BRAS Options

Hi all The time has come to replace my poor old Cisco 7301 and the quote I got for an ASR1002-HX made my eyes water. Still waiting for a Juniper quote but the general discussion seemed like similar numbers. Are there any other reliable options out there that don't cost more than my first house?

Crikey, thanks for all the replies Yes we need 10 Gbit, at least 3 ports and I'd rather not be too specific about numbers but more than a few thousand. Apologies for being a bit of a cheap bugger but you know what its like as an SME, it all comes out of my pocket ;-) Cheers Stan Rivett ------------------ Netspeed PO Box 5691 Dunedin P: +64 3 481 7245 C: +64 21 323 841 ------------------ On 8 November 2017 at 11:14, Tim Price <tim(a)initech.co.nz> wrote: > Juniper MX5 + licensing shouldn’t cost you more than $30k depending on > your Juniper partner status and where you buy it from. > > > > *From: *<nznog-bounces(a)list.waikato.ac.nz> on behalf of Stan Rivett < > stan(a)netspeed.net.nz> > *Date: *Wednesday, 8 November 2017 at 11:02 AM > *To: *nznog <NZNOG(a)list.waikato.ac.nz> > *Subject: *[nznog] BRAS Options > > > > Hi all > > > > The time has come to replace my poor old Cisco 7301 and the quote I got > for an ASR1002-HX made my eyes water.

Open Source LI project
by Shane Alcock 09 Nov '17

09 Nov '17

Hi all, A couple of months back, there was a discussion on this list about the ETSI standard for lawful intercept and the lack of available open source implementations of the standard. After some preliminary research and consultation with a handful of operators, WAND (and myself in particular) are putting together a proposal to develop an ETSI-compliant lawful intercept software tool, provided that this is still something that will be of use to people in the NZNOG community. We propose that the resulting software will be open-source and freely available to anyone, but that anyone who wants to see this project progress quickly should consider chipping in some funding to help cover the cost of having a dedicated programmer working on this for ~10-20 hours a week. The total funding pool doesn't need to be overly large: I am confident we will need much less than some of the numbers I've been hearing as the likely cost of a single piece of ETSI-compliant vendor kit. Of course, anyone who is providing funding would be consulted during the development process to ensure that the resulting software will be compatible with their particular network configuration. For now, I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who would like to use this software, regardless of whether you are able to fund the development or not. Replies can be on or off list. If we get enough interest, we would be looking at holding a meeting with anyone interested in funding later on this month (probably in Hamilton) to discuss the requirements for the software and how the funding model is going to work. The goal is to try and have the software in a deployable state (including being signed-off by police as being compliant) by April. I'm happy to take further questions or comments, either on or off list. Thanks, Shane Alcock Research Programmer WAND University of Waikato

Hi all Our CFP has now officially closed. We've received a lot of good submissions and will begin accepting talks soon. If you have missed the CFP close and still want to talk definitely let us know. However, we will first be accepting the on time submissions. We've added a page about the training events we're offering to our website - http://www.nznog.org/nznog18/nznog-2018-training . The Mikrotik training has some pre-requisite details on that page. Go Wireless are offering the required pre-requisite training in the near future. Links to Go Wireless' training page is on our training page. We're just waiting to lock in the Facebook training and maybe one other training session and we'll then open registrations. Apologies for the delays - we're chasing the other parties as much as we can. Cheers Dave (on behalf of the NZNOG Trust)

by Simon Lyall 24 Oct '17

24 Oct '17

There will be a one day mini conference on Linux Systems Administration held as part of linux.conf.au 2018 (held in Sydney, Australia on 22 - 26 January 2018). The organisers of the Systems Administration Miniconf would like to invite proposals for presentations to be delivered at the Miniconf, https://sysadmin.miniconf.org/cfp18.html (A copy of the CFP text is included below for your convenience.) Please forward this CFP to your colleagues, peers, social networks, and other relevant mailing lists. Please help by encouraging submissions from people you would like to hear present at this Miniconf. This is our 12th Sysadmin Miniconf at Linux.conf.au. Previous presentations can be found at the website: https://sysadmin.miniconf.org/ -=+ Presentation Topics +=- We welcome talks on best current practice, new developments in Systems Administration, cutting edge techniques and technologies, and ways to better manage Linux environments large and small. Topics for presentations could include (but are not limited to): * Systems Administration Best Practice * Virtualisation and Cloud Computing * Containers and orchestration * Sysadmin Administration in a "serverless" environment (FAAS) * TLS everywhere * Monitoring and metrics. Collection, storage and presentation * Infrastructure/Platform/Software as a Service (IAAS, PAAS, SAAS) * Networkng: IPv6, SDN (Software Defined Networking), performance * DevOps, Configuration Management and provisioning * Bootstrapping systems, Lifecycle Management * Dealing with BYOD * Backups in a virtual/distributed world * Troubleshooting techniques * DevOps and SysAdmin Culture * Web and Email management * Keeping legacy systems functioning * War stories from the "Real World" Presentations should be of a technical nature and speakers should assume that members of the audience have at least a couple of years experience in Unix/Linux administration. -=+ Format of Presentations +=- We are now seeking proposals for presentations at the mini-conference. We have openings for: 15-25 minute short presentations 5-10 minute "lightning talks" Please note, due to the single day available (and whole-LCA keynote before morning tea), we expect the majority of available timeslots to be 20 minutes or less, with possibly 1-2 slightly longer talks if there is space in the schedule. We have a general policy of accepting a high proportion of proposals but handing out relatively short timeslots. Please see previous years Miniconf schedules for examples of how the programme is organised. -=+ Submitting talks +=- Please note that in order to give a presentation or attend the Miniconf you must be registered (and paid up by the time the conference happens) for the main linux.conf.au conference. Presenting at the Miniconf does not entitle you to discounted or free registration at the main conference nor to priority with registration. Unfortunately the Miniconf has no budget for sponsorship of speakers. To submit a talk to the LCA2017 Sysadmin Miniconf, create an account on the LCA2018 website: https://linux.conf.au/dashboard create a speaker profile, and then select "New Proposal" and "System Administration Miniconf Presentation", or while logged into the LCA2018 site, go directly to: https://rego.linux.conf.au/proposals/submit/sysadmin-miniconf/ If you have a preferred length of your Short Presentation (15/20/25 minutes) or Lightning Talk (5/10 minutes) please use the Private Abstract field to describe what would work best for your talk. Otherwise we will pick a length that best suits the gaps in the programme as we put the final programme together. In some cases we maybe able to add a few extra minutes to a few Short Presentations if there is any spare time left in the programme. -=+ Dates and Deadlines +=- To encourage early submissions, priority (both of inclusion and scheduling) will be given to presentations submitted by 23:59 UTC on the 5th of November 2017. I f you have a good presentation idea, please let us know early, even if you need time to finalise the presentation abstract. Please indicate if you need an early confirmation to aid you in arranging time off work or travel; we will do our best to assist. 2017-11-05 - Deadline for early submissions 2017-12-03 - Deadline for submissions 2017-12-10 - Miniconf programme published 2018-01-22 - Sysadmin Miniconf held. -=+ Contact and Questions +=- Please see our website at https://sysadmin.miniconf.org for more information on the Miniconf, past presentations and presenting at it.

ntp.net.nz changes and update
by Josh Simpson 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

Hi NZNOG, Time for a ntp.net.nz update and upcoming changes. ntp1.ntp.net.nz needs to be migrated to a new router, this will mean the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses will change, currently scheduled for 2017-10-22. 202.46.191.123 to 202.46.177.18 2001:dce:4000:2::123 to 2001:dce:3:17a::18 ntp2.ntp.net.nz is still IPv4 only, we are working on restoring IPv6 once we have upstream connectivity sorted. ntp3.ntp.net.nz has had IPv6 turned back on, this has been operating with v6 since 2017-09-25. ntp4.ntp.net.nz has been live for over 14 months, IPv4 only, this is located in Christchurch. We are working with our upstream to have IPv6 connectivity. We have also been testing a number of the servers in pool.ntp.org in the New Zealand and Oceania Pools, this has been going well and we have seen a jump in NTP packets per second on each node from a max of ~7 to a max of ~1000. We plan to add the rest of the servers in shortly. Details of the service can be found at https://ntp.net.nz As always let us know if you have any queries.

We're interested in topics covering everything from introductory topics, to deeply technical subjects to risk and compliance. Presentation submissions are welcome from all interested parties, and we're especially keen to hear from the developers and other technical communities, not just the professional infosec nerds. We will not consider vendor pitches, commercial content or other such attempts to pedal your filthy, filthy wares.
