Contacting Microsoft regarding Domain Names
by lennon＠orcon.net.nz 03 Apr '16

03 Apr '16

I tried contacting Microsoft Regarding .kiwi.nz domain a number of times but I have had no response from them and the problem has not been resolved. (This is over multiple years and multiple complaints) (Its only been 4 years) The Problem is.... I own www.kiwi.nz. This shouldn’t actually cause any problems except with bing webmaster tools. (Most other people including Google get it right within a few days/weeks) . Yes at the start I expected a problem but seeing all the bing stats for the thousands of other .kiwi.nz domains isn’t interesting for me. I expect people who own other domains like www.maori.nz and www.geek.nz etc would have the same issue as well maybe but you never know. Craig

NZNOG Trustees update
by Gerard Creamer 30 Mar '16

30 Mar '16

Hello NZNOG, We have some new Trustees to help us ensure that the NZNOG goodness perpetuates into the future. A big welcome to (in descending alphabetical order by the last letter in their first name) Barry Murphy, Jesse Archer, and Dave Mill. Remember to pass on your [congratulations|commiserations] next time you’re dealing with them. This means that we’re well stocked with Trustees as we prepare for NZNOG 2017. Our full roster is (in ascending numeric order by the second digit in their phone numbers): Jamie Baddeley Gerard Creamer Richard Nelson Dave Mill Jesse Archer Barry Murphy We’re working on venue options now, and will announce something when there’s something to announce. NZNOG is held in the last usable week in January, so that’ll be 23-27 January 2017. A huge thanks to all of the past Trustees - you have all done such fantastic work setting up solid structures and processes (with documentation!) that our jobs are less chaotic than I recall from pre-Trust days. Cheers, Gerard (NZNOG Trustee)

by Dave Mill 29 Mar '16

Hi all Last week there was a formal announcement of our new, community run internet exchange. It hasn't made it to NZNOG yet so passing this along. See below for details. Cheers Dave ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Joe Wooller <joe(a)akl-ix.nz> [image: page1image408] [image: page1image576] MEDIA RELEASE 17 March 2016 IAA supports the launch of NZ Internet Exchange Inc as foundation member “Following the overwhelming success of the Auckland Internet Exchange (AKL-IX) trial conducted by the Internet Association of Australia (IAA), operators of IX Australia, we are pleased to announce the launch of the New Zealand Internet Exchange Incorporated (NZIX Inc),” said Chairman Davey Goode. “Through the support of the team at IAA we have developed a member governed, neutral peering exchange which will provide easier and more cost effective interconnects for the internet community of New Zealand. “Moving forward the NZIX Inc committee will take on overseeing the management and growth of the exchange with the ongoing support of IAA.” “As a founding member of NZ-IX Inc we are committed to providing ongoing support to the exchange growth,” said IAA President Tom Berryman. “The development of an independent and neutral peering exchange in New Zealand benefits the internet community in the region by introducing more peering options and services, as well as our existing membership and peering base at home in Australia.” The AKL-IX exchange has been in a trial period for 12 months, and the exchange will commence charging for services from 1 July 2016. We are now inviting all our current peers to sign up as members of NZIX Inc by visiting https://portal.akl-ix.nz/ and ordering the required port size, 1GB or 10GB, both sizes will be charged at $350 NZD per month (excluding GST). NZIX looks forward to the support of our existing peers, and welcomes new peers to contact us to join.

Founded in 1995, as the Western Australian Internet Association (WAIA), the Association changed its name in early 2016 to better reflect our membership growth. IAA representatives are available for comment on a range of issues regarding the internet including, but not limited to, internet infrastructure, internet technologies and the use of the Internet in business. IAA is keen to provide independent, balanced information and impartial advice for Internet users including businesses, parents, kids, schools, seniors, the media, law enforcement and mobile users. For more information on IAA please visit our website www.internet.asn.au About IX-Australia and Peering IX-Australia is a service provided by the Internet Association of Australia to Corporate members. It is the longest running and lowest cost Internet Exchange in Australia. The Queensland (QLD-IX), Victorian (VIC-IX), South Australian (SA-IX), New South Wales (NSW-IX) and Australian Capital Territory (ACT-IX) services have built on the success of the WA Internet Exchange (WA-IX). IAA has also established a peering point in New Zealand (AKL-IX). The peering service provides direct, low latency and high speed connectivity between members at a fraction of the cost of using a typical upstream provider. The members of the exchange point benefit by lowering their operating costs while providing a better internet experience to their end customers. IAA highly recommends peers join PeeringDB to facilitate the exchange of information related to peering. Visit www.peeringdb.com for more information.

fx4.wix.nzix.net (202.7.1.176) looking a bit busted
by Michael Fincham 15 Mar '16

15 Mar '16

Hi folks, Vocus is looking in to this however if you're peered with the WIX route servers you might want to check what prefixes you're learning with 202.7.1.176 as the next hop - we're seeing packet loss across the WIX to that peer. fx3.wix.nzix.net (.175) looks to be fine still :) -- Michael Fincham
