NZNOG-People, I have just finished migrating all of the mailing lists held at The University of Waikato from one server to another. I don't have any reason to believe that anything's gone wrong, but please bear with me for today if it turns out that something has. - Donald Neal -- Donald Neal | Q: How many Aucklanders does it take to change Systems Programmer/Analyst | a light bulb?

by Anushah Hossain 16 Jul '19

16 Jul '19

Hi everyone, I'm a researcher at UC Berkeley and the International Computer Science Institute. My colleagues and I are working on evaluating and improving the accuracy of blacklists. As part of this work, we'd like to hear from you about the blacklists you currently use, what you perceive as their strengths and weaknesses, and any thoughts you have on how they might be improved. We've prepared an anonymous survey where you can share your views: https://berkeley.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_200mg5hnQiAOgUl If you have five to ten minutes free today to fill it out, I would greatly appreciate your help! Thank you, and please don't hesitate to respond to me with comments or questions. (Apologies if you receive this message twice - trying to minimize cross-posting while still reaching a broad audience) Best, Anushah -- Anushah Hossain, PhD Student Energy and Resources Group, UC Berkeley

Using Cloudflare after Christchurch
by Peter Lambrechtsen 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

I don't think this question has been asked but I think it's worth asking. After the Christchurch attacks and the fact that Cloudflare clearly support terrorist and white supremacist sites has there been any consideration on if peering or engaging with Cloudflare is something that providers no longer wish to participate in. Or there isn't a sense of morality when it comes to the internet. Cloudflare have a LONG history of not caring about any and all vile material and have absolutely no intention to do anything about it from the engagements I have had with them post Christchurch. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/05/cloudflare-changes-abuse-policy… https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/12/19/cloudflare_terror_groups/ https://suespammers.net/tag/cloudflare-com-doing-nothing-about-spam-abuse/ https://krebsonsecurity.com/tag/cloudflare/ https://www.propublica.org/article/how-cloudflare-helps-serve-up-hate-on-th… To me they are clearly supportive of all sorts of vile content and have zero interest in doing anything about it while they still earn money. Has the horrific events of Christchurch given anyone pause to think if they want to engage with Cloudflare? Are morals important when running a service?. Peter

Shutting down the RPKI Validator
by Sebastian Castro 03 Jul '19

03 Jul '19

Hello, community: Back in 2014 InternetNZ (NZRS at that time) set up and made publicly available an RPKI Validator (validator.rpki.net.nz). It allows network engineers to test ROA validation in their routers without the hassle of setting up and maintaining their own. During the last five years, very little use has been given to the validator, with one registered user during that time. Currently, we are using a piece of old software that’s no longer maintained. With that in mind, we’d like to announce we’ll be shutting down validator.rpki.net.nz on 15 July 2019. We might rebuild the service if there is a need from the community using modern software, so please let us know if you would like it back. In the meantime, we appreciate the involvement of the NZNOG community with the validator, including a couple of presentations making reference to the service in the last years. Kind Regards, -- Sebastian Castro Chief Scientist @ InternetNZ desk: +64 4 495 2337 mobile: +64 21 400535

decent SOHO switches?
by Richard Hector 01 Jul '19

01 Jul '19

Hi all, I hope this isn't too far off topic. What's available in the way of managed switches (at least including 802.1q VLANs) at a suitable price for a small office? The (8-port) one I bought 4 years ago, even at the time the https ui didn't work, because browsers had stopped supporting old certs or ciphers or something. I raised it with the wholesaler, who raised it with the manufacturer - no new firmware ever came out. I couldn't load my own cert onto it either. Is there anything better around, at a reasonable price? I'm not keen on what I understand is the cisco model either, where you have to maintain a support contract to get any updates. Stretching even further - I don't suppose there's anything out there with fully Free (as in freedom) firmware? Does SDN give us that? Feel free to reply off-list if you don't want to promote (or disparage) your suppliers (or self) in public :-) Cheers, Richard
