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: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS64598 descr: advertised to AS9439 by Araneo - AS64598 members: 210.48.109.104/29, 210.48.109.112/29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: jon.brewer(a)araneo.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20041028 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS64598 descr: advertised to AS9439 by Araneo Limited - AS64598 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: info(a)araneo.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060612 source: NZRR

Ok- It appears that allowing outbound UDP to port 123 doesn't cut it past the firewall.

I'm no weather forecaster, but it looks like the South Island and the lower half of the North Island are going to get hammered tonight. Not a good time to be on a boat anywhere ... or on land ... Jeremy

I've been a multi-talented network admin at Avonside Girls' High for the last 7 1/2 years, where I have taken the network from about 70 machines to a site-wide network of 300 machines and 10 servers. But I'm looking to move onwards and upwards. I've got a B.Sc in computer science, and a bunch of other qualifications as well as old-fashioned common sense.

They don't run diverse fibre. So a primary fibre failure wipes out their network. BCL is used for redundancy, but BCL doesn't have anywhere enough capacity to carry the capacity being used on the fibre. As a result, a fibre break will result in a large loss of service. I think it will be 2 to 5 years before sufficient fibre has been built to give stable redundant access. -----Original Message----- From: Drew Whittle [mailto:drew(a)earthlight.co.nz] Sent: Monday, 12 June 2006 10:28 a.m. To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: Re: [nznog] Anyone know why power is down?

Fwd: PHONE SERVICES AFFECTED BY POWER OUTAGES
by Ian McDonald 11 Jun '06

11 Jun '06

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: media(a)telecom-media.co.nz <media(a)telecom-media.co.nz> Date: Jun 12, 2006 10:47 AM Subject: PHONE SERVICES AFFECTED BY POWER OUTAGES To: ian.mcdonald(a)jandi.co.nz PHONE SERVICES AFFECTED BY POWER OUTAGES Telecom customers may be having problems accessing phone, Internet and data services in parts of Auckland due to a significant power outage in Auckland and Manukau City areas and some other parts of the country. The Telecom network currently has no power issues and all systems including Telecom Call Centres are operating on back-up generator and battery systems. Customers should be aware that if they are having problems accessing Telecom services, the problems are likely to be related to power outages, Telecom spokesperson John Goulter said today. Call centres are receiving a lot of calls, and Telecom is urging customers to listen to media updates on the power outages. We understand the main problem relates to a power substation at Otahuhu in Auckland, caused by the high winds and stormy weather sweeping the country. North Shore and Waitakere cities are unaffected. Power outages have also been affecting phone services in Northland, Asburton and Timaru.

Radio NZ Podcasts - Heads Up
by Webmaster 11 Jun '06

11 Jun '06

>From today we are offering some of our daily programmes as podcasts. These include Nine To Noon, Afternoons, and Nights. These are very popular programmes, and operators who do not peer with us in NZ may see an increase in traffic on their international circuits. Those operators may also see an increase in help desk calls as we are starting to get complaints about poor download rates at peak times. Our US server is well within capacity at these times, so we are referring complainants back to their own ISPs. As always, we are happy to provide this content locally to anyone that wants it via either WIX, APE, or PNIX. We do not charge for this service. If you prefer a direct connection to our servers this can be arranged, however there will be a cost. regards, Richard Hulse Radio NZ
