There are boards called Eric from Peppercon : http://www.peppercon.com/remoteboards.html I use a few of them and they are just as good as Lights Out cards from HP/Compaq Geraint Jones Systems Administrator French Maid Foods Limited www.french-maid.net DDI: +64 (0)4 570 7633 Tel: +64 (0)4 568 2687 Fax: +64 (0)4 568 2345 Mob: +64 (0)21 739 240 -----Original Message----- From: Nathan Ward [mailto:nznog(a)daork.net] Sent: Tuesday, 29 November 2005 11:58 p.m. To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: Re: [nznog] Remote server booting > Im wondering if anyone has used or is using a good solution to remote > boot (from complete power down) servers and equiptment? > > This i have done in the past by having the bios on the server set to > reboot after power fail and that takes care of the rest along with > good load UPS's and backup power.

IBM: "Remote Supervisor Adapter" HP: "Lights-Out" Dell: "DRAC" (Dell Remote Access Controller) Obviously, blade chassis, etc. have these built in.. There are also cards that go home made PCs, I believe. APC and others also make remote power switches, which are a power distribution board that let you switch ports on and off individually. This may solve part of your problem for cheaper than lightsout cards in all your servers. I believe the interface is some kind of network thing (ie. web, SNMP or telnet), or maybe RS-232. -- Nathan Ward _______________________________________________ NZNOG mailing list NZNOG(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog

2day Peering

The interim was in fact a fairly short period of time. A young sales chap arrived on day one and took over my office. I have had no participation at a management or operational level since that time. That was back in May. There was a contract in place for my services, but that has since been terminated. I will however be keeping an eye on the industry from my motor yacht :-) regards Peter Mott MV Toccata COASTLINE YACHTS LIMITED Tel: +64 9 488 9352 Fax: +64 9 486 7017 -/-

UberNetworks
by Tristram J. Cheer 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

To the NZNOG list UberNetworks is a new WISP operating in Whangarei, our wireless network has just entered its live trails with a small client base. Currently we are operating in the 202.49.132.0/27 range and wish to post details of our operation on the list, contact details are as follows P.O Box 5083 Phone: 09-438-5472 Fax: 09-438-5473 NOC E-mail: noc(a)ubernet.co.nz NOC 24 Hour phone: 021715823 Since we don't currently have an AS(We are in trails after all) so our details have not been sent to http://usenet.net.nz/noc/ at this point We have the ability to peer at APE and invite interested parties to contact peering(a)ubernet.co.nz if you are interested in peering. Above internet services we have some clients with hosted dedicated servers so I invite all companies peering at APE to get in touch Now that the formal stuff is out of the way I have a favor to ask from the list: Does anybody have a server sitting on a APE connection that they would be willing to allow us to download and upload a 10mbit file to for throughput testing on Monday the 28th? FTP access suits us best, would only need it for the day and the file is random data from /dev/null, if anyone does can they contact me via tristram(a)ubernet.co.nz or via my mobile listed below And just to make sure its on topic there is some beer for anyone able to grant us the above request Cheers ------------------------------------- Tristram Cheer UberNetworks T:(09)438-5472 F:(09)438-5473 M:(021)715-823

Notification of NZRR Database changes

Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that some object(s) in NZRR database which you either maintain or are listed as to-be-notified have been added, deleted or changed. These objects are used to configure the various NZIX route servers (http://nzix.net/) so you can expect the relevant servers to be reloaded in the near future. The reloading of the servers is staggered over a period of time so that if you are peering with both servers at an exchange, you can maintain at least one BGP session at all times and consequently a full set of routes. --- PREVIOUS OBJECT: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS24005 descr: Route set advertised to AS9560 by SafeNZ - AS24005 members: 202.137.240.0/21^21-29, 203.98.6.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: tonyw(a)tonyw.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20050909 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS24005 descr: advertised to AS9560 by SafeNZ Networks Limited - AS24005 members: 202.137.240.0/21^21-29, 202.170.160.0/21^21-29, 203.98.6.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: tonyw(a)tonyw.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20051125 source: NZRR
