance to spot the difference between a fibre fault and a power fault John On Thu, 30 Mar 2023 at 02:19, Dave Taht wrote: > I am doing an AMA friday, in part about the $70B dollar USA NTIA > broadband and BEAD programs, which are largely targetted at improving > rural access to the internet.

We've had a range of clients reporting very intense junking behaviour with M365, whether sending or receiving, if there's a M365 tenant involved it seems to be hitting Junk for reasons that aren't clear. This is with SPF/DKIM/DMARC/etc all passing. I'm wondering if potentially a new policy has shipped which is over-reaching somewhat, as no bounce-backs are being received so it's a case of delivered-but-not. This is across a range of clients and clients' clients. If we'd only heard of this from a single client we'd not think much of it, though this is both ways and across a range of tenants. Would be good to know if there's any substance to it. As we don't run M365 nor have responsibility for impacted tenants, the request here is to check with the IT community. Thank you.

As we're one of the affected tenants, we've been able to dig quite deeply into the behaviour - in our case, it seems to be that almost all "new" messages in a thread are successfully delivered to us, but once it becomes a reply-fest it gets junked. There's some thought that it could be related to one or more links in our signature - not that it's a particularly large or "spammy" signature, though. No SPF, DMARC or DKIM failures here. No obvious reasons it would be marked junk - the SCL is below our threshold, etc. What's frustrating is that so far, it's only affecting some people in our tenant. I've not had the problem with messages I send and receive, but there are others where it's 90% failure. I do have a different signature file - very different formatting though it looks the same to the recipient. I was thinking that might be related, but no dice so far. So you're not alone but we have absolutely no idea what's breaking.
