Description

Folks,

Just something I noticed when looking at routing, I see the two cloudlb's in codfw are connected at different speeds:

cmooney@cloudsw1-b1-codfw> show interfaces descriptions | match "ge-0/0/14|xe-0/0/31" 
ge-0/0/14       up    up   cloudlb2001-dev
xe-0/0/31       up    up   cloudlb2002-dev

2001 is only at 1G whereas cloudlb2002 is at 10G. These guys both announce some common (anycast) BGP routes, so traffic is being load-shared between them. That would normally mean to me they have equal bandwidth available.

As it's codfw perhaps we're ok even with the 1G and it's not a big deal, but otherwise we should investigate what's needed to move cloudlb2001-dev to 10G. From a quick glance it has no 10G ports, so that probably means getting a new NIC installed in it.
