See below for some tweaks that have been made to our ResNet connection.

Also looks like we'll have blistering Internet for O'Day (so [BOB], you
can stop raging now :P)

Hey Matt,

I should really all be done today, EOB Friday is just a precaution in case
something goes terribly wrong!

One another note, the UCC currently has a deal for 128K minimum with a
bust to 1M on the RESNet pipe.


I have changed this slightly;
I have broken your 2 sets of subnets into their own classes instead of
sharing one 128K partition, as follows:

1) 10.203.13.0 /24 runs through "UCC_Private" with 128K minimum and burst
to 1M (This one includes any static NAT's you have)
2) 203.24.97.248 /29 runs through partition "UCC_Public" with 128K minimum
and burst to 1M (This one is the raw public space you have on VLAN 13)

I have done this to keep the rulesets clean (long story with the shapers)
but its a win for you guys anyway.

Cheers,
Richard

Hi Richard,

If the outages are going to persist into Friday, could you drop us a quick
email just so we can plan ahead - we've got O'Day on Friday when we'll have
a number of new members coming through the club and the last thing we want
is a broken internet connection - if we know early enough we can change the
900 lines of iptables (ummm, spaghetti) to funnel everything (instead of
just on-net stuff) over the AARNET link instead.

Thanks mate :-)

Hi All,

The new equipment for RESNet has now arrived and implementation has begun.

The majority of the work will be conducted during Thursday 18th (tomorrow)
which will see intermittent outages to the RESNet link.

It is still expected that work will be completed by End of Business on
Friday the 19th.

Please contact me directly if you have any concerns/questions.

Regards,
Richard
