BRAS Options
by Stan Rivett 09 Nov '17

Hi all The time has come to replace my poor old Cisco 7301 and the quote I got for an ASR1002-HX made my eyes water. Still waiting for a Juniper quote but the general discussion seemed like similar numbers. Are there any other reliable options out there that don't cost more than my first house?

Open Source LI project
by Shane Alcock 09 Nov '17

09 Nov '17

Hi all, A couple of months back, there was a discussion on this list about the ETSI standard for lawful intercept and the lack of available open source implementations of the standard. After some preliminary research and consultation with a handful of operators, WAND (and myself in particular) are putting together a proposal to develop an ETSI-compliant lawful intercept software tool, provided that this is still something that will be of use to people in the NZNOG community. We propose that the resulting software will be open-source and freely available to anyone, but that anyone who wants to see this project progress quickly should consider chipping in some funding to help cover the cost of having a dedicated programmer working on this for ~10-20 hours a week. The total funding pool doesn't need to be overly large: I am confident we will need much less than some of the numbers I've been hearing as the likely cost of a single piece of ETSI-compliant vendor kit. Of course, anyone who is providing funding would be consulted during the development process to ensure that the resulting software will be compatible with their particular network configuration. For now, I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who would like to use this software, regardless of whether you are able to fund the development or not. Replies can be on or off list. If we get enough interest, we would be looking at holding a meeting with anyone interested in funding later on this month (probably in Hamilton) to discuss the requirements for the software and how the funding model is going to work. The goal is to try and have the software in a deployable state (including being signed-off by police as being compliant) by April. I'm happy to take further questions or comments, either on or off list. Thanks, Shane Alcock Research Programmer WAND University of Waikato

by Simon Lyall 24 Oct '17

24 Oct '17

There will be a one day mini conference on Linux Systems Administration held as part of linux.conf.au 2018 (held in Sydney, Australia on 22 - 26 January 2018). The organisers of the Systems Administration Miniconf would like to invite proposals for presentations to be delivered at the Miniconf, https://sysadmin.miniconf.org/cfp18.html (A copy of the CFP text is included below for your convenience.) Please forward this CFP to your colleagues, peers, social networks, and other relevant mailing lists. Please help by encouraging submissions from people you would like to hear present at this Miniconf. This is our 12th Sysadmin Miniconf at Linux.conf.au. Previous presentations can be found at the website: https://sysadmin.miniconf.org/ -=+ Presentation Topics +=- We welcome talks on best current practice, new developments in Systems Administration, cutting edge techniques and technologies, and ways to better manage Linux environments large and small. Topics for presentations could include (but are not limited to): * Systems Administration Best Practice * Virtualisation and Cloud Computing * Containers and orchestration * Sysadmin Administration in a "serverless" environment (FAAS) * TLS everywhere * Monitoring and metrics. Collection, storage and presentation * Infrastructure/Platform/Software as a Service (IAAS, PAAS, SAAS) * Networkng: IPv6, SDN (Software Defined Networking), performance * DevOps, Configuration Management and provisioning * Bootstrapping systems, Lifecycle Management * Dealing with BYOD * Backups in a virtual/distributed world * Troubleshooting techniques * DevOps and SysAdmin Culture * Web and Email management * Keeping legacy systems functioning * War stories from the "Real World" Presentations should be of a technical nature and speakers should assume that members of the audience have at least a couple of years experience in Unix/Linux administration. -=+ Format of Presentations +=- We are now seeking proposals for presentations at the mini-conference. We have openings for: 15-25 minute short presentations 5-10 minute "lightning talks" Please note, due to the single day available (and whole-LCA keynote before morning tea), we expect the majority of available timeslots to be 20 minutes or less, with possibly 1-2 slightly longer talks if there is space in the schedule. We have a general policy of accepting a high proportion of proposals but handing out relatively short timeslots. Please see previous years Miniconf schedules for examples of how the programme is organised. -=+ Submitting talks +=- Please note that in order to give a presentation or attend the Miniconf you must be registered (and paid up by the time the conference happens) for the main linux.conf.au conference. Presenting at the Miniconf does not entitle you to discounted or free registration at the main conference nor to priority with registration. Unfortunately the Miniconf has no budget for sponsorship of speakers. To submit a talk to the LCA2017 Sysadmin Miniconf, create an account on the LCA2018 website: https://linux.conf.au/dashboard create a speaker profile, and then select "New Proposal" and "System Administration Miniconf Presentation", or while logged into the LCA2018 site, go directly to: https://rego.linux.conf.au/proposals/submit/sysadmin-miniconf/ If you have a preferred length of your Short Presentation (15/20/25 minutes) or Lightning Talk (5/10 minutes) please use the Private Abstract field to describe what would work best for your talk. Otherwise we will pick a length that best suits the gaps in the programme as we put the final programme together. In some cases we maybe able to add a few extra minutes to a few Short Presentations if there is any spare time left in the programme. -=+ Dates and Deadlines +=- To encourage early submissions, priority (both of inclusion and scheduling) will be given to presentations submitted by 23:59 UTC on the 5th of November 2017. I f you have a good presentation idea, please let us know early, even if you need time to finalise the presentation abstract. Please indicate if you need an early confirmation to aid you in arranging time off work or travel; we will do our best to assist. 2017-11-05 - Deadline for early submissions 2017-12-03 - Deadline for submissions 2017-12-10 - Miniconf programme published 2018-01-22 - Sysadmin Miniconf held. -=+ Contact and Questions +=- Please see our website at https://sysadmin.miniconf.org for more information on the Miniconf, past presentations and presenting at it.

ntp.net.nz changes and update
by Josh Simpson 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

Hi NZNOG, Time for a ntp.net.nz update and upcoming changes. ntp1.ntp.net.nz needs to be migrated to a new router, this will mean the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses will change, currently scheduled for 2017-10-22. 202.46.191.123 to 202.46.177.18 2001:dce:4000:2::123 to 2001:dce:3:17a::18 ntp2.ntp.net.nz is still IPv4 only, we are working on restoring IPv6 once we have upstream connectivity sorted. ntp3.ntp.net.nz has had IPv6 turned back on, this has been operating with v6 since 2017-09-25. ntp4.ntp.net.nz has been live for over 14 months, IPv4 only, this is located in Christchurch. We are working with our upstream to have IPv6 connectivity. We have also been testing a number of the servers in pool.ntp.org in the New Zealand and Oceania Pools, this has been going well and we have seen a jump in NTP packets per second on each node from a max of ~7 to a max of ~1000. We plan to add the rest of the servers in shortly. Details of the service can be found at https://ntp.net.nz As always let us know if you have any queries.

KSK Rollover Postponed
by Save Vocea 28 Sep '17

28 Sep '17

Dear NZNOG community, A couple of weeks ago I posted ICANNs’ KSK rollover timelines in here. It was announced today that the plan to change the cryptographic key that helps protect the Domain Name System (DNS) is being postponed. The changing or "rolling" of the KSK Key was originally scheduled to occur on 11 October, but it is being delayed because some recently obtained data shows that a significant number of resolvers used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and Network Operators are not yet ready for the Key Rollover. The availability of this new data is due to a very recent DNS protocol feature that adds the ability for a resolver to report back to the root servers which keys it has configured. Full announcement is here: https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2017-09-27-en Regards, Save Vocea ICANN staff in the region From: Save Vocea <save.vocea(a)icann.org> Date: Tuesday, September 12, 2017 at 4:53 PM To: NZNOG <nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz> Subject: KSK rollover timeline and how to check if your systems are ready Dear NZNOG list members, I’d appreciate if this is shared through your network /organizations and to check if your systems won’t be affected by the following change. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is planning to roll, or change, the “top” pair of cryptographic keys used in the Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) protocol, commonly known as the Root Zone KSK. This will be the first time the KSK has been changed since it was initially generated in 2010, and is considered an important security step, in much the same way that regularly changing passwords is considered a prudent practice by any Internet user. What does that mean? Rolling the KSK means generating a new cryptographic public and private key pair and distributing the new public component to parties who operate validating resolvers, including: Internet Service Providers; enterprise network administrators and other Domain Name System (DNS) resolver operators; DNS resolver software developers; system integrators; and hardware and software distributors who install or ship the root's "trust anchor." The KSK is used to cryptographically sign the Zone Signing Key (ZSK), which is used by the Root Zone Maintainer to DNSSEC-sign the root zone of the Internet's DNS. Why do you need to prepare? Currently, 25% of global Internet users, or 750 million people, use DNSSEC-validating resolvers that could be affected by the KSK rollover. If these validating resolvers do not have the new key when the KSK is rolled, end users relying on those resolvers will encounter errors and be unable to access the Internet. How to know if your systems are up-to-date? ICANN is offering a test bed for operators or any interested parties to confirm that their systems handle the automated update process correctly. Check to make sure your systems are ready by visiting: http://go.icann.org/KSKtest. What is the timeline for this process? October 27, 2016: KSK rollover process begins as the new KSK is generated. July 11, 2017: Publication of new KSK in DNS. September 19, 2017: Size increase for DNSKEY response from root name servers. October 11, 2017: New KSK begins to sign the root zone key set (the actual rollover event). January 11, 2018: Revocation of old KSK. March 22, 2018: Last day the old KSK appears in the root zone. August 2018: Old key is deleted from equipment in both ICANN Key Management Facilities. More information about the root zone KSK rollover is available here: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/ksk-rollover. Thank you, Save vocea VP, Global Stakeholder Engagement, Oceania ICANN

23 Sep '17

Does anyone have a network contact at Datacom please? I can't get to datacom.co.nz (direct) from my NZ connection, and can't get to Geekzone via Cloudflare either (CF returns a timeout trying to reach origin). However if I fire a VPN to Sydney both datacom.co.nz and Geekzone work fine. Called datacentre and ops guys have no idea what's going on. Seems that traffic to NZ is being impacted but not to overseas. Cheers Mauricio Freitas https://about.me/freitasm

NZNOG 2018 updates
by Dave Mill 14 Sep '17

14 Sep '17

Hi all I wanted to give some more details on our plans for the conference next year. On Wednesday Facebook are looking at holding a Network Automation Hack event as part of NZNOG. This should be a really awesome session. It will be similar to this - https://netengcodehack2017.splashthat.com/%29 . Whilst this isn't completely locked in yet it has approval internally at Facebook and looks set to happen. I'd suggest if this interests you then plan to be at NZNOG from Wed - Fri. Be warned, seats will be limited. The other event I wanted to announce I unfortunately still can't. I've been chasing people pretty hard on it and I still don't know that it will definitely happen :( I will update when I know more. Cheers Dave

Dialup over Ethernet
by Ewen McNeill 13 Sep '17

13 Sep '17

A client had a (business) customer switch over to UFB and needed assistance reconfiguring the (Mikrotik) router being attached to the ONT -- it turned out whoever first set up the Mikrotik (sensibly) assumed it'd be seeing IP packets over VLAN 10, but actually the ISP required IP packets over PPPoE over VLAN 10 in order for it to work. Looking around it appears this client's customer's ISP isn't the only one that is requiring PPPoE over VLAN tagging over Ethernet for their UFB connections. Is there a reason other than "let's make everything look like 1990s dialup so it works with our legacy equipment" for the bit/CPE CPU overhead of PPPoE on UFB, including imposing the lowered usable MTU and PMTU discovery headaches on the end user? The only one that really comes to mind is "user/password authentication" (rather than needing to collect CPE MAC addresses which seems to happen with, eg, Vodafone cable/FibreX). But it's not clear to me why, eg, 802.1X isn't used for the user/password authentication in that case; or DHCP with some extension to pass a "secret" identifier. 20-bytes-per-packet-forever seems a large overhead to pay for user/password authentication at CPE power on.... (Maybe in the beginning there's "lack of CPE support" -- but we're a few years into the UFB rollout, and lots of ISPs seem to be supplying their own ISP-badged CPEs anyway, which could presumably implement whatever was needed.)

AirNZ SPF Issues
by Pieter De Wit 11 Sep '17

11 Sep '17

Hey NZNOG’rs, I know that this is not “nice to do” but I have tried the contact centre - the issue is logged but I doubt it will get to the right people ? AirNZ currently has 2 SPF entries and this is causing emails to fail: dig TXT airnz.co.nz | grep spf1 airnz.co.nz. 21301 IN TXT "v=spf1 a ..." airnz.co.nz. 21301 IN TXT "v=spf1 …" Please fix :) I have error logs going back to the 8th of Aug, if that helps ? I don’t know what other domains this was done on. Cheers, Pieter

KSK rollover timeline and how to check if your systems are ready
by Save Vocea 11 Sep '17

11 Sep '17

Dear NZNOG list members, I’d appreciate if this is shared through your network /organizations and to check if your systems won’t be affected by the following change. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is planning to roll, or change, the “top” pair of cryptographic keys used in the Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) protocol, commonly known as the Root Zone KSK. This will be the first time the KSK has been changed since it was initially generated in 2010, and is considered an important security step, in much the same way that regularly changing passwords is considered a prudent practice by any Internet user. What does that mean? Rolling the KSK means generating a new cryptographic public and private key pair and distributing the new public component to parties who operate validating resolvers, including: Internet Service Providers; enterprise network administrators and other Domain Name System (DNS) resolver operators; DNS resolver software developers; system integrators; and hardware and software distributors who install or ship the root's "trust anchor." The KSK is used to cryptographically sign the Zone Signing Key (ZSK), which is used by the Root Zone Maintainer to DNSSEC-sign the root zone of the Internet's DNS. Why do you need to prepare? Currently, 25% of global Internet users, or 750 million people, use DNSSEC-validating resolvers that could be affected by the KSK rollover. If these validating resolvers do not have the new key when the KSK is rolled, end users relying on those resolvers will encounter errors and be unable to access the Internet. How to know if your systems are up-to-date? ICANN is offering a test bed for operators or any interested parties to confirm that their systems handle the automated update process correctly. Check to make sure your systems are ready by visiting: http://go.icann.org/KSKtest. What is the timeline for this process? October 27, 2016: KSK rollover process begins as the new KSK is generated. July 11, 2017: Publication of new KSK in DNS. September 19, 2017: Size increase for DNSKEY response from root name servers. October 11, 2017: New KSK begins to sign the root zone key set (the actual rollover event). January 11, 2018: Revocation of old KSK. March 22, 2018: Last day the old KSK appears in the root zone. August 2018: Old key is deleted from equipment in both ICANN Key Management Facilities. More information about the root zone KSK rollover is available here: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/ksk-rollover. Thank you, Save vocea VP, Global Stakeholder Engagement, Oceania ICANN

TICSA and lawful intercept
by Dave Mill 06 Sep '17

06 Sep '17

Hi all So, probably a bit a touchy subject this one but here goes.. If you are a network operator and you have more than 4000 customers in my understanding you need to have full interceptions capabilities. (I'm not a lawyer, etc, etc) This is more than just being 'interception ready'. http://www.police.govt.nz/advice/businesses-and-organisations/ticsa/interce… This will mean having a mediation system and being able to produce intercept data in the ETSI standard - again, as far as I know. What are companies/organisations out there doing about this? Is there a nice open source solution out there for this? (I haven't found one yet) Are people putting their heads in the sand and praying they never get served a warrant? Is everyone just shelling out hundreds of thousands of dollars on a vendor LI solutions? What network kit are people integrating with LI in NZ? And note, the last paragraph on the URL I linked above reads: "Can I share interception capability resources? Network operators may co-ordinate, share or contract for services (equipment or staff) in order to meet the interception capability requirements in the Act. However, it remains the responsibility of the network operator to ensure that any such arrangement does not affect any obligations that apply under the Act. Before entering into any such arrangement a network operator must notify the Director of the GCSB." Replies on or off list welcomed. Cheers Dave (AS17705)

Vodafone outage in Karori/Highbury/Aro Valley (Wellington)
by Joel Wirāmu Pauling 22 Aug '17

22 Aug '17

Just spoke with Vodafone NOC - there was is planned upgrade work going on Karori prod node. Whatever it is seems to have taken out Highbury CMNT network. The Public facing Network status meter however shows all good - when there has been an ongoing outage since around 0100. Change window is meant to close at 0300 so hopefully it resumes before then. I am a little annoyed when there is planned work but the Public reporting tool isn't updated or fed by these things. -Joel

Multiple connections to UFB in server room
by Paul Adshead 10 Aug '17

10 Aug '17

Hi guys. A shared server room has an active UFB service for another business on the floor. We want UFB service to our office too. Is an additional ONT install needed (as I'm being told by <ISP>)? Or, can Chorus just enable another port on the existing ONT and have and then run a network cable out to both routers from one ONT? Is the ONT capable of multiple PPPOE sessions to the offsite hardware? Or is this just creating a problem that doesn't need to exist (- ie say yes to the second ONT install)? Many thanks, Paul Adshead. 021890258

Mikrotik and VLAN stripping
by Steve Phillips 18 Jul '17

18 Jul '17

Hi Guys, I was just wondering if it’s possible to set an egress rule on a mikrotik to strip any vlan tag without specifying the VLAN, and if so, what this configuration would look like? (i.e – vlan=any) It seems that you can do this for specific VLANS but if the inbound VLAN tag is random there doesn’t seem to be any ready examples on how to do this. Is it even possible? Or am I just trying to do things incorrectly? -- Steve.

Request for contact in TVNZ On Demand for escalation of support ticket 117175
by Alexander Neilson 05 Jul '17

05 Jul '17

Hi All Sorry for the noise. Can someone inside TVNZ On Demand please make contact off list. It looks like some of our IP's (At $DAYJOB - inside 45.118.188.0/22) are on some kind of block list being used by TVNZ On Demand for Akamai delivered videos. The video player just shows a fairly useless error message, and when looked at in fiddler a 403 is being returned from the Akamai server. We are not aware of any lists any of the affected IP's are on and I believe they may be legacy listings. I have been trying to work through with TVNZ On Demand Support under Ticket 117175. So far I haven't been able to escalate this or get any feedback or way forward. We have worked with our upstream carrier and they have raised it with Akamai who have indicated it isn't a block they have in place but that their customer has hence trying to make contact with someone who could check if the blocks are recent or prior to being held by us and if recent what caused them so we can resolve it. Thank you for your time. Regards Alexander 022 456 2326

RFC 8195 "Use of Large Communities"
by Job Snijders 01 Jul '17

01 Jul '17

Dear NZNOG, RFC 8195 "Use of BGP Large Communities" was just now published: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8195 RFC 8195 presents examples and inspiration for the operational application of Large Communities. The document suggests logical categories of Large Communities and demonstrates an orderly manner of organizing community values within those categories to achieve typical goals in routing policy. Any network or route server operator can consider using the concepts presented as the basis for their own Large Communities repertoire. RFC 8195 is meant as a companion document in the same way that RFC 1998 provided a concrete real-world application for RFC1997 BGP Communities. The RFC draws on the experience of operator communities such as NANOG and NLNOG. A ton of open source implementations [1] with Large support are already available. And with more traditional vendors like IOS XR, Junos, Arista & Nokia having releases around the corner, I hope this will be useful when planning your Large Communities deployment later this year. Kind regards, Job [1]: http://largebgpcommunities.net/implementations/

InternetNZ presents: Dr Marc Bruyere - The TouSIX project: SDN IXPs from design to production
by Dean Pemberton 14 Jun '17

14 Jun '17

Hi all, Just wanted to let you know about a presentation that InternetNZ is hosting in Wellington. The TouSIX project: SDN IXPs from design to production Wed 28th Jun 12:00pm – 1:00pm InternetNZ offices, level 11, 80 Boulcott Street, Wellington, New Zealand Registration: https://the-tousix-project-sdn-ixps-from-design-to-production.lilregie.com/… Come along to a presentation from Dr. Marc Bruyere. Bio here: https://www.internetsociety.org/afpif-2016/speakers/dr-marc-bruyere The Internet eXchange Points (IXP) are essential for the Internet evolution as they empower high bandwidth low latency and inexpensive local traffic peering as opposed to transit traffic. OpenFlow SDN enables more dynamic network programmability to control network behaviour via open interfaces, as opposed to the legacy closed-box solutions and proprietary-defined interfaces. This presentation is about the migration of the TouIX from a traditional to a full OpenFlow IXP. It especially describes how switches have been selected, configured and installed, and presents the TouSIX-Manager tools that have been developed for the IXP fabric robustness and members benefit. It also includes future SDX work in Japan and elsewhere, and the historical NZ based CARDIGAN SDX. TouIX is a non-profit neutral Internet eXchange Point organisation founded in 2005. It provides an interconnected network infrastructure at 4 PoPs around the city of Toulouse and the Paris FranceIX and LyonIX IXPs. Please note catering will not be provided.

Hello all, At the last LACNIC event, I mentioned on a couple of occasions the need for ISPs in the region, especially small and medium-sized ones, to participate in the decisions taken in the IETF IPv6 Operations Working Group (v6ops). I’m sending this here as well, as I believe the situation also apply to this region. When I asked among the attendees how many participate in v6ops, only one person raised his hand. What does it mean to participate in the mailing list? Follow some emails (sometimes only 1-2 a week, sometimes they can be several in a day), and therefore learn about what is being discussed and give your opinion and, given that decisions are made by Consensus, influence them. What consequences has NOT participating? That decisions against your interests/opinions could be taken, and obviously do not consider your perspective in the standards. Generally large operators are involved, which implies that your interests are not sufficiently represented, and in general are contrary to yours. Your "vote/opinion" is not worth more than yours, but the big one is present and the small/medium NO! I give you a very concrete example. The serious problem that small and medium ISPs have, is to continue offering IPv6 and IPv4 services to their customers, when they already do not have IPv4 addresses. Only the biggest ISPs have a great purchasing power and can influence the manufacturers to do for them what they need. One possibility to solve it, extending the life of IPv4, but not necessarily deploying IPv6, is using CGN, which is also very expensive, and breaks many things. The solution is simple. Deploying IPv6-only services in the last mile, which involves using transition mechanisms, such as 464XLAT that has been deployed on millions of smartphones worldwide, so that applications continue to operate transparently as they "believe" they have IPv4. What is the problem, then? That manufacturers of CPEs are based on an old specification (RFC7084) that does not contemplate these transition mechanisms, so when a small/medium ISP asks a manufacturer for a firmware upgrade or a new CPE, they do not include that solution and perhaps they offer it with an extra cost. In my view, this should change, and that is why I am working on a number of documents, including RFC7084-bis (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-v6ops-rfc7084-bis/) To update this situation, but there is opposition from large ISPs and virtually no small/medium "talks" about it, and in fact these large ISPs deny the situation. In addition, the document also specifies the "automated" support of those cases in which the user installs other routers (which is very common as we all know, and will be more and more in IPv6, IoT, etc.), behind the router installed by the ISP, through homenet (HNCP). I am not asking for your support for my documents, but for understanding the problem and the solution that is being proposed and/or possible new ones, and for the opinion of not only those very few “big ones”, but also of many small and medium, who are most affected.
