Juniper EX4600 "process switching"?
by Ewen McNeill 24 Oct '16

24 Oct '16

Does anyone have any suggestions for how to investigate what looks like certain paths of inter-virtual-router layer 3 switching (routing, via routes leaked into the VR) on a Juniper EX4600 (and I'd guess QFX5100) being sent via the supervisor CPU? Searching online turns up lots of advice for investigating, eg, "process switching" on Cisco (eg, http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ios-nx-os-software/ios-software-r…) but I'm not finding much documented for Juniper :-( From the customer point of view the most obvious symptom is approximately 10-20 ms additional latency on a local routed path (VLAN A on VR 1 to VLAN B on VR 2), but apparently only in one direction (ie, if we bypass the EX4600 in the problematic direction then it "seems to be okay". It happens even when there's basically no traffic (eg, under 1Mbps on a 1Gbps link), and only a couple of dozen devices on each VLAN. (At times we've seen the latency as high as 1000+ ms -- so over 1s, for local traffic -- but that was at a busier site.) From an internal point of view, the most obvious symptom is that the forwarding-options analzyer shows ingress/egress on one of the VLANs, but only ingress on the other VLAN; and "monitor traffic ..." shows only the missing egress traffic. Since I'd understood "monitor traffic" to only see traffic that goes via the supervisor CPU, I'm starting to wonder if the latency is coming due to the packet flow in that direction going through the processor CPU -- for some unknown reason. This is happening at two sites, but they're basically identical EX4600s facing basically identical switches, and equivalently configured routing instances in each. The two VLANs are sub-interfaces on the same aggregation (ae1) to the same switch, so it's sort of hairpinned, but via leaked static routes in the two routing instances. The on-VLAN hardware at each site is pretty similar too. So we're guessing the cause is the same, but don't know what it is. We've already tried testing with the aggregation down to a single link, and it appears to make no difference. We've also forced ethernet flow control off at both ends, without making a difference. Any thoughts, particularly to see what path through the EX4600 packets are taking, welcomed. Or documentation for how the EX4600/QFX5100 packet forwarding engine architecture works (I can find M/T/MX documents, but not the one I want...). Thanks, Ewen

Huawei AR160 - Chorus VDSL config anyone?
by Mike Taylor 26 Sep '16

26 Sep '16

Just thought I'd chuck this out there, as my Google-fu seems to be failing. Does anyone have a known good, Chorus Wholesale, VDSL config for an Huawei AR160 router? (The look like a Cisco 800 series, NOT the white,plastic consumer version) Specifically, I'm having an issue where PPPoE Active Discovery is working. The ISP core starts sending PPPoE LCP requests, and the Huawei _seems_ to think it's sending replies, but I'm wiresharking it in our core, and PPPoE frames are NOT making it back to us...

PCH peering survey 2016
by Bill Woodcock 14 Sep '16

14 Sep '16

Background: Five years ago PCH conducted the first, and to date only, comprehensive survey characterizing Internet peering agreements. The document that resulted can be found here: https://www.pch.net/resources/Papers/peering-survey/PCH-Peering-Survey-2011… <https://www.pch.net/resources/Papers/peering-survey/PCH-Peering-Survey-2011…> That document was one of the principal inputs to an important document that the OECD publishes every five years, one that recommends communications regulatory policy to OECD member nations: http://www.oecd.org/officialdocuments/publicdisplaydocumentpdf/?cote=DSTI/I… <http://www.oecd.org/officialdocuments/publicdisplaydocumentpdf/?cote=DSTI/I…> The survey had several useful findings which hadn’t previously been established as fact—most notably the portion of peering relationships that are “handshake” agreements, without written contract. These findings have improved the regulatory environments in which many of us operate our networks. At the time of the 2011 survey, we committed to repeating the survey every five years, so as to provide an ongoing indication of the direction peering trends take. It’s now five years later, so we’re repeating the survey. The survey is global in scope, and our goal is to reflect the diversity of peering agreements in the world; we’re interested in large ISPs and small ISPs, ISPs in Afghanistan and in Zimbabwe, bilateral agreements and multilateral, private and public. Our intent is to be as comprehensive as possible. In 2011, the responses we received represented 86% of all of the world’s ISPs and 96 countries. We would like to be at least as inclusive this time. Privacy: In 2011, we promised to collect the smallest set of data necessary to answer the questions, to perform the analysis immediately, and not to retain the data after the analysis was accomplished. In that way, we ensured that the privacy of respondents was fully protected. We did as we said, no data was leaked, and the whole community benefited from the trust that was extended to us. We ask for your trust again now as we make the same commitment to protect the privacy of all respondents, using the same process as last time. We are asking for no more data than is absolutely necessary. We will perform the analysis immediately upon receiving all of the data. We will delete the data once the analysis has been performed. The Survey: We would like to know the following five pieces of information relative to each Autonomous System you peer with: • Your ASN • Your peer’s ASN (peers only, not upstream transit providers or downstream customers) • Whether a written and signed peering agreement exists (the alternative being a less formal arrangement, such as a "handshake agreement") • Whether the terms are roughly symmetric (the alternative being that they describe an agreement with different terms for each of the two parties, such as one compensating the other, or one receiving more or fewer than full customer routes) • Whether a jurisdiction of governing law is defined • Whether IPv6 routes are being exchanged (this year, we’ll still assume that IPv4 are) The easiest way for us to receive the information is as a tab-text or CSV file or an Excel spreadsheet, consisting of rows with the following columns: Your ASN: Integer Peer ASN: Integer Written agreement: Boolean Symmetric: Boolean Governing Law: ISO 3166 two-digit country-code, or empty IPv6 Routes: Boolean For instance: 42 <tab> 715 <tab> false <tab> true <tab> us <tab> true <cr> 42 <tab> 3856 <tab> true <tab> true <tab> us <tab> true <cr> We are asking for the ASNs only so we can avoid double-counting a single pair of peers when we hear from both of them, and so that when we hear about a relationship in responses from both peers we can see how closely the two responses match, an important check on the quality of the survey. As soon as we've collated the data, we'll strip the ASNs to protect privacy, and only the final aggregate statistics will be published. We will never disclose any ASN or any information about any ASN. We already have more than 8,000 ASN-pair relationships documented, and we hope to receive as many more as possible. We'd like to finish collecting data by the end of September, about two weeks from now. If you’re peering with an MLPA route-server, you’re welcome to include just the route-server’s ASN, if that’s easiest, rather than trying to include each of the peer ASNs on the other side of the route-server. Either way is fine. If all of your sessions have the same characteristics, you can just tell us what those characteristics are once, your own ASN once, and give us a simple list of your peer ASNs. If your number of peers is small enough to be pasted or typed into an email, rather than attached as a file, and that’s simpler, just go ahead and do that. If you have written peering agreements that are covered by non-disclosure agreements, or if your organizational policy precludes disclosing your peers, but you’d still like to participate in the survey, please let us know, and we’ll work with whatever information you’re able to give us and try to ensure that your practices are statistically represented in our results. If you're able to help us, please email me the data in whatever form you can. If you need a non-disclosure, we're happy to sign one. Finally, if there are any other questions you’d like to see answered in the future, please let us know so that we can consider addressing them in the 2021 survey. The question about IPv6 routing in this year’s survey is there because quite a few of the 2011 respondents asked us to include it this time. Please respond by replying to this email, before the end of September. Thank you for considering participating. We very much appreciate it, and we look forward to returning the results to the community. -Bill Woodcock Executive Director Packet Clearing House

AS paths from NZIX route servers
by Lincoln Reid 08 Sep '16

08 Sep '16

Hi All, Currently ( all? ) the NZIX route servers insert the exchange ASN into routes that are advertised to the route servers. The exchanges that we peer with overseas such as Any2 in LA, Equinix Sydney and NSW-IX plus the new AKL-IX exchange do not insert the exchange ASN into advertisements, so all else being equal the paths from those exchanges are shorter than routes from APE and WIX by one AS hop. There are other NZ networks like us that peer at APE and/or WIX and also peer at overseas exchanges and to have optimal traffic flows with them, we put in one off hacks per network. The least ugly ways of doing this for us work fine but create per peer config that must be maintained. Ideally we can put bilateral peering up at APE and WIX so that the extra AS hop goes away but sometimes bilateral peering is impractical due to the other networks peering policy. I can't think of a reason why putting the exchange ASN in the path helps anyone. Is this just a hangover from the old days? Or is there some legitimate reason that it should be like this? Cheers, -- Lincoln Reid Head of Networks ACSData - AS18119 lincoln(a)acsdata.co.nz Phone: +64 4 939 2200 Fax: +64 4 939 2201

In case people are interested in heading across the ditch for AusNOG in September. Mark. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AusNOG] AusNOG 2016 programme and initial call for lightning talks Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 12:29:24 +0930 From: Mark Prior <mrp(a)mrp.net> To: ausnog(a)lists.ausnog.net <ausnog(a)lists.ausnog.net> Hello, The AusNOG web site has now been updated with the AusNOG 2016 programme. See <http://www.ausnog.net/events/ausnog-2016> for more details on the programme and abstracts for most of the presentations. As you will notice this year we will again be having a short lightning talk session. Anyone registered to attend AusNOG is welcome to submit a proposal to <organisers(a)ausnog.net> by 29 August 2016. A lightning talk is a short presentation on topics that are either too short, too timely or too preliminary to include on the general agenda, or even just something to stir up some discussion. There is no requirement for slides. As we tried to cram in as many presentations as possible this year time for lightning talks is limited and so we may need to restrict them to 5 minutes (or just run late :-) The organisers would like to especially encourage people who haven't spoken at an AusNOG before to consider having a go.

Trying to locate a cell device of the coast of Otago
by Travis Baird 20 Jul '16

20 Jul '16

Hi everyone. I am posting here as a last resort and this isn't really relevant to to this group, but more than anything I am hoping someone here may have some more knowledge about cellular technology than me. I have a customer that has lost a fairly expensive Buoy off the cost of Otago and it's GPS has stopped working. Vodafone have confirmed they are still seeing it connected to their cell tower (2G only) but the Vodafone helpdesk people aren't particularly helpful when we start asking them about options for finding a rough location at sea so we have an idea where to look for it. Does anyone know if it's possible to triangulate a location of a cellular device these days? Is there a cutoff distance from the tower that the device will no longer be able to connect (e.g. if there is this helps narrow the search area at least)? Does anyone have an contact details for someone at VF that might be able to help? If anyone has any info that might help, please contact me off list. Thanks in advance.

FYI/A A Leap Second will be added to the world's clocks at 2016/12/31 23:59:59/60 UTC. Owing to the fortuitous operation of the rotating globe, this will happen at lunchtime NZ Time (noon or 13:00, depending on how NZ Summer Time works) on New Year's Day 2017, so will more likely affect our post-prandial nap than interrupt our New Year revels Details below sig block.

Large increase in traffic
by Dave Mill 12 Jul '16

12 Jul '16

Hi We're seeing a large increase in inbound traffic levels today. Appears to be coming in both over peering links and internationally. Right now it appears to be Microsoft related. An AKL-IX graph shows it well - http://monitor.akl-ix.nz/cacti/graph.php?local_graph_id=14&rra_id=all Or the MS port: http://monitor.akl-ix.nz/cacti/graph.php?action=view&local_graph_id=137&rra… Does anyone else have more information to add as to what MS patches or similar are causing this? And over what borders this traffic is entering their networks? Cheers Dave

Huge increase in Spam traffic over the past few days - Domains registered with MelbourneIT?
by Cameron Bradley 12 Jul '16

12 Jul '16

Hi All, Wondering if anyone else has seen the same situation in their environments. Our MTAs are taking an absolute pounding (and as a result I'm not sleeping much!) from a bunch of hosts with PTRs for domains ending in 'eas.com' (ex 'leipai168eas.com', 'attractive7eas.com', 'theevermoreseas.com', 'bajasouleas.com'). All the domains seem to be registered through Melbourne IT to random gmail addresses (which themselves look spammy!) and using cloudns nameservers. There has also been a noted increase in traffic from other domains, but this one stood out to me as a pattern. We've got mitigations in play, but I'd still be interested to see if anyone else was experiencing any noise. Cheers, Cam

NOC status (was 2Degrees (SNAP) issues at 220 Queen Street this morning)
by Jamie Baddeley 05 Jul '16

05 Jul '16

I think it's a great idea. Would be a good paper/lightning talk from someone at the next NZNOG conference. The key issue is a standard API that network operators could present to an aggregator location like http://www.nznog.org/noc-list and for it to include info that operators need to know and care about. If some sort of API spec was published then at least folks would know what to aim for. Jeez, even a set of twitter handles to aggregate would be a start. But then we'd rely on Timmeh not breaking shit. Anyone up for talking about that sort of stuff in February?

Hi folks, For those not also on AusNOG - we've been having a play with this today, and enjoying it considerably more than certain previous IPAM and DCIM solutions.

NZNOG17 to be held in Tauranga
by Jamie Baddeley 26 Jun '16

26 Jun '16

Hi Folks, On behalf of the Trustees, I'm very pleased to announce that from the 23rd-27th of January 2017 the conference will be held in the Bay of Heaps, or more specifically, Tauranga. The venue is http://www.trinitywharf.co.nz - A couple of the trustees have visited the venue and they report it is a great spot. I know I'm looking forward to seeing you all there. I encourage all of you that are planning on going to book accomodation now. Book early and book often. We'll have more information up on the website soon about accomodation options. We'll let you know when that's up. I'll say it again, book now. At the venue, down the road, your mates place, whatever - it's the Bay of Plenty in January. You get the idea. For those of you out there seeking to sponsor this conference, then please get in touch with us via sponsorship(a)nznog.org (subject: sponsor)- we'd love to hear from you. For our good friends and sponsors from previous years, I'll be getting in touch with you next week. As always we sincerely appreciate your support. Now that we've got the venue sorted out we'll be sorting out registrations and all the rest of it which brings me to: --------- *Program Committee:* Once again we'll also need to assemble a program committee. Eligible PC candidates are those who have attended NZNOG conferences in the recent past, have broad technical knowledge of Internet operations, and have reasonable familiarity with the format of NZNOG conferences. PC members are expected to work actively to solicit content for the event and review submissions for technical merit. What the PC do and come up with is the most important thing for the whole conference. If you are interested in joining the PC send a brief note to "trustees at nznog.org". The note should include affiliation (if any) and contact details, and a brief description of why you would make a good addition to the PC. PC members receive complimentary registration for the event. ------------ Finally, can I just add that in what seems to be an ongoing climate of consolidation and acquisition, now is the time for all operators to get together to discuss what smart new things need to happen to keep moving the packets faster and better. There is always a better way. Cheers Jamie Baddeley on behalf of the NZNOG Trust.

Consulting: IPSec VPNs to multiple customer networks
by Christoph Berthoud 01 Jun '16

01 Jun '16

Hi All, We are looking for any network consultant/company who can assist with the following. Replies off-list please :) We have several customers who we have established site-to-site IPSec VPN tunnels with to provide them with remote support (I hate this concept but I have to go with it). Some of these connections are just single sites with a single network, others are to a customer's head office with multiple sites/networks behind. As we onboard more customers, terminating all of these VPNs onto our office firewall/router is becoming a headache. We regularly make changes to our firewall/routing and frequently run into issues affecting the VPN tunnels. We also have complex NATing for customers that have overlapping subnets. I want to remove our office firewall/router as the terminating endpoint of these VPN tunnels. My thought is to build a 'hub and spoke' topology, using a centralised hub router to terminate all of the customer VPN tunnels, and our office then also becoming a spoke. Now changes to my office network have no impact on the VPN setup, and vice-versa. If this is something you, your company or someone you can refer has experience in, I would very much like to hear from you. If you have had this problem in the past and have any other clever solutions, I would also love to hear from you! Happy long weekend! -- Thanks Christoph Berthoud

Encouragement for the tech community to submit on the .nz WHOIS review
by Dean Pemberton 22 May '16

22 May '16

Hi All, Wearing my INZ hat here. The Domain Name Commission is currently running a consultation process around the .nz WHOIS policies and InternetNZ would like to encourage people to make submissions on that process. This is especially true of people in the technical and security fields. While I don't want to offer an opinion about the current policies, any of the submissions, or proposals, what I do want to do is to encourage you to read the proposal and submissions and consider if you might like to make a submission of your own on the process. You can see more information at the link below with an outline of a proposed process. https://dnc.org.nz/consultation-whois-review-process If you think that there might be a better process than the one outlined then please put in a submission with your input and if possible details of an alternative process.

Mikrotik BGP VRF Advise
by Liam Farr 18 May '16

18 May '16

Hi, Im looking for someone to give some architectural advise on setting up VRFs on a Mikrotik for separating out BGP routing table functionally. E.g. Local BGP Peers / Local IX's > Local VRF National Transit BGP Peers > National VRF International Transit BGP Peers > International VRF Then leaking those routes into other VRFs, for example a customer transit VRF containing routes from all three. Is there anyone other there who has done this on a Mikrotik (preferably in production) that might be interested in providing some architectural advise / initial configuration help? Payment in cash / beer / hard liquor / your preferred currency. -- Kind Regards Liam Farr Maxum Data +64-9-950-5302

Exploit on Ubiquiti AirOS
by Dean Pemberton 16 May '16

16 May '16

Hi All I'm told that the local WISP operator community is dealing with a new worm[1] that exploits Ubiquiti AirOS devices running older firmwares. This could potentially be a lot of devices. http://community.ubnt.com/t5/airMAX-General-Discussion/Virus-attack-URGENT-… has ISPs from Spain, Brasil, and the US reporting infections in thelast 24 hours. Versions prior to these are vulnerable: 5.5.11 XM/TI. 5.5.10u2 XW 5.6.2 XW/XM/TI There looks to be some more information here which might or might not be related. https://hackerone.com/reports/73491 If you know anyone who makes use of UBNT AirOS products, now might be a time to give them a nudge. [1] quote from the forums "It's a self-distributing virus, so, once it can "see" neighbour antenas within the same subnet, it attacks the others."

AS17746 Gone burger
by Simon Allard 05 May '16

05 May '16

Good Morning NZNog. Just a FYI AS17746 is no longer aggregating any of the ex-Orcon IPv4 or Ipv6 subnets. These have been moved to AS9790. Its made our IPV6 uptake stats look a little sad, but that's just how it is. 17746 is still in the AS path for some routes, but the goal is for that to change overtime. Any issues encountered, please sing out Cheers, Si Simon Allard | Senior Network Architect D: 09 550 2790E: Simon.Allard(a)m2group.co.nz M: 020 100 0790W: vocus.co.nz A: PO Box 108-109, Symonds St, Auckland 1150

Xtra mail issues
by Chris Roberts 18 Apr '16

18 Apr '16

Hi Is there someone that can help with the issue of delayed mail with Xtra / Yahoo. There has been no mail sent to the xtra domain for some days now (like a week) so should there have been any issues it should have resolved. The NZNOG phone number for the NOC ends in Asia with some unhelpful people. We suspect the issue may have been caused by a winery sending a newsletter or a compromised user email address as you do from time to time. The domain that is being rejected is amuri.net I some one can contact me or sam(a)amuri.net or remove the block which would be even better that would be great. Below is the reject message: Action: failed Status: 4.4.2 Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with mx2.tnz.mail.yahoo.com[124.108.96.211] while sending RCPT TO and The mail system <xxxxxxx(a)xtra.co.nz>: delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with mx2.tnz.mail.yahoo.com[124.108.96.211] while sending RCPT TO Cheers Chris --

OT: Dodgy Russian port-scanning service / 158.255.5.147 causing high CPU
by Liam Farr 16 Apr '16

16 Apr '16

Hi, Just thought I’d throw this at the list, more of an interest piece than anything. A downstream network noticed today some extra latency on their network, caused by a significant increase in packets / CPU usage on a Mikrotik CCR in the path. At approximately 3:20 am this morning there was an uptick of about 25k PPS on their network, although not a significant increase in the amount of overall traffic (mbps) on the network. After some investigation this afternoon it was found that the additional increase in traffic was coming from 158.255.5.147 which appears to be a Russian web based port scanning service. While the service itself claims not to be malicious, by design it was causing a detrimental affect on the customer network, (increased CPU and increased latency), there is also the question of what the results of the port scan are used for, which I highly doubt is a legitimate purpose... Anyway enjoy your Sunday :) Liam

RAD E1 over IP converters
by Richard Naylor 11 Apr '16

11 Apr '16

Having a bit of a clean out here and found a pair of RAD IP-MUX-11 units. They are E1 over IP. Basically they use about 10Mbps to shift an E1 circuit (2 Mbps). One unit has a faulty power supply (5v and 3.5V) but otherwise is good. Free to a good home can be your "home lab" or business - otherwise they go into the recycle bin. Email off list if you're interested will this (de)generate into a series of emails...... Rich
