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:AS2687 descr: advertised to AS9560 by AT&T Global Network Services - AS2687 members: 202.46.160.0/20^20-29, 202.126.80.0/21^21-29, 202.160.112.0/21^21-29, 202.36.192.0/22^22-29, 152.158.254.0/23^23-29, 202.36.68.0/23^23-29, 202.135.48.0/23^23-29, 203.163.70.0/23^23-29, 202.12.105.0/24^24-29, 202.21.128.0/24^24-29, 202.27.160.0/24^24-29, 202.36.29.0/24^24-29, 202.36.80.0/24^24-29, 202.37.254.0/24^24-29, 202.49.144.0/24^24-29, 202.50.137.0/24^24-29, 202.135.20.0/24^24-29, 202.135.34.0/24^24-29, 202.135.38.0/24^24-29, 202.135.62.0/24^24-29, 202.135.64.0/24^24-29, 202.135.85.0/24^24-29, 202.135.107.0/24^24-29, 202.135.111.0/24^24-29, 202.135.112.0/24^24-29, 202.135.116.0/24^24-29, 202.135.142.0/24^24-29, 202.135.182.0/24^24-29, 202.135.185.0/24^24-29, 202.135.190.0/24^24-29, 202.135.192.0/24^24-29, 202.135.231.0/24^24-29, 202.135.234.0/24^24-29, 203.57.145.0/24^24-29, 203.163.68.0/24^24-29, 203.163.86.0/24^24-29, 203.163.94.0/24^24-29, 203.163.98.0/24^24-29, 203.196.101.0/24^24-29, 203.196.119.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: david.lister(a)ap.att.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20051223 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS2687 descr: advertised to AS9560 by AT&T - AS2687 members: 202.46.160.0/20^20-29, 202.126.80.0/21^21-29, 202.160.112.0/21^21-29, 202.175.128.0/21^21-29, 202.14.20.0/22^22-29, 202.36.192.0/22^22-29, 152.158.254.0/23^23-29, 202.14.82.0/23^23-29, 202.36.68.0/23^23-29, 202.36.198.0/23^23-29, 202.135.48.0/23^23-29, 203.163.70.0/23^23-29, 192.203.216.0/24^24-29, 202.12.105.0/24^24-29, 202.14.84.0/24^24-29, 202.14.252.0/24^24-29, 202.21.128.0/24^24-29, 202.27.76.0/24^24-29, 202.27.140.0/24^24-29, 202.27.160.0/24^24-29, 202.27.250.0/24^24-29, 202.36.29.0/24^24-29, 202.36.80.0/24^24-29, 202.36.233.0/24^24-29, 202.37.254.0/24^24-29, 202.49.144.0/24^24-29, 202.50.137.0/24^24-29, 202.135.20.0/24^24-29, 202.135.34.0/24^24-29, 202.135.38.0/24^24-29, 202.135.62.0/24^24-29, 202.135.64.0/24^24-29, 202.135.85.0/24^24-29, 202.135.107.0/24^24-29, 202.135.111.0/24^24-29, 202.135.112.0/24^24-29, 202.135.116.0/24^24-29, 202.135.142.0/24^24-29, 202.135.146.0/24^24-29, 202.135.182.0/24^24-29, 202.135.185.0/24^24-29, 202.135.190.0/24^24-29, 202.135.192.0/24^24-29, 202.135.231.0/24^24-29, 202.135.234.0/24^24-29, 203.57.145.0/24^24-29, 203.163.68.0/24^24-29, 203.163.86.0/24^24-29, 203.163.94.0/24^24-29, 203.163.98.0/24^24-29, 203.196.101.0/24^24-29, 203.196.119.0/24^24-29, 203.196.121.0/24^24-29, 210.55.5.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: david.lister(a)ap.att.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060606 source: NZRR

Strange increase/decrease in mail rejection stats
by Simon 05 Jun '06

05 Jun '06

Hi There, I have noticed that since XTRA moved to their new mail platform, that we have had a steady increase in rejected email from fepXX.xtra.co.nz (mainly rejected due to invalid from' domain name). However, as of this morning at about 1pm, the rejected rate dropped right back to minimal again. Is someone at XTRA allowed to let us know if there have been mail system changes at their end? - and if there is any impact beyond the above? Just checking as its a bit strange to see a graph do that without getting all "OK, what do i need to check now..". Cheers Simon

In which case it was half the Internet - and if all we had was 14K for the whole country - well, say no more. Its debatable if that really was an Internet connection in the modern sense. 14K poses a significant restriction on what was actually possible, even back then. and yes - it is 14K each way - because a leased line is two pairs (four wires), not two wires like a home user has with a dial-up modem. It's a full duplex link, and yes we (cough) have moved along way in nearly 20 years, broadband may be faster on occasions. And not detecting a cariier - it can't detect the carrier signal from the modem at the other end - because both should see each others carrier. -----Original Message----- From: Perry Lorier [mailto:perry(a)coders.net] Sent: Friday, 2 June 2006 4:59 p.m. To: Jeremy Strachan Subject: Re: [nznog] What is this?

2400, 4800, 9600, and yes even 14.4K was possible, and 19.2K. It probably ran over leased (conditioned) dedicated lines. It looks like a 1987 date on the back to me ... It is probably both large and heavy.

I will check on the process when i wake up roughly 3.5 hours later. I will be glad to send you email at that time to confirm removal. --bill ....... that being said, the RIR requested delegations have been removed from the IP6.INT zone. what remains is: # dig 2.ip6.int. axfr @::1 ; <<>> DiG 9.3.2 <<>> 2.ip6.int. axfr @::1 ; (1 server found) ;; global options: printcmd 2.ip6.int. 86400 IN SOA dot.ep.net. hostmaster.ep.net. 1999061700 10800 900 604800 129600 2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS z.ip6.int. 2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS dot.ep.net. 2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS flag.ep.net. 0.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS z.ip6.int. 0.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS dot.ep.net. 0.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS flag.ep.net. 1.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS z.ip6.int. 1.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS dot.ep.net. 1.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS flag.ep.net. 2.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS z.ip6.int. 2.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS dot.ep.net. 2.0.0.2.ip6.int. 86400 IN NS flag.ep.net. 2.ip6.int. 86400 IN SOA dot.ep.net. hostmaster.ep.net. 1999061700 10800 900 604800 129600 ;; Query time: 4 msec ;; SERVER: ::1#53(::1) ;; WHEN: Thu Jun 1 06:44:20 2006 ;; XFR size: 14 records (messages 14) --bill
