NZNOG-People, I have just finished migrating all of the mailing lists held at The University of Waikato from one server to another. I don't have any reason to believe that anything's gone wrong, but please bear with me for today if it turns out that something has. - Donald Neal -- Donald Neal | Q: How many Aucklanders does it take to change Systems Programmer/Analyst | a light bulb?

Re: [nznog] Comcom/Samknows broadband testing from a different perspective
by Brian Cole 01 Oct '18

01 Oct '18

Hi all, Longtime listener; first time caller. I signed up to SamKnows (partly out of curiosity and partly so I can have hard data about my connection that I pay for) at home. Over the last week my connection has gone from slightly adequate with the occasional drop out to a slow connection with regular drop outs. Netflix and YouTube are stuttering, video games drop connection, and websites hang at random times. I can't help but think that the email shared by Dylan sheds some light on why that maybe. This programme won't be terribly successful if everyone gets sick of having a terrible connection during peak hours and shuts the white box down. Pretty frustrating.

Comcom/Samknows broadband testing from a different perspective
by Dylan Hall 26 Sep '18

26 Sep '18

Hi all, I'm wearing my REANNZ hat today. I thought I'd share what we're seeing hosting the M-Lab [1] nodes in NZ that the new Comcom/Samknows [2] broadband testing are using for some of their tests. For a start, it looks like the testing has been ramping up over the last week (see attached graph), in particular during the evening (6pm-midnight). I had assumed the testing would be evenly spread out throughout the day, but it looks like they're concentrating the testing during the busy evening period. If anyone is interested in following how that traffic grows we have publicly available graphs for the two M-Lab nodes: AKL: https://weathermap.reannz.co.nz/node.php?src=and01&int=xe_0_0_9 WLG: https://weathermap.reannz.co.nz/node.php?src=and02&int=xe_0_2_7 If you want to try out the M-Lab nodes themselves, type "speedtest" into a Google search box and there is a "Run Speed Test" option that uses M-Lab (at least in my copy of Chrome, your mileage may vary). The nodes each consist of 4 x Dell servers front ended by a Juniper QFX switch. They're connected at 10Gbps. The nodes are fully run by M-Lab, we're just providing some address space and capacity. If anyone is concerned about their connectivity to REANNZ, we're on all the major NZ exchanges (APE, WIX, CHIX, AKL-IX) where we peer with the route servers. I note Comcom have posted a FAQ [3] on their website with some more details. The nodes are also IPv6 connected with addresses allocated from 2404:138::/32. It's worth noting we've been hosting M-Lab nodes for around 5 years now, but no one from Comcom or Samknows has spoken to us about the testing so it's all come as a bit of a surprise to us. If you have any interesting information to share, we'd like to know more :) [1] https://www.measurementlab.net [2] https://comcom.govt.nz/regulated-industries/telecommunications/monitoring-t… [3] https://comcom.govt.nz/__data/assets/pdf_file/0032/98276/SamKnows-technical… Thanks, Dylan

Juniper Lab
by Jesse Archer 16 Sep '18

16 Sep '18

Hi All, I've got some config that I'd like to lab but my own kit is tied up in a transition. Wondering if anyone has a spare MX5-MX80 they would be willing to fire up to allow me to perform some tests. Unfortunately, vMX doesn't quite work in this case. *Jesse Archer* *General Manager*Full Flavour *p. *07 577 0099 *ddi*. 07 281 1391 *s*.
