NZNOG Trustees: Act on NZNOG Website
by Jonathan Brewer 07 Apr '13

07 Apr '13

Hi All, Two months ago we had a conference in Wellington. Since then the website has still not been updated to reflect the programme on the day. Previous conference websites have disappeared from the Internet. I understand the trustees have funds at their disposal, and I call on them to take one of the following actions: 1.) Hire someone to sort out the site 2.) Find someone who will do it for free 3.) (or) step down and appoint someone who cares Sorry guys, I like you as people, but your performance here has been abysmal. Fix it please. If you don't want to do anything, I put my hand up for taking over a trustee seat. -JB

I.e., 3Mbps required 6MHz. That's because bits are signaled by transitions. The advantage is that it's self clocking. -- Michael Newbery IP Architect IT&P: Architecture Vodafone New Zealand Ltd. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unless otherwise stated, any views or opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not represent those of Vodafone New Zealand Limited.

According to some media the cell phone turns 40 this month. EE Times has some articles on it or Google Marty Cooper. 22 May is the 40th for Ethernet - when Robert Metcalf wrote his memo outlining ethernet to his Boss. Both sound like good reasons for more beer.

public consultation on root zone KSK rollover
by Joe Abley 03 Apr '13

03 Apr '13

Hi all, As advised a month or so ago, the following public comment period is open: http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/root-zone-consultation-08mar13-… We have received a small number of responses which are accessible from that page. The topic at hand and the specific questions that have been asked as part of the consultation are important ones; the decisions taken will have operational consequences to any user of the Internet who validates DNS responses with DNSSEC. If you have experience, opinions or expertise to contribute, it would be greatly appreciated. The window for being able to submit comments closes on 12 April 2013 at 23:59 UTC. Many thanks, Joe

Re: [nznog] NZNOG Digest, Vol 124, Issue 2
by Alan Maher 01 Apr '13

I also observe AusNOG, where there is a considerable amount of discussion (sometimes superfluous) and a great reporting system for network outages and so on. And now they have a page for the sale of surplus equipment. Along with some great direct recruitment stuff, that probably never makes the*popular press*. Surely this is a measure of an active community of interest. Activity levels on NZNOG have been somewhat muted in recent times. Does this imply that everything is fine and dandy, and the pills are working quite well, thank you? I will open an alternative discussion to try and break the ice-jam. Can anyone give me some best experience on a cost effective/IPV6 capable consumer router, aside from a Fritz box? Are the PACE boxes from Telecom/Chorus any good? Do they do IPV6? They seem to do almost anything, judging by their tech spin. ADSL/VDSL/Fibre etc. Lets get some debate going people.

route servers
by Blair Harrison 01 Apr '13

01 Apr '13

Hello List In order to create some discussion (as Andy seems to think there isn't any) .. I note that using regexp ^ as an option on the ape/wix/chix/hix route servers looking glass no longer gives a full list of routes.. it seems somewhat truncated. At some point in the past it gave a full list, but perhaps now the number of routes has exceeded the limit set on the software? It would be appreciated if this could be adjusted so that I (and anyone else who might be interested) might continue my academic musings on the state of the routing table :) Cheers, Blair

I noticed there was an Alcatel-Lucent cable ship in Wellington. Anyone got a clue on what this might be related to? Some new cable being laid in NZ waters or is it just stopping by? Cheers Kris

iconz ipv6?
by Blair Harrison 24 Mar '13

Hi guys, Anyone else having issues getting to ICONZ's IPV6 nameservers? Blair:~ blair$ dig iconz.co.nz @2405:6000:2:1::1 ; <<>> DiG 9.8.3-P1 <<>> iconz.co.nz @2405:6000:2:1::1 ;; global options: +cmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached Blair:~ blair$ dig iconz.co.nz @2405:6000:2:2::1 ; <<>> DiG 9.8.3-P1 <<>> iconz.co.nz @2405:6000:2:2::1 ;; global options: +cmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached --- 2405:6000:2:1::1 ping6 statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss ICONZ - if you're publishing ipv6 glue, you might want to make sure it works... Also, the glue you're publishing seems to be different to your AAAA records for ns1/ns2 ?? ...... ns_name_01: ns1.iconz.co.nz ns_ip6_01: 2405:6000:2:3::1 ns_name_02: ns2.iconz.co.nz ns_ip6_02: 2405:6000:2:2::2 Might want to fix that.. or at the very least revoke your ipv6 glue, if you aren't going to make your ipv6 work properly? Cheers, Blair
