9/4     Hi, I'm looking for information on UCB's network.  Like what vendor
        do we use and what are the speeds of the various links.  Thanks.
        \_ traceroute.
        \_ We have an OC-48 (650 megabit, but I don't think it's all active
           yet) into Calren2 for our Internet2 link.  All our traffic goes
           to a Calren2 peering point, where our commodity net traffic
           gets sent over two OC-12's to Level3 and Qwest, which act as
           redundant connections.  (If both fail, it can fall back to
           our southern links out of UCLA).  Commodity net traffic is
           currently capped at 90 megabits/sec, soon to go up to 100 mb/sec.
           The dorms have a separate 40 megabit/sec cap, which is also due
           to rise.  SETI@Home has their own ISP link, as do a few other
           major research groups.  -tom
           \_OC-48=2.488Gb/s, OC-12=622Mbit/s, OC-3=155Mbit/s
                \_ Yes, but we don't get it all--it's shared with all the
                   northern UC campuses.  -tom
           \_ is this on a web page somewhere?  Also, do you know which
              vendor we're using at the different uplinks?  Cisco 12000 or
              Juniper M160s?
              \_ upgrades for i2 appear to be using T640s
                 \_ the T640s will be in the backbone.  What will be used
                    to connect Cal to the rest of Internet2?
                    to connect Cal to the rest of Internet2?  From a
                    traceroute, it looks like a Juniper, but it's most
                    likely not a T640.
           \_ Who else has their own ISP links?
           \_ tom, which dept oversees LSCR?
                \_ The "LS" stands for "Letters & Science"   -tom
                   \_ Yes, I know. So is your boss some non-techie at L&S?
                      There is no Berkeley Technology SuperBoss? ok, tnx.
                      \_ There has to be some PA5 somewhere in charge of this
                         stuff.
                        \_ I'm in charge of it.  I report to the Chair of
                           Deans, Ralph Hexter.  Jack McCredie has the title
                           of "CIO", but he's not in the reporting line of
                           anyone except IST, so it's not a particularly
                           meaningful title.  -tom
                           \_ Does Jack know he's not meaningful?  Have you
                              let him know this?
                                \_ I didn't say Jack was not meaningful, I
                                   said the title of CIO is not meaningful,
                                   and I have said that in various public
                                   forums.  -tom
                                   \_ tom, can I sniff your jockstrap?
                                   \_ Wow, so you're like, important?  Gosh.
                           \_ Ralph is still under L&S. What about other
                              colleges? Do they do all their network planning
                              separately or do they let L&S handle it? BTW,
                              thanks for all the info, it's nice to know this
                              sort of hierarchical stuff (why? i don't know)
