IPv6 and Mimosa/AirSpan
After many hours of hair pulling frustration, I figured out why I couldn’t keep my IPv6 working to my house. Mimosa (owned by AirSpan who also has the iBridge network equipment which I presume is running the same software) does not support Multicast packets on it’s PTMP hardware as of firmware version 2.5.2 (the A5/A5c is where it would need to be implemented, but there may be stuff that would need updating on the C5# line)

Going from Static Routing to Dynamic routing from Edge to Towers. (Part 1)
Setting up BGP on the edge. So, this is going to be my thoughts, preparations and experiences going through a network that was statically routed from customer to upstream. At the end we now have BGP running on our two core routers, isolated layer 2 links between routers and eBGP managing routes from/to my core and towers. I did most of this work during normal operating hours as well, not recommended, but I did so without significant interruptions to my customers and I was able to keep a sane sleep schedule.
