Network Neighborhood – Meet Denise “Fish” Fishburne
Denise "Fish" Fishburne chats with Ethan Banks. The conversation covers being arrested at 19 for DUI, being gay in the corporate world of the 80's and 90's, overcoming the challenge of being easily bored, teaching without ego, struggling with a distrust of others, the myth of the self-made person, and becoming an active member of the "Network Neighborhood."
For Denise, it's all about community. "All for one, and one for all."

Grey Failure Lessons Learne
Grey Failures in the Real World
Most “smaller scale” operators probably believe they are not impacted by grey failures, but this is probably not true. Given the law of large numbers, there must be some number of grey failures in some percentage of smaller networks simply because there are so many of them. What is interesting about grey failures is there is so little study in this area; since these errors can exist in a network for years without being discovered, they are difficult to track down and repair, and they are often “fixed” by someone randomly doing things in surrounding systems that end up performing an “unintentional repair” (for instance by resetting some software state through a reboot). It is interesting, then, to see a group of operators collating the grey failures they have seen across a number of larger scale networks.
Some interesting results of the compilation are covered in a table early in the document. One of these is that grey Continue reading

The Week in Internet News: Russia Moves Toward Test of Internet Disconnect
A separate Internet: The MIT Technology Review looks at the implications of Russia’s test to cut itself off from the rest of the Internet, scheduled for early April. The shutdown is a test of an Internet sovereignty law being considered in Russia, but it’s unclear how the country will actually accomplish the disconnect.
Clamping down: Egypt is cracking down on fake news with new rules that critics say are meant to curb dissent and restrict information the government believe is a threat to national security, The Hill reports. The country’s Supreme Media Regulatory Council can now block websites and some social media accounts with more than 5,000 followers for what it believes is “fake news” and can fine operators up to US$14,400 without getting a court order. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed two bills that critics say amount to censorship, Ars Technica says. One bill allows stiff fines for disseminating what the government determines is fake news, and the second allows fines and jail time for insulting government officials, including Putin.

Last Week on ipSpace.net (2019W12)
Spring started for real, so it was time for some early-spring cleaning and I managed to complete two webinars during last week:
- We covered the gory details of LISP and layer-2 data center interconnects on Tuesday;
- The third Ansible for Networking Engineers update session on Thursday covered network device configuration management (merge, fetch, compare, replace, rollback and save) and declarative configuration modules.
Both webinars are part of standard ipSpace.net subscription
