cablehead: if you're around, your VM is going down for migration now, fyi Another Xen VM bites the dust... and revives with KVM Woo! the network blipped on me up_the_irons: awesome, thanks garry! pc600: So what did you use for email? ordered a second vps loving the service! hey up_the_irons, busy? amdprophet: yeah; if you have anything besides a quick question, best to email support@ np, it's alright up_the_irons: I do have a quick question, did you guys get my email I sent a few days back? Arenlor: about the bandwidth monitoring? up_the_irons: Yes Arenlor: yep, got it, that info will be added to your Portal tonight up_the_irons: Alright. up_the_irons: i just wanted to check to see if you got the order for a new server from us and whether or not you have an ETA on it, but no rush Hey guys -- before I go complain to my local ISP -- do you nkow of anything that would cap receive traffic @ 5 megabit on a VRS It's pretty consistent 4.9x Shitty router, too many porn torrents, wireless? well, all are posibilities bad modem, poor lines amdprophet: yeah I got it pc500: is it UDP? the kicker is, is 4.8, 4.9, 4.95, 4.92 -- so something looks to be limiting yes, test with iperf udp flood pc500: yup, that's my outbound DoS protection No matter if I send 7 meg, 10 meg, 20 meg at it. ;) It only gets 5 meg Ahhh, ok. So poor choice of bandwidth test. pc500: if you need more than 5 meg outbound UDP, just let me know; but most people don't Trying to remove all the variables first :) I jsut use it to test shitty internet connections :) Is that an outbound limit, or receive limit only? haha I thought I pushed out more than that earlier. pc500: it's a limit in both directions TCP has too many variables for effective testing of raw line capacity. Gotcha. Can you bump it to 20 meg or so? indeed pc500: would you want this to be permanent? yeah I might use it from time to time to test. Arenlor - One sample -- if I have a 10 meg cable connection, and my customer (client) complains his ISP isn't delivering, and I need to open a trouble ticket, how do you verify this? Arenlor - This is really one simple way. speedtest.net Yeah, its' TCP, subject to testing limits of TCP not very good on long-fat pipes, etc. Sometimes, you just want a good figure of packet loss @ bandwidth figure Most ISPs promise only TCP ISPs deliver IP transit :) Read the fine print, they really get away with shit also speedtest has their pingtest anyway time to hop UDP traffic is indeed a source of a lot of problems YEah :) so anyone ever have issues with selection -> middle click copy/pasting in X11 forwarded apps? I don't forward X for a reason, it can get ugly ballen: Yeah, but they were also Java apps, so I think that's just complicating things. hello, I just shot an email to support@, quick question.. i signed up for a VPS several hours ago - how long does it generally take to provision the server? Overnight ah whats up with ipv6 keeps going down Don't use IPv6 so don't know. im seeing a lot of ppl ping out only on ipv6 email support and open a ticket so Garry will be paged he should be awake network things are pretty important to report as soon as you notice them i just setup a ping6 to google lets see how many dropped packets i get k since when is google on ipv6 btw? march 08 they've had ipv6 for years now ipv6.google.com i think they were one of the first to provide ipv6 sites nice idk about the first, but they've had ipv6 forever now --- ipv6.l.google.com ping6 statistics --- 377 packets transmitted, 377 packets received, 0.0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/std-dev = 31.084/31.437/42.560/0.764 ms i dont get it its pinging fine but im having clients on irc pinging out and lagging might be upstream somewhere, routing between ARP -> Google is likely fine might be somewhere else do you can an IP of someone who dropped? "Cisco X2-10GB-LR transceiver modules with a version identification number lower than V03 might show intermittent frame check sequence (FCS) errors or be ejected from the switch during periods of operational shock greater than 50g. There is no workaround." hahaha lmao 2607:f2f8:1280::feed is dropping take the hit its a bot though thats pretty local [ballen@arp ~]$ traceroute6 2607:f2f8:1280::feed traceroute6 to 2607:f2f8:1280::feed (2607:f2f8:1280::feed) from 2607:f2f8:1100::2, 64 hops max, 12 byte packets 1 2607:f2f8:1100::1 0.817 ms 0.819 ms 0.813 ms 2 fuzzypup.info 1.044 ms 0.790 ms 0.797 ms i have another ipv6 thats expirencing lag another one is dropping all at the same time no issues with resources on your server? well ipv4 seems to be fine cpu/mem are fine netstat -an, look at Recv-Q Send-Q see if any thing is backed up tcp4 0 657 206.125.175.2.36254 174.115.207.149.3471 ESTABLISHED look at tcp6 tcp6 573 0 2607:f2f8:1280::.51079 2001:590::c603:a.6667 ESTABLISHED but thats it nah thats fine anything in log files? which logs /var/log/messages, etc the daemon's log file just look over everything see if anything stands out yeah seems fine well I'd keep debugging with you, but I spent most of day debugging a stupid X11 forwarding issue at work, so I'm about debugged out soo I'm going to sleep good nght ballen night http://pastebin.org/74739 wow, that is so not cool. just dropped again poor Arenlor When pinging yourself can take a whole second... even IRC will begin to have issues. ipv6 having ssues
