IPv6 in NZ?
by Juha Saarinen 16 Apr '03

16 Apr '03

Noticed on: http://snurl.com/1638 that Xtra "isn't considering moving to" IPv6 and also claims that "none of the ISPs are", presumably meaning the NZ ones. I know this is not correct, and that Joe Abley and Clear were at it back in '98 already, with the Uni of Canterbury. Where are things at with IPv6 in NZ now though? -- Juha Saarinen

Please let us not head down the path of handing out RFC1918 space to end users as if this is a real connection. That way leads to Much Pain with Less Than Friendly Protocols. Which seems to be an awful lot beyond CS weenies :) The day an ISP hands me an address which is RFC1918 is the day I switch away. -- David Zanetti <david.zanetti(a)nzpost.co.nz> Desk: +64-4-496-4005 Mobile: +64-25-832-572 "Hope.. is a dangerous thing" This email with any attachments is confidential and may be subject to legal privilege.

In that case RFC1918 space can be used... else beware the whining gamer who can't play CounterStrike with a v6 address.

RE: [nznog] tranzpeer leaking at APE

We have also had one of our main providers leaking the global routing table into our routers. Its time to heed Joes advice and ensure your max prefixes are set (or at least your filtering is correctly configured) Cheers Rob Purdy -----Original Message----- From: Joe Abley [mailto:jabley(a)automagic.org] Sent: Monday, 14 April 2003 5:14 p.m. To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: [nznog] tranzpeer leaking at APE 192.203.154.46 in AS 9790 seems to be leaking a global table to peers across the APE at the moment; if you aren't filtering (or don't have maximum-prefix limits set) and you were wondering where all your traffic is going, it might be going that way. _______________________________________________ Nznog mailing list Nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog

192.203.154.46 in AS 9790 seems to be leaking a global table to peers across the APE at the moment; if you aren't filtering (or don't have maximum-prefix limits set) and you were wondering where all your traffic is going, it might be going that way.
