ISPA INXs hit 7Gbps and counting

It actually doesn't even seem that impressive ? ~700MB/sec at the peak ?

This does not include telkom's traffic, does it ?
 
Once you offer everyone 20mbps unshaped uncapped you will see over 10gig all the time!

but Telkom's network will crumble before that! Telkom have just upgraded there 8 port 100mbps switch to a 1gig 16 port switch, and they think it is new technology :sick:
 
Anyone know what happens at 03:00?

The graphs are for one day only, therefore the unevenness. If you superimpose, say, six months' traffic for Tuesdays, it will even out.

On that particular day, I would guess MyBB did a scheduled backup to the cloud.

That wouldn't even register as a blip. Especially not have an effect on both CINX and JINX.

Telkom doesn't really do much traffic through JINX/CINX though, that's the thing. They SHOULD, but they don't. They're always the complicated odd ones out spoiling the fun. Oh well
 
If you measure anything from a low enough base, it will show 100% increase after a while. Maybe we can see similar growth in the DINX figures, which currently show traffic very close to zero (5kb/sec!?) http://stats.dinx.net.za/showtotal.php

TENET also peer at the INXs, which could potentially be a lot of traffic (including Google cache, etc).

Actually, Telkom is not the only ISP not peering directly on the JINX or CINX switches, there are others too. It is however possible that they do private interconnects there like a few others. So its more than just Telkom not showing up there, it really depends on the 2 networks peering. You will see, peering policy from larger Tier1 networks in the US/UK are the same. If traffic volume is low enough, they will peer on a INX switch, however at certain bigger volumes they will move to private interconnects where the quality can be better managed. That is just how things go.

Sadly, that cluster has been down for some time now, however I believe another network is doing it now on the INXs, but also at NapAfrica in JHB and CPT and possibly DBN so there are even more traffic not showing up at the INXs.
