Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that some object(s) in NZRR database which you either maintain or are listed as to-be-notified have been added, deleted or changed. 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. --- PREVIOUS OBJECT: aut-num: AS24074 as-name: NZRR-AS24074 descr: NZ Post descr: WIX peering at '202.7.1.2' descr: see Citylink RT job #10237 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR import: from AS9439 accept ANY AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS9439 announce AS24074 notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: MatthewDa(a)datacom.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20070807 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: aut-num: AS24074 as-name: NZRR-AS24074 descr: NZ Post descr: WIX peering at '202.7.1.2' descr: see Citylink RT job #10237 descr: APE peering at '192.203.154.39' descr: see Citylink RT job #10506 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR import: from AS9439 accept ANY AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS9439 announce AS24074 import: from AS9560 accept ANY AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS9560 announce AS24074 notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: MatthewDa(a)datacom.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20070903 source: NZRR --- OBJECT BELOW CREATED: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS24074 descr: Route set advertised to AS9560 by New Zealand Post Limited - AS24074 members: 202.12.248.0/21^21-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: MatthewDa(a)datacom.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20070903 source: NZRR

Recent Xtra email changes
by Glen Eustace 29 Aug '07

29 Aug '07

We have just spent the last few days trying to solve an email issue, which I am starting to think might be related to the whole yahoo changes as the time scale is the same. One of our clients has their ADSL through Xtra but all their other services through us. Starting on Monday, they haven't been able to send any email, via smtp.xtra.co.nz. We are presuming, that their outbound addresses have contained their domain for which Xtra is neither the registrar nor the MX of. Debugging the issue has been particularly difficult as the customer is not very computer literate and English is not their natural language. We are unable to complete the diagnosis of the issue as the client has now taken Xtra's advice ( Xtra continually maintained that we were the problem - kind of difficult to see when the mail was coming nowhere near us ) and have now transferred their domain to Xtra. We had a similiar situation a while back with two client who were using Paradise in a similiar way. There issue was more related to not being able to have mailboxes on Paradise's servers anymore because Paradise didn't host the domain. The solution was for us to provide the mailboxes instead. I would be interested if this really is an isolated case, or has Xtra tightened up on their inbound mail policy for their own customers. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Glen and Rosanne Eustace GodZone Internet Services, a division of AGRE Enterprises Ltd.

Why is xtra.mail in AU?
by Don Gould 26 Aug '07

26 Aug '07

Doing some traceroutes to the xtra mail servers, it would appear they've moved all their mail handling to AU. Does anyone have any idea why? It would seem nuts to use international capacity to move all the mail from NZ --> AU --> NZ. Or am I (and others on some other lists) just missing something? Cheers Don
