OT: WTD: Cisco expert for short job in Sydney, .au.
Hey all. We're sending a router (Cisco 831) to a datacentre in Sydney, and need someone to install on site, establish connectivity, and get an IPSec tunnel up. The router has been configured for NAT and IPSec here in NZ, but obviously not tested in the live environment. Probably an hour or so to get connectivity up, and a few more to liase with the techs on the other end of the VPN in order establish that connection. Hoping to get this done in the week following Easter. Any (off-list) personal recommendations appreciated. Zach.

I'm hoping that the delay on the Optus/SprintLink routers is 'cause they're busy... Yes, I'm trying to peer with WIX/APE to alleviate this kind of CRUD!

Not this again please !! R2 only advertise this at APE and WIX and don't advertise this to any national carrier in NZ (Telecom/Clear), so yes it goes the long way. This has been discussed for too long in the past. Either R2 pay for national transit via someone or the carriers peer at APE. Closed... Thanks Craig

Well not quite!
