Data Center Says $400/month For L6-30P Twistlock Outlet, Reasonable
Jun 13, 2008We are upgrading the power in our data center and moving to an APC 5000VA UPS. It uses an L6-30P 220v plug.
I have asked for a quote from our data center and they have said it will be $0 install but $400/month.
Is that reasonable?
The only reason I ask is because they quoted me an L5-30P which is 30amps over 120v for only $225/month.
Upgrades
Jun 21, 2007ive got a one of my personal sites - (a fairly mysql heavy chat community that works on mobile phones aswell) and its running on a cheap dedicated server
the specs of the server at the moment are -
celeron 2.0GHz
512mb ram
120gb ide disk
1500gb bandwidth
linux centos 4 no control panel
now i never come close to using my bandwidth so thats fine.
but ive noticed when i had around 30 members online last night the server load spiked at about 3.5 so im wondering if anyone can suggest what would be the best thing to upgrade to reduce load.
im currently running apache serving the dynamic files and lighttpd hosting images on a different port. using php 4.4.7 with eaccellerator. mod_gzip is enabled in apache due to a need to reduce the size of pages as much as possible.
the ram and disk usage is as below

BurstNET Upgrades
Sep 17, 2008Just got the email:
BURSTNET Network Maintenance Advisory - Saturday, September 20th, 2008 - 2AM-4AM EST WINDOW
BurstNET™ Network Engineering will be performing maintenance in our Scranton facility during the hours of 2AM and 4AM EST on Saturday, September 20th, 2008. At this time, BurstNET™ Network Engineering will be performing a significant upgrade/replacement of our existing network infrastructure. This upgrade will involve removing/replacing our older/out-dated core Cisco™ GSR & Extreme Summit™ routing/switching equipment, with newer state-of-the-art Cisco™ 6500-series routing/switching equipment, and implementing a new network design---allowing for easier upgrade, higher fault-tolerance, additional capacity, and extra redundancy.
This maintenance will be service affecting, however, we expect the overall network downtime to be 30 minutes or less, during the 2-hour maintenance window, with the majority of that occurring at the start of the work...as equipment and cabling is changed. There will also be momentary periods of higher than normal latency while circuits are re-routed, BGP updated/reloaded, and cabling switched, throughout the 2-hour maintenance window. Proper planning, configuration, and testing has been completed in advance of this maintenance period, in order to minimize as much as possible the overall time that will be service affecting.
This maintenance is necessary in order for further growth of the BurstNET™ network, as well as to implement additional redundancy into the network. This should also help resolve any latency and packet loss issues our clientele may have been experiencing in recent weeks. BurstNET™ has recently hired new Network Engineering staff, and this is the first step in several upgrades/modifications they will be making to the BurstNET™ network over the next 60-90 days, to expand reliability, increase capacity, install further redundancy, and increase performance network-wide.
We thank you for your patience and understanding with this necessary maintenance, as well as for your continued business!
Sounds like a pretty major upgrade (they've been upgrading a lot recently). Here's to more uptime and redundancy at BurstNET!
Lastly, a quick point to the army of Burst-haters out there: go check outages, BurstNET has had two great months for us (99.9%+ uptime). Stop hating .
Cisco Re-certification/IOS Upgrades

Jul 1, 2008it looks like FDC is taking more pain than usual in terms of network upgrade, i see the network seems unstable till 5am and even now the sessions are getting lost, once in a while like once a hr, anyway this is not the reason i am writing this, but when did comcast become transit provider, i did a trace to UK for example and i see trace going through comcast and then hopping onto tiscali/level3, it looks to me like, comcast could be trying to even out (1:1) it;s carriers so that they get all inbound for free sort of and it;s upstream selling as a transit make money there. sort of, just a surprise to me at this point

VPS Provider Which Handles Upgrades Well
Sep 30, 2008I've decided to move from my current provider (which I have praised many times on this forum before) because I'm just not getting the service I expect.
I'm specifically interested in a provider who is able to upgrade a VPS quickly, efficiently and on time, with no excuses and without "forgetting" things.
If you have experienced more than one upgrade with a provider which has been handled exceptionally well, please point me in the right direction.

Rate Limiting On The Switch
Jan 11, 2008Which brand / model would you recommend for those:
1 - bw limiting on specific port (like 3mbits/sec on port4)
2 - creating vlans by ports (like vlan1 = port1 + port2)
3 - creating vlans by ips (like vlan1 =x.x.x.1 to 8, vlan2 = x.x.x.9 to 27)
4 - managing the switch from GUI
Market Rate For IP Addresses
Nov 14, 2007I've been collecting quotes from various colo providers for 1 full cabinet in Virginia. I've been surprised at how much power costs these days, but I also understand power is in short supply.
One quote I got raised a question though. For a Class C (non-portable) IP address space, they want $256/month (so I guess that's $1 per IP). Their other pricing seems in line with the other quotes I have received, but no other place wants to charge for IP addresses like that. Is $256/month for a Class C considered normal market rate?
Does that reflect their costs? Are they paying a price per month upstream for IPs?
Slow Upload Rate
Oct 12, 2008I am hosted with ASmallOrange. I have always had fast uploads but recently that have been rather slow. 1-4kbs but now up to 20kbs. I think it depends on the file type. I am not sure.
This is starting to stress me out because it takes hours to upload 8 or 9 mbs of stuff.
What is a normal upload rate? How do I know if this is a problem with my host or with my connection?
I also upgraded to the lastest version of Cyberduck but I do not have OSX. I still have OS9. Could that be a problem?
When I try uploading a file of stuff it says 2 or 3kbs but when I upload an 11mb file it says 20kbs. It is so strange. I can't find a really good way to tract it. I am just watching the upload as it flickers and shows me a rate but it doesn't always. Deleting files is fast. And downloading normal files from the internet is about 144kbs.

Plesk 11.x / Linux :: Postfix Rate Limiting
Oct 13, 2014There are several big domains that frequently defer accepting mail from us causing long delays or rejections. Google, AOL, and Yahoo are examples.

In the below URL, please see the section titled "Different policies for different domains"...URL....

Not only do we need rate limiting, but we also need notification of potential abuses.
