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:AS9503 descr: advertised to AS9560 by FX Networks - AS9503 members: 131.203.0.0/16^16-29, 161.29.0.0/16^16-29, 161.65.0.0/16^16-29, 202.53.176.0/20^20-29, 202.174.160.0/20^20-29, 202.191.32.0/20^20-29, 202.46.176.0/21^21-29, 202.50.200.0/21^21-29, 202.78.240.0/21^21-29, 203.190.208.0/21^21-29, 202.50.52.0/22^22-29, 202.50.196.0/22^22-29, 202.59.4.0/22^22-29, 202.37.86.0/23^23-29, 202.49.80.0/23^23-29, 202.124.106.0/23^23-29, 192.88.85.0/24^24-29, 192.133.31.0/24^24-29, 202.20.97.0/24^24-29, 202.27.208.0/24^24-29, 202.36.119.0/24^24-29, 202.36.183.0/24^24-29, 202.36.226.0/24^24-29, 202.46.190.0/24^24-29, 202.50.247.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: noc-minor(a)fx.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060629 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS9503 descr: advertised to AS9560 by FX Networks - AS9503 members: 131.203.0.0/16^16-29, 161.29.0.0/16^16-29, 161.65.0.0/16^16-29, 202.53.176.0/20^20-29, 202.174.160.0/20^20-29, 202.191.32.0/20^20-29, 210.48.160.0/20^20-29, 202.46.176.0/21^21-29, 202.50.200.0/21^21-29, 202.78.240.0/21^21-29, 203.190.208.0/21^21-29, 202.50.52.0/22^22-29, 202.50.196.0/22^22-29, 202.59.4.0/22^22-29, 202.37.86.0/23^23-29, 202.49.80.0/23^23-29, 202.124.106.0/23^23-29, 192.88.85.0/24^24-29, 192.133.31.0/24^24-29, 202.20.97.0/24^24-29, 202.27.208.0/24^24-29, 202.36.119.0/24^24-29, 202.36.183.0/24^24-29, 202.36.226.0/24^24-29, 202.46.190.0/24^24-29, 202.50.247.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: noc-minor(a)fx.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060725 source: NZRR

Re: [nznog] SMTP Server Callbacks, the Devil or a Godsend?
by Ewen McNeill 24 Jul '06

24 Jul '06

In message <040c01c6af00$812193c0$de0dea3c(a)office.orcon.net.nz>, "Craig Whitmore" writes: >I have been looking into callbacks lately for SMTP (to reduce spam) and have >noticed a few things with a number of large nz sites who send out email. This is the scheme where upon receiving an inbound MAIL FROM:/RCPT TO: the mail server then connects back to the MX for the claimed domain and issues a MAIL FROM:/RCPT TO: as if it were going to send a reply? I'm pretty wary of such schemes because of the potential for looping (eg, A connects to B, B connects to A to verify, A connects to B to verify, ...), and because the "callback" action looks pretty much like an address verification probe for, eg, a spam list. (Once upon a time SMTP had a VRFY action which could be used to confirm addresses, but pretty much everyone turns that off due to abuse.) Aside from that some way of being sure the originator is a "real" address, preferably without requiring a separate connection, is a nice idea. One scheme I've seen a fairly large mail source (Yahoo? AOL? I forget) was to test for postmaster(a)domain instead, on the basis that the address should exist and at least they'd have somewhere to send reports of problems. That seems marginally less bad than trying the originator of the message. >A number of sites send from email addresses which don't exist. Including some newsletter mailouts that I'm aware of. Your (Craig's) list is by no means complete. Personally I'd be reasonable keen to see such mail refused as a general industry policy. Because they inevitably seem to send out (regularly) to large numbers of addresses which ceased to exist a long time ago, or never existed (hotmale.com, anyone?). The ones with valid sender addresses which have, eg, full mailboxse are only marginally less annoying. Especially given that automatic bounce processing systems have existed for a long time. I think using some sort of sender address verification scheme and then papering over it with a whitelist to allow those that fail to still send mail rather misses the point. But then I also think that email is virtually a lost cause these days, at least in the "anyone can forge anything" SMTP form. Ewen

SPF record Errors
by Craig Whitmore 23 Jul '06

23 Jul '06

I have compiled a list of Domains which have "Broken SPF Records". These are domains which have SPF records which are invalid due to a number of reasons (explained on the website). This is not a complete record, but a large number of them. The RFC (RFC 4408) says if a SPF record is invalid (and a Mail Server is properly checking for them) then it is valid to reject email from that Domain completely (something which most people won't want on a Domain) Please note there is a LOT of domains listed which have "v=spf2.0 ... etc" which isn't a SPF nor Sender-ID record, and people should fix them up or delete them as they do nothing. Please See: http://spam.co.nz/spf/broken/. There is a number of .nz and NZ related Domains on this list so if you have any relationship with them, you might want to get them fixed. More and More large companies in NZ have correct SPF records (Xtra,Trademe,ICONZ,Datacom) Thanks Craig Whitmore http://www.spam.co.nz

WDANZ and Brendan Battles
by Justin Cook 20 Jul '06

20 Jul '06

Hello everyone. Apologies for interrupting your usual off-topic banter, but I'd like to take a moment to talk about something I experienced today. I've promised Dennis from the WDANZ that I would share this experience with other people in the industry. Today the noted spammer Brendan Battles called, despite being asked in the past not to contact me. Brendan was trying to solicit membership to the WDANZ. Again. This is the fourth call I've had from them about it, and it's getting old. After explaining to Brendan that since finding out it was a for-profit organisation rather than a community that I wasn't interested, he proceeded to tell me in an obnoxious tone that he "didn't like my attitude". I told him what I thought of his sales approach and rung off. A few minutes later he called again to blow me a torrent of abuse and I was forced to reiterate my desire not to be contacted. Boy Brendan, your cold-calling is pretty hot. Although I can't confirm the veracity of what the WDANZ is trying to provide to our industry I can only start to guess how ineffective this marketing campaign will be with the rest of you. Unfortunately I've been unable to finger a single service I want from the WDANZ as their offerings seem quite slim, it would appear that their approach is one where the marketing effort outstrips the services delivered. Very disappointing. Also if anyone else has experienced out-of-the-blue abusive phone calls from Brendan Battles please feel free to email me and let off some steam. God knows we can probably have a good laugh.

Sorry guys, I couldn't resist this... http://networkstatus.telstraclear.co.nz Throws up an error... For a split second I see the real screen behind it with stuff in yellw (not so good), but yes, the Telstraclear status website is borked... Borked in a funny way too... Since I'm sure their phone lines will be clogged (They "experience heavy call volumes" even when nothing's wrong) can anyone here shed some lilght on the issue please? Cheers - N.

121.72.0.0/15 - outdated bogon lists
by David Robb 20 Jul '06

20 Jul '06

TelstraClear has recently been allocated 121.72.0.0/15 by APNIC. I'm aware that this range used to be covered by some bogon filters, so can I ask that people please check their bogon lists are up to date, or better yet make use of the BGP fed bogon list from the nice folks at cymru. Thanks, David

Generally sitting in a variety of in-box's around the office which typically creates an information management system that has a lot of holes and doesn't allow for email supervision and overview. If this sounds at all familiar please take the time to read about CATMail. Established in Auckland, CATMail specialise in providing email solutions for advertisers nationwide. We see advertising as the key to any successful business and have put ourselves in a position to help the advertising industry help themselves. What does CATMail do? * It stores emails to job or customer files * It interfaces with Microsoft OUTLOOK * It shares emails across a network by job and date range * It creates email schedules by job and date range * It allows you to find any email in seconds * It automatically creates address books for each job or customer * The share file resides on the shared drive, so backups are simpler * It stores email in a readable format outside of Outlook * Email content and properties are not editable giving integrity to the content * It gives your staff tools to do their job more efficiently Why do I need CATMail? If your company is customer or job focused and use email as a traceable means of communication, it will open up new opportunities to improve team efficiency and management of email archives. Is it difficult to use CATMail? Its interface was designed to follow common Windows navigation habits, allowing a natural feel when using it. The simplistic design limits tasks to a matter of clicks. How Does CATMail Work? CATMail seamlessly integrates into Microsoft OUTLOOK. From a supplementary button embedded into the dashboard of OUTLOOK, individual users are offered a pull-down menu of active company jobs or customer files. Users simply select the relative job or customer file, click to confirm, and the email and its attachment are sent off for indexing and storage into the company's job directory and the CATMail database system. You now have the company email system working in the company's interest. All business emails (and their valuable email addresses) are now embedded into the CATMail database and can be accessed by all authorised staff. Please visit www.catmail.co.nz <http://www.catmail.co.nz/> to find out more information or ring (09) 574-5735 to organise a demo.

I believe that Juniper users would be more likely to detect this issue first, since the default arp cache timeout on a Juniper is 20 minutes, as opposed to 240 minutes (4 hours) on a Cisco

I see; I didn't read your initial message properly - sorry for the mistake. If I recall correctly, some earlier versions of BSD would run into problems if a host received more than one response to an ARP who-has that it had issued. I know that FreeBSD at least was at some point vulnerable to ARP cache poisoning as well; this was a few years ago now. The fix for this particular problem utilized unicast ARP. There is possibly some link here; Junos is based on BSD. I can't find any further reference to this anywhere though. There are possibly some BSD-specific ways of tuning the ARP implementation on the Junipers, but if so it'd no doubt require low-level fiddling. All I can say is that we didn't notice any problems at the time; so I'm not going to play with my production routers too much :) If I do find out any more information I'll let you know; I'm quite interested in finding out myself, now. Cheers, Thomas

As far as I know, proxy-arp is disabled under junos by default. Our peering at APE is done with M-series kit, and we didn't notice any issues. http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/junos/junos75/swconfig75-networ k-interfaces/html/interfaces-ethernet-config40.html This is for 7.5 code, which is fairly newish - it's possible there are issues when using older versions. On the E-series it's enabled by default: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/erx/junose72/swcmdref-a-m/html/ i-commands204.html Cheers, Thomas > > Hi all. > > On Fri, Jul 14, 2006 at 07:56:44AM +1200, Gordon Smith said: > > > Would someone like to comment on what's happening with the APE route > > reflectors?

Notification of NZRR Database changes

13 Jul '06

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: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS24347 descr: Route set advertised to AS9439 by Intergen - AS24347 members: 202.126.80.0/21^21-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: dwayne.bace(a)intergen.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20050304 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS24347 descr: advertised to AS9439 by Intergen Limited - AS24347 members: 202.46.160.0/20^20-29, 202.126.80.0/21^21-29, 202.49.144.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: dwayne.bace(a)intergen.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060714 source: NZRR

Spectrum Allocations for Broadband Wireless Access
by Jonathan Brewer 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

Hi Folks, Last week our friends at the Ministry of Economic Development released a discussion paper on spectrum for broadband wireless. http://www.rsm.govt.nz/spp/bwa/discussion/index.html We'd like to see as many comments on this paper submitted to the MED as there are members of the ISP community. Our primary agenda is getting "mandatory deployment of services" attached to any future management rights and area licenses, so we don't see large players buying up huge blocks of spectrum and sitting on them. This has damaged the environment in New Zealand in the past, and needs to be stopped. "Managed Park" and "Light Licensing" are new ideas (to New Zealand) in the paper also very worthy of our consideration. Responses to this paper are due 4th August 2006, so please have a look now. If there is interest from the community, we would be willing to host a discussion in Wellington on these issues on Thursday, 27th July.

APRICOT 2007 Call for Papers
by Jonny Martin 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi All. The APRICOT 2007 call for papers is now open, as per the following. Historically there has been a disproportionally small number of NZ attendees at these conferences so I encourage you all to have look at submitting a proposal and/or attending. Cheers, Jonny Martin APRICOT Program Committee --- Asia Pacific Regional Internet Conference on Operational Technologies (APRICOT) Bali, Indonesia 21st Feb - 2nd March 2007 http://www.2007.apricot.net Call for Papers The APRICOT 2007 Program Committee is now seeking contributors to the program. This is the main call for Presentations & Tutorials before the final program is fixed. We would like to give people the opportunity to submit their proposals early and to encourage people in the Asia Pacific region who have not previously presented their work to do so. We are looking for people who would like to: * Offer a technical tutorial on an appropriate topic; and/or * Participate in the technical conference sessions as a speaker; and/or * Convene and chair a Birds of a Feather (BOF) session. CONFERENCE MILESTONES --------------------- Call for Papers Opens: 1 July 2006 Deadline for Speaker Submissions: 30 October 2006 First Draft Program Published: 15 November 2006 Final Program Published: 15 January 2007 PROGRAM MATERIAL ---------------- APRICOT 2007 will be arranged into six operational streams, each of which will contain a number of conference tracks and related tutorials. This streamed approach is designed to foster operational communities within the Asia Pacific region. Each stream will take place in the same area providing opportunity for people do further discuss and network with peers. Streams for APRICOT 2007 are: 1. Routing Operations IPv4 and IPv6 Routing, APNIC Routing and IPv6 Technical SIG, MPLS, Backbone operations. 2. Services Operations DNS, VOIP, ENUM, IDN, IDC, content and other services, APNIC DNS SIG. 3. Security Operations NSP-Sec, DDoS, Security Operations, Anti-SPAM, Anti-Malware. 4. Internet Provider Relationships IXP Operations, Peering, APNIC IX SIG. 5. Access Technologies Wireless, WiMax, Metro Ethernet, DSL, Broadband access aggregation. 6. APNIC Stream APNIC's NIR, Database, Policy SIGs. TUTORIALS Tutorials are full-day workshops which focus on a particular subject in-depth. They may be presented by a single Instructor, or a team of instructors working together. Tutorial Instructors are encouraged to also sign up to be a Speaker in the Technical Conference Program as well. You can sign up to give a tutorial and/or conference session presentation by following the instructions at the end of this message for signing up as a speaker or instructor. Tutorial topics which have successful in the past, or have been requested for this year are: - Network security, IPSec, Auditing/Forensics, DDoS Mitigation, VoIP Security - Address planning, conservation, responsibility and migration to IPv6 - High performance IP backbone routing and management - BGP MultiHoming - MPLS - IPv6 implementation - Network planning, management and traffic engineering - Internet exchanges, construction, peering and collocation - Operations, NOC, Helpdesk and other support aspects - BIND, DNSSEC, Split Horizon DNS, and Reverse and multilingual DNS - Broadband first/last mile access technologies - Mobile and wireless technologies - Content, Applications, streaming and multimedia infrastructure - VoIP, Unified messaging, scaling e-mail infrastructure, Asterisk, etc. - Hosted Essential Services (mail, DNS, etc), Server scaling, Open source - Quantitative Analysis for Internet Public Policy The program committee will consider proposals for tutorials in any of these areas, and also in new areas. There will be two days of Tutorials. Tutorials last 1/2 day or a full day and can cater to beginner through to advanced audiences. Tutorial days are typically split into four 1.5 hour sessions. If you have an idea for a tutorial subject that is not listed, please feel free to submit it to us. TECHNICAL CONFERENCE SESSIONS The Main Conference Program for 2006 will be made up of two days, with three streams each day. In addition there will be a stream focused on local (Indonesian) internet issues. Each stream will consist of four 1.5 hour sessions, with each having three or four presentations. This allows 20-30mins per presenter. Sessions are chaired by persons of appropriate expertise in the subject matter of the session and will include ample time for questions from the audience. Successful presentations from past APRICOTs have covered topics relevant to current operational deployments or new technologies not yet in wide deployment. Proposals for conference presentations are invited for topics fitting into the six streams outlined above. If you would like to give a presentation at one or more of the sessions, follow the instructions at the end of this message for signing up as a speaker or instructor. CFP SUBMISSION -------------- When considering a presentation or tutorial, remember that the APRICOT audience is mainly comprised of technical network operators and engineers with a wide range of experience levels from beginners to multi-year experience. There is a strong orientation to offer core skills and basic knowledge in the tutorials and to address issues relevant to the day-to-day operations of ISPs and network operators over the next 12 - 18 months in the conference sessions. The deadline for submissions is 30 October, 2006. Draft slides for both tutorials and conference sessions MUST be provided with CfP submissions. Final slides are to be provided by 15 January, 2007. While the majority of speaking slots will be submitted by 30 October 2006, a limited number of slots may be available for presentations that are exceptionally timely, important, or of critical operational importance. IMPORTANT NOTE -------------- APRICOT is a TECHNICAL conference so marketing and commercial content is not allowed within the program. The program committee is charged with maintaining the technical standard of APRICOT, and will therefore not accept inappropriate materials. It is expected that the presenter be a technical person and not a sales or marketing person. The audience is extremely technical and expects that the speakers are themselves very knowledgeable. All sessions provide time for questions, so presenters should expect technical questions and be prepared to deliver insightful and technically deep responses. FUNDING AND SUPPORT ------------------- APRICOT is a not-for-profit event that tries to keep the cost to attendees low so we are unable to pay the travel costs of speakers. Speakers from developing countries may be eligible for the APRICOT Fellowship Program which provides basic assistance to successful fellows to cover local living and registration expenses associated with attending the conference. Of course, Tutorial instructors will not have to pay any registration fee to attend the conference or tutorials, and Conference Speakers do not have to pay for registration to the Technical Conference. SIGNING UP AS A SPEAKER, INSTRUCTOR OR BOF Convener If you would like to be considered as a tutorial instructor, session speaker, or a convener of a BOF, please fillin the form at http:// submission.apricot.net/ More information on the conference is available at http:/www.2007.apricot.net Thanks, APRICOT Program Committee program(a)apricot.net
