NZRR Route Registry Update
by NZRR Database Notifications 11 Jan '10

11 Jan '10

Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that one or more objects in which you are designated for notification have been modified in the NZRR routing registry database. These objects are used to configure the various NZIX route servers (http://nzix.net/) so you can expect the relevant servers to be reloaded in the near future. The reloading of the servers is staggered over a period of time so that if you are peering with both servers at an exchange, you can maintain at least one BGP session at all times and consequently a full set of routes.

Telco Rack Linux Server
by Jonathan Brewer 09 Jan '10

09 Jan '10

Hi Folks, Anyone out there using commercial, off the shelf linux servers that happen to mount in a telco rack? Ideal would be something along the lines of 3U high and 400mm deep. 50V DC would be ideal but that's probably dreaming. I'm not too fussed about architecture but I do want something supported by a real vendor that I'm likely to be able to continue buying on a regular basis. (I'm not interested in hearing about this guy who will build me a couple for real cheap.) Cheers, Jon

Final phase of four-byte AS number policy now active
by Elly Tawhai 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

_______________________________________________________________________ Final phase of four-byte AS number policy now active _______________________________________________________________________ As of 1 January 2010, APNIC no longer makes a distinction between four-byte only and two-byte only Autonomous System (AS) numbers. Instead, all AS numbers are now considered to be four-byte AS numbers. This change marks the final phase of the transition to four-byte AS numbers. For more information on the implementation phases of the four-byte AS number policy, please see "Policies for Autonomous System number management in the Asia Pacific region" section 6.3, "Timetable for moving from two-byte only AS numbers to four-byte AS numbers": http://www.apnic.net/policy/asn-policy.html#6.3 To learn more about how the transition to four-byte AS numbers may affect your network, see: http://icons.apnic.net/asn If you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact: helpdesk(a)apnic.net _______________________________________________________________________ APNIC Secretariat Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC) Tel: +61-7-3858-3100 PO Box 2131 Milton, QLD 4064 Australia Fax: +61-7-3858-3199 Level 1, 33 Park Road, Milton, QLD http://www.apnic.net

At 05:50 p.m. 23/12/2009, you wrote: >There seems to be quite a few hotels in downtown >Hamilton, and it is like only 1.5km to the uni.. not that Iâd walk it. We stay at the Ventura Hotel in Hamilton. Its very nice and includes breakfast. From memory its under $100 per night or thereabouts. They're tolerant of us (or we've trained them) so running power cables out to the van doesn't completely faze them. Neither does stashing our gear under the stairs. Maybe it was the time we were there with the Police and took a new car apart.... However, they do still talk about the time we did a link from London to a pub in Wellington for an All Blacks game doing mid span EQ in the hotel room. There was only a couple of roadcases of gear in the room, honest. But it was very cool - we got to watch Sky rugby with an alternate commentary. > Iâm a little too old and entitled these days > to stay in Uni accommodation ;-) Nah - its good fun and brings back memories. However, last time I did forget the golden rule about always carrying your room key, especially when going to the loo in the middle of the night.

2007 Conference Videos
by Richard Naylor 22 Dec '09

22 Dec '09

Video of talks from the 2007 NZNOG Conference is now available at http://www.r2.co.nz/20070131/ Sorry for the delay. The talks were shot to tape, which need to be captured, edited, transcoded and finally a big web page to cover it all. Theres 30 videos covering over 24 hours (something like 20 GB of server space). I have decided that its the video you all want, so haven't made any MP3s this time. Beat me up if you want MP3s. The video is available for both streaming (2 formats) and download (1 format). Theres a flash player and windows player option. And if you ever wondered if you can have 30 embedded players in a web page - the answer is yes - they all work at the same time. If your network and CPU can handle it. Don't watch them all at once..... and let me know if you find any issues. I haven't watched them all the way thru. We just processed them. A big thanks to James at InspireNet who paid for the video guys (not R2) who shot it with some nice cameras. Richard

They are including adjacent IP netblocks (in this case 120.89.79.0) rather than just the prefixes that we originate. So while we have normal background activity (from our own tracking), Conficker C stats are showing as 3%+, which would be cause for concern (I've had 3 people contact me about this in the last couple of days), but isn't actually happening. I've sent comment to the guys at Shadowserver, but it is worth signing up for the reports, even just to check that things are being reported correctly. Regards, Stu

NZRR Route Registry Update

Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that one or more objects in which you are designated for notification have been modified in the NZRR routing registry database.
