Workshop

We had a meeting with UNIMAS and UM on 11/15/2012. Background information can be found here and the minutes are also available. Kashif and Anjum plan to attend. We will meet in KL before going onto Kuching.

Johari says the invitations have been emailed to Anjum and Kashif. They have received them and sent a visa request to the embassy. The embassy does not open until Tuesday. Last time Anjum went for a visa it took 31 days. The advertised normal time is 15 days. It's getting tight.

For the KL visit, Johari has sent invitations to

  • Telecom R&D
  • MIMOS
  • Malaysian Communications and Multi Media Commission
  • MYREN
  • UM (to Siti)

Nara will also be present. The meeting place has to be determined. It may be MIMOS or UM. We expect the meeting to start at 9:00am and end ny 1:00pm.

We will fly to Kuching on Malaysian Airlines. Probably MH2526 leave KUL 18:25 (737-400) arrive KCH 20:10 (non stop).

Kashif will book his flights to and from ISL-KUL-KCH. UNIMAS will book Kashif's flights. Anjum will provide his flight details to Johari.

Kashif and Les will share darfts of their presentations in a week and a half so they can be coordinated.

UNIMAS monitoring host

UNIMAS is monitoring other Malaysian and Indonesian hosts outside the regular Beacons. There was a problem with not measuring the individual pings. This was caused by a change in the format of the ping response. This has been fixed in the master copy at SLAC (but not in the tarball) and UNIMAS.

There is a problem with the UNIMAS traceroute. It appears pinger.unimas.my is behind a NAT that is not passing the traceroute UDP probes. Johari has sent email to the network/syste, admins, but does not have a response, he will follow up with a reminder. ther traceroute/ping server is important for the TULIP trilateration project.

Johari can you add some extra Philippines EDU sites, the one you are monitoring (www.usep.edu.ph) seems anomalous. Some examples are below:

SEECS

From Arshad: Rector has agreed to support one person visit to SLAC. Kashif is the likely candidaet and it looks like a year. However, there is a problem with the bond. Arshad is studying how to resolve.

PingER at SLAC

I have fixed the web site providing script documentation. It is at http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/scripttable.html. The problem was a failing web service.

I have extended ping_data_plot.pl to enable showing more days. I also fixed connectivity.pl to showw all todays data so far.
