by Gavin Quayle 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Has anyone heard of a network provider in NZ named HSL? We have a router at a clients that is managed by “HSL” but no oneseems to know who HSL is.

infrastructure focused interviews
by Mehmet Akcin 23 Jun '20

23 Jun '20

Good morning A few weeks ago I've started hosting a youtube/twitch/twitter live video show (simultaneous stream) hosting key people who are involved in the exec/operations/engineering of internet infrastructure companies either as consumer or service providers. my idea is to create a platform where questions/concerns can be asked directly to executives/key decision-makers and hopefully get answers. Very similar to Reddit AMA but with focus on telecom/datacenter/infrastructure/DNS/etc. For example, I will have execs from zayo, Windstream, aqua comms, packet fabric this week as my guests where you will be able to ask questions directly. There is also a 1-1 discussion with APNIC's Chief Scientist Geoff Houston about internet growth during lockdowns, and more. I am now working on adding more international speakers to give a global view of internet infrastructure. you can watch the shows live, ask questions, and be part of the conversation from all these platforms. example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEoZNDMDnww in few minutes Geoff will be live here! do you have questions? join us! twitter https://twitter.com/mhm7kcn also available on twitch, and Facebook. if you have a recommendation on speakers you want to see, ask questions, you can contact me offlist. I thought I would share this here, I am sorry if this is off-topic and also sorry for cross-posting in few lists you may be a member of. Mehmet

by Scott Newton 17 Jun '20

Hi Been getting some bans on my web server where the source is in the local NZ range. Was wondering if it was worth forwarding these on to the the abuse@ addresses or do most ISPs just ignore them due to high volume of spam they get? Thanks -- Regards Scott Newton

NZ Eyeball ISP Top Talkers
by Jonathan Brewer 14 May '20

14 May '20

Hi Folks, I'm trying to help out a customer in the Pacific understand what a developed market traffic profile looks like. In particular I'm looking for a list of your top 20 ASNs by traffic volume. Big bonus if you can attach percentages to those ASNs. If any of you can share any rough detail it would be much appreciated. Anything's fine - attributable, non-attributable, fallen off the back of a truck, apocryphal tales from a late night whisky session, whatever. Thanks, Jon

Free Software Mirror Group's fourth birthday
by Michael Fincham 02 Apr '20

02 Apr '20

Hi all, Just a quick note to say that yesterday was The Free Software Mirror Group's fourth birthday (we think). Which is quite incredible. I've said it before but I'd like to say it again: thank you to all the support and aroha we've received from the NZ operator community to facilitate the work we've been doing. In particular our sponsors: - REANNZ, who provide us with power, colo and a fat series of tubes - Insomnia Security, Catalyst, Advantage Computers, who contributed heartily towards hardware - and WAND group for letting Brad spend so much time on FSMG stuff :) And thanks to everyone else who's offered hardware, compute time or other resources. I'd also like to personally thank the two volunteers who've done huge amounts of work on the project: - Brad Cowie - James Forman I couldn't have kept things running as smoothly without you guys! Here are some highlights of our work in the last four years: - Upgraded our PoPs to 10 gig connections to REANNZ (Wellington on hold due to pandemic) - Official NZ mirrors for: - http://ftp.nz.debian.org - http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com - https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/archlinux/ - https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/debian-cd/ - https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/kali/ - https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/pub/OpenBSD/ - https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/raspbian/ - Unofficial mirrors for a variety of other things, check out https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/ for a list - Presented at LCA on our mirroring infrastructure - Built Ansible playbooks and numerous pieces of in-house tooling to automate and improve the process of running software mirrors (which we still want to open source!) If you're interested in seeing some stats on what we mirror, how much bandwidth we're using etc, you can find it on our dashboards for each site: https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/.fsmg/nodes/hlzmel/ https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/.fsmg/nodes/wlglam/ Our goal for 2020 and beyond is still to upgrade the hardware we're using and to open source our infrastructure tooling. We're not sure what this is going to look like yet but we'll keep folks in the loop :) Cheers again and if you have any questions or want to chat, we're in #fsmg on freenode. -- Michael Fincham
