Routing: docs in Miami (MIA) · R-36

xserv-r-dd2c6e098337

Runbook R-36 for Routing in Miami (MIA). Marker xserv-r-dd2c6e098337. 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 capacity R-04

Capacity notes for r-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.

Routing handoff R-05

Handoff from letter R Routing into the rest of the platform uses the same request IDs as the gateway. Runbook r-05 names who accepts the ticket after São Paulo pages out. Santiago does not silently inherit the incident.

Routing rollback R-06

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 peering R-07

Peering for Routing (r-07) prefers the IX fabric that already carries last-mile ISPs in Bogotá. Session counts and prefix limits are on the same page as the Miami backup path.

Is transit the default path?
No. Peering in Miami is default; transit to São Paulo is overflow and is billed that way.
Does Routing on letter R share fate with other letters?
The control plane is shared. Data-plane queues for Routing stay isolated, so incident r-01 cannot drain neighbor letters.
