Otherwise it wouldn't be fair, would it? This is getting off topic and probably better on an InternetNZ list but I thought it was worth answering the specific question. The criteria that has been in place for new 2LDs is that they are for a distinct community of interest. So far only two communities of interest have applied in four years - bankers and the NZ Maori Internet Society (whoops actually there was an informal application from Cliff Pratt on behalf of all the Cliffs in NZ!). If other communities of interest apply there would be no barriers beyond the steps taken as part of the policy process which apply to all applications.

Implementing QoS on a Cisco 2503 Router

Hello there, I was just wondering if somebody on this list would be able to guide me as to how I could implement QoS on my Cisco 2503 Router? What we need: We have several boxes colocated with us. However, we currently don't have a system in place that implements bandwith quotas on them. We need this so that we can limit down all the machines to 256k. Please let me know, if anybody knows any handy tutorials on the net?

Cisco ARP takeover vulnerabilities
by Simon Blake 13 Feb '02

13 Feb '02

Hi Folks Just a quick heads up - yesterday on Citylink we had the customer of an ISP perform a very effective DOS on that ISP when the customer put the IP number of the ISP's router on to the Citylink interface of their own router. Any ISP who has a Cisco router attached to a public L2 infrastructure (such as Citylink) really needs to read the Cisco advisory: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/IOS-arp-overwrite-vuln-pub.shtml and take the appropiate precautions.

Finally, one of their techs called, seems it had only just happened, the "cea-wea-mea-3" submarine cable was again out of service, and that they had nothing they could do about it except report it to reach.com who handle all their international links, and try to get some additional capacity via new zealand or something. I haven't seen an outage report or anything from them, I know, it's only been 90 minutes... don't rush it.

Who thinks it would be a good idea to create a new mailling list specificially for updates of domestic peering policy and some bgp discussion that might be a little off-topic for this list?

The New Zealand Network Operators' Group
by Donald Neal 31 Jan '02

31 Jan '02

The New Zealand Network Operators' Group The New Zealand Network Operators' Group (NZNOG) has no king, president or formal membership. At present it consists of the subscribers to this mailing list, which anyone is free to join. This list has around 320 subscribers, with the number rising by a few each month. You may only post to the list from an address subscribed to one of the lists described below. (Non-member postings and spam continue to be bounced in roughly equal volumes.) The NZNOG mailing list is provided through a server at The University of Waikato, and is administered by an employee of Telecom NZ Ltd. Neither of these organisations, nor the administrator, is responsible for its content. NZNOG Mailing List Acceptable Use Policy The NZNOG mailing list exists to provide a forum for the exchange of technical information and the discussion of implementation issues that require cooperation among New Zealand network service providers. In order to continue to provide a useful forum for discussion of relevant technical issues, users of the list are asked to respect the following guidelines. 1. Discussion will focus on Internet operational and technical issues. 2. Discussion related to meetings of network service providers is appropriate. 3. Discussion unrelated to these topics is not appropriate. 4. Postings to multiple mailing lists are discouraged. 5. Postings that include foul language, character assassination, and lack of respect for other participants are unacceptable. 6. Blatant product or service marketing is unacceptable. 7. Postings of a political, philosophical or legal nature are discouraged. 8. Postings to the list should be in ASCII or MIME encoded as text/plain. Attachments should not be sent to the list. To present a document, a suitable URL may be referred to. For documents of general interest, the use of proprietary file formats is discouraged. 9. Breaches of list etiquette should be dealt with privately with the offending list user, and should not result in complaints being sent to the list. 10. A person repeatedly breaching list etiquette shall receive warnings from the list administrator. A further breach after the second such warning within thirty days shall result in the offender being unsubscribed from the list. Other action may also be taken to block postings to the list by the offender. Any such unsubscription is to be immediately announced to the list. Mailing List Archives A full archive is available at http://list.waikato.ac.nz/archives/nznog/ Any message sent to the list will be archived and made available on the web automatically. Changes are not made to the archive on request, though the administrator remains happy to assist the Office of the Privacy Commissioner should any complaint be laid with that office. Subscribing to the List To subscribe to the NZNOG list, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz, where the body of the message reads subscribe nznog Digest Mailing List If you don't wish to receive postings as they are sent, you can instead subscribe to the nznog-digest mailiing list, on which all postings are sent out in a single "digest" every couple of days. Post-only Mailing List An address from which you wish to post, but which will not receive messages from the list, may be subscribed to nznog-postonly. You will presumably want to have another address subscribed to the main nznog list. Other Activities Work is no under way towards a conference and social gathering to be held in Auckland in July 2002. Speakers, organisational workers and, yes, sponsors are sought. Voice over IP, wireless networking and IPv6 seem to be among the topics in which there's most interest.

I was not going to say anything, but this list is getting a little out of control, When posting to the list can we please, to try and keep the number of posts down, limit comments to things that are relevant to all the people on the list ? I get a huge amount of e-mail each day and simply don't need the additional comments such as this, even the comments about the conference and organisation of such conferences, while interesting, started to add so much to the noise ratio of this list that I considered unsubscribing for a month or so till it all settled down. If these subjects need to be discussed at length then it would be relatively easy to create a new temporary list to keep the non-relevant posting, or the posts that many people subscribed to this list are not interested in - off this list. (I'm sure a number of people here would be able to set such lists up at little to no notice) Sorry if I step on anyone toes by posting this, it's my opinion only :-) -- Steve ICONZ.

NZNOG 2002 Dates and Location
by Donald Neal 28 Jan '02

28 Jan '02

NZNOG People, UniForum NZ have announced to their members that their conference this year will run 11-14 July at a hotel near Auckland Airport. (This is the last few days of the school holidays.) The small amount of directly relevant feedback I have received suggests a preference for an event in Auckland, with some people keen to be part of a UniForum conference. Unless I hear objections from people who would otherwise attend, I intend to try to arrange for NZNOG involvement in that conference. A condition of this would be that people are able to register only for days on which NZNOG appears (though other things may well be going on at the same time). These are tentatively Thursday 11th and Friday 12th. We're not yet at the stage where registration costs can be set, but discussion on this list seems to suggest that $100/day is acceptable for those not presenting. If there are objections to this, I'd like to hear now. If not, I intend to get back this week to the people who have offered to help with a view to confirming their interest given these specific dates. It is not my intention that any detailed organisational work be done using this list, but progress announcements can be expected from time to time.

NZNOG Conference 2002: Further Feedback
by Donald Neal 23 Jan '02

23 Jan '02

NZNOG People, OK, I asked for further feedback and now I've got some. Quite a lot actually. With a certain amount of interpretation on my part (e.g. all cases of "I'll bring along some other people" interpreted as "I'll bring along one other person"), I believe that we have something like this: Potential attendees volunteering: 21 Potential attendees volunteered by others: 7 Offers to provide or be speaker(s): 7 Offer to help organise speakers: 1 Offers to help organise: 5 Offers of venue: 4 Offer of sponsorship (i.e. money): 1 Offer of exhibition network equipment: 1 There have been relatively few statements of preference as to location: Auckland: 3 Wellington: 3 With UniForum NZ: 2 Hawke's Bay: 1 Outside Auckland and Wellington: 1 Interpreting the comments of two University of Waikato staff as votes for Hamilton would not clarify that picture any. I'm impressed. All of that in three days. We do appear to have enough interest to justify proceeding to planning a specific event. In doing that we face a number of inter-related decisions. 1/ Do we wish to restrict this to one day, or are we looking for a residential conference? I think this is the most important of the decisions. It has implications for cost, obviously, but also for where we do this and what sort of organisational structure is needed. A residential conference should probably be outside (though within reach of) Auckland or Wellington to keep costs down and to reduce the temptation to go back to work. Conversely, that can be expected to make it harder for some people to attend. I'm assuming that we do want a national event rather than local meetings over drinks, but if that's not the case, now's the time to say so. I'm also assuming that multicasting is an add-on to a physical event, not a substitute for one. 2/ Are we happy to have a vendor provide a venue? There has been at least one quite feasible, as well as generous, offer from a vendor. Whether this is even an issue depends on the answer to the previous question. 3/ How often are we planning to do this? Should we be thinking big on the basis that this is a once-a-year thing, or are we trying to keep the scale down so that it will be repeatable more often? This is closely related to cost, in money and time to organise. See also question 1. 4/ How much emphasis do we want to place on construction of a laboratory/exhibition network as opposed to paper sessions? More hands-on fiddling means the option of having attendees have stuff explained to them as they do it, but requires a longer event. My Opinion: "The opinions expressed in this programme are bloody good ones." - F. Dagg I wish us to be very conservative in what we expect from the team of people we put together to organise this. I believe that if we choose a residential event we should piggyback it into UniForum NZ's event and seek to have them do a fair amount of the work for us. Conversely, if we choose a one-day event we should seek to cooperate with a host organisation - whether an education institution or a company - while ensuring that a NZNOG committee (yes, sorry, it has come to that) retains control over the programme. In either case a certain amount of exposure for vendors is to be expected. As to frequency, I'm inclined to go for as large an event as we think we can manage, and worry about the next one after we've learned about running one. Others may think differently. I believe that the composition of the committee/team/chain gang will vary depending on exactly what we're trying to achieve. So I'd like to see some discussion of these questions, and others that seem relevant _to potential attendees_ before we try to work out who's going to be asked to take the next steps. I'd hope for some clearer idea of where we're going within the next few days. - Donald Neal ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "This communication, including any attachments, is confidential.

Conference
by Michael Hallager 22 Jan '02

22 Jan '02

Hi all, I would like to confirm my interest in the conference. However I am somewhat sick and tired of the large amount of E-Mail this has generated in my inbox. (30+ messages per day). I would anticipate attending the conference to learn more about something, however I would prefer that the minority who wish to have a protracted debate on what this "something" is could do so in private, and then when they have made their mind up- then send the ideas to the list. Any comments? Based on what I have seen, I would like to learm more about the cable network setup/s. (As covered in recent posts). Beyond that, I am happy with whatever else. Hence, I only need one email to express my interest.

Hi all, Here is another example of those "holier than thou" idiots at the Consumers Institute making official type/sounding comments on stuff they know nothing about: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/storydisplay.cfm?storyID=787311&thesection=techno… I assume that these are the same people who love "cheap" Internet Access, while forgetting the price/performance equation. Now they seek to put even more burden on the average low/no-profit ISP. Sorta reminds me of the show "Target" a little while back. Their technical xpurt amounted to no more than a television presenter/actor and their "investigations" for the most part are highly questionable in regards to honest and accurate reporting IMHO.

InternetNZ (or more specifically its Vice-President Rick Shera) noticed a few days ago the possible ramifications of the law where ISPs can be caught in the middle between telcos and customers. Rick has put in a submission to the select cmte. ISPs and others could ask the Cmte Clerk if they can put in a late submission (they were due in by 15th). The Clerk is Marie Alexander, e-mail: SC-Commerce(a)parliament.govt.nz and phone: 64 4 471 9532. InternetNZ will make an oral submission on the bill also. Possibly an interested ISP could ask to be part of the delegation (adds credibility to have actual ISP there). Any examples etc of how this will unfairly penalise ISPs for things not under their control could forward such material onto Rick or Sue Leader.

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/storydisplay.cfm?storyID=787311 " Residential internet users who suffer email delays, network outages or slow connection speeds will gain the right of redress against service providers under a proposed law change." This law will hold ISPs liable for delays in e-mail delivery even when the delays are associated with a remote network over which the ISP has no control.

(Cheap) Wireless bridging options ?
by Simon Byrnand 20 Jan '02

20 Jan '02

Hi Wireless guru's (he says hopefully :) In the next month or so I'm in need of a simple Wireless Bridge setup to temporarily Bridge the Ethernet's of two buildings for about 2 days. The distance is under 500 metres, and it must be bridged, not routed. I already have on hand a variety of old and new 802.11b wireless gear (Lucent/Orinoco) so I'd like to use what I have if possible. In particular I've got a couple of Lucent Wavepoint-II access points sitting around spare. The catch is that the normal access point firmware will not bridge between two access points, it will only connect to client stations. The client cards I have are also Lucent (Silver) cards, and those cannot do bridging as a client, as either the driver or firmware (probably the firmware) on the card doesn't allow it. (Believe me, I've tried, unless I've missed some trick :-) So I seem to have a few options: 1) Get the "Remote Outdoor Router" firmware and enabling keys for both access points - this would allow them to bridge two networks, but the cost is high - a bit of searching on the net and the lowest price I could find was around $800 NZ *each*. ~ $1600 for something that is only going to be needed for a couple of days is out of the question. 2) Some trick to be able to bridge with a Silver card being used in a "client" role. (No luck finding anything yet) 3) Abandon the Lucent cards and find some other card whose drivers allow bridging, and set up a linux machine (or linux boot disk) that will bridge between that card and the ethernet. Assuming the brand of card will connect to the Lucent Access point, the access point can do the bridging at the other end. If that wouldn't work, I'd need two of that kind of card and two PC's...(the PC's and the Linux boot disk aren't a problem, I'm pretty fluent in Linux) 4) Something else ? Any suggestions from those a bit more versed in Wireless techniques gratefully received..

Hi all, I would like to purchase a link (256k?) with IP addresses from an ISP with an ATM located in the Auckland area. Virtual ISP's and those reselling other's services (IOW: Do not own their own infastructure) need not apply. Also, this is not to be confused with a post that I made, of a similar nature, but for a different requirement, about 3 months ago. I can be contacted in confidence via E-Mail. Please include your contact details.

NASA Television Streaming - Multicast or Unicast
by WALLY 19 Jan '02

19 Jan '02

Hello All, I've been trying to stream NASA Television into our television repeater CH 39 UHF here in Auckland for some time now. This will reduce the potential risk of radio hams losing CH 39 UHF. Raido Hams have recently lost 440 MHz to 449.750 MHz our previous TV reapeater input frequency. I know that the CH 39 UHF power levels are low with new linking equiptment being constructed and purchased.A power up grade is on the cards also. We have a high power broadcast tv transmitter but nowhere to install it without complaints (resource consents, power and site costs etc).We are unable to run this high power transmitter at our current site as there is no room for it. The club arrangement is a non profit order.This is a problem also. I hope this year will be an expansion year for CH 39 UHF. Currently we are under pressure such as the MED,RSM UHF TV call to for expressions of interest for community tv licences (CH 35 to 42).The other option is to apply for an ad-hoc licence after the first round of community licences have been let.If there are any left.Yes,ad-hoc as the MED,RSM call it. Link to MED. http://www.med.govt.nz/rsm/licensing/uhftveoi.html NASATV cannot be pulled off direct satellite here in New. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Multicasting I've not had the support from large ISPs to accomodate this. The CH 39 UHF Television Radio Ham exercise runs at low cost. Were trying to promote NASATV and encourage the public of all ages to get educated and have fun on the internet and internet ham radio. NASATV has many web sites constantly informing the world wide public to gain access and learn something in their lives.These web sites are often transmitted via CH 39 UHF and hopefully promote and encourage people to become aware of the need to have internet comunications.Get connected and live again. I see this as a win,win for all. 7kbps to 13kbps is not what broadband is about.The buffering is on and off constantly. My Jetstart service has some what been reduced ( some services disabled,Load Balancing ,IP assend IP desend,Multicasting disabled etc ). I have two Jetstart accounts with Telecom Xtra. All I really need is a quality multicast connection at no less than 64kbps.I can't de-compress 28kbps well enough to an acceptable level,tv-out full screen etc.100Kbps is even better but too costly at present.300kbps flys and de-compresses well.Its very expensive and still stops and starts with no connection or 7kbps to 16kbps with no picture and audio breaking up. Whats missing in customer contracts is the information disclosing what features (hardware or filters and services) are disabled or dis-allowed.A customer believes that they are purchasing full access to where they intend to connect. Thanks all, Wally Muzyka, Radio Ham ZL1VWM, NASATV Supporter. Email: zl1vwm(a)xtra.co.nz PS: The Auckland VHF Group club rooms can be made available for a group of say up to fifty people if you get stuck sorting out a place for your first NZNOG Conference.It's in Hazel Ave,Mt Roskill.The building is of school class room size sited on the Council Reserve.I know of another radio ham Simon from Cisco who may wish to rally up support for NZNOG.There are other radio hams that work in the IP industry also.Would you like to invite them to NZNOG Conference also or have a closed meeting instead.
