Notification of NZRR Database changes

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:AS24181 descr: Route set advertised to AS9439 by TheLoop - AS24181 members: 202.49.20.0/22^22-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: geoffs(a)nayland.school.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20051027 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS24181 descr: advertised to AS9439 by The Loop - AS24181 members: 202.49.16.0/21^21-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: swebb(a)connectorsystems.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060418 source: NZRR

iiNet peering at APE and WIX via iHug
by Ian Henderson 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Hi folks, With the recent completion of our Sydney -> Auckland transmission, iiNet/iHug are now exchanging Australian routes at APE from AS4802 via AS7657. WIX connectivity is coming RSN. :) If there are any problems, please get in touch with our NOC via the usual methods (noc(a)ihug.co.nz, +64 9 359 2708, +61 8 9213 1313, INOC-DBA 4802). Rgds, - I. -- Ian Henderson, CCIE #14721 Senior Network Engineer, iiNet Limited

I did note they said they > want to put more money and support into the project as it was vital > to their business model. Summary: * Gifting services ($1.5M/yr in bandwidth) to a non profit foundation formed to run Fedora would cost Red Hat too much in tax. * Keeping track of engineer time would be too costly, and most Fedora work is done by Red Hat engineers. * The requirements of a non-profit under US law is that a certain percentage of their income needs to be from community donations, which they are unlikely to meet. They are moving back to having a community advisory board. Not much really changes. WLUG maintain a list of mirrors of Linux in NZ that anyone can edit; http://www.wlug.org.nz/NewZealandLinuxMirrors. It's a bit out of date, but with all the people here who run a mirror updating their own little bit, can get back in shape in no time. Craig

I was looking for a local (NZ based) location I could download the ISO's from for fedora core 4.. Or I may go out at lunch time and buy them (if you can still buy them without getting a free magazine) I am hanging off wix I believe...

Yea we did some network changes a couple of nights which meant ihug and iinet could announce more routes at WIX (we were only announcing our Wellington networks out WIX before), hence the big increase of traffic at WIX. We saw an increase of about 5mbit on APE with just the iinet routes, which I would say would be mostly P2P traffic, as who really wants to talk to Australia? :P Simon Allard ihug Limited P +64 9 962 9827 M +64 21 456 412 E simon.allard(a)staff.ihug.co.nz

Radio NZ + Parliament stream..
by Chris Hodgetts 04 Apr '06

04 Apr '06

I was just wondering if there is any stats on this stream that can be made public. I am not sure if its the source, or the stream but there seem to be a lots of audio artifacts in the stream, pop's and clicks and the like. Also the buffer time takes quite a bit - a lot longer than the National Radio stream, so I was wondering if there is more interest in it. (I am using mplayer in linux) Cheers.
