Skinny Modems and RFC1918 DNS
by Simon Lyall 17 Jan '23

17 Jan '23

We are getting reports from a couple of people that some Skinny Modems are getting confused with some DNS records. It appears that if the IP returned from the lookup is a RFC 1918 one they won't return the result to the client. One modem in question has: Skinny Smart Modem VRV9517UWAC34-A-SP on it and I think VRV9517 is the model name. This appears to be a fairly recent problem, showing up since people came back from break. Not ruling out some other cause but direct testing of queries is doing the above. Possibly a recent software upgrade or "security" setting. Direct queries against the DNS servers themselves seem okay, it only breaks when you use the modem as the DNS server. Not confirmed for all of RFC1918 space, but definitly 192.168.1.x Anyone seen similar or know of a fix? (for now we are getting people to use 1.1.1.1 or similar for DNS). -- Simon Lyall | Very Busy | Web: http://www.simonlyall.com/ "To stay awake all night adds a day to your life" - Stilgar

NZNOG 2023 Announcement
by Richard Nelson 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

** *Hi all, * * The NZNOG Trust wishes to announce the NZNOG 2023 conference. We will host this on March 23rd and 24th, 2023, in Rotorua at the Rydges Hotel. As usual, the conference will be on Thursday and Friday, with tutorials available on Wednesday 22nd and a workshop from Monday to Wednesday. A dinner will be held on the Thursday night of the conference. More details on the conference will be posted to our website when available. Expect a call for papers and an announcement when registrations open. A discount code will be available for the hotel. From our negotiations with hotels it has become clear that due to the return of tourism, accommodation could be in short supply so we recommend booking early. We do have arrangements in place to allow postponement of the conference if the pandemic resurges but at this stage we do not anticipate that it will be necessary. We are seeking sponsors and will shortly finalise our sponsorship document for NZNOG 2023. For details contact sponsorship(a)nznog.org. www.nznog.org Richard Nelson On behalf of the NZNOG Trust *

Interest in hearing about IETF meetings?
by Jay Daley 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

Seeing the messages to this list about an OARC meeting made me wonder if people on this list would be interested in an occasional (three times a year) post about upcoming IETF meetings? (my $dayjob is IETF Executive Director) For those that don't know, the IETF [1] is the main standards body for the Internet and those standards are published as Internet RFCs [2]. The standards are developed by Working Groups that are open to any individual to participate in, free of charge and without any form of membership, and by using email as the primary means of discussion [3]. There is significant participation from the operator community as well as equipment manufacturers, academics, browser developers and interested individuals. The IETF meets in-person three times a year on a global rotation with full remote participation provided. cheers Jay [1] https://www.ietf.org/ [2] https://www.rfc-editor.org/ [3] https://www.ietf.org/how/wgs/ -- Jay Daley jay(a)daley.org.nz +64 21 678840

Mikrotik CPE with Spark Fibre issue
by Daniel Christie 31 Aug '22

31 Aug '22

Hi, I work for MSP and having issues with customers Mikrotik routers that connect specifically with Spark Fibre. The issue is the routers when initially configured work well and run continuously for many day/weeks/months But eventually something kicks the connection then the PPPoE on the Mikrotik will fail to re-establish its WAN fibre connection. The solution has been to get customer to get their Spark provided router connected which works, then they swap the Mikrotik back in again and it works again. I have done plenty of googling but can't find anything helpful We generally resell voyager fibre to most of our customers with the Mikrotik router and they work flawlessly, but some customers insist on staying with spark and we prefer to only deploy Mikrotiks These logs rotate over and over while its down... [cid:image001.png(a)01D8BD2B.7E085BB0] Can anyone (hopefully Spark engineer) please help with this? Regards, Daniel @ Cloudland

Advice regarding selling a /24
by tomcharlesscott＠gmail.com 28 Jul '22

28 Jul '22

Hi All, I've been directed to this mailing list by a work colleague as a place to ask advice regarding selling a /24. I was recently approached by a relative regarding an IPv4 /24 block, as he received an email from APNIC stating that a membership account would need to be opened, and the block validly claimed by 1 Jan 2023, or they would be placed into reserved status. They were assigned around 1992 and haven't been used for anything since at least the early 2000s. As they predate APNIC, they're deemed "historical resources". He has no need for a block this size and is hence looking to sell it. I've not dealt with such things before so am looking for some advice as how I would go about doing so. It seems like using an IP broker might be a way forward (though I couldn’t find any based in NZ, I assume any would do, especially with inter-RIR transfers possible). Another way might be to contact ISPs directly? Either way, I’m assuming (and correct me if I’m wrong here) he’d have to open a membership account and properly claim the IPs before any sale would be possible. This looks like it would cost around 1700 NZD so I’m trying to get an idea of the process before committing to that. Regards, Thomas

Hello NZNOGers, I'm an academic (see my UM page <https://www.um.edu.mt/profile/etiennedepasquale> and my ResearchGate page <https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Etienne-Victor-Depasquale>), with a research interest in standardizing architectures for the benefit of energy analysts (like me). I'm asking for your help through your response to a questionnaire that forms part of an academic study that I'm carrying out <https://forms.gle/AAJokyg98JLW7Ti6A>. The study is directed solely towards facilitating understanding of metro area networks, for analysts who approach from the perspective of energy consumption. The study is anonymous (no individual or company names are solicited), and individual responses will only be used in aggregate. I have published interim data here <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1kJnEjukNDGC4JARuhgBI0HUUrQ8UNA-G71Aa6heaK8…> (available until 8pm CET Friday 22nd July) I shall: (a) publish full data when I've received the quota of 50/50 and (b) correspond with respondents who would like a copy of the paper which I intend to produce with the results. Yours sincerely, Etienne -- Ing.

14 Jul '22

Hi all, We've passed the 10th anniversary of World IPv6 Launch Day, but it doesn't seem like we've got very far? What happened to the Task Force? The site says it's archived, or is there a new one? Cheers, Richard
