how to persuade ISP that they follow ripe-690?
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 17:35:41
I like more content about routing, i.e. the BGP (Bridging Gap Protocol) many people don't know how IP packet forwarding works.

Wolfgang Tremmel - 23-11-2021 17:39:07
thats what I was referring to - still new people entering the industry who do not know what we take for granted
Blake Willis - 23-11-2021 17:39:32
absolutely Kurt, & to gauge translation effort based on 1) demand & 2) english fluency of a given market
Peter Koch - 23-11-2021 17:40:07
the problem was more the "necessity" for making 2 /25 assignments out of a /24 allocation ... (digression, I know)
Dirk Meyer - 23-11-2021 17:40:07
I like to suggest a course with BGP communites for nor leaf AS.
Gerardo Viviers - 23-11-2021 17:40:55
Peter, that is more a limitation imposed by the RIPE Database business rules.
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 17:40:55
maybe also a suggestion to split technical content from more political content? I mean both are important, but different people are mostly responsible for it
Gerardo Viviers - 23-11-2021 17:42:45
Kurt, which topics would you put under "political"?
Blake Willis - 23-11-2021 17:43:31
this is perhaps out of scope for the RIPE NCC training group, but... "if you're a device/software maker, how do you actually design systems that are compliant with various BCOPs e.g. IoT, IPv6, etc"
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 17:43:54
political: RIPE vs RIPE NCC, multistakeholder, IGF, etc.
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 17:43:58
PDP
Wolfgang Tremmel - 23-11-2021 17:44:18

IIRC labs are Cisco-only once it comes to configuration examples…chances for adding additional implementations there, too?

Ignas Bagdonas - 23-11-2021 17:45:59
One of the painful aspects of segregation of focus is on the protocol mechanics vs implementation of that particular instance of a protocol. Looking at the incoming engineers mostly all the time I do see an ability to replay memorized commands instead of understanding how the protocol fits into the broader context.
Blake Willis - 23-11-2021 17:46:07

I decided for FRR because it looked a lot like Cisco
Leo Vegoda - 23-11-2021 17:48:13
One of the good things in the old "LIR" training course was the introduction to the wide range of different organisations involved in the delivery of Internet services. It would be great to have a simple course that introduces people new to the industry to ICANN, CENTR, PeeringDB, Euro-IX etc... and explains a little history, what they do, how they work and so on

And you have to think about the post-covid world as well.... on-site vs. on-line
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 17:49:32
I sometimes miss also a forum for new ISPs how to exchange ideas (i.e. a do's and dont's) like it's in the **NOG roups sometimes. Would an exchange with the local operations groups make sense?
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 17:49:55

Otherwise, you can ask questions using the microphone icon. Thank you!
Christoph Berkemeier - 23-11-2021 17:51:43
I completly agree with Joey
Denesh Bhabuta - 23-11-2021 17:52:09
@Ulka I am personally for in-person, but that is because I am of the age group who are used to these things being in-person. However, for many younger generations it can be different and they may prefer online-only. The thing with in-person is the networking with others and in-person interactivity as we learn, which can be difficult to replicate under current technology when online-only.
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 17:52:56
@Ulka I am sure in person is preferred but not for all possible due to constraints.
Fergal Cunningham - 23-11-2021 17:52:57
We are investigating forums at the RIPE NCC so good to see a practical use case that might apply.
Christian Bretterhofer - 23-11-2021 17:53:02
travel is harder to achieve
Christian Bretterhofer - 23-11-2021 17:53:27

Marc Wullings - 23-11-2021 17:53:59
Thanks Denis!
Gordon Gidofalvy - 23-11-2021 17:54:33
In-person training, however, does make it much easier to separate work time from training time.
Gerardo Viviers - 23-11-2021 17:54:33
The face to face experience is usually the most satisfying, both for participants and trainers!
Gerardo Viviers - 23-11-2021 17:54:47
But it's true that we can't be everywhere all the time. :(
Massimiliano Stucchi - 23-11-2021 17:55:15
If you take my case, I am not able to take any of those exams, because I don't have the environment to do so. I can't follow their indications
Blake Willis - 23-11-2021 17:56:27
it ceratinly merits more research :-)
Christoph Berkemeier - 23-11-2021 17:56:58

Gerardo Viviers - 23-11-2021 18:01:08
But we can try to teach critical thinking!
Ignas Bagdonas - 23-11-2021 18:01:18
It is somewhat worse - they memorize how to configure an instance of say L3VPN, but do not understand how it works and what role RT does there.
Ignas Bagdonas - 23-11-2021 18:01:39
Therefore anything diverging from examples in the context of troubleshooting is a full stop.
Blake Willis - 23-11-2021 18:02:03
+1 Ignas. one of my standard job interview questions is "what's the difference between a route distinguisher & a route target"
Ignas Bagdonas - 23-11-2021 18:02:21
Wait, are they different?
Kurt Kayser - 23-11-2021 18:02:31
Gerardo: this is why I believe political implications for Internet related matter is as important as technical content.
Blake Willis - 23-11-2021 18:02:47
but they look the same!
Gerardo Viviers - 23-11-2021 18:02:55
I agree wholly with you, Kurt
Luis Balbinot - 23-11-2021 18:03:03
Exactly Ignas. It's like learning to drive. Anyone can learn to drive a car, but now put that person in the middle of a crazy traffic jam to see what happens. BGP is easy, policy is hard.

furthering on Wolfgang's remarks: learning materials are, well, ancient (as maybe the curricula) and what he said about classful IP(v4), but that needs a wider industry effort; v6 for "apprentice" level education would be extremely useful

It is less about the policy itself from the perspective of how do you turn a knob on a particular box, but on the (global) routing control by understanding what the knobs can and cannot do and what are the implications of turning or not turning them.
Ignas Bagdonas - 23-11-2021 18:29:28
