ntp.net.nz update
by Jay Daley 10 Mar '13

10 Mar '13

Hi A brief update on the status of our public NTP service. For those of you unaware of this service then details are at http://ntp.net.net - We have new firmware on the boxes that fixes previous IPv6 issues so ntp1.ntp.net.nz and ntp3 are now properly accessible over IPv6. ntp2 has a provider IPv6 issue that is still waiting to be fixed. - We believe this firmware also fixes the autokey issues but we are still testing that before enabling it. - Currently each server independently takes its reference time from differential GPS, which is very slightly different from official NZ time. We spoken to the people from IRL responsible for official NZ time and we have agreed a long term plan that will see the differences between GPS and NZ time sent directly to our servers from the IRL atomic clocks, which will condition our servers very close to official NZ time. - We're considering adding one more server to the network, definitely not a Symmetricom this time. We've spoken to Tekron International, a Lower Hutt company who make GPS timing kit about possibly using one of their products but are still researching alternatives. We hardly ever get any feedback on this service and so assume it is working fine, but now's your chance to tell us what you think or if there is anything more we could be doing to make this service more beneficial. cheers Jay -- Jay Daley Chief Executive .nz Registry Services (New Zealand Domain Name Registry Limited) desk: +64 4 931 6977 mobile: +64 21 678840 linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/jaydaley

NZ ISP level rate limiting to Office365
by Blair Robson 10 Mar '13

10 Mar '13

Hiyas, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask...but I want to know if ISPs are setting any rules around upload traffic to office365? At the moment I'm just looking for a route....any route that is going to give me more than 60k up... (the most common is 40k...) Tried Orcon, Vodafone, HD and getting either 40k rated or 60k rated upload speed to Office 365. If this is the wrong place, can anyone suggest somewhere more appropriate? (already talking to Microsoft) Thanks Blair Robson I Engineer I Maclean Ph: 09 950 2592 Fx: 09 369 1560 Wb: maclean.co.nz<http://www.maclean.co.nz/> Level 2, 25 Union St, Auckland 1010 PO Box 90 400, Victoria St West, Auckland 1142 [cid:image001.gif(a)01CE1BE5.C23447F0] [cid:image002.png(a)01CE1BE5.C23447F0]<http://www.linkedin.com/companies/maclean-computing?trk=copro_tab> Attention: This email message and/or attachment may contain information that is confidential and subject to privilege.

PCAP of APE issues last night?
by Tim Hoffman 06 Mar '13

06 Mar '13

Greetings all, Following last night's issues on the APE, Dylan and I were wondering wondering if any APE participants managed to take a pcap of the traffic they were seeing on their interfaces facing the exchange. If any of you did and are willing to share this would be incredibly useful to us - drop us a message off-list. Many thanks, Tim

Re: [nznog] [AusNOG] IPv4 - Where is the training?

Hi Don, There is not currently any APNIC IPv6 training scheduled for Christchurch. However we will be conducting an IPv6 Workshop in Auckland, which will be held on 6 - 8 May. For more information and registration please visit: http://training.apnic.net/events/2013/workshop-ipv6-6may13 If you have any queries please contact <training(a)apnic.net> (apologies for cross list posting thought this maybe of interest to those on NZNOG list) Kind regards, Elly APNIC Don Gould wrote: > On 5/03/2013 4:23 p.m., jason andrade wrote: >> From: Elly Tawhai <elly(a)apnic.net> >> To: "ausnog(a)ausnog.net" <ausnog(a)ausnog.net> >> Subject: [AusNOG] [::] APNIC IPv6 Workshop BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA 13-15 >> Mar 2013 >> > Thanks.

IPv6 peering at APE
by Sid Jones 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

There is quite a significant disparity between the number of active peers on the two APE IPv6 route servers. [ You can see this at http://nzix.net/cgi-bin/lg.cgi ] e.g. There are 68 IPv6 peers configured on both the route servers. I see 44 established IPv6 peering sessions on rs1.ape.nzix.net, yet only 24 sessions on rs2.ape.nzix.net. If we can assist in anyway to get more of these sessions established please let us know.

Best local presentation at NZNOG2013
by Gerard Creamer 04 Mar '13

04 Mar '13

Hi all, Thanks to everyone who came to NZNOG last week, it was great to have you all there. And thanks to all of you who helped out, and especially to all of our sponsors. This year we added an incentive to local presenters - the best local presentation would win travel and accommodation to APRICOT in Singapore and a complementary registration. The paper would be submitted to the APRICOT programme comittee and the winner might get to present at the event. There was quite a lot of discussion about who should win, and we have selected Donald Love's presentation on UFB Realities as the best local presentation at NZNOG 2013 for it's combination of technically interesting content and 'good honest truth' delivery. Congratulations to Donald and a big thank you to all of our local presenters for the interesting and engaging presentations. If you have something technically interesting worth sharing start planning your submission for NZNOG 2014 now :^) NZNOG 2014 will be held January 27-31 2014 in Nelson, New Zealand, and a Call for Papers will be issued to this list later in the year. Cheers, Gerard

Re: [nznog] [AusNOG] IPv4 - Where is the training?
by Don Gould 04 Mar '13

Karl, If we can have 50 posts about 23 IP phones on list, then I'm sure some discussion about IPv6 training can be endured even if there are parties with a commercial interest. I am interested and I wonder how many more folk in my area would also be interested (Christchurch) hence why I've copied the NZNOG in as well. What the discussion over the past few days has highlighted for me is I clearly don't know enough and if the messages in my inbox are anything to go by, then there must be others in the same boat. I'd like to understand what the training I need might cost me. How much people think I need to invest in myself to get myself on track. I'd be interested to hear from others, on or off list who might also be interested in some more help to get up to v6 speed. D On 5/03/2013 4:35 p.m., Karl Auer wrote: > Hi Don.

Network device discovery
by Paul Adshead 04 Mar '13

04 Mar '13

Hi guys. I'm looking for software that will discover network devices site-wide, as the start-point for an asset management db. Looking for MAC and IP primarily, but if manufacturer\model would be great too. Having command line execution, connectivity diagram output and being opensource\free, would all be a bonus. Not looking forward to having to do it manually, so what's out there to make life easier? Almost time for a beer. Thanks, Paul.

Hi Noggers, We are looking for some internet connectivity into a new support centre in the Auckland CBD. There is an existing fibre box and a bunch of DSL style ports. Needs to connect with our DC networks in Airedale Street and Rosedale. International connectivity a must. Please contact me off list. Many thanks, Darren.
