Notification of NZRR Database changes
by NZRR Database Notifications 31 May '06

31 May '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: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS18353 descr: Route set advertised to AS9439 by HDS - AS18353 members: 202.55.96.176/28^28-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: kenneth.liew(a)hdsnz.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20051006 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS18353 descr: advertised to AS9439 by Revera - AS18353 members: 202.55.99.0/24^24-29, 202.55.96.176/28^28-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: Marc.Nienkemper(a)revera.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060601 source: NZRR

Police Hoax Email
by Keith Davidson 30 May '06

30 May '06

Just a heads up for anyone not aware of this... Keith Davidson www.police.govt.nz/news/release/2445.html Hoax police email 10:03am 31 May 2006 A hoax email is circulating within New Zealand which purports to be a notification from NZ Police. The email has this subject line - "Notification from Police New_Zealand" The email is clearly a hoax but is causing some concern in the public with callers contacting police for clarification. The email suggests that recipients are "under suspicion of financial machination." It then asks receivers to fill in details and fax or email details. Police are investigating the email which does contain a trojan virus. The virus will be filtered out so long as computers have anti-virus software on their machines. Members of the public who are receiving the email with the subject line - "Notification from Police New_Zealand" - should simply delete it and do not need to contact Police about the matter. ENDS

Can anyone at telecom tell me why they're sending emails from this domain (wireline.co.nz) when it has no useful DNS? Where is my mail system supposed to send bounces etc?

Podcasting Heads Up
by Webmaster 29 May '06

29 May '06

Operators should be aware that due to increased demand on our podcasting service, and the number of requests we've had to increase the quality of the files, we'll be increasing the data rates of all files offered from our US mirror. At the moment all US files have the same names as NZ hosted files, but are actually lower rates. Over the next 2 weeks this will change, with the US server becoming a full mirror. The data rates of files will double (from 24k to 48k) to match those hosted in NZ. We've been able to do this because we have extra capacity in the US and can serve the extra traffic at no additional cost to us. At present NZ bound traffic from the US server sits at 10-15 Mb/s during the day. Local operators who do not peer with our NZ servers will see an increase in international inbound traffic (about double) from the US mirror over the next two weeks. After that you should allow for an increase of 10-15% per week - our current growth rate. Those who peer with our servers in New Zealand are not affected by this change. regards, Richard Hulse Radio NZ

[Fwd: APNIC ip6.int services to end 1 June 2006]
by Andy Linton 29 May '06

29 May '06

Not that this isn't because the IPv6 camp are giving up and going home. (:-) andy -------- Original Message -------- Subject: APNIC ip6.int services to end 1 June 2006 Date: Mon, 29 May 2006 21:31:42 +1000 From: sanjaya(a)apnic.net To: asjl(a)citylink.co.nz Dear colleagues, APNIC will cease all ip6.int reverse delegation services at approximately 10:00 UTC+10 (00:00 UTC) on 1 June 2006. At that time, APNIC will withdraw the delegations for the following sub-domains under 1.0.0.2.ip6.int: 2.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int 3.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int c.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int d.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int e.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int f.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int 4.4.1.0.0.2.ip6.int 5.4.1.0.0.2.ip6.int 8.1.0.0.2.ip6.int 9.1.0.0.2.ip6.int a.1.0.0.2.ip6.int All ip6.int delegations within these sub-domains will then cease to be recognised by most DNS resolvers (although cached delegation information may take some time to expire). APNIC will back-up all whois objects associated with these sub-domains and will continue to monitor DNS traffic during this period to review behaviour. However, as the IETF has formally deprecated ip6.int for reverse-DNS, re-delegation is not expected to occur.

Hello.. . TelstraClear hosts this NZ root name server replica on its infrastructure. We are physically moving the servers that run this name server this weekend. This will cause an outage to ns4.dns.net.nz at around 6AM Saturday 27th May 2006 for around 2 minutes, when we migrate the routing for the name server from one site to the new site. Russell (TelstraClear IS Operations)
