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: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS24324 descr: advertised to AS9560 by Broadcast Communications Ltd - AS24324 members: 124.157.64.0/19^19-29, 202.49.128.0/21^21-29, 218.185.224.0/21^21-29, 202.27.83.0/24^24-29, 202.36.75.0/24^24-29, 202.36.154.0/24^24-29, 202.37.168.0/24^24-29, 202.49.183.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: smc(a)bclnz.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060810 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS24324 descr: advertised to AS9560 by BCL - AS24324 members: 124.157.64.0/19^19-29, 202.49.128.0/21^21-29, 218.185.24.0/21^21-29, 202.27.83.0/24^24-29, 202.36.75.0/24^24-29, 202.36.154.0/24^24-29, 202.37.168.0/24^24-29, 202.49.183.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: leon.chang(a)bclnz.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060911 source: NZRR

Why is snap not peering with the Auckland peering exchange? Damn slow exchanging data with some clients when using snap internet through the global gateway compared to when using an ISP who use APE. Regards, Ernest Cunningham

NZNOG 07 - Call for Participation and Papers
by Simon Lyall 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

NZNOG 07 - Call for Participation and Papers The next conference of the New Zealand Network Operators' Group is to be held in Palmerston North, New Zealand between 31 January and 2 February 2007. Our host is Inspire.net and the venue is to be at Massey University's campus. NZNOG meetings provide opportunities for the exchange of technical information and discussion of issues relating to the operation and support of network services, with particular emphasis on New Zealand. The conference is low priced and has a strong technical focus with the aim and history of getting a strong turnout of technical personal from New Zealand Internet orientated companies. Conference Overview ------------------- NZNOG 2007 will consist of one day Special Interest Group ( SIG ) Meetings followed by two days of conference presentations. There will also be opportunity for more informal and small lightening talks. These are typically around five minutes long and are organised closer to the actual conference. Important Dates --------------- Call for Papers opens: 5 September 2006 Deadline for speaker submissions: 20 October 2006 Responses to speaker submissions: 27 October 2006 Draft program published: 1 November 2006 Final program published: 18 December 2006 NZNOG 2007 Conference: 31 January - 2 February 2007 SIG Meetings ------------ The first day of the conference is arranged as parallel tracks to cover subject material which is of interest to particular groups of attendees. Proposals are requested for workshops, tutorials and other appropriate special-interest meetings of interest to Network Operators. Topics which have been successful in the past, or have been requested for this year are: * Advanced BGP gubbins * IPV6 implementation * Service Provider wireless networking * VoIP * BIND and DNSSEC * MPLS and high performance IP backbone routing * Systems Administration. The program committee will consider proposals for tutorials in any of these or new areas. There is a single day of SIGs with up to five running concurrently. If you have an idea for a tutorial subject that is not listed, please feel free to submit it to us. Conference Presentations ------------------------ The main conference program for 2007 will be made up of two days with a single stream where possible. Presentations don't need to fit any particular fixed length and can be from 30 minutes to 3 hours in length. NZNOG conferences have traditionally spanned the entire operational spectrum, and then some. Proposals for conference presentations are invited for virtually any topic with a degree of relevance to the NZNOG community. Past years' talks have included the following: - Internet exchange operations - Global anycast networks and the building thereof - Peering, peering, and peering - Network security - 10GB ethernet operations - Advanced networks in NZ - Current Internet research in NZ - Wireless networking - QOS over carrier networks - Content distribution networks and media streaming If you are interested in submitting a talk please fill out the questions at then end of this document and email them to talks(a)nznog.org . Submission Guidelines --------------------- When considering a presentation or SIG, remember that the NZNOG audience is mainly comprised of technical network operators and engineers with a wide range of experience levels from beginners to multi-year experience. There is a strong orientation to offer core skills and basic knowledge in the SIGs and to address issues relevant to the day-to-day operations of ISPs and network operators in the conference sessions. The inclusion of a title, bio, topic, abstract, and slides with proposals is not compulsory but each will help us determine the quality of your proposal and increase the likelihood it will be accepted. Final slides are to be provided by 22 January 2007. Note: While the majority of speaking slots will be submitted by 20 October 2006, a limited number of slots may be available for presentations that are exceptionally timely, important, or of critical operational importance. The NZNOG conference is a TECHNICAL conference so marketing and commercial content is NOT allowed within the program. The program committee is charged with maintaining the technical standard of NZNOG conferences, and will therefore not accept inappropriate materials. It is expected that the presenter be a technical person and not a sales or marketing person. The audience is extremely technical and unforgiving, and expects that the speakers are themselves very knowledgeable. All sessions provide time for questions, so presenters should expect technical questions and be prepared to deliver insightful and technically deep responses. Funding and Support ------------------- NZNOG conferences are community run and funded events that try to keep the cost to attendees as low as possible so generally we are unable to pay the travel costs of speakers. There is a limited amount of funding available to international speakers. Conference presenters will not have to pay any registration fee for the day they are presenting. Discounts for SIG and lightning talk presenters may be available but are not automatic. Lightning talks --------------- Lightning talks are short talks/presentations that last no more than 10 minutes. This is a good opportunity to get your pet topic out there or perhaps to get some experience with presenting without having to go to a full talk. At NZNOG'07 it is planned that there will be at least one hour long lightning talk session. Sponsors -------- There are opportunities remaining for organisations to sponsor various aspects of the NZNOG meeting. Please contact sponsorship(a)nznog.org for more information Contact ------- Website * www.nznog.org General Enquiries * info(a)nznog.org Talks and Papers * talks(a)nznog.org Talk Proposals -------------- Please send all talk proposals (including lightning talks) to talks(a)nznog.org along with the requested information. Questions regarding talks can be sent to the same address. Sponsorship may be available for a limited number of overseas speakers to attend the conference, please indicate if you require assistance with travel and/or accommodation. Author's Full Name: Author's Email Address: Author's affiliation: Author's short biography: Title of Talk: Abstract: Length of talk: Please provide details if a version of this talk has previously been given: Will travel and accommodation assistance be required:

NZNOG Conference 2007
by Donald Neal 24 Aug '06

24 Aug '06

During and after this year's successful conference, a number of suggestions were made to organisers about the way in which the next NZNOG conference could be organised. After consideration of a number of generous offers to host the conference, the organising committee have opted to retain a stand-alone conference structure, but once again to try a new venue. Next year's New Zealand Network Operators' Group Conference is scheduled to run from 31 January to 2 February 2007 in Palmerston North. Our hosts are Inspire.net (http://www.inspire.net.nz/) . This will be the first time the conference has been in Palmerston North, and the first time we've been hosted by an ISP. The venue is to be at Massey University's campus. A Call for Presenters should be issued later this month. Please form an orderly queue ... - Donald Neal Donald Neal |"I can marry anyone I please!
