Mississippi Network Diagram and Configuration

Contents

TableOfContents

A nucab named "mississippi" serves DHCP and does NAT for our DSL line. All of the metrix boxes run ["STP"]. The whole network is bridged, and in the 10.11.104.0/22 network.

We have MississippiMonitoring with Cacti: http://buick.personaltelco.net/cacti/graph_view.php

MississippiLoadBalancing: The Ballroom DSL line and the NodeFreshPot line are available, but the FreshPot wireless link has not be very stable lately. We have seen and had a report of pages only half-loading, which is plausibly related to the load-balancing. We've removed the load balancing for the time being to assess its impact on the problem.

RussellSenior currently has both metrix-russell and metrix-troy and the parts from metrix-ballroom-nw which was removed following the vandalism incident. Needs a new Bud Industries PN-1339 enclosure ($25 from Mouser, Digi-Key, etc) and a new set of standoff pegs.

See MississippiMetrixConfiguration for a method of preparing and updating the software on the metrixes.
