NZNOG 2026 registration is now open. We have some great tutorials this year - BGP operations by Philip Smith from NSRC, RADIUS by Alan DeKok, and Containerlabs by the Nokia folks. Last year we did a social thing on the Friday which we are repeating with a couple of options. We recommend getting accomodation sorted soon - as Christchurch can fill up suddenly. We have had some great talks proposed so far which will be going up on the talks page soon, and are keen for more. If you've done an interesting project, had an interesting fault, or have some ideas you want to share, please submit! Don't just leave the talks to the "big" operators and vendors, we are keen to hear from everyone. Info for all of the above is on the website.

Minimizing the BGP Flap Storm risk in NZ ... can I ask a favor?
by Barry Greene 10 Nov '25

10 Nov '25

Hi Team, Some know me, some don’t. I’m asking as someone who has been around BGP security/resiliency for a while. We have a risk in the industry that we can all prevent - by deploying the BGP session security tools whenever we configure BGP sessions. Our Problem: We have ~274,000 BGP sessions open to anyone in the world who wishes to initiate a low-level DDoS attack to disrupt the BGP session. New Zealand currently has ~470 open BGP sessions. The Risk: A BGP Session knockdown risk model exists that can target an organization, an ISP, a whole country, or the entire Internet. Is this a serious risk? About a year ago, I conducted a Shadowserver Ops review with one of the major US broadband companies. I shared with my peers working there that they had ~60 BGP IPv6 sessions open to the risk (no iACLs, no ACL on the device, no control plane protection, no GTSM, etc). They have been part of tabletop exercises where “BGP Flap Storm” was used as one of the plays. Once informed, they resolved the issue within 40 minutes through an emergency ACL deployment. The ask: Deploy the basics of BGP Session Security on all your existing BGP Sessions. Talk to your peers on the other side of the BGP session to fix their BGP Session security (remember, BGP session re-establishment could happen from either side). Update your processes, procedures, and SCRIPTs to include BGP Session security (one of my theories is that people are using scripts to deploy that are not complete). If you need a complete breakdown of which routers on your network have their BGP session open, take the simple route and sign up for the Daily Shadowserver reports on your network. They are free for you. I’ve locked down many ISPs’ security risks just by using the Shadowserver reports. Just go to this link to subscribe: https://www.shadowserver.org/what-we-do/network-reporting/get-reports/ Sincerely, Barry Greene Old Security Geek WhatsApp/Signal +1 408 218 4669. PS - I’m asking this just in New Zealand right now because I live here (now) and wondering if we could knock out this risk …. Or is the potential of a BGP Flap Storm knocking out Telecom something we have to just live with?

Spoofer Report for NZNOG for Aug 2025
by CAIDA Spoofer Project 08 Sep '25

08 Sep '25

In response to feedback from operational security communities, CAIDA's source address validation measurement project (https://spoofer.caida.org) is automatically generating monthly reports of ASes originating prefixes in BGP for systems from which we received packets with a spoofed source address. We are publishing these reports to network and security operations lists in order to ensure this information reaches operational contacts in these ASes. This report summarises tests conducted within nzl. Inferred improvements during Aug 2025: none inferred Source Address Validation issues inferred during Aug 2025: ASN Name First-Spoofed Last-Spoofed 45177 DEVOLI 2025-08-23 2025-08-23 Further information for these tests where we received spoofed packets is available at: https://spoofer.caida.org/recent_tests.php?country_include=nzl&no_block=1 Please send any feedback or suggestions to spoofer-info(a)caida.org
