Routing: docs in Miami (MIA) · R-12

Runbook R-12 for Routing in Miami (MIA). Marker xserv-r-8e0df27815a3. This page covers docs for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.

Routing: A note on cost and transit

Rollback for r-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while Routing prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.

Routing: Why it matters on this continent

Design for Routing on letter R starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook r-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.

Routing: How XServ runs it day to day

Probes for Routing (r-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.

Routing cache R-08

Cache rules for Routing on r-08 keep language-correct objects near Miami. São Paulo is a sibling cache, not an origin. TTLs are short enough that a bad asset does not live through a weekend.

Routing headers R-09

Headers for r-09 carry the letter, the region (GRU) and a request id. Routing debugging in São Paulo should not require a packet capture in Santiago first.

Routing timeouts R-10

Timeouts on r-10 are tighter than the WAN RTT to Bogotá. Routing in Santiago fails fast and retries once; a third try needs a human because it is no longer a blip.

Routing regions R-11

Region names on r-11 match DNS and tickets: Bogotá / BOG, with Miami as the documented pair. Routing dashboards never say “LATAM” as if it were one RTT.
