incomplete local sync
by Greg Dendy 24 Mar '17

24 Mar '17

Hola PDB-Tech I’ve noticed that my peeringdb sql syncs over the last week or so are considerably smaller than normal, by about 75%. The sync process appears to complete successfully, but network, facility, and IX records appear to be missing. Anyone else seeing this behavior? Are there any known issues with the sync function that could cause this behavior? Thanks, Greg

Using the API for integration into LibreNMS
by Neil Lathwood 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

Hi Folks, We've been working on adding some simple support into LibreNMS so users can list the exchanges that they are connected to and then in turn the peers on those exchanges and if they have sessions configured already. To do this we're making use of the two following API calls: https://peeringdb.com/api/net?depth=2&asn=[asn] https://peeringdb.com/api/ixlan/[ix_id]?depth=2 (We require ASN for each peer to match with the data we have). Firstly I hope that these are the best two end points to use. Secondly I hope this is an appropriate use of the API. It's a user configurable option and is off by default, when turned on it will only call for data once a day and cache this info. The call for data would already be randomly delayed by other functions called before it but we've added a random delay of between 60 and 300 seconds to stagger things further. The code is within this pull request (https://github.com/librenms/librenms/pull/6178) which we've put a call out for testing. If you have any feedback or comments then please let us know. Kind Regards, Neil LibreNMS
