Topic:

"Wacking the Moles"

aka "is Citylink a crap network? Discuss..." aka "How we built a 5 nines network from stuff we bought from Dick Smith"

Simon Blake and Jonathan Martin of Citylink will speak about the past, present and future of Citylink. Discussion points could/will include hardware (physical construction, power issues), topology, administration, peering/APE/WIX, best practices for operators on Citylink, building routers from Linux PC's, and anything else that people ask us. Will probably contain some horror stories, there may be a little finger pointing and telco mocking, but we'll try to keep it seemly.

Bio:

Simon has been involved with Citylink more or less since it's inception in 1996, as network administrator and lead mole wacker. Jonny has been with Citylink for about a year doing network admin, hardware integration, and VoIP development. Prior to joining Citylink he was with the broadband development group at Telecom NZ.
