Re: [conduit] Large CONDUIT latencies to UW-Madison idd.aos.wisc.edu starting the last day or two.



If I were the conspiracy theory type, I might think to blame the balkanization of all paths to the internet from NOAA sites via the Trusted Internet Connection stuff. But I'm just hypothesizing. Or, they could be running distro on overloaded VMs.

There seems to be a consistency is potential packet loss from no matter which route is taken into ncep… so whoever you are communicating with, you might have them investigate 140.90.111.36… reference the previous graphic shown and this new one here:

if you are unfamiliar with amazon ec2 routing, the first.. twenty something or so hops are just internal to amazon, and they don’t jump outside until you hit the internet2 hops, which then jump to gigapop, and from there to noaa internal.. so since this amazon box is in ashburn, physically it’s close, and has limited interruptions until that point..

 

the same hop causes more severe problems from my colo boxes, which are hurricane electric direct, which means that in those cases jumping from hurricane electric to 140.90.111.36 has “severe” problems (including packet loss) while jumping from amazon to I2 to gigapop to 140.90.111.36 also encounters issues, but not as severe..

 

hopefully this may help J  Happy Friday J

Pete,

 

We've been struggling with latencies for months to the point where I've been feeding gfs 0p25 from NCEP and the rest from Unidata... that is, up untl Feb 10th.  The afternoon of the 10th, our latencies to NCEP dropped to what I consider "normal", an average maximum latency of about 30 seconds.  Our networking folks and NCEP have been trying to identify what this problem was, but as far as I know, no problem has been identified or action taken.  So, it appears it's all buried in the mysteries of the internet.  I've switched data collection back to NCEP at this point, but I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to see if it reverts back to the old behavior...

All,

 

Not sure if this is on my end or somewhere upstream, but the last several runs my CONDUIT latencies have been getting huge to the point where we are losing data.

 

I did stop my ldm the other day to add in an alternate feed for Gilbert at allisonhous.com, not sure if that pushed me over a bandwidth limit, or by reconnecting we got hooked up to a different remote ldm, or taking a different path, that shot the latencies up.

 

Seems to be really only CONDUIT, none of our other feeds show this kind of latency.

 

Still looking into things locally, but wanted make people aware. I just rebooted idd.aos.wisc.edu, will see if that helps at all.

 

Here's an ldmping and traceroute from idd.aos.wisc.edu to conduit.ncep.noaa.gov.
