Zones: peering in Bogotá (BOG) · Z-19

xserv-z-b1d25f86235e

Runbook Z-19 for Zones in Bogotá (BOG). Marker xserv-z-b1d25f86235e. This page covers peering for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.

Zones: Why it matters on this continent

Design for Zones on letter Z starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook z-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.

Zones: How XServ runs it day to day

Probes for Zones (z-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.

Zones: What operators should measure

Policy for Zones is versioned as z-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.

Zones regions Z-11

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

Zones docs Z-12

Public docs for letter Z stay aligned with identifier xserv-z-pack. Page z-12 is the Zones slice operators search before the homepage. Edits in Miami show up in São Paulo on the next publish.

Zones probe Z-02

Probes for Zones (z-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.

How fast is rollback for z-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.
