AirNZ SPF Issues
by Pieter De Wit 11 Sep '17

11 Sep '17

Hey NZNOG’rs, I know that this is not “nice to do” but I have tried the contact centre - the issue is logged but I doubt it will get to the right people ? AirNZ currently has 2 SPF entries and this is causing emails to fail: dig TXT airnz.co.nz | grep spf1 airnz.co.nz. 21301 IN TXT "v=spf1 a ..." airnz.co.nz. 21301 IN TXT "v=spf1 …" Please fix :) I have error logs going back to the 8th of Aug, if that helps ? I don’t know what other domains this was done on. Cheers, Pieter

KSK rollover timeline and how to check if your systems are ready
by Save Vocea 11 Sep '17

11 Sep '17

Dear NZNOG list members, I’d appreciate if this is shared through your network /organizations and to check if your systems won’t be affected by the following change. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is planning to roll, or change, the “top” pair of cryptographic keys used in the Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) protocol, commonly known as the Root Zone KSK. This will be the first time the KSK has been changed since it was initially generated in 2010, and is considered an important security step, in much the same way that regularly changing passwords is considered a prudent practice by any Internet user. What does that mean? Rolling the KSK means generating a new cryptographic public and private key pair and distributing the new public component to parties who operate validating resolvers, including: Internet Service Providers; enterprise network administrators and other Domain Name System (DNS) resolver operators; DNS resolver software developers; system integrators; and hardware and software distributors who install or ship the root's "trust anchor." The KSK is used to cryptographically sign the Zone Signing Key (ZSK), which is used by the Root Zone Maintainer to DNSSEC-sign the root zone of the Internet's DNS. Why do you need to prepare? Currently, 25% of global Internet users, or 750 million people, use DNSSEC-validating resolvers that could be affected by the KSK rollover. If these validating resolvers do not have the new key when the KSK is rolled, end users relying on those resolvers will encounter errors and be unable to access the Internet. How to know if your systems are up-to-date? ICANN is offering a test bed for operators or any interested parties to confirm that their systems handle the automated update process correctly. Check to make sure your systems are ready by visiting: http://go.icann.org/KSKtest. What is the timeline for this process? October 27, 2016: KSK rollover process begins as the new KSK is generated. July 11, 2017: Publication of new KSK in DNS. September 19, 2017: Size increase for DNSKEY response from root name servers. October 11, 2017: New KSK begins to sign the root zone key set (the actual rollover event). January 11, 2018: Revocation of old KSK. March 22, 2018: Last day the old KSK appears in the root zone. August 2018: Old key is deleted from equipment in both ICANN Key Management Facilities. More information about the root zone KSK rollover is available here: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/ksk-rollover. Thank you, Save vocea VP, Global Stakeholder Engagement, Oceania ICANN

TICSA and lawful intercept
by Dave Mill 06 Sep '17

06 Sep '17

Hi all So, probably a bit a touchy subject this one but here goes.. If you are a network operator and you have more than 4000 customers in my understanding you need to have full interceptions capabilities. (I'm not a lawyer, etc, etc) This is more than just being 'interception ready'. http://www.police.govt.nz/advice/businesses-and-organisations/ticsa/interce… This will mean having a mediation system and being able to produce intercept data in the ETSI standard - again, as far as I know. What are companies/organisations out there doing about this? Is there a nice open source solution out there for this? (I haven't found one yet) Are people putting their heads in the sand and praying they never get served a warrant? Is everyone just shelling out hundreds of thousands of dollars on a vendor LI solutions? What network kit are people integrating with LI in NZ? And note, the last paragraph on the URL I linked above reads: "Can I share interception capability resources? Network operators may co-ordinate, share or contract for services (equipment or staff) in order to meet the interception capability requirements in the Act. However, it remains the responsibility of the network operator to ensure that any such arrangement does not affect any obligations that apply under the Act. Before entering into any such arrangement a network operator must notify the Director of the GCSB." Replies on or off list welcomed. Cheers Dave (AS17705)

SPF for Spark Business Mail
by Matthew McTague 22 Aug '17

22 Aug '17

Hi Noggers, Hoping to find some help from someone knowledgeable here as I can't get any answers through normal channels. I'm trying to find the correct SPF record (include FQDN or IP address ranges) for customers sending email via Spark Business Hub Mail. Have tried through normal support channels (to be told the SPF record is commercially sensitive) and have tried normal escalation paths. Anyone with knowledge on the subject, please contact me (perhaps if the correct SPF record can be a reply on-list, so everyone has it on record. It would help the NZNOG community as a whole.) Warm Regards, [https://www.vetta.tech/sig/vetta_signature_logo.png] <http://www.vetta.tech> [https://www.vetta.tech/sig/facebook_signature_icon.png] <http://www.facebook.com/VettaTech> [https://www.vetta.tech/sig/twitter_signature_icon.png] <http://www.twitter.com/VettaTech> [https://www.vetta.tech/sig/linkedin_signature_icon.png] <http://www.linkedin.com/company/2840435> [https://www.vetta.tech/sig/partnersilver.png] [https://s3.amazonaws.com/htmlsig-assets/spacer.gif] Matthew McTague / Systems & Network Engineer matthew(a)vetta.tech<mailto:matthew(a)vetta.tech> / DDI: +64 3 222 6013 Vetta Technologies Ltd 0800 4 VETTA / +64 3 683 9090 Level 3, Cnr Stafford & George Streets, Timaru 16 Pope Street, Christchurch East Tamaki, Auckland PO Box 923, Timaru www.vetta.tech<http://www.vetta.tech> This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Vodafone outage in Karori/Highbury/Aro Valley (Wellington)
by Joel Wirāmu Pauling 22 Aug '17

22 Aug '17

Just spoke with Vodafone NOC - there was is planned upgrade work going on Karori prod node. Whatever it is seems to have taken out Highbury CMNT network. The Public facing Network status meter however shows all good - when there has been an ongoing outage since around 0100. Change window is meant to close at 0300 so hopefully it resumes before then. I am a little annoyed when there is planned work but the Public reporting tool isn't updated or fed by these things. -Joel

Multiple connections to UFB in server room
by Paul Adshead 10 Aug '17

10 Aug '17

Hi guys. A shared server room has an active UFB service for another business on the floor. We want UFB service to our office too. Is an additional ONT install needed (as I'm being told by <ISP>)? Or, can Chorus just enable another port on the existing ONT and have and then run a network cable out to both routers from one ONT? Is the ONT capable of multiple PPPOE sessions to the offsite hardware? Or is this just creating a problem that doesn't need to exist (- ie say yes to the second ONT install)? Many thanks, Paul Adshead. 021890258
