Snapchat question

Hi all, we have had some users say they intermittently can't use this application. After downloading this app (and deciding it should go into the why the hell was that ever invented pile) it seems a bit difficult to fault find any issues. Does anyone know how this thing communicates ? Is it normally intermitttant ? Thanks all

Heartbleed OpenSSL Vulnerability
by Dean Pemberton 10 Apr '14

10 Apr '14

Hi All, NZITF (in conjunction with InternetNZ) have been endeavouring to raise awareness about this issue. We have compiled some information on our website, which may be of use to you and/or your clients. Please feel free to share this link as widely as you see fit. http://www.nzitf.org.nz/news.html The NZITF is treating this as an ongoing security issue with significant implications. As a result we are intending to monitor this situation and update our advice as required. We have tree basic messages for website owners: 1. Establish if your site's servers are vulnerable. 2. Patch the vulnerable servers. 3. Revoke/reissue keys and certificates. If you are vulnerable it is imperative that you do steps 2 AND 3. Not one, but both. You should also be encouraged to discuss this very important issue with your regular security consultants. If you have feedback or information please feel free to contact me so we can include it in the advice on the website. Regards, Dean

Those (who were) running a vulnerable OpenSSL on FreeBSD may wish to take that into account in their assessment :-) The main thing which is certain is that it's going to be a well studied/probed bug.

The exploit has been rumoured for some time. Does it matter who the primary actors are. They have all the private keys by now and g's/s-view/wifi/scan has the other half; so that deals with the white-hats. All historical data dumps can be retrospectively analysed at any time for eternity at ones leisure. As for the code which is in the wild I enclose a graph of 3 hours traffic from the http://filippo.io/Heartbleed/# site which is using something like 31 machines showing ~2000 sites being tested every minute, ~360,000 over 3hours and that is from a public site; an unknown% will be blackhats. This is catastrophic and you should believe it's not only our guys that have it but every other *worth their salt. InternetNZ almost became a CA in ~2004. We could have fixed this hole now for .nz with a working revocation system. Then INZ had a new team on board and it was .... The ironical blowback is that our "own" might be just as threatened by this. We just have to get on and deal with this as a priority tomorrow and for the next decade.

Not looking for accurate numbers, just roughly where on the scale of, "this is possible but no reports of actual use" to "all the black hats have been doing this for years so you're screwed unless you re-issue and revoke your certs" the exploit lies. Also, last time I worried about this, certificate revocation was, uh, largely unimplemented. That was a while ago. How well does it work now?

ICONZ-Webvisions (NZ) to cease operating externally-reachable NTP servers
by Mark Foster 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hiya folks - again... ! :-) ICONZ-Webvisions (the entity formerly known simply as ICONZ in NZ) are making changes to their NTP server arrangements on the evening morning of 10 April (so, overnight tomorrow night). The details of the changes being made can be viewed at: http://iconz-webvisions.com/en/support/outages/new-zealand In short, if you have been using 'ntp.iconz.net' or 'ntp.iconz.co.nz' by DNS name, you'll have already seen a change; this now is CNAME'd to s2.ntp.net.nz (which happens to sit in our DC)[1]. Anyone who has been using any of our (very long lived) NTP servers by IP address, these IP's will stop responding to NTP queries from outside of our network, in the wee hours of 10 April. Much like the DNS changes recently made, this is most likely to be noticed by people who've been using these IP's for historical or habitual reasons. Customers with concerns about this change are invited to contact our Customer Care team on 0800 843 638 or via support.nz(a)iconz-webvisions.com<mailto:support.nz(a)iconz-webvisions.com>. Non-customers, should probably change their NTP timesource to a publically available resource; I do very much value and recommend the services offered by NZRS, with details at www.ntp.net.nz<http://www.ntp.net.nz>. Regards Mark. [1] This was done in conjunction with NZRS and mainly as an 'interim' measure. Those DNS records may be removed completely at some stage in the future. Anyone using those hostnames should move to using services such as those offered by NZRS, and bypass our DNS entries completely, as soon as possible. -- Mark Foster Technical Services Manager - Australia & New Zealand [iconz-webvisions-logo-png] www.iconz-webvisions.com<http://www.iconz-webvisions.com/> ICONZ-Webvisions, ICONZ House, 60 Airedale Street, Auckland 1010, New Zealand

Hi List After Mark's announcement about removal of Iconz public ntp I thought I should check my ntpd configs. Can anyone from Vodafone give an update on tk[1-4].ihug.co.nz? After many mergers and acquisitions it occurs to me that perhaps these could be dusty machines under someone's desk that could disappear one day without announcement? Any official comment? Is there an official webpage about them? Regards, Joel van Velden

Software Defined Networking (SDN) Presentation
by Jay Best 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hey is anyone else going to this? I haven't seen many of you guys from NZNOG in ages, so would be good to catchup for old times sake! Cheers, J *Software Defined Networking (SDN) Presentation* Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development and Massey University invite you to an informative and engaging presentation by world leading New Zealand expert Mr. Josh Bailey from Google around SDN research in New Zealand and beyond. SDN has been generating a lot of press in the network industry and research worlds. While a community has arisen to energetically debate what SDN is? There are concrete research efforts and deployed systems exploring the implications of separating control and data planes. These include Google's B4 network (which connects Google data centers together) and uses OpenFlow and CityLink's efforts in New Zealand to produce an SDN controlled Internet exchange. This presentation will describe some recent research both here in NZ and in the US, including work at REANNZ and Victoria University on building and deploying an open source SDN controller and experiments including RPKI. Date: Monday, 14th April 2014 Time: 4.30pm - 6.30pm Venue: Room OR 4, Building 102 Massey Albany Campus Gate 4 Eastbourne Road, Old Albany Highway. Cost: Complimentary RSVP: Shona Alo (s.alo(a)massey.ac.nz) if you would like to attend

Bitstream 3a DHCP manipulation
by Dave Mill 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hi all I posted a few weeks ago about MAC limits on Bitstream 3a connections. This is related to that. This is a UFF Bitstream 3a connection. I've discovered that a customer's only complaint with a Bitstream 3a connection from us is that DHCP doesn't work over this. I've obtained some pcaps from both ends and I can see the following changes occurring to a DHCP Request: 1) The transaction ID is changed 2) Option 82 is added. More specifically, sub-option 1 Agent Circuit ID is present and has a valid length. sub-option 2 Agent Remote ID is present, has a length of 0 and no content which wireshark doesn't seem to like much. I've had a brief read of RFC3046 and I can't really tell if its valid to have a sub-option with a length of 0 or not. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3046#page-8 I never see any DHCP ACKs coming back from the customer's DHCP server. I've had a read of some of UFF's Bitstream3a docs and can't see any mention of DHCP. I can see in one of our initial requests we had to fill out we can choose to have DHCP Relay Agent Functionality but this seems to be related to Bitstream2 only and also this defaults to be disabled. I don't know what DHCP server the customer is using right now but I hope to find this out soon. Questions for anyone with more experience in this than myself: -Can changing the DHCP Request transaction ID cause issues? -Has anyone come across DHCP servers not liking option 82 being set, or not liking sub-option 2 having a 0 length? -Has anyone successfully used DHCP across a Bitstream3a connection? How about a UFF Bitstream3a connection? -Am I missing anything obvious? Obviously I might end up talking to UFF over this but I just want to see what others on the list know before doing so. Again, I don't really want to debate the wisdom of plugging two LANs in over a Bitstream3a connection. Cheers Dave

OM4 MMF
by Jed Laundry 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

Hi folks, Excuse my ignorance, I try to avoid orange/aqua cables... We recently had a rack of servers + SAN installed with 8Gb FC, and long story short, the vendor will only supply & install 5m OM4 cables. *grumble grumble FCoE grumble 2m patch grumble* AFAICT, OM4 is to OM3 what G.657A2 is to G.652 - completely interchangeable, especially for such a short run, just don't expect to wrap it around a pencil. And so I can swap out these stupidly long cables with properly measured OM3. Is this sensible? Thanks, Jed. Sent from a small screen.

DNSSEC in .au
by Adam King 26 Mar '14

26 Mar '14

auDA has announced it will be introducing DNSSEC into the .au domain space in an experimental capacity. Deployment on production servers will commence during April and will be trialled for 4 months. The .au DS records will_not be added to the root zone during this period. Operators should_not create or implement trust anchors for .au in their production environments during this experimental phase. A mailing list has been created for all future announcements related to DNSSEC in .au, if you wish to subscribe to this mailing list please visit http://www.lists.auda.org.au/mailman/listinfo/dnssec-announce For further information about the implementation of DNSSEC in .au please see http://www.auda.org.au/industry-information/au-domains/dnssec/.

The tier-1 CDNs all offer more than enough filtering to do very decent geo-fencing. So its not hard to limit to "NZ-only" or "everywhere but not nz". Sometimes we use that as the second line of defence. Rights agreements often require 2 levels or more.

RPKI and ROA
by Bill Walker 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

Hi All, Hoping someone can help. I am in the middle of a project to build 4 PoP's in Chicago, London, Sydney and Mumbai. As part of this I have been given the role of creating all the necessary Route objects etc. Our address space is from ARIN, but our ASN's are from RIPE, APNIC & ARIN. I have created as-set, aut-num and route objects in RADb to enable us to manage them from a single point. However I would like to setup ROA records for these route objects. I have setup RPKI with ARIN and created our first ROA object. Onto my question, am I likely to have operational issues if the route objects are in RADb and the ROA with ARIN? TIA, Bill

Google DNS 8.8.8.8/32
by Neil Fenemor 17 Mar '14

17 Mar '14

It seems 8.8.8.8/32 was hijacked yesterday for 22 minutes yesterday, affecting networks in Brazil and Venezuela. https://twitter.com/bgpmon/status/445266642616868864/photo/1 So about that RPKI thing…having a quick look (via whois.bgpmon.net) it seems Google does not have an ROA for 8.8.8.0/24. Yet another reason friends should not let friends use Google’s recursive resolvers. Perhaps their RIR doesn’t make it as easy as APNIC does to create ROA objects.

News: US to give up control of Internet administration
by Skeeve Stevens 16 Mar '14

16 Mar '14

Hi all, A very important announcement by NTIA/DoC/ICANN regarding the control of the Internet. This is an article from todays Commsday that very well explains the current situation. ...Skeeve -- *Commsday* - 17th March 2014 - www.commsday.com *US to give up control of Internet administration* The United States government says it will cede the Department of Commerce's legal authority over global Internet governance, but on condition that it approves of the system which replaces it. Late Friday afternoon, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, under the DoC, said it wanted Internet domain governance to be subject to "multi-stakeholder" oversight and would oppose transition to an inter-governmental administration such as the International Telecommunications Union. Currently the DoC delegates oversight functions to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers which in turn works with various private and sector bodies such as the Internet Engineering Task Force, the Internet Architecture Board, the Internet Society, the Regional Internet Registries, top level domain name operators and VeriSign to administrate the Internet. "The timing is right to start the transition process," said Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information Lawrence E. Strickling. "We look forward to ICANN convening stakeholders across the global Internet community to craft an appropriate transition plan." NTIA has communicated to ICANN that the transition proposal must have broad community support and address the following four principles: - Support and enhance the multi-stakeholder model; - Maintain the security, stability, and resiliency of the Internet DNS; - Meet the needs and expectation of the global customers and partners of ICANN's domain administration services; and, - Maintain the openness of the Internet. "Consistent with the clear policy expressed in bipartisan resolutions of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives (S.Con.Res.50 and H.Con.Res.127), which affirmed the United States support for the multi-stakeholder model of Internet governance, NTIA will not accept a proposal that replaces the NTIA role with a government-led or an inter-governmental organisation solution," it said. AUSTRALIA BACKS US: The decision won the instant backing of Australian communications minister Malcolm Turnbull, who said he had discussed the plans with Strickling last week. Australia has been a steadfast ally of the US's opposition to a role for the ITU in Internet administration. Turnbull said "the Australian Government is absolutely committed to supporting an open Internet which is administered by multi stakeholder organisations like ICANN and NOT by governments whether in the form of consortia or multilateral organisations like the ITU or the UN." "The Internet is the most remarkable invention of our times and while it had its origins in research contracts with the US Government its growth, its dynamism, its resilience have all been the result of collaborative efforts by the wide Internet community not government regulation or fiat." "While it is all too common to complain about the US Government role in the Internet the truth is that the world owes the United States an extraordinary debt not just for giving birth to the Internet, but above all for giving it the freedom to develop into the extraordinary global platform it has become today." "The (ICANN subsidiary) Internet Assigned Numbers Authority contract with the US Department of Commerce expires in September 2015 and today I assured the President of ICANN, Mr Fadi Chehade, that the Australian Government will provide all the support it can to ICANN's efforts to develop a structure of governance that will meet the US Department of Commerce's vitally important conditions of removing itself from the IANA arrangements at the heart of the Internet. DOMESTIC OPPOSITION TO CHANGE: However, the decision did not receive bipartisan support in the United States with Republican politicians and advisers defending the status quo and warning of the consequences of global control of Internet administration. Former House speaker Newt Gingrich said "Every American should worry about Obama giving up control of the internet to an undefined group. This is very, very dangerous. What is the global internet community that Obama wants to turn the internet over to? This risks foreign dictatorships defining the internet." A former State Department adviser under the Bush administration, Christian Whiton, said "US management of the internet has been exemplary and there is no reason to give this away -- especially in return for nothing. This is the Obama equivalent of Carter's decision to give away the Panama Canal -- only with possibly much worse consequences." GROWING PUSH AGAINST US: However, the US move has been interpreted by others as an early strike against what are likely to be persistent efforts to globalise the Internet's administration on terms which may prove unacceptable to the United States and its allies. Following unsuccessful attempts by China, Russia and the Arab bloc to have the ITU assume Internet governance functions in late 2012, there has been renewed pressure to change the status quo following the so-called Snowden revelations last year regarding pervasive US surveillance of foreign powers and individuals using Internet and telecom platforms. Brazil, one of the leading critics of the US, plans its own global Internet multi-stakeholder forum in late April in order to seize the initiative on how a post-US Internet might be shaped. Anti-US governmental members of the ITU are expected to revive their efforts in support of that organisation assuming Internet control when it convenes in South Korea for its plenipotentiary in November. The last ITU vote on these matters saw around 90 countries, led by China, Russia and the Arab world, support new regulations to "nationalise" the Internet and around 55, led by the US and its allies, support the status quo or a "multi-stakeholder" approach akin to the status quo, where specialist private and technical organisations such as ICANN perform management roles. Paul Rosenzweig, who served as a senior homeland security official under former President George W. Bush, opined "the move by the United States to start this transition now is either very canny or panicked. The optimist in me wants to think that the transition to ICANN management is an effort to forestall an even worse result from takeover of network administration by the ITU. It may be that allowing ICANN a controlling role will placate our European allies and prevent the ITU meeting in Busan, South Korea from becoming a debacle." "The pessimist, however, sees this as a reaction to the Snowden disclosures. All of a sudden American stewardship of the network is suspect. Some, hoping to defuse the anger, may have chosen to rush to give up that stewardship, without thinking through the consequences." Malcolm Turnbull also agreed that the US decision opened up a Pandora's box of challenges for those who think the existing system is generally successful. "There is a lot of work to do to support ICANN in transitioning to a new model and the Australian Government, committed as it is to a multi-stakeholder system of governance, will work with the Australian and global Internet community including other governments to ensure that the Internet remains free, stable and resilient and continues to be a powerful platform for freedom around the world," he said Grahame Lynch --- To get access to great articles like this, often before the mainstream media, please subscribe to Commsday - www.commsday.com ...Skeeve *Skeeve Stevens - *eintellego Networks Pty Ltd skeeve(a)eintellegonetworks.co.nz ; www.eintellegonetworks.co.nz Phone: +612 8014 7398; Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 ; skype://skeeve facebook.com/eintellegonetworks ; <http://twitter.com/networkceoau> linkedin.com/in/skeeve twitter.com/theispguy ; blog: www.theispguy.com The Experts Who The Experts Call Juniper - Cisco - Cloud - Consulting - IPv4 Brokering
