	Closed.971124.2345  finally BGP routing re-established; currently
	             	    ~4Mb/s coming in on that link;  link will be
			    monitored for fine-tuning tomorrow;  first set of
			    fine-tuning actions scheduled for 971126.1800

	Update.971121.2000  HW problems solved since Monday (971117):
	                    HSSI + converter installed (Vienna-RBS/Hssi4/1/0);
			    despite daily complaints, Digex has still not 
			    re-enabled BGP routing yet :-(

	Update.971114.1630  Digex/Orion sat-link removed from Vienna-EBS2;
			    Ticket closed in Ebone context;
			    due to HW problems we haven't yet managed to
			    get it running smoothly on the ACOnet-Router;

	Update.971112.1630  move of sat-link rescheduled to 13.11.97 15:00

Problem Description:

    ACOnet has now contractually taken over 5Mb of the satellite-link 
    Digex/Orion\Ebone for additional US bandwidth. The physical move of the
    link (disconnect from Vienna-EBS2.Ebone.NET/Hssi0/0, connect to
    Vienna-RBS.ACO.net/Ser6/7) will happen this afternoon.

Update.971121.2000  HSSI installed (Vienna-RBS/Hssi4/1/0) on Friday, 14.11.97,  
                    corresponding converter installed on Monday, 17.11.97
    
    Some adjustments to routing will be necessary in the next couple of
    weeks to get the best load-sharing for ACOnet's US traffic distributed
    onto the sat-link and Ebone.

Affected: US traffic for ACOnet might be disturbed only if route-flap
    	  dampening gets active on the US side.
	  
    	  Very short interruption for ACOnet customers IIASA and ARCS/OeFZS,
	  as they have to be moved to different router-ports on Vienna-RBS.
	  
    	  No other Ebone customers should be affected, as alternative US
	  bandwidth for Vienna-EBSes is already in place via
	  MUC/FRA/Pensauken.

Actions:  pull cable, config routers

Time to fix:	scheduled 2 hours for physical changes
    		scheduled 2 hours for basic routing tests
		
		actually it took us 3.5 days to get the physics running 
		properly (primarily home made problems) and another week to 
		get routing re-established (out of Digex's kitchen)
		
    		routing fine-tuning out of the scope of this ticket
