by Webmaster 20 Jan '06

20 Jan '06

I am currently working on a paper about peering in New Zealand. If you are involved with peering policy in your organisation, could you please send me offlist a copy of your company's policy (or a link to it). Many thanks, Richard >>> "Craig Humphrey" <Craig.Humphrey.Work(a)paradise.net.nz> 01/20/06 2:02 PM >>> _______________________________________________ NZNOG mailing list NZNOG(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog

Notification of NZRR Database changes
by NZRR Database Notifications 19 Jan '06

19 Jan '06

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:AS17435 descr: advertised to AS9560 by WorldxChange Communications LTD - AS17435 members: 58.28.0.0/16^16-29, 202.182.192.0/19^19-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: noc(a)wxnz.net mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20051202 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS17435 descr: advertised to AS9560 by WorldxChange Communications LTD - AS17435 members: 58.28.0.0/16^16-29, 202.49.240.0/22^22-29, 202.14.217.0/24^24-29, 202.49.59.0/24^24-29, 202.50.176.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: lsmith(a)wxc.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060120 source: NZRR

by Andy Linton 18 Jan '06

18 Jan '06

I know may of you will be at NZNOG in March but if you need more conference time then the annual Asia Pacific Regional Internet Conference on Operational Technologies (APRICOT) event is happening in Perth, Western Australia from 22nd February to 3rd March 2006. Registrations for the event are open and early bird is closing on the 14th Jan (tomorrow!). This is the first time that APRICOT will be held in Australia and I've been told they'd really love to see lots of us coming over for it! APRICOT consists of workshops, tutorials, conference, as well as the 6 monthly APNIC meeting. The APRICOT 2006 programme includes: Workshops 22 - 26 February Tutorials 27 - 28 February Conference 1 - 2 March APNIC Member Meeting 3 March Full information about APRICOT 2006 can be seen at http://www.2006.apricot.net Program information is at: http://www.apricot2006.net/index.php/fuseaction/home.program Registration information is at: http://www.2006.apricot.net/index.php/fuseaction/home.registration You are encouraged to register as soon as possible as the early bird registration discount expires on the 14th of January. If you aren't an AU or NZ citizen, visa information is at: http://www.apricot2006.net/index.php/fuseaction/home.visas You must register on-line before submitting a visa application - note that application times for visas for non-ETA countries can be quite lengthy, so please start the registration and application process as soon as you can. You can select a checkbox to request an invitation letter from us to be used for your visa application during registration if you require one, this is an automated process. Accommodation information is at: http://www.2006.apricot.net/index.php/fuseaction/home.accommodation You are encouraged to make arrangements for accommodation as soon as possible as the APRICOT discounted room block expires on the 18th of January. After this date we must release remaining rooms, you then need to compete with the general tourist public for room availability. Sponsorship opportunities still exist for interested companies. Information on Sponsorship is available online at: http://www.apricot2006.net/index.php/fuseaction/home.sponsorship

Mail issues in/out of China
by Gary T. Benner 17 Jan '06

17 Jan '06

HI all, I have a client with staff member in China who has had consistent difficulty accessing our mail server, both using pop *and* the webmail client. Yet access from within NZ has been faultless. If anyone has had experience in this area, are there issues relating to the Chinese Authorities intercepting such communications, or would it be just to do with the connection? regards Gary Benner 123 Internet Ltd

Just so that operators are kept informed, we have been running radio interviews with a strong visual component on the Matinee Idle studio cam. Yesterday was Pets, today is Tattoos. Interest in both the live audio and studio cams has been very high. cheers, Richard Hulse Radio NZ
