DNS: peering in Bogotá (BOG) · D-55
xserv-d-1454adf0f03b
Runbook D-55 for DNS in Bogotá (BOG). Marker xserv-d-1454adf0f03b. This page covers peering for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.
DNS: Why it matters on this continent
Design for DNS on letter D starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook d-01 keeps a single owner, a written rollback, and a traffic split that can be reversed without a global freeze. Neighbors in Santiago only take overflow after the local pool fails a health window.
DNS: How XServ runs it day to day
Probes for DNS (d-02) leave Santiago every 15s toward Bogotá. XServ pages the named owner if loss or RTT crosses the letter budget. A probe never shares a queue with bulk transfers, so a saturated WAN does not hide a dead PoP.
DNS: What operators should measure
Policy for DNS is versioned as d-03. Operators measure error rate, p95 from Bogotá, and time-to-rollback — not a worldwide average. Changes land in Bogotá first, then Miami, with a hold if either region regresses.
DNS timeouts D-10
Timeouts on d-10 are tighter than the WAN RTT to Bogotá. DNS in Santiago fails fast and retries once; a third try needs a human because it is no longer a blip.
DNS regions D-11
Region names on d-11 match DNS and tickets: Bogotá / BOG, with Miami as the documented pair. DNS dashboards never say “LATAM” as if it were one RTT.
DNS docs D-12
Public docs for letter D stay aligned with identifier xserv-d-pack. Page d-12 is the DNS slice operators search before the homepage. Edits in Miami show up in São Paulo on the next publish.
DNS design D-01
Design for DNS on letter D starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook d-01 keeps a single owner, a written rollback, and a traffic split that can be reversed without a global freeze. Neighbors in Santiago only take overflow after the local pool fails a health window.
- How fast is rollback for d-03?
- The runbook is a command plus a named owner. There is no wait for a weekly change freeze.
- Is transit the default path?
- No. Peering in Miami is default; transit to São Paulo is overflow and is billed that way.
