xserv-e-10ec6d11e381
Runbook E-60 for Edge in Miami (MIA). Marker xserv-e-10ec6d11e381. This page covers docs for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.
Edge: A note on cost and transit
Rollback for e-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while Edge prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.
Edge: Why it matters on this continent
Design for Edge on letter E starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook e-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.
Edge: How XServ runs it day to day
Probes for Edge (e-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.

Edge policy E-03
Policy for Edge is versioned as e-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.
Edge capacity E-04
Capacity notes for e-04 assume rainy-season power in Miami and festival peaks toward São Paulo. The failure we actually see is a single uplink, not a cartoon partition of the whole continent. Spare ports and a second provider sit on the same runbook.
- Is transit the default path?
- No. Peering in Miami is default; transit to São Paulo is overflow and is billed that way.
- Does Edge on letter E share fate with other letters?
- The control plane is shared. Data-plane queues for Edge stay isolated, so incident e-01 cannot drain neighbor letters.
