NOC status (was 2Degrees (SNAP) issues at 220 Queen Street this morning)
by Jamie Baddeley 05 Jul '16

05 Jul '16

I think it's a great idea. Would be a good paper/lightning talk from someone at the next NZNOG conference. The key issue is a standard API that network operators could present to an aggregator location like http://www.nznog.org/noc-list and for it to include info that operators need to know and care about. If some sort of API spec was published then at least folks would know what to aim for. Jeez, even a set of twitter handles to aggregate would be a start. But then we'd rely on Timmeh not breaking shit. Anyone up for talking about that sort of stuff in February?

Fw: [AusNOG] IPAM/DCIM - NetBox
by Michael Fincham 28 Jun '16

28 Jun '16

Hi folks, For those not also on AusNOG - we've been having a play with this today, and enjoying it considerably more than certain previous IPAM and DCIM solutions. About half of AusNOG seems to have turned up in the IRC channel, #netbox on Freenode. See you there. -Michael Begin forwarded message: Date: Tue Jun 28 14:07:32 EST 2016 From: Peter Carstairs <peter.carstairs+ausnog(a)gmail.com> To: ausnog(a)lists.ausnog.net Subject: [AusNOG] IPAM/DCIM - NetBox Hi noggers, Long time listener, first time caller. Thought people still use excel spreadsheets as their IPAM would find NetBox interesting and useful. https://github.com/digitalocean/netbox There's a live demo at http://netbox-demo01.packetlife.net/ username:admin password:demo Cheers, Pete

NZNOG17 to be held in Tauranga
by Jamie Baddeley 26 Jun '16

26 Jun '16

Hi Folks, On behalf of the Trustees, I'm very pleased to announce that from the 23rd-27th of January 2017 the conference will be held in the Bay of Heaps, or more specifically, Tauranga. The venue is http://www.trinitywharf.co.nz - A couple of the trustees have visited the venue and they report it is a great spot. I know I'm looking forward to seeing you all there. I encourage all of you that are planning on going to book accomodation now. Book early and book often. We'll have more information up on the website soon about accomodation options. We'll let you know when that's up. I'll say it again, book now. At the venue, down the road, your mates place, whatever - it's the Bay of Plenty in January. You get the idea. For those of you out there seeking to sponsor this conference, then please get in touch with us via sponsorship(a)nznog.org (subject: sponsor)- we'd love to hear from you. For our good friends and sponsors from previous years, I'll be getting in touch with you next week. As always we sincerely appreciate your support. Now that we've got the venue sorted out we'll be sorting out registrations and all the rest of it which brings me to: --------- *Program Committee:* Once again we'll also need to assemble a program committee. Eligible PC candidates are those who have attended NZNOG conferences in the recent past, have broad technical knowledge of Internet operations, and have reasonable familiarity with the format of NZNOG conferences. PC members are expected to work actively to solicit content for the event and review submissions for technical merit. What the PC do and come up with is the most important thing for the whole conference. If you are interested in joining the PC send a brief note to "trustees at nznog.org". The note should include affiliation (if any) and contact details, and a brief description of why you would make a good addition to the PC. PC members receive complimentary registration for the event. ------------ Finally, can I just add that in what seems to be an ongoing climate of consolidation and acquisition, now is the time for all operators to get together to discuss what smart new things need to happen to keep moving the packets faster and better. There is always a better way. Cheers Jamie Baddeley on behalf of the NZNOG Trust.

Hi All, Anyone aware of a major fibre cut today in NZ that may have taken UFB services down for several ISPs? A certain ISP is claiming "all ISPs affected" but we haven't seen any issues with the carriers we use. *Jesse Archer* *General Manager*Full Flavour *p. *07 577 0099 *ddi*. 07 281 1391 *s*.
