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:AS17746 descr: advertised to AS9560 by Orcon Internet Ltd - AS17746 members: 60.234.0.0/16^16-29, 202.150.96.0/19^19-29, 203.99.0.0/19^19-29, 202.126.192.0/20^20-29, 203.96.192.0/20^20-29, 219.88.128.0/20^20-29, 219.88.240.0/20^20-29, 210.54.56.0/21^21-29, 210.54.148.0/22^22-29, 210.55.12.0/22^22-29, 202.37.82.0/23^23-29, 202.0.151.0/24^24-29, 202.36.170.0/24^24-29, 202.37.19.0/24^24-29, 202.37.173.0/24^24-29, 202.37.194.0/24^24-29, 202.49.187.0/24^24-29, 202.49.233.0/24^24-29, 202.49.246.0/24^24-29, 202.50.164.0/24^24-29, 202.50.167.0/24^24-29, 202.50.246.0/24^24-29, 202.174.160.0/24^24-29, 203.86.200.0/24^24-29, 210.54.12.0/24^24-29, 210.55.1.0/24^24-29, 210.55.8.0/24^24-29, 210.55.199.0/24^24-29, 202.27.188.128/25^25-29, 210.55.0.0/25^25-29, 210.55.180.128/26^26-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: karl.skewes(a)team.orcon.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060727 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS17746 descr: advertised to AS9560 by Orcon Internet Ltd - AS17746 members: 60.234.0.0/16^16-29, 202.150.96.0/19^19-29, 203.99.0.0/19^19-29, 202.126.192.0/20^20-29, 203.96.192.0/20^20-29, 219.88.128.0/20^20-29, 219.88.240.0/20^20-29, 210.54.56.0/21^21-29, 210.54.148.0/22^22-29, 210.55.12.0/22^22-29, 202.37.82.0/23^23-29, 202.0.151.0/24^24-29, 202.36.170.0/24^24-29, 202.37.19.0/24^24-29, 202.37.78.0/24^24-29, 202.37.173.0/24^24-29, 202.37.194.0/24^24-29, 202.49.187.0/24^24-29, 202.49.233.0/24^24-29, 202.49.246.0/24^24-29, 202.50.164.0/24^24-29, 202.50.167.0/24^24-29, 202.50.246.0/24^24-29, 202.174.160.0/24^24-29, 203.86.200.0/24^24-29, 210.54.12.0/24^24-29, 210.55.1.0/24^24-29, 210.55.8.0/24^24-29, 210.55.199.0/24^24-29, 202.27.188.128/25^25-29, 210.55.0.0/25^25-29, 210.55.180.128/26^26-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: karl.skewes(a)team.orcon.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060728 source: NZRR

Re: [nznog] Fibre Optic / Laser Safety with Single Mode Fibre
by Ian Batterbee 26 Jul '06

26 Jul '06

#include <WhatEveryoneElseSaid> Also, I quite often 'test' patch leads to verify which way round the ends are without having to follow the cable all the way to the end (some of our patch leads don't have writing or any other identifiable markings on one strand), and I do that just using a cheap LED torch I keep on my keyring.. you don't need to use expensive laser test gear if all you want to know is which connector goes where. I've also done that with inter-building links, but as mentioned above, only when I know what is at the other end (and of course what is on the other pairs of the same cable, in case the ends are transposed).

SMTP Server Callbacks, the Devil or a Godsend?
by Craig Whitmore 26 Jul '06

26 Jul '06

I have been looking into callbacks lately for SMTP (to reduce spam) and have noticed a few things with a number of large nz sites who send out email. A number of sites send from email addresses which don't exist. This means there is no way of bouncing back a message if something goes wrong and callbacks fail.. Large site such as trademe.co.nz,ferrit.co.nz,pxt.vodafone.co.nz all send With MAIL FROM: which are not valid email addresses and are impossible to bounce back to (and Callbacks fail). There are a few other small ones I've noticed.. but overall callbacks work fine. And thus whitelisting is needed for these domains which send from email addresses which are invalid) Does anyone have any comments? Suggestions? Why callbacks are the devil (or otherwise)? Why callbacks work really well..Anyone use using them? who they had to whitelist if they used them in NZ? Note: also noted there are a number of mail servers in nz which don't accept bounces at all (even to valid users) :-( rfc-ignorant.com anyone? Thanks Craig

Re: [nznog] Xtra filter email with blank From, To or Subject
by Duncan Turnbull 26 Jul '06

26 Jul '06

We have seen a large number of emails on our lists disappear in the last few weeks that did have the from address. Nothing turned up and they didn't appear in the spam folders. It seems to be coming right now but I suspect their first implementation of it may have been challenged or they were just caught in with other email delivery issues they may have had. Cheers Duncan
