Charging for IPv6
by Philip D'Ath 24 Aug '08

24 Aug '08

Initially those transit providers and ISPs that do offer IPv6 transit will be able to charge for this service as it will be a premium value add. However I can't see this business model being able to last for more than 6 years (through to 2012), and possibly only three years. After this point in time I expect IPv6 deployment will be standard, and will no longer be a premium service offering - it will be the standard offering, like IPv4 is today. Once IPv4 has become exhausted and you can't actually give a customer an IPv4 address then you definitely wont be able to charge more for IPv6 - otherwise the customer will walk. So do providers start implementing slowly now, and recoup some of their investment while they can, or wait till they are forced to do the upgrades and are not able to recoup any of their "new" investment. Rhetorical question.

Incorrect / missing WHOIS details
by John ＠ netTRUST 26 Jan '07

26 Jan '07

Do any members present have any feelings about domain names that have misleading or ommited core/required contact details? I refer to cults.co.nz - a controversial religious themed website - though the issue at hand here is their whois, not their content. This may be a breach of rule 7.1 of the DNC's publication "Registering, Managing and Cancelling domain names" which reads- 7.1 When registering a new domain name the registrar will supply the following data: * Domain name. * Name server list. * Registrant contact details. * Administrative contact details. * Technical contact details. * Billing term. Also the registrar involved may be in breach of section 8.1 which reads- 8.1 Registrars will be required to maintain the details of the domain names for which they are the registrar. They will be able to amend/update the following fields: 􀂃 Name Server List. 􀂃 Registrant Name. 􀂃 Registrant Contact Details. 􀂃 Registrant Customer ID. 􀂃 Administrative Contact Details. 􀂃 Technical Contact Details. 􀂃 Billing Term. While the specifics as to whether this is a technical breach or not should be determined by the DNC and what I have stated above is only an opinion,. this is still a practice I feel should not be permitted to take hold in New Zealand. The publication mentioned is located at: http://www.dnc.org.nz/content//registering_managing_cancelling.pdf

NZNOG 2007 on 31 January - 2 February 2007
by Lin Nah 25 Jan '07

25 Jan '07

Hi Reminder: The nznog meet this year is at Massey University Campus, Palmerston North starting on 31 January to 2 February 2007. InspireNet is hosting this year. To those of you already going, check out wiki.nznog.org I know there's a whole lot more ppl who are attending but not found the wiki yet. Don't worry about reading the rest of this email. To those not attending: I urge you to consider coming to the conference. It isn't too late to register for it. I hope no one was put off by the "deadlines" mentioned in earlier posts. Registrations are still being accepted. If you don't know much about it check out www.nznog.org The programme will include: * AS-Path analysis: Testing claims of "tier-1" status and examining BGP routing anomalies by Gaurab Upadhaya, Packet Clearing House (PCH) * Connecting the dots: Graph theory, Telecom Policy, & Internet Evolution by Tom Vest, UC San Diego Supercomputer Center (CAIDA) * Open Source VoIP Platform in Carrier Environments by James Jones, Virtual Realm Software * Dealing with Joe-jobs (spam backscatter attacks) by Simon Howard, DMZGlobal Ltd * Network Control Planes: Subscriber authentication, authorization, and accounting, network policy deployment and enforcement, and a look at solutions to do that by Alastair Johnson, Alcatel-Lucent On the Wednesday we have * APNIC Internet Resource Management Essentials tutorial. * Microtik RouterOS Training * MPLS and fixed access networks for beginners * Sysadmin Day for sysadmins who work at ISPs. Sessions will be recorded. There are plans to stream the sessions as well BUT one never knows when Murphy's law will strike. Information will be available on the wiki regarding the streams etc when we have the information. The conference is more than just the sessions. It is the people you meet and the links made for future cooperation. Attached is a document that will hopefully help anyone attempting to apply for permission to attend NZNOG at this stage. Perhaps one method is to compare the cost of attending NZNOG with attending training courses. Hopefully it isn't too late for you. Have a good weekend! regards lin

VoIP and NZ ENUM services
by Nick Larsen 25 Jan '07

25 Jan '07

Hey people, Does anyone know the outcome of the ENUM trial in NZ (by InternetNZ), or is it still going? I've researched it a bit, but it seems the trial has ended (or maybe I just haven't searched hard enough ;)). Any info on ENUM in New Zealand or a pointer in the right direction would be great. Cheers, Nick Larsen
