I think it's a great idea.

Would be a good paper/lightning talk from someone at the next NZNOG conference.

The key issue is a standard API that network operators could present to an aggregator location like��http://www.nznog.org/noc-list
and for it to include info that operators need to know and care about.

If some sort of API spec was published then at least folks would know what to aim for. Jeez, even a set of twitter handles to aggregate would be a start. But then we'd rely on Timmeh not breaking shit.

Anyone up for talking about that sort of stuff in February?

Just a thought��� What do you folks think about adding ���Network Status��� page links to the existing NOC list? http://www.nznog.org/noc-list

��

Could provide a quick and easy zero-touch way of getting the word out about network faults without tying up hard-working NOC people with serial phone calls / emails?

��

Disclaimer: my company doesn���t actually *have* a Network Status page yet (working on it), but many on the NOC list do���

��

Thoughts?

��

PS Thanks for the idea Jesse Archer. J

Indeed shutting down all (flapping) circuits from the affected provider at that location allowed traffic to traverse alternate paths and carriers and normal operation to resume.

��

Unfortunately not all downstream customers choose to buy 100% diverse services due to cost constraints, and as such are vulnerable to network interruptions affecting a particular POP or hand over point, this is an accepted risk they take, but it doesn't make it any less impacting when it breaks. (I believe you actually built some of the affected non-diverse circuits back in the day bro).

��

Sometimes when your shit is on fire, and you don't have enough information about whats happening, in a communications vacuum it can help to reach out to the community as someone else may know more than you, and sometimes when you do that you don't always write the most comprehensive or eloquent emails as your a little pre-occupied with the issues at hand.

��

Thankfully the issues are mostly resolved or routed around, although a RCA is going to take some time. ��

Sounds like your network is lacking in carrier diversity if they can cause you that much bother bro��

Your right Tim, its not the NOC.

At the time the NOC was being uncommunicative, and as a customer I was left in the dark about a major P1 fault affecting me.

��

Due to communication difficulties with the NOC and in exasperation as a customer I decided to post here to see if anyone else was affected, or had any further information they could provide on the issue, (i.e. is anyone else affected, I'm trying to find out what the fuck is actually going on), had the NOC been more communicative at the time I would not have resorted to posting here.

��

Subsequently I escalated this to my account manager and then the CTO, and the flow of communication from NOC to customer has resumed in a satisfactory manner.

��

Thanks for your concern.
