Re: APNIC Training in New Zealand - 10 Dec 2002
by Simon Blake 08 Dec '02

08 Dec '02

Hi Folks. First up, a big thank you to Miwa, Elly and Nurani for the excellent presentation this morning in Wellington - as an APNIC newbie, I found it really helpful. Likewise two thumbs up to Bill Woodcock for the thought provoking discussion in the afternoon on the mechanics and politics of peering - those of you who haven't had a chance to listen to Bill, I suggest you buttonhole him when he's in Auckland next week, if you feed him beer he's sure to regale you with his doughnut theory of peering failure :-). Lastly, an marvelous job of overcatering by the folks at Datacom - ta muchly! Best $100 seminar I've been to in a long, long time. Keeping this vaguely operational, Bill has started the INOC-DBA system http://www.pch.net/inoc-dba/ Simplistically, it means that you crank up a Cisco 7960 phone, configure it to use Bill's server, and you get dial-an-ASN - ring an ASN, and with any luck it'll ring on the desk of somebody who might have something sensible to say about the ASN you just rang: -- "One of the benefits of this network which is most frequently cited by its users is the fact that callers are pre-screened for clue. Calls cannot enter the network from the outside PSTN. We would like to maintain that high ratio of signal to noise in order to keep the utility of the network as high as possible for its users." -- It seems to me to be a great idea, and not just because Bill has slapped a 7960 down on my desk to try it out :-). Bill is installing the phone at Citylink tomorrow (Tuesday) morning - anybody else interested in testing this while Bill is in town, grab a phone and send ASN/IP/Contact/MAC details through ASAP.

RE: Domainz spams entire .nz whois database

But surely that is at the discretion of the .nz Provider - and in this instance (and there are reasons), 2Day.com have not signed the accreditation agreement, so the customers are actually that of Domainz. There are a significant number of domain names in the Registry that we _know_ are customers of Peter Mott, although they have registered with Domainz for their domain names. We fully expect Peter to contact his customers if, no when Peter becomes a Registrar and try to move them from us. This is fair competition. I'm sure there will be many other Providers are in the same boat and will try and entice their customers (and indeed everyone else's) away from Domainz. Obviously, Domainz must try and introduce facilities to keep our customers but the new marketplace is here. People now have choice. The email distributed this morning was to name holders of domain names that are directly billed by Domainz. How can this be spam ?

I have three domains registered at present, and only received one copy of the message, to the address used on all the Technical Contacts, and some of the Admin Contacts.

The office of the NZ Domain Name Commissioner has confirmed that a timetable for processing the GEEK.NZ application has been proposed, with public consultation to take place over the Christmas period. "The application for GEEK.NZ was submitted a few months ago, but we were happy to let the Domain Name Commissioner delay the approval process until the BANK.NZ application had been dealt with," confirmed Dean Pemberton, who made the initial application. The application for GEEK.NZ was made on behalf of the community technicians and engineers who built the Internet infrastructure in New Zealand over the past twenty years, and who continue to push it forward today. Despite the changing fortunes of the Internet and telecommunications industries, the technical community responsible for keeping the Internet running smoothly remains tightly knit and well-connected. "GEEK.NZ defines a distinct community of interest, just as other second-level domains do," explains Andy Linton. "However, GEEK.NZ also provides an opportunity for deploying additional, more experimental services such as DNS Security (DNSSEC) and IPv6, which are many years away from deployment in other registries, like CO.NZ." Linton sees GEEK.NZ performing a role for DNS service which is analogous to the role the high-speed, optical research network, "Internet2", provides for ISPs. "The community which GEEK.NZ serves is technical, and is driven by the development of technology in a way that the communities served by other second-level domains are not. You couldn't experiment with DNSSEC in CO.NZ without risking the quality of service that the commercial community expects, but experimentation is a way of life for the geek community," Linton added. GEEK.NZ will provide a place in the DNS where the community of technical people in New Zealand can express itself, thrive and expand. Providing recognition to the technical community in this way will allow New Zealand to demonstrate its commitment to the people who fuel the knowledge economy, and help slow the otherwise steady procession of technical people leaving the country every year. The approval process for GEEK.NZ includes a period for public consultation, which is followed by a vote conducted over the internet. Pemberton expects the NZ Domain Name Commissioner to publish the timetable for consultation this week.

Info - Connection Speeds Outside Auckland
by Zuricka Azavedo 30 Nov '02

30 Nov '02

Hi All I am studying for my masters at AIS St. Helens. My research focuses on E-Commerce proliferation in the Wine Industry. Most companies that I have spoken with are outside Auckland and seem to suggest that the Internet connection speeds available to them are too slow to even effectively browse the Internet let alone host E-Commerce websites. Is it true that there are absolutely no connectivity issues anywhere in New Zealand, or is it Vice Versa ? Is it that higher speed telco circuits outside Auckland and Wellington are available but not affordable to most Small Businesses Can anyone please shed some light on this issue ? Also my research guide suggests that perhaps the vision of NZ being totally online and E-Commerce driven is being fuelled only by technical people who are less than 5% on the population. Is this true ? Thankyou in advance to everyone on this list Cheers Zuricka Azavedo

AS9736/SRS routing (was Re: Who cut off the piece of string?)

FWIW, the primary site for the SRS systems is currently living outside the AS9736 address space (the secondary site is in a /24 inside that space). The primary site is in a long prefix CIDR block of ex-Paradise TelstraClear address space, which is also advertised into WIX (but not APE) as a long-prefix CIDR block, and that should help to ensure availabilty at least within NZ in the face of some outages, but otherwise it's not multihomed. (Although given a number of sites don't accept routes from WIX and/or don't accept prefixes that long, it may not help _that_ much. That said, I believe the current hosts of the SRS primary site are planning a renumbering into a shorter prefix CIDR block in the next month or two, which may help.) Given that the SRS is accessed through "online queries" there's probably going to be somewhat more need for AS9736 to be multi-homed if the primary site is moved into that space as well at some point. (AFAIK there'll be less reliance on the "email template" approach once the SRS opens up to competition in early December.) Ewen PS: The APNIC info for AS9736 looks to be somewhat out of date these days, which is interesting because I had thought at least some of the NZ DNS Politics were going to lead to it being updated.... - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
