mercutio: static: what about it?
static: the silly visualisation thingy?
gizmoguy: I thought it was cool
mercutio: i didn't?
gizmoguy: such a killjoy mercutio
mercutio: i tried looking around at it
i can't tell what's connected to what, too much data
all it seems to say to me is that vocus is huge
gizmoguy: the clustering is cool
so the right side of the map is new zealand
up_the_irons: lol i totally remember phtml; fuck i'm old
mercutio: i nwver understood why people didn't do cgi's in c back then.
considering the cpus were slow, and memory was limited
up_the_irons: cgi's in perl were much easier
mercutio: and perl was really slow/bloaty
up_the_irons: it was fast enough
gizmoguy: mercutio: http://nzix.net/nzix-map/#HIX-CITYLINK-NZ-AP%20Hamilton%20Internet%20Exchange%20%28Citylink%29,NZ
best IX in NZ right there
mercutio: well id id find the web too slow in general :)
so i stuck to irc hah
i can't see it gizmo?
it's just showing the wide map
actually mod_perl wasn't too bad
gizmoguy: mercutio: exactly
or does linking the fragment not work?
brycec: up_the_irons: ntp reminder
gizmoguy: anyway do a search for HIX and click on it
up_the_irons: brycec: where did we leave off? i think i swapped the conversation from my mind; need more RAM!
brain RAM
mercutio: ok
i can't believe they called it hix
hix finds chix instead
whcih is tiny
m0unds: hix is right below chix...
mercutio: oh it didn't bring up the search results the frist time for some reason
his has less connections than plain :/
gizmoguy: DTS is at HIX too, it's just not showing up for some reason
mercutio: maybe with ufb more people will connect to it
m0unds: http://www.nmix.net/
mercutio: oh dear, this looks like it's from the 90s
m0unds: it sure is
1997, in fact
mercutio: is it meant to be 256 colour friendly
hy is there dithering in the anti aliasing
10/100 switch for servers and router conenctivity
the main peering in nz started in 99
but there was some peering before that
but gizmo will know more about that than me i imagine
http://www.nmix.net/people.html
nice graphs
The page on pricing for connecting to the NMIX is due to be updated.
so what happened to nmix?
gizmoguy: yeah so I think it all started with "NZIX"
I even found the email post from Lindsay when it was decomissioned - http://list.waikato.ac.nz/pipermail/nznog/2001-August/003161.html
mercutio: ahh
gizmoguy: unfortunately it's a little hard to search for "NZIX" now :)
mercutio: yeah
gizmoguy: haha - http://wand.net.nz/wits/nzix/1/
we have network traces!

lolz. back when the internet was easy
mercutio: do you read nznog gizmo?
gizmoguy: yup
mercutio: see the post just now?
i don't quite get it
gizmoguy: from Dean?
mercutio: i can't see any labels
yeh
i just see lots of circles with a - in the middle
gizmoguy: the AS numbers are written in the circles
mercutio: oh
it's tiny writing
gizmoguy: at least they are when I load the PDF in google doc
mercutio: and google docs won't zoom in enough
gizmoguy: zoom in man
get better eyes
mercutio: i'm at maximum zoom!
google drive the app is currently unreachable
gah
brycec: lol up_the_irons no worries, I know exactly what you mean
(Also my computer was just throwing a swapping fit)
mercutio: hmm even when i sdave the image and zoom it's hard to read the numbers
up_the_irons: brycec: haha
brycec: up_the_irons: You asked if ARP should just point at my own, I suggested ARP has its own instance unattached to my account. You asked what was needed, I said a "small" would be more than enough. (think I gave some specific specs, don't remember) Oh, and Debian Wheezy for the image.
up_the_irons: ah ok
mercutio: hmm can you print it?
it doesn't work for me
brycec: (I'll leave the ARP management user on there, I'll set it up with user-login only +sudo for management, I'll set up ntpd and apticron, then I'm hands-off just letting it run, plus updates)
up_the_irons: roger that
brycec: think of a spiffy hostname
m0unds: dingus
mercutio: time
brycec: I was going to say "ntp1" bug dingus is good. So is hiccup
Also, tick, or tock
mercutio: or ticktock
you could always cname ntp1 to it
brycec: he probably will, but the admin side still gets a special name...
m0unds: a super scientific study of drug mentions on twitter has ruled that albuquerque is the meth capital of the us
"by a landslide"
mercutio: haha
m0unds: go figure people might talk about breaking bad on twitter
up_the_irons: not naming it dingus
brycec: SPOILER ALERT
mercutio: and denver is the stoner capital?
m0unds: lol
JERK
up_the_irons: try again :)
m0unds: CO
yea
whatsit
ant: up_the_irons: zeit
brycec: up_the_irons: Chronos
m0unds: throbbingdumptruck
brycec: LOL
mercutio: uhh
m0unds: filet-o-fish
up_the_irons: ant: YES
ant wins
brycec: I'm down with zeit
@wiki Zeit
BryceBot: Zeit :: Zeit (English: Time) is the third album by the German electronic music group Tangerine Dream. A double LP, it was released in August 1972, being the first release featuring Peter Baumann, who joined then-current members Christopher Franke and Edgar Froese. Overview The style of this album is slower and more atmospheric than their previous albums. Its atmospheric drone... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeit
up_the_irons: brycec: chronos is good too, but i like the German flair of zeit
m0unds: yard-o-beef
mercutio: m0unds has strange ideas on hostnames :)
m0unds: tangerine dream ftw
mine are all named after pelican songs
up_the_irons: m0unds: LOL
m0unds: haha
mercutio: m0unds: what aer your own boxes called?
m0unds: sirius, pulse, mammoth
mercutio: not quite so bad :)
m0unds: also wangsmith
up_the_irons: m0unds: tangerine dream could almost be a porn star name
m0unds: hahaha, yeah
probably is a stripper's name somewhere
up_the_irons: srsly
brycec: What /hasn't/ been used as a stripper's name?
m0unds: yard-o-beef
i hope
well, maybe a male stripper's name
or filet-o-fish i guess, that'd be pretty bad too
up_the_irons: lol
next time i go to a strip club i'm tellin' them my name is "yard-o-beef". I will report on the results.
;)
m0unds: hahah
mercutio: do strip clubs ask names?
brycec: Usually only when you're coming in the back door
up_the_irons: the strippers do
mercutio: i thought they were kind of impersonal places.
ahh just to get you to like them so you give them money
up_the_irons: yup
mercutio: i'd just say i was john doe probably
up_the_irons: they always ask names, try to be all friendly and stuff
mercutio: ahh ok
up_the_irons: what dif you think of acf's route-map?
up_the_irons: mercutio: looked promising
mercutio: cool.
up_the_irons: what's "z" in hacker...
mercutio: in l33t speak?
up_the_irons: yep
1337
mercutio: i think it's just z?
m0unds: h4ckt3hpl4n4t
up_the_irons: what if it had to be a number... or a-f... you might see where i'm going with this...
mercutio: so like z317
up_the_irons: lol
mercutio: for zeit
up_the_irons: yeah but i can't use 'z' in the IPv6 address :)
mercutio: UP_7|-|3_1r0||$ 1$ 1||70 L337?
http://www.brenz.net/services/l337Maker.asp
up_the_irons: maybe just ::3317 will do
mercutio: just do f00f or something
m0unds: hahaha
mercutio: b1ff
up_the_irons: 2317
mercutio: b00b5
up_the_irons: lol
mercutio: ofh it shoudl be 4 letters.
up_the_irons: 2 = z, close enough
m0unds: i'm boring and just use a, b, c, d, e, f etc
up_the_irons: zeit's IPv6 will be: 2607:f2f8:0:102::2317
upon second glance, that is as boring as anything else... bah
next time, b00b
mercutio: yeah ther's no nice way to make ipv6 addresses look nice
jpalmer: thats what DNS is for, making ip's look nice :P

up_the_irons: it's on one of our regular VLANs
mnathani: whats the max mtu supported on the dedicated nics for the backup lan?
up_the_irons: 9K
mercutio: nice
i wish "the internet" supported large mtu's
mnathani: up_the_irons: is there a sample /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 script for CentOS for use with the dedicated NIC
my attempt to initialize the NIC: Bringing up interface eth1: Device does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.
up_the_irons: no sample. it's just a regular NIC
the link-local that you should be able to reach is: fe80::21b:21ff:fe93:3e08
Guest32787: I notice pretty consistently my ssh connection drops, it could possibly be due to the internet connection I'm on but I doubt this because I've never had problems before?

up_the_irons: both of those give me 500 errors
***: mnathani has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
up_the_irons: Guest32787: well, to the rest of the internet, they don't know it's a broadcast. broadcast addresses are routed the same way. i don't think my core is going to deny that as a valid address even if it *is* the broadcast on your vlan. i suspect the same would happen if someone sent a packet to your network number (the all zeros subnet address)
so, *shrug*, i think it's normal
***: mnathani has joined #arpnetworks
Guest32787: yeah I think so too
I've never setup a network this way sadly so its just unusual to me
***: Guest32787 is now known as erratic
erratic: different stuff to look for
I just decided it would be fun to start up my windows vm, and configure the network adapter to bridge my laptop's vpn adapter and see if I can configure a static v4/v6 address for it and it worked
I kinda wish it didnt' because, the vpn client connects to openvpn, which deals/pushes a config based on the CN of the client certificate
and I wish it would only allow IP settings as per that config to be allowed for that client but oh well
http://www.petros-project.com/
up_the_irons: can I possibly pay for my service for the months to come in advance?
and possibly later if necesarry on a case by case basis just pay an additional $5 for 200GB of extra bandwidth when needed?
mercutio: erratic: you can just deny access to broadcast address
lots of people block it for various reasons
mnathani: up_the_irons: how do I verify if my mtu setting is working when accessing the backup server?
things like: ping6 -M do -s 8972 fe80::21b:21ff:fe93:3e08%eth1 dont seem to work
mercutio: you are using ipv6
you need to go smaller
erratic: mercutio: already done
mercutio: 28 bytes is for ipv4
mnathani: ping6 fe80::5054:ff:feb7:223e%eth1 -M do -s 10500
I meant 1500, does not work
perhaps not all switches have jumbo frames enabled
mercutio: not all hosts accept large pings too
just see if tcp/ip traffic works
tcpdump
and check what the mtu says
mnathani: ls works in a directory when I am connected via the linklocal ssh to the backup server from my vps, but ls -l does not work.
verified using 2 different vps
not sure if it has to do with the 9000 byte mtu
set the MTU back to 1500 and things are working now
mercutio: there may be a mtu issue somewhere in the middle :)
pmtu doesn't work usually
i imagine his switches are fine, adn it may be the linux host that it goes via
brycec: IIRC up_the_irons may have to set the MTU of your bridge to the backup VLAN
m0unds: ^
was just thinking that
brycec: lol
mercutio: oh or that
brycec: Hey m0unds quick question - how much bandwidth (network/disk) does one of your cameras chew up?
m0unds: um, lowest bitrate we're using is on wlan segments and that's 1mbit/sec
typical is 2mbit
brycec: That's no tooooo bad.
m0unds: that's 720p @ 30ips, h264 2mbit
brycec: Was talking with a guy tasked with quoting cctv for a school
m0unds: ah
brycec: (And wondered what kind of storage was required)
"hey, I know a guy..."
m0unds: yeah, it's not too bad
brycec: This school ended up with 900 cameras, and they wanted all video stored off-site
Much laughing was laughed.
m0unds: 900 cameras at a school?
-: brycec shrugs
m0unds: wtf
hahah
brycec: Big school I guess, maybe multiple campuses.
m0unds: ah
okay, then that makes sense
i was thinking..high school or something
brycec: (I really don't know)
m0unds: offsite video wouldn't be too bad, assuming offsite could mean different location within like 70km
mercutio: dark fibre?
brycec: It was for some city's public schools, and the way he talked, it was for one school. But doesn't matteer.
m0unds: yea
brycec: lol
School district was definitely looking to cheap out, so no fibre
m0unds: ah, so magic remote video storage
brycec: Regardless, that's ~3GBps...
up_the_irons: mnathani: for your host on kvr29, try the mtu thing again
m0unds: yeah, a bit goofy
up_the_irons: bridge was still 1500, as well as physical int; looks like i never made that change on that host (need to add it to puppet)
brycec: m0unds: Not very smart people are involved too... not surprising, really. I'm waiting for a multicast flood :D
m0unds: bwahaha
we're gonna be adding some cameras at an admin building about 7mi from this facility
our IS dept is having 70 pairs of SM run between here and there
brycec: Fun fun!
m0unds: yup
brycec: Welp I'm out again... adios

brycec and m0unds got assigned the same color and now I have a page full of cyan. (They had a lot of back and forth messages in the last hour)

m0unds: haha, i don't think houses exist in NM without some form of climate control
unless you live in a 200 year old half-buried adobe thing in taos or something
haha
brycec: m0unds: Up on the Canadian border (or close to) they do. Well most new houses have central heat/cool. But apartments are lucky if they have a little wall/window unit.
m0unds: yeah, i had a friend who lived in victoria and didn't have AC
but i said NM :)
not cananadada
my buddy's apt in southern california didn't have AC either, now that i think about it (seal beach area)
brycec: harsh
mercutio: is it just me or is verizon/comcast looking better tonight
acf_: not Verizon
according to smokeping anyway
mercutio: comcast has 0 packets dropped with 100 packets
acf_: comcast is super intermittent
http://kremvax.acfsys.net/smokeping.cgi?target=Remote.comcastnet
mercutio: oh wow
and verizon is slightly intermittent
maybe i was just lucky
now i'm finding loss
acf_: ah
mercutio: have you tried curl with smokeping?
acf_: you mean instead of fping?
I haven't
mercutio: or as well
it's pretty good for showing throughput
acf_: I'll have to configure that up
mercutio: it's not too bad
http://pastebin.com/2TNdU3tb
i forced ipv4 and noproxy
as i have http_proxy in envronment and restarted smokeping
and ipv6 gives different performance to ipv4, and when you connect via hostname it can often default to it
giving misleading results.
acf_: thanks for the config
I'll drop it in
mercutio: i have a few targets
i just gave one as an example
i do most of my testing on port 24 to bypass proxies
acf_: bypass proxies?
where is the traffic proxied?
mercutio: transparent proxies
anywhere
acf_: I actually wasn't aware that existed
on the public internet
mercutio: traffic is transparent proied on most isp's here
mnathani: how can a transparent proxy be detected?
is it stuff is forefront or squid?
mercutio: lots of them spoof the client ip these days
tcptraceroute is usually the easisest way
acf_: why would they want/need to have them?
mercutio: performance, bandwith savings
i'm in favour of proxying tbh
i wish things like wikipedia would cache better though
and it means if there's connections like wifi it tends to improve performance
or overloaded web sties
3g networks do it soemetimes too afaik
up_the_irons: mnathani: roger on the 9000 mtu
brycec: thanks for setting up zeit! i don't mind it being part of pool.ntp.org, as long as that dumb monlist thing is turned off (e.g. the NTP amp. attacks we saw a couple months ago)
acf_: up_the_irons: quick question
is it possible for arp metal customers to be on the backup network?
mnathani: you are already on gigabit LAN, so whats the point?
perhaps the jumbo frames, maybe
acf_: yeah
jumbo frames, and inter-customer connectivity
up_the_irons: acf_: i haven't done that before. all ports are access ports (not trunk), or in non-cisco speak, they are untagged ports. so i can't give ARP Metal customers the backup vlan tag. However, with some modifications, it's not impossible.
mnathani: up_the_irons: any idea why the 9000mtu wouldnt work on my kvr02 VPS?
brycec: up_the_irons: Yep, long-patched in ntp, And i've double-checked it.
mercutio: so port wuold have to be switched to trunk
mnathani: brycec: did you install something like fail2ban or apf/bfd for the ntp server to deal with brute force attempts
up_the_irons: mnathani: cuz i haven't made the same changes as i did on kvr29
brycec: awesome, tnx
brycec: the ssh port should be changed; cheap way to avoid a potential of problems
mercutio: acl ssh?
up_the_irons: to all who would like to beta test zeit (our new official NTP server, thanks to brycec), you can use: zeit.arpnetworks.com
brycec: mnathani: fail2ban
up_the_irons: sure, one sec
up_the_irons: everything looking clean with your tcpdumps?
up_the_irons: yeah, not much traffic :)
brycec: not yet anyways
My ARP VPS has 602 hosts in its monlist, but it's been public for a little while
up_the_irons: cool
mnathani: your kvr02 vps should be good to go with mtu 9k now also
