Linode's virtual machine has not been followed for a long time, but recently I saw news that Linode's Tokyo vps have been connected to the cmi line. At present, the two-way mobile connection is cmi direct connection. The delay to Shanghai under the test just now is about 30ms~40ms, and the one-way network IO can reach 250Mbps. Unicom takes the NTT return trip, and ordinary broadband users should take the NTT return trip around the United States. It is understood that there has been no change in the NTT of the three networks in Osaka. If CN2 home broadband is used, the telecommunication traffic will return via CN2 in Hong Kong. Let's take a look at the actual measurement and sharing!!!

6. Routing
Telecom return:
Guangzhou/Shanghai direction: take tata around the United States and return home
Beijing direction: take ntt, directly connect to return home.
Telecom journey: Suzhou is connected to the backbone of China Telecom by NTT directly to Japan.
Unicom return:
Guangzhou direction: take tata to return home around the United States
Shanghai/Beijing direction: take ntt direct link home.
China Unicom's journey: China Unicom's backbone connects with NTT directly to Japan from Xuzhou.
Mobile return trip: It can be seen that the return trip is indeed a direct return trip to China through mobile cmi.
Mobile destination: Shenzhen direction, mobile cmi directly connects to Japan.
7. Performance test
Disk buffer performance test: general data above 20MB/s is qualified, more than 40MB/s is normal, and more than 80MB/s is excellent. The reading and writing here are excellent.

8. Finally
VPS has strong performance. After using linode, we can know what an excellent ECS is.
Routing: Mobile is indeed a two-way cmi direct connection back, and mobile users are ecstatic. China Telecom and China Unicom take the international line tata or ntt, both of which are two-way routes. The test shows that they take the tata route around the West and the United States, while the ntt route is direct.
