You Asked and We Listened: New Features in the MANRS Observatory
Collaboration and shared responsibility are two pillars of the Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS) initiative, which we support so that there is a baseline of routing security for network operators around the world.
The same values apply to running the MANRS Observatory, an online tool we launched in August that lets users track the state of Internet routing security and network operators their “MANRS-readiness.” Aggregating data from trusted sources, it relies on the community with a shared goal to protect the core of the Internet.
Since we rolled out the tool, many of you have shared that you would like to see updates to make it more informative, intuitive, and easy to use. We take your comments seriously, and we are delighted to introduce some of the new features to you.
We’ve made several improvements to the user interface, including:
- Improved Search. The search network now displays the name of a network as you type an ASN. This feature is only available to MANRS participants; public access does not provide data for individual networks.
- Report Sharing. Individual network reports that provide detailed information about potential incidents and cases of non-conformance can now be easily shared with Continue reading

Cisco Champion for 2020
I made it to the list of Cisco Champions for 2020 which is now the third year in a row! The primary reason I could again be selected between the first 100 Cisco champs for 2020 in the early acceptance process is the stuff that I shared through this blog and because of the contact with people that got to me directly via my blog comments or e-mail. Again, 2019 was another year full of great projects and big challenges with new technologies. We finally break the barrier of NFV and Automation and got some great stuff done using automation

The Week in Internet News: Broadband Finally Comes to Rural Areas in U.S.
Broadband expansions: There were several news articles this week about broadband deployments, including places in the U.S. that still were lacking access. Masslive.com reports that Princeton, Massachusetts, with a population of more than 3,400, finally has gotten high-speed Internet access. More than 35 towns in the state still lack access. In Princeton, the local pizza place had been popular because it had WiFi service not available in other parts of the town.
New fiber build: Meanwhile, Facebook and non-profit MCNC are planning to deploy a fiber broadband network in five Western North Carolina counties, USNews.com reports. The fiber network will connect, among other sites, schools in four districts, the North Carolina School for the Deaf, five health care sites, four community colleges, and four public safety locations.
Alexa, give me broadband: Nasdaq.com has an article on Amazon’s plans to become an Internet service provider using a satellite system made up of 3,236 satellites. Amazon is asking the U.S. Federal Communications Commission for permission, but some cable companies are opposed, as are SpaceX and OneWeb, which both have their own plans for satellite broadband service.
No faces on Facebook: Even as Facebook plans broadband expansions, it Continue reading
Connecting Your Legacy WAN to Cloud is Harder than You Think
Unless you’re working for a cloud-only startup, you’ll always have to connect applications running in a public cloud with existing systems or databases running in a more traditional environment, or connect your users to public cloud workloads.
Public cloud providers love stable and robust solutions, and they took the same approach when implementing their legacy connectivity solutions: you could use routed Ethernet connections or IPsec VPN, and run BGP across them, turning the problem into a well-understood routing problem.
