Hi All, Wearing my INZ hat here. The Domain Name Commission is currently running a consultation process around the .nz WHOIS policies and InternetNZ would like to encourage people to make submissions on that process. This is especially true of people in the technical and security fields. While I don't want to offer an opinion about the current policies, any of the submissions, or proposals, what I do want to do is to encourage you to read the proposal and submissions and consider if you might like to make a submission of your own on the process. You can see more information at the link below with an outline of a proposed process. https://dnc.org.nz/consultation-whois-review-process If you think that there might be a better process than the one outlined then please put in a submission with your input and if possible details of an alternative process.

Mikrotik BGP VRF Advise
by Liam Farr 18 May '16

18 May '16

Hi, Im looking for someone to give some architectural advise on setting up VRFs on a Mikrotik for separating out BGP routing table functionally. E.g. Local BGP Peers / Local IX's > Local VRF National Transit BGP Peers > National VRF International Transit BGP Peers > International VRF Then leaking those routes into other VRFs, for example a customer transit VRF containing routes from all three. Is there anyone other there who has done this on a Mikrotik (preferably in production) that might be interested in providing some architectural advise / initial configuration help? Payment in cash / beer / hard liquor / your preferred currency. -- Kind Regards Liam Farr Maxum Data +64-9-950-5302

Exploit on Ubiquiti AirOS
by Dean Pemberton 16 May '16

16 May '16

Hi All I'm told that the local WISP operator community is dealing with a new worm[1] that exploits Ubiquiti AirOS devices running older firmwares. This could potentially be a lot of devices. http://community.ubnt.com/t5/airMAX-General-Discussion/Virus-attack-URGENT-… has ISPs from Spain, Brasil, and the US reporting infections in thelast 24 hours. Versions prior to these are vulnerable: 5.5.11 XM/TI. 5.5.10u2 XW 5.6.2 XW/XM/TI There looks to be some more information here which might or might not be related. https://hackerone.com/reports/73491 If you know anyone who makes use of UBNT AirOS products, now might be a time to give them a nudge. [1] quote from the forums "It's a self-distributing virus, so, once it can "see" neighbour antenas within the same subnet, it attacks the others."

AS17746 Gone burger
by Simon Allard 05 May '16

05 May '16

Good Morning NZNog. Just a FYI AS17746 is no longer aggregating any of the ex-Orcon IPv4 or Ipv6 subnets. These have been moved to AS9790. Its made our IPV6 uptake stats look a little sad, but that's just how it is. 17746 is still in the AS path for some routes, but the goal is for that to change overtime. Any issues encountered, please sing out Cheers, Si Simon Allard | Senior Network Architect D: 09 550 2790E: Simon.Allard(a)m2group.co.nz M: 020 100 0790W: vocus.co.nz A: PO Box 108-109, Symonds St, Auckland 1150

Xtra mail issues
by Chris Roberts 18 Apr '16

18 Apr '16

Hi Is there someone that can help with the issue of delayed mail with Xtra / Yahoo. There has been no mail sent to the xtra domain for some days now (like a week) so should there have been any issues it should have resolved. The NZNOG phone number for the NOC ends in Asia with some unhelpful people. We suspect the issue may have been caused by a winery sending a newsletter or a compromised user email address as you do from time to time. The domain that is being rejected is amuri.net I some one can contact me or sam(a)amuri.net or remove the block which would be even better that would be great. Below is the reject message: Action: failed Status: 4.4.2 Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with mx2.tnz.mail.yahoo.com[124.108.96.211] while sending RCPT TO and The mail system <xxxxxxx(a)xtra.co.nz>: delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with mx2.tnz.mail.yahoo.com[124.108.96.211] while sending RCPT TO Cheers Chris --

OT: Dodgy Russian port-scanning service / 158.255.5.147 causing high CPU
by Liam Farr 16 Apr '16

16 Apr '16

Hi, Just thought I’d throw this at the list, more of an interest piece than anything. A downstream network noticed today some extra latency on their network, caused by a significant increase in packets / CPU usage on a Mikrotik CCR in the path. At approximately 3:20 am this morning there was an uptick of about 25k PPS on their network, although not a significant increase in the amount of overall traffic (mbps) on the network. After some investigation this afternoon it was found that the additional increase in traffic was coming from 158.255.5.147 which appears to be a Russian web based port scanning service. While the service itself claims not to be malicious, by design it was causing a detrimental affect on the customer network, (increased CPU and increased latency), there is also the question of what the results of the port scan are used for, which I highly doubt is a legitimate purpose... Anyway enjoy your Sunday :) Liam

RAD E1 over IP converters
by Richard Naylor 11 Apr '16

11 Apr '16

Having a bit of a clean out here and found a pair of RAD IP-MUX-11 units. They are E1 over IP. Basically they use about 10Mbps to shift an E1 circuit (2 Mbps). One unit has a faulty power supply (5v and 3.5V) but otherwise is good. Free to a good home can be your "home lab" or business - otherwise they go into the recycle bin. Email off list if you're interested will this (de)generate into a series of emails...... Rich

Contacting Microsoft regarding Domain Names
by lennon＠orcon.net.nz 03 Apr '16

03 Apr '16

I tried contacting Microsoft Regarding .kiwi.nz domain a number of times but I have had no response from them and the problem has not been resolved. (This is over multiple years and multiple complaints) (Its only been 4 years) The Problem is.... I own www.kiwi.nz. This shouldn’t actually cause any problems except with bing webmaster tools. (Most other people including Google get it right within a few days/weeks) . Yes at the start I expected a problem but seeing all the bing stats for the thousands of other .kiwi.nz domains isn’t interesting for me. I expect people who own other domains like www.maori.nz and www.geek.nz etc would have the same issue as well maybe but you never know. Craig

A huge thanks to all of the past Trustees - you have all done such fantastic work setting up solid structures and processes (with documentation!) that our jobs are less chaotic than I recall from pre-Trust days. Cheers, Gerard (NZNOG Trustee)

New survey report published: The regulatory conditions of internet interconnection
by Uta Meier-Hahn 29 Feb '16

29 Feb '16

Hi, A couple of months ago, I asked you to share your experiences with regards to public regulation of internet interconnection in a survey. Many networkers from around the globe participated. Thank you! The report has now been published. I’m including the executive summary below. The full paper can be downloaded at <http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2740312>. Feel free to share this link wherever you see fit. Thanks again for providing your highly valuable input. I will be happy to hear what you think about the results. Best wishes, Uta # Exploring the regulatory conditions of internet interconnection ## Executive summary Network interconnection is a central feature of the internet that has been subject to only little formal regulation. However, local public regulation is starting to emerge – be it through disclosure regulations, mandatory peering or licensing terms. Due to the networked nature of the internet, local rules may acquire a global scope. This report explores internet interconnection professionals’ encounters with public regulation and it provides an initial overview about how this regulation affects internet connectivity. On the basis of a convenience sample of 163 survey submissions, the following has been found: * Nine out of ten kinds of regulation presented to the participants have been encountered by more than half of them. This result gives reason to revisit the widespread notion that internet interconnection is an unregulated space. 66% of the participants have encountered a regulatory authority that imposes its own technical or operational standards. Moreover, imposition of regulatory standards was regarded to be the most influential on internet interconnection practices, together with competition laws (both 67%). * Local regulation of internet interconnection creates a tension between the regulated and the unregulated space in the internet. In order to overcome the normative difference, network operators need to make an extra effort. The degree to which network operators are affected by local regulation depends on a networks’ structure rather than on its size. Local regulation raises more difficulties for the kinds of infrastructural innovations that depend on having many points of presence. * For networkers, public regulation of internet interconnection is relevant in three thematic domains: 1) in the economies of internet interconnection, 2) in engineering and operations, and 3) in the modes of governance. * Overarching observations note that public regulation of internet interconnection contributes to a formalisation of the otherwise very informal sector. It also shines a spotlight on how networks are categorised and are thereby “prepared” for the application of regulation. Further, various examples highlight how regulatory authorities co-opt internet infrastructure for new policy purposes that were previously not understood as central to internet operations, e.g., data retention. * Local networkers value the presence of international network operators not only as potential peering partners but also as mediators for know-how about best practices and advanced modes of internet interconnection. * Networkers are very critical about regulations that contradict engineering principles. The most accepted forms of regulation also apply in other societal spheres: basic rights for citizens, e.g., for broadband, and competition regulation. — Uta Meier-Hahn | Doctoral Researcher Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society Französische Straße 9 | 10117 Berlin Phone +49 30 200 760-82 | http://www.hiig.de/en

Is it the TCF themselves, or a subbie? The site content has all gone missing with the various pages now reporting default-install messages along the lines of 'Welcome to SilverStripe! This is the default homepage'. Even the 'contact us' page has a similar message. Hence the request here for contact details :) Would appreciate a pointer from anyone who can point me in the right direction for a maintainer contact. Pete Mundy

Morning, We've got a client in Auckland with a Cisco UC560 PBX. This isn't a unit we're familiar with.

Sneak Peak at some of the 2016 APRICOT programme.
by Dean Pemberton 19 Jan '16

19 Jan '16

Hey everyone. There must be some perk to having two Kiwis as the co-chairs of the APRICOT programme committee. All I could think of was that I can give you guys a look at the titles of some of the talks we've accepted before they make it up on the website. So here you go. There's more coming in as well as more already submitted that we're working to put the final touches to. So no more excuses, If you needed a reason for your boss, choose some of those and register here: https://2016.apricot.net/register If you know anyone who works for one of our telcos.... I can't recommend the "IPv6 in Mobile Networks" tutorial by Sunny Yeung(a)Telstra enough. He's a great speaker and he's got all the experiences from an organisation who has actually gone down the track of doing something here. If anyone got an issue with not being able to register for any reason, then email me personally and lets have a chat. Don't forget, there's no NZNOG this year, so this is basically it =) Dean CONFERENCE TALKS 'OpenFlow: What is it Good For?' - Pete Moyer(a)Brocade 'Virtualisation For Network Testing & Staff Training' - Philip Smith(a)Network Startup Resource Center 'EDNS (in)Compatibility: Adventures in Protocol Extension' - Eddy Winstead(a)ISC 'Building a Small DC' - Karl Brumund(a)Dyn 'Recent Network Trends in Asia and Oceania' - Cody Williams(a)TeleGeography 'Next Generation Network Architectures' - Sunny Yeung(a)Telstra Corporation Limited 'BGP in 2015' - Geoffrey Huston(a)APNIC 'IPv6 Performance' - Geoffrey Huston(a)APNIC 'New Zealand Broadband Map' - Jay Daley(a)NZRS 'prefix hijacked' - Yoshinobu Matsuzaki(a)IIJ 'SoftBank Global AS migration practice' - Hirokazu Taira(a)SoftBank 'Why I should Model my Network' - Jeff Young(a)Juniper Networks 'Making the best of satellite links to Pacific Islands' - Ulrich Speidel(a)University of Auckland 'DDoD Mitigation using BGP Flowspec' - Justin Ryburn(a)Juniper Networks 'Bit Indexed Explicit Replication (BIER)' - Greg Shepherd(a)Cisco 'Top Misused ASNs' - Anurag Bhatia(a)Hurricane Electric TUTORIALS 'IPv6 in Mobile Networks' - Sunny Yeung(a)Telstra Corporation Limited 'NETCONF/YANG' - Shishio Tsuchiya(a)Cisco Systems G.K.

Suggestions for a lab switch?
by Lloyd Parkes 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Hi all, I’ve run out of port capacity in my lab, so I need another switch. Since it’s a lab, I want a brand of switch that I don’t already have so that I can do more testing. Since it’s a brand I don’t already have, I don’t really know what to get. What I want/need is: managed (somehow, SNMP at least) gigabit (I have lots of 100Mb thanks) rack mount around $600 (so, an SMB class switch I guess) ~24 ports What I don’t want/need (I have these already): obsolete Cisco IOS devices Mikrotik Netgear D-Link a lemon PoE Please reply off list with suggestions of devices to either buy or avoid.

Whole of Domain (.nz) 2016 Web Harvest
by Jay Gattuso 22 Dec '15

22 Dec '15

Hi Noggers, Further to previous emails (6th Nov 2015), we are all set to kick off the web harvest in the new year. We’ll be starting the crawl on the 11th Jan 2016, and expect to be crawling for approximately 3 to 4 weeks. The crawlers will be using the user agent string ““NLNZ_IAHarvester2016” so if you do need to set any specific rules for our crawlers this would be the identifier to use. The robots.txt and Robots META tag exclusions on crawled sites will be obeyed with some minor exceptions:- We’ll strictly obey all rules that relate to the user agent (apart from slash pages, which will be harvested regardless). Facebook and some other curated social media sites will be harvested regardless of their Robots.txt. The Crawl Notification (Notice to Webmasters) page is located at on the Library’s web site at: http://natlib.govt.nz/publishers-and-authors/web-harvesting/domain-harvest. If you have any questions or concerns about the harvest, please drop me a line. I’ll watch for email at various points over the Christmas break, and back in the office on the 4th Jan to address any questions/concerns. Best, Jay Jay Gattuso | Digital Preservation Analyst | Preservation, Research and Consultancy National Library of New Zealand | Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa PO Box 1467 Wellington 6140 New Zealand | +64 (0)4 474 3064 jay.gattuso(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:jay.gattuso(a)natlib.govt.nz>

NZNog/Apricot
by Patrick Jordan-Smith 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

Hi guys and mostly the NZNOG trustees (whoever they are at the moment.) I remember seeing a while back that some funds were going to be made available for helping people fund the cost of attending Apricot (since it's taking the place of the 2016 conference.) Did anything ever eventuate out of this? The cost for Apricot is significantly higher than the usual nznog cost plus hotels etc if you're not from Auckland. Would be good to see some clarity on this given that early bird tickets are now closed and not everyone has a corporate to fund their attendance. Even if its a "its not happening" comment that would be still helpful. Alternately have the trustees talked to the Apricot organisers at all about possibilities? Thanks, Pat

Orcon IPv6 Rollout
by Simon Allard 06 Dec '15

06 Dec '15

Hi NZNog Riding on the coat tails of the Stuff IPv6 post (which is really cool btw!). Over the last few weeks we have been rolling out Ipv6 dual stack on the Orcon customer base. We targeted this brand as the CPE's we give to customers has support for IPv6. (Some modems require firmware upgrades which we are pushing out). If this goes well for us, we will review Ipv6 for the other brands in the new year. Currently just supporting ipv6 on the xDSL product range, with UFB coming in the new year. Seeing some really good stats coming through on the APNIC Ipv6 Stats page (http://stats.labs.apnic.net/ipv6/AS17746) - The 1 month view shows the best trend. Still very early days and I expect to see that number grow as CPE firmware gets pushed out and customers reconnect to get their IPV6 PD. Feedback from customers has been positive :D Any questions please drop me a line Cheers, Si Simon Allard | Senior Network Architect D: 09 550 2790M: 020 100 0790 www.orcon.net.nz | www.slingshot.co.nz | www.flip.co.nz | www.callplus.co.nz | www.2talk.co.nz Shared Services Banner This message and any attachments contain privileged and confidential information.

UFB DFAS Lawful Interception

Hi All. Does anyone here know what the LFC's are doing for LI on dark fibre?

Normally I'd look at the CFH tech specs but LI on DFAS came after them and there's no reference in the agreements Cheers :) TRISTRAM CHEER UBER GROUP LIMITED NETWORK ARCHITECT - MOST PROBLEMS ARE THE RESULT OF PREVIOUS SOLUTIONS...

Whose residential UFB in Whanganui has diverse backhaul?
by Donald Gordon 26 Nov '15

26 Nov '15

Hi I've had UFB at home for two years now. I'm on to my second ISP. ISP #1 had an 8 hour outage for all their Whanganui UFB customers due to fault in their backhaul. ISP #2 had a 20 hour outage last month for all their Whanganui UFB customers due to a fault in their backhaul (they say Chorus) between here and Palmerston North. Who provides residential UFB in Whanganui that won't be brought down by a single backhaul fibre fault? I realise I'm getting a residential service with essentially no SLA, and that the fibre between me and the interconnect point is a single point of failure. I'm happy to take off list answers and won't post your answers publicly unless you particularly want me to. Regards Donald Gordon

UPC lite - does anyone have any info on what kind of service this actually is?
by Mike Taylor 23 Nov '15

23 Nov '15

I'm trying to get some sensible info on exactly what a 'UPC lite' circuit from Chorus is. The info I've managed to glean so far is: - It's an ATM based service (PVC 0/101 from the info I can get from googling.) - I'm told it can only be delivered over a BUBA handover - which means it looks like it might be an aDSL service, restricted to 256k up/down So, putting all this together, it sounds like I'll need an aDSL modem, and treat it just like a 'normal' residential aDSL service, but on PVC 0/101, with PPP <?> and PAP/CHAP? Does anyone have the low down on what this actually is? Thanks in advance, Mike Just so you know, the only two links I could find that say anything useful about UPC lite were: http://www.sparkwholesale.co.nz/n36,3,letter=u.html and http://www.gpforums.co.nz/threads/420210-UPC-lite-connection-%28need-help%29 --

Hi all We have finally fixed our 2M upload issues on Chorus UFB accelerate plans. Skip to the end of this email if you just want an example fix. Along the way we established a couple of incorrect "facts". Some of which I shared with this list. These were: 1) DEI marked packets were being silently dropped on ingress from the Chorus handover 2) Junos 12.3 fixed this issue Recently I deemed that "fact" 1) was wrong and hence "fact" 2) was a bit irrelevant. Here's a crude diagram of our typical set-up: <Chorus handover> <-> [1] <MX80> [2] <-> MPLS/VPLS over Backhaul fibre <-> [3] <PMR MPLS MX> [4] <-> [5] <PMR BNG> Where the numbers in the square brackets are interfaces where I performed some traffic stats. I deemed that DEI=1 marked packets were still showing up at [1] and [3]. They were not showing up at interfaces [4] and [5]. This deemed my above "facts" incorrect. With Juniper CoS you classify on ingress and rewrite on egress. Once we deemed that DEI marked packets were not being dropped at [1] and instead were being dropped between [3] and [4] we can now rewrite these before interface [4]. As we need to rewrite on egress we'll do this at point [2]. In our test case interface [2] is actually xe-1/2/0.388 . And a simple fix for the issue is under the class-of-service section implement: interfaces { xe-1/2/0 { unit 388 { rewrite-rules { ieee-802.1ad { ieee-802.1ad-dei-rewrite; vlan-tag outer; } } } } } rewrite-rules { ieee-802.1ad ieee-802.1ad-dei-rewrite { forwarding-class best-effort { loss-priority low code-point 0000; loss-priority high code-point 0000; } } } The key is to use a ieee-802.1ad rewrite rule rather than a ieee-802.1 rule. The leftmost bit of the 4 bit code-point is the DEI bit. This is all assuming that all traffic is classified as best-effort at interface [1] - if that is not the case then re-write the DEI bit for your other queues as well. You only need to rewrite the outer vlan DEI bit. This is tested on Junos 12.3R8.7 on a MX80. Thanks to all involved in helping fix this - Steve K, Vance and Ivan especially. Cheers Dave

Cisco Config for Chorus HSNS SHDSL Service?
by Alan Howard 19 Nov '15

19 Nov '15

Hi I have to configure a Cisco 888EA router for a 10Mb HSNS SHDSL service from Chorus, which is not something I have tackled before. Does anyone have a config example suitable for the Chorus service that they can share? I've been Googling for a config but can't find anything specific to Chorus. Any assistance appreciated. Alan.

18 Nov '15

Hi team Sooo would anyone happen to be in Auckland and have a couple of spare GLC-T 1G SFP modules that they'd be willing to part with for a month or so? The $nobrand ones we got coded for our Nexus 9Ks don't work in our 3k :( And now in a bit of a pinch... If you do please reply off-list, and please include your beer of preference. Cheers Gareth

Does Spark host any actual IPv6-connected resources behind AS4648?
by Mark Foster 15 Nov '15

15 Nov '15

Hiya folks, An honest question... Having been told by a commercial solutions type person at Spark that IPv6 peering is only available for International Transit services - not Domestic - i'm left wondering how much IPv6 actually exists within AS4648? I am not aware of any specific examples of IPv6 connections (either 'content' or 'eyes') in the AS to use as a starting point, but it's quite disappointing to consider that any traffic between my AS and Spark's is being forced to use international transit. (The wording of the correspondence I received on the subject used the word 'currently' suggesting a possible future change on this position, but it also said 'no date for when this will be available' which suggests no great hurry either). Obviously the disappointment would be metered a little if I knew for sure there was essentially no chance of requiring such a peering link, for example if there's no other IPv6 within-or-behind AS4648 that I can't get to via other means. I assume that other NOG'rs who have 'domestic transit' or 'paid peering' with Spark have got similar ipv6 peering problems - I find it incredible that this many years beyond IPv6's initial 'push' [1], that backbone environments - those that don't necessarily have heavy ties to software or systems that may still have compatibility issues[2] - cannot be rigged for IPv6 in relatively short order. Interested in the experiences of others, on-or-offlist as preferred, in terms of Spark and IPv6, or if there's any insight as to Spark's intentions to deploy IPv6 and support it for their wholesale domestic links. Cheers Mark. [1] The oldest post on the NZ IPv6 Task Force website is dated August 2009. We've certainly had a complete technology-refresh-cycle since then, surely?! [2] Notwithstanding [1] I know there are still limitations to IPv6 offerings to customers within my organisation[3], but we are at least committed to working through these and for a large subset of product types, dual-stack is fully available. As such we are seeking to establish IPv6 peering arrangements, initially with all those that we peer with over IPv4 but obviously as openly as possible for the benefit of all parties. [3] When I say 'We' i'm talking about ICONZ, AS4770. If you peer with ICONZ (directly or via a peering exchange[4]) and would like to peer over IPv6, please do drop a note to noc(a)iconz.net and we'll happily set it up. We're already peered with the APE and WIX RR's and with a few domestic peers in addition to our transit provider(s). I should also note that i'm leaving ICONZ in the next week or so, so personal enquiries about ICONZ's position may have finite value. :-) [4] ICONZ is presently on APE and WIX and is hoping to establish a link to AKL-IX in the new year. If they share physical footprint or switch domain they're also happy to bilat or direct-ethernet if it makes sense to do so. Cheers Mark.

GPON/VDSL/ADSL vendor advice
by Mark Tees 04 Nov '15

04 Nov '15

Hi all, Looking for some advice/recommendations. We’re looking to select a GPON/VDSL/ADSL vendor for a number of new greenfield and brownfield deployments and have been considering the big 3 - ALU, Huawei and Calix. In PON land we would be delivering an “RSP” style service where each port, or a VLAN on a port can be sold to a different RSP to deliver services on. We are also delivering RF and POTS services via these units. So far we’ve found most them to be largely feature comparable and stable in terms of implementation and support. Each vendor has been keen to engage with us and work to make us as comfortable as possible with their product set. The only major differentiator on a hardware level is we’ve noted that the newer ALU chassis do not support xDSL cards, and so we would be stuck on the previous generation of chassis if we wanted to retain xDSL support, where Huawei and Calix don’t have this limitation. We do like Calix’s general view towards software programability and what they are talking about in terms of the future of SDN based networking. That said, there seems to be a number of pro’s/con’s with respect to each vendor in their own ways. Does any one have any strong opinions or recommendations why one vendor is better than another? Equally, does anyone have any brilliant success stories with any of the vendors or horror stay-away stories that we should know? -- Regards, Mark L. Tees

Whole of Domain (.nz) Web Harvest 2016
by Jay Gattuso 04 Nov '15

04 Nov '15

Hi All, It’s that time of year again. The National Library of New Zealand is in the final planning stages for the 2016 Whole of Domain web harvest. Per previous years we’ll be walking through the .nz domain pulling back a ~20Tbs snapshot of the live web. The work will be contacted out to the Internet Archive, and I’ll contact this list with the final details once we’ve finished the various planning parts. At the moment it looks like we’ll undertake the crawl around the middle of Jan, and from past experience it usually takes 3 to 4 weeks to complete. We expect to try and grab embedded large binaries (video, audio etc), but otherwise we will generally be respectful of robots.txt. We will have crawl agent string that I will inform you of, so if you have any concerns with our crawling activity we can be blocked. :( I wanted to give you early sight of the crawl, and invite any questions or thoughts from the mailing list. We would also like to acknowledge the assistance and support of dnc.org.nz and nzrs.net.nz – without their efforts we would not be able to make heritage snapshots of the live web for research use today and into the future.

Short (!) survey about internet interconnection
by Uta Meier-Hahn 21 Oct '15

21 Oct '15

Dear networkers from around the world, Internet interconnection is largely unregulated. However, in some countries, public regulation has emerged – be it through transparency rules, mandatory peering or licensing terms. Currently, we lack an overview about where regulation exists and we know little about how it affects internet connectivity on a global scale. To start filling this information gap, I have set up a short survey for network engineers, peering coordinators and network-savvy legal staffers. The goal is to crowdsource an initial overview about formal regulation of internet interconnection around the world. Please participate! It takes no more than 10 minutes and will serve the community: http://limesurvey.hiig.de/index.php/675663?lang=en <http://limesurvey.hiig.de/index.php/675663?lang=en> I will publish the results under a Creative Commons license. Also, please consider helping by forwarding the link to fellow interconnection professionals - think of your Facebook, VKontakte or LinkedIn groups, of chat channels and mailing lists. The more regional diversity, the better. Thank you! Thank you!

KFC shows that once again New Zealand needs a CSIRT. Well here's a start.
by Dean Pemberton 20 Oct '15

20 Oct '15

Hi All, The recent KFC incident has highlighted a lack of awareness of where to effectively report online security issues. A point made worse by New Zealand not having a CSIRT. At the NZITF we're working to create New Zealand’s first public facing Computer Security Incident Response Team (or CSIRT). Essentially, we have decided it's time to stop talking about creating a CSIRT and instead partner with like-minded companies to fund and incubate a small, agile team to prove the value that a public-facing CSIRT can bring to New Zealand. We have produced a short 1-pager about why the NZITF are setting up CSIRTnz and what we hope to achieve. http://nzitf.org.nz/pdf/NZITF-CSIRT-ValProp.pdf Feel free to get in touch (info(a)nzitf.org.nz) if you, or your organisation wants to know more about the initiative. In the mean time, while we get this all setup, any incidents sent to info(a)nzitf.org.nz will receive attention, and we'll look to provide co-ordination, albeit on a best efforts basis. Regards, Dean

Spark / GG & ICMP
by Jonathan Brewer 19 Oct '15

19 Oct '15

Hi Folks, Anyone know of NZ-based Global Gateway or Spark infrastructure that responds to ICMP ping requests globally? On or off-list reply fine. I've found hosts in AS4648 that respond to ping selectively - from some, but not all of the servers I'm using to collect data for my project on peering in the Pacific http://pacpeer.org/ Bizarre & frustrating things going on with this network. Same for AS4771. Failing that happy to take suggestions for Auckland based single-homed customers on AS4648 or AS4771 that are fibre connected with 1-2ms latency from provider core - and don't mind the occasional ping. I've got Atlas probes I can ping, but they're on the end of consumer tails & that mucks up the stats. Thanks, Jon

kfcdelivery.co.nz ongoing scam
by Nathan Ward 19 Oct '15

19 Oct '15

All, You might’ve seen ‘kfcdelivery.co <http://kfcdelivery.co/>.nz’ pop up on social media today. It’s a scam. If you have the ability to block this website so your users cannot reach it, please do so. If you have stuck your CC details in there, cancel your card. It is hosted through CloudFlare, don’t block the IPs, but perhaps you can filter on your DNS or something. I have reached out to the registrar for the domain to get it blocked (discount domains). If anyone has a contact there other than support@ to get it pulled ASAP, please use it - I don’t know anyone there. The logic of the site is roughly: <snip> # Validate input and set error if validation fails if(error){ "You must fill in the red fields" }else{ "Our servers are down due to heavy traffic, please try again later" } # send data to servers anyway </snip> -- Nathan Ward

Hi everyone, The APRICOT 2016 Programme Committee is responsible for the solicitation and selection of suitable presentation and tutorial content for the APRICOT 2016 conference (http://2016.apricot.net/) The APIA Board selects a new Programme Committee each year and is now seeking nominations from the community. Eligible PC candidates are those who have attended APRICOT conferences in the recent past, have broad technical knowledge of Internet operations, and have reasonable familiarity with the format of APRICOT conferences. Having constructive opinions and ideas about how the programme content might be improved is of high value too. PC members are expected to work actively to solicit content and review submissions for technical merit. The PC meets by conference call, weekly in frequency during the three months prior to each event. If you are interested in joining the PC and meet the above eligibility criteria, please send a brief note to "apiasec at apia.org". The note should include affiliation (if any) and contact details (including e-mail address), and a brief description of why you would make a good addition to the PC. PC members who are active and contribute to regular meetings and submit reviews receive complimentary registration for APRICOT 2016. The APIA Board will accept nominations received by the end of Friday 23 October, 2015, and will announce the new PC shortly thereafter. Many thanks! Mike Jager & Dean Pemberton (APRICOT 2016 PC Chairs)

Cable cut/damaged?
by Juha Saarinen 01 Oct '15

Hi NZNOG, Not sure if this qualifies as operational, but Telstra tweeted there’s a cable cut somewhere: https://twitter.com/Telstra/status/649565187687628800 Would anyone happen to know which cable it is and where it’s been cut - if that’s the case? Am told it’s causing slowdowns with Akamai, making Apple users unhappy. Thanks — Juha

Ideas pls for keynote speaker - APRICOT 2016
by Jordan Carter 21 Sep '15

21 Sep '15

Hi all We're hosting APRICOT 2016 - an Internet technical community conference - in Auckland in February. (Details at https://2016.apricot.net) NZNOG is a key supporter of the event so thank you for that, I am hoping this request is (beer) sufficiently on topic for the list.... One of the things a local host gets to do is to propose a local/national Keynote speaker for the event. Do you have suggested speakers we could put into the mix? One name that popped into my head is Steve Cotter who is shortly off to head the European research network, after running REANNZ for a few years. But this is an event aimed squarely at people like you, and so your ideas would be incredibly helpful. Grateful for your suggestions, ideally by the end of the week... thanks!

{from those archives} 10 years...??? blimey. http://list.waikato.ac.nz/pipermail/nznog/2005-June/010239.html Perhaps the way to go about it will end up being to legislate, that you'll end up having to register your "NZ" IP address allocation with the Intellectual Property Office - because they like the acronym IP too.

TICSA Amendment Bill - Long commentary is long
by Beau Murrah 17 Sep '15

17 Sep '15

Hello- A long post follows that is adapted from some questions I received yesterday. These are some of my legal academic thoughts and not legal advice. My overall assessment of this very short one page TICSA Amendment Bill is that community must put energy into this process even if the Bill itself is insufficient and likely to be voted down. If it makes it past the first step there is a chance for proposing additions and changes in the form of Supplementary Order Papers and this is something to be optimistic about and contact your MP’s about. Even if the Bill fails at the first stage, there is the risk though that unless there is obvious energy put into it the whole issue reaches a state of entropy until some unforeseeable reactive event occurs where the law will finally get replaced or repealed. The Government will likely claim a lack of energy put into the Bill as evidence the status quo is acceptable, and who knows how many years it might be till the issue comes again on the Parliamentary floor for any kind of substantive change. Is this toothless? Yes, the Bill has no legal teeth in its own right in terms of statutory offences. On a personal level I must say I also think it is weak. There is no legal duty for the Minister/Director to follow the recommendations. For this could be dismissed as ineffectual. However, the Bill would creates added statutory powers and responsibilities that creative avenues legal challenge such as a judicial review of an Agency decision. Even if such a judicial review is never actualised it can start to carry weight “in the shadow of the law”. It means the Agency can be pressed to its statutory responsibilities by some entity pointing to a legal basis for their claims. I also think there is potential for the Bill to widen existing judicial review avenues elsewhere in the legislation that were very limited, given the interaction of the TAB and the Minister/Director’s duties. Consider Clause 2 of the Bill “Any matter to be referred to the Minister requesting the Minister to exercise his or her discretion or recommend the prescribing of an additional area of specified security interest must first be referred to the Technical Advisory Board for analysis and recommendations. “ If a Minister fails to refer the matter to the TAB first with enough time and detail so the TAB can give actual considered analysis and recommendations, on its face there would be breach of the Minister’s statutory responsibilities. This would tap into well established legal common law norms about the duty of consult and what that means in practice by Ministers, and open the case to judicial review in a Court. If the issue was intrusive enough on network operators this could potentially receive remedy’s in the form of injunctions on the matter at hand and form precedent for the future. I am trying to think of an example where this would be worth it economically, or in defence of rights of a NetOp or their subscribers, its not unforeseeable. A judicial review action could potentially be taken to seek an injunction on a area of security being decided while the TAB fully considers the issue. This could enforce a lag-time for compliance to allow network operators to react and plan ahead for impending decisions by the Minister. Take for example s50 of the Act: http://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/2013/0091/latest/DLM5626115.html <http://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/2013/0091/latest/DLM5626115.html> This section is closely related to the process of the Director in identifying network security risks which is relevant to the Bill. s50 also gives a list of things the Director must consider. Failing to give consideration to a mandatory consideration is a well recognised ground of judicial review of exercises of statutory power. As you can gather from the list above in the Section, its typically aimed at an enumerated list of more or less specific items. On its own an action by an individual against a public figure for merely failing to consider mandatory considerations has only a formal/technical remedy and it would be an expensive and lengthy procedure for all involved. The Agency would then, usually, only have to correct the error in some token way - such as issuing a report saying “we have consider all the relevant matters, our opinion is unchanged” - and move forward. However, the existence of this action combined with a technical advisory board gives potential for a legal entity that can bring to light a bigger picture of systemic and formal breaches that would make great copy in the newspaper or an Ombudsman-like governmental complaint if not a court judgment. Whichever of you may decide to sit on the Board (to be honest, not an entirely desirable role) would have the ability to oversee that mandatory consideration has been given on all of the ground under S50s. The Board could start issuing recommendations that align with the statutory duties and language, and force more compliance by the Agency, if it starts pointing out where this consideration hasn’t been given. This is at least one way a TAB could be applied to put the Agency on their toes like a real watchdog is supposed to. Isn’t all this going to play out in secret anyways because NatSec? If the Agency doesn’t follow any recommendations this would be secret? One issue I am interested in is use of the term “Security Interest” in the Bill and considering how much it maps onto the definition of “Security Risk” currently in the TICSA legislation, and whether this should change. The definition of security risk in the TICSA legislation is inclusive of the concept of national security but the term national security itself is not defined. This question about whether all of the risks and all of the Agencies TICSA decisions/activities are to be legally treated as national security concerns is ultimately going to decide whether TICSA plays out before and in an open civil court as the norm or whether it will go into classified operations only where sufficient evidence is provided to the Courts to justify otherwise. I am strongly of the view this is a piece of regulation which only narrowly intersects with national security. Cloaking the daily and annual grind of bureaucracy and notification schemes and compliance in national security is a wrong approach and arguably just a very easy lawyerly way of keeping the Agency out of Court. I will be writing more on this topic and releasing it in a proper text form, and am definitely planning on submitting something TICSA-related to Kiwicon.

TICSA Amendment Bill drawn from ballot

Hello NZNOG, http://www.parliament.nz/en-nz/pb/legislation/proposed-bills/ballot/51HOOOC… <http://www.parliament.nz/en-nz/pb/legislation/proposed-bills/ballot/51HOOOC…> Clare Curran’s TICSA Amendment Bill has been drawn from the ballot. Ill be giving it a close read myself in the next day or two, would be interested in any comments/discussion off-list or on-list. A link to the Bill itself is here: http://www.parliament.nz/resource/en-nz/51HOH_MEMBILL063_1/f607b43a59cb0d7a… <http://www.parliament.nz/resource/en-nz/51HOH_MEMBILL063_1/f607b43a59cb0d7a…> My research & writing on TICSA is still ticking along- I am considering trying to submit a talk for Kiwicon but thats quite a high bar to aim for, but I plan to release the text regardless around the same time as the conference. As a brief repeat summary, the text focuses in-depth on the deeply untested/unprecedented legal concept of Good Faith which has been imported into this area. It is imperative to avoiding any liability under the Act and also crucial to any sort of pro-active action against the Agency.

Can whois registrar info be wrong?
by Richard Hector 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

Hey all, Is it technically possible for the registrar details in whois (for a .com domain) be out of date, or is the whois the canonical source of the info? If it is possible, how would I go about finding out who's really in control? Does a registrar have an interface for that? Unfortunately I'm not sure how reliable my client's own records are on this ... Cheers, Richard

Phish? Re: .NZ would like 5 minutes of your time
by Richard Hector 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

It's an email apparently from one party (NZRS), apparently sent by a second party (my registrar), via a third party (mscv.net) with a link to a fourth party (surveymonkey.com) which seems classic phishing. On the other hand it "looks quite legit". If it is legit, am I right in thinking it's a bad way to go about it? Any comments from participants? Richard
