Incident Reporting
by Jonathan Brewer 21 Aug '07

21 Aug '07

Hi Folks, Occasionally things go wrong, resulting in daytime outages for end users. In the aftermath, some of the service providers we work with are very thorough, providing standard reports with a reasonable amount of technical detail. Others keep quiet, or try to pass the blame to their suppliers. I'm interested in hearing about what ISPs are doing for incident reporting - in general or specific, on or off-list. If I get a fair amount of replies, I'll send some stastics back to the list. Cheers, Jon

Kiwicon 2k7 - Registration Open, First round of speakers announced
by Adam Boileau 21 Aug '07

21 Aug '07

Hi NZNOG, Preparations for Kiwicon 2k7 - New Zealand's first Hacker Con, 17-18 Nov, Wellington - are well under way. Media coverage is brewing[1] and things are shaping up to be a really good event. At this time, the Kiwicon Team is pleased to announce the first round of presentations[2], which include topics (hopefully) of interest to an NZNOGgy sort of crowd. So, come along and drink a beer with the hackers, "security consultants" and researchers who use, abuse and pwn your networks ;) If you'd like to present, the CFP[3] is still open, but spaces are going fast. Registration is now available[4], and we'd encourage you to do so to help with our planning. See y'all then. -- Regards, Adam on behalf of the Kiwicon Team [1] http://www.smh.com.au/news/security/hackers-do-the-haka/2007/08/20/11874621… [2] https://kiwicon.org/presentations [3] https://kiwicon.org/ [4] https://kiwicon.org/register

Oh indeed it does.. Appears to take the current time every time you reload the page - although might have been nice to have it in the current time zone - people will think they are reading old news! _____ From: Richard Dingwall [mailto:rdingwall(a)gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2007 2:10 PM To: Craig Spiers Subject: Re: [nznog] Yahoo Xtra's Website..

Orcon's Nameservers Changes from the 21th of August
by Craig Whitmore 15 Aug '07

15 Aug '07

Hi NZNOGers On the morning of 21th of this month Orcon will disable recursive name server lookups from non-Orcon IP Ranges. This will mean that people outside our network using our name servers will not be able to look up DNS for any domain which we are not authorative for. This should not cause any issues at all unless people have hardcoded our name servers (60.234.1.1/60.234.2.2 or 210.55.12.1/210.55.12.2) into their machines and are not on our network. Thanks Craig Whitmore Systems Administrator Orcon Internet.

Can you help me

Operators, I've been asked by our friends at TVNZ to assist with a minor issue. For various reasons some folks at TVC would appreciate it if you could flush the information you have in your recursive/caching nameservers for the zone images.tvnz.co.nz That would help clear up some TTL badness. cheers jamie

Sysadmin Miniconf at NZNOG 08
by Simon Lyall 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

A reminder that we are looking for talks for the Sysadmin Miniconf at NZNOG 2008 in January ( see http://nznog.miniconf.org/ ) . Last year we had quite a good turnout and talks presented ( http://nznog.miniconf.org/2007.html ) We are really keen to get a good programme for 2008. As such we would be very interested in suggestions both from potential speakers and also from people who might want to hear about particular topics or technologies . On thing we are doing this year is encouraging people to give a talk about their site, what technologies, hardware, software, methods, policies they may use etc. The idea is to give others an idea about what other people use in the "real world" . It could be wide ranging or just about one thing like how you handle logs or documentation. We'd really like to encourage people to give these sort of talks. Anyway if you have an idea either for yourself or someone else (or suggestions on who we could approach) then please send an email to the team at talks08 @ nznog.miniconf.org Full details on the website: http://nznog.miniconf.org/ -- Simon Lyall | Very Busy | Web: http://www.darkmere.gen.nz/ "To stay awake all night adds a day to your life" - Stilgar | eMT.

global-gateway.net.nz and possible MTU problems
by Scott Howard 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

We've got a client in Thailand who is having having trouble with traffic from a number of sites - all of which go through global-gateway.net.nz. Based on the symptoms I'm guessing it may be an MTU issue (along with the other end blocking ICMP) - anyone seen this with global-gateway.net.nz before? If anyone here is responsible for that network I'd appreciate it if you could contact me off-list. Thanks, Scott.

29 Peering Points
by Philip D'Ath 02 Aug '07

02 Aug '07

Just thinking about all these Telecom peering points. Assuming that Telecom allocate IP addresses as they are requested by incoming broadband connections, as opposed to by geographic peering point, then there will be no way to summarise addresses at these peering points. So this will imply that those ISP which do peer at these points will have to listen to a good 100k odd /32 announcements (at the larger peering points). I could easily see the routing table having to contain 200k to 300k additional /32 routes if you want to allow least cost routing to work its best. If there are redundant paths then this could increase a lot more. Then consider the case when a /32 appears to be from Dunedin, and then the next second it appears to be from Wellington (because the Dunedin broadband user lost their session, and a new Wellington use just acquired their dynamic IP address). Then consider all the places these routes could be redistributed to within different ISPs, and potentially outside of their own AS. Then consider [non telecom] peering points that only accept a /24 or bigger. Not that anything is wrong with asymmetric routing, but doing it almost to the customer edge is going to make solving connectivity issues much more difficult (I can access this web site, but not that web site ...). I can see a lot of potential for route flapping, and for frequent routing updates to occur. I can also see the potential for short term route loops occurring. I see route stability issues arising in NZ's future, or have I missed something?

Netlantis - Routing Table Geoanalysis
by Philippe Bourcier 29 Jul '07

29 Jul '07

Hi, Sorry for the cross-post. The Netlantis team (Pascal Gloor and me) is pleased to announce a new BGP routing tables visualization project. This project is called Routing Table Geoanalysis and aims at representing various statistics based on the analysis of a BGP routing table. The result of this analysis is a poster-size computer-generated image (12+ Megapixels) which you can easily print. Project's URL : http://rtg.netlantis.org/ The statistics for each routing table we analyse are : - The distribution across continents (or more precisely geo-political areas) of the total number of IP addresses announced - The number of IP addresses announced for 100 inhabitants of these areas - The number of routes, IP addresses and the average number of IP addresses per route - The main upstream AS's share in the routing table (in number of IP) and the geographic distribution of IP addresses announced through or by them - The distribution of AS path length by continent - The prefix size distribution The geo-political areas (I'm abusively calling continents) used for the statistics are : Africa, Asia, Central America, Europe, Middle-East, North America, Oceania and South America. When it's relevant, I also use the area World which is simply a way to display the average statistics for the whole routing table. The posters (and statistics) will be automatically updated every month. English not being my native language, I'll be happy if some people can help me fix or improve my wording and explanations so they can be better understood, especially on this page: http://rtg.netlantis.org/?info=rtg I'm thinking about adding a page on which you could automatically upload (via curl) your clogin -c "term len 0\rsh ip bgp" every month so that any AS could also be listed without the need to peer anywhere... tell me if you are interested by this feature. Thanks to routeviews for providing the routing tables and to our sponsors : IP-MAN, OVH and MaxMind. ps: If you want to sponsor Netlantis, we found a piece of hardware which might help us return in a short time to production, the thing is a DDRAM-based hard-disk (more details on my blog), contact me in private if you can help us get one. Sincerely, Philippe Bourcier web : http://sysctl.org/ blog : http://netlantis.blogspot.com
