IANA IPv4 allocations and bogon update: 41/8
by Rob Thomas 13 Apr '05

13 Apr '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- [ Apologies to those of you who receive this note in multiple forums. ] Hi, team. The numerous Team Cymru bogon projects have been updated as of 13 APR 2005 to reflect the following IANA allocation made on 12 APR 2005: 041/8 Apr 05 AfriNIC (whois.afrinic.net) IANA allocations change over time, so please check regularly to ensure you have the latest filters if you are not using the bogon BGP feed(s). We do announce updates to the bogon projects to sundry lists, such as the bogon-announce list. We can not stress this point strongly enough - these allocations change. If you do not adjust your filters, you will be unable to access perhaps large portions of the Internet. Worse yet, you may end up blocking access for people who transit through you. Please do not apply any filters or blocks to your network without carefully considering the ramifications of doing so. As a point of reference, the Team Cymru master Bogon Reference Page can be found here: <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/> A quick summary of the documents and projects that have been updated include the following: HTTP The Bogon List - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/bogon-list.html> The Text Bogon Lists - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/bogon-bn-nonagg.txt> - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/bogon-bn-agg.txt> Secure BIND Template - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-bind-template.html> Secure IOS Template (Cisco) - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-ios-template.html> Secure BGP Template (Cisco) - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-bgp-template.html> Secure JUNOS Template (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-template.htm> Secure JUNOS BGP Template (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-bgp-template.htm> Ingress Prefix Filter Templates, Loose and Strict (Cisco) - <ftp://ftp-eng.cisco.com/cons/isp/security/Ingress-Prefix-Filter- Templates/> Ingress Prefix Filter Template, Loose (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-isp-prefix-filter- loose.htm> Ingress Prefix Filter Template, Strict (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-isp-prefix-filter- strict.htm> BGP Bogon route-server for AUTOMATED updates of bogon filters - All bogon route-server peers have already received the appropriate BGP prefix updates. - <http://www.cymru.com/BGP/bogon-rs.html> RADb fltr-unallocated fltr-martian fltr-bogons - <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/index.html#radb> RIPE NCC fltr-unallocated fltr-martian fltr-bogons - <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/index.html#ripe> DNS Bogon (bogons.cymru.com) zone - <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/index.html#dns> Monitoring Bogon prefix monitoring - <http://www.cymru.com/BGP/robbgp-bogon.html> Bogus ASN monitoring - <http://www.cymru.com/BGP/asnbogusrep.html> Please feel free to contact Team Cymru <team-cymru(a)cymru.com> with any comments, questions, or concerns.

DNS + IPv6
by Philip D'Ath 10 Apr '05

10 Apr '05

I'm doing some work with IPv6 at the moment, and one of the upcoming tasks I'm going to need to do is get a couple of IPv6 DNS servers online. Can someone tell me if the NZ SRS supports IPv6 glue records? Specifically, can I register the AAAA NS records?

Re: [nznog] Trade Me peering via the APE and WIX route servers
by Andy Linton 07 Apr '05

07 Apr '05

Trademe are announcing their network to both APE and WIX. Their preference is to route packets via the WIX as they're based in Wellington so we've path stuffed the APE announcement so that dual APE/WIX homed entities favour the WIX. This is also so that paths can be symmetric as return packets from Trademe will favour the WIX where they can. Some of you who peer at the APE and WIX may still be favouring announcements from your upstream provider and in many cases these will be links that you pay charges which are related to usage in some way. If I were in your shoes I'd be constructing some BGP policy tweaks to favour APE routes over routes from a link I was paying for regardless of AS path. I've added two community strings to the announcements of 202.21.128.0/24 via AS24078 which may help: 24078:9439 announced via WIX 24078:9560 announced via APE

Notification of NZRR Database changes
by NZRR Database Notifications 07 Apr '05

07 Apr '05

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: aut-num: AS24078 as-name: NZRR-AS24078 descr: TradeMe descr: APE peering at '192.203.154.18' descr: see Citylink RT job #2209 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR import: from AS9560 accept ANY AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS9560 announce AS24078 notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: asjl(a)citylink.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20050408 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: aut-num: AS24078 as-name: NZRR-AS24078 descr: TradeMe descr: APE peering at '192.203.154.18' descr: see Citylink RT job #2209 descr: WIX peering at '202.7.1.67' descr: see Citylink RT job #359 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR import: from AS9439 accept ANY AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS9439 announce AS24078 import: from AS9560 accept ANY AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS9560 announce AS24078 notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: asjl(a)citylink.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20050408 source: NZRR

Seminar on UWB
by Donald Neal 05 Apr '05

05 Apr '05

This announcement is posted on behalf of the Ministry for Economic Development. - - - - - Dear industry colleagues, Ultra Wide Band (UWB) is a new wireless technology developed to transmit large amounts of data over very short distances. UWB devices are designed to operate at very low power levels, enabling them in theory, to share spectrum with traditionally licensed services over a wide range of frequencies without adverse impact to those services. Potential applications of UWB are high-speed wireless networking in the workplace or at home, ground penetrating radar for geological surveys and search and rescue, wall penetrating imaging in construction, vehicular radar for collision avoidance, medical imaging, and hand-held communication and measurement systems. The Ministry is in the process of preparing an engineering discussion paper seeking submissions from the industry and stakeholders, on spectrum allocation and technical standards for UWB devices. In conjuction with this paper, the Ministry is planning to hold seminars in Auckland and Wellington to clarify and discuss issues raised. The details of the seminars are given below: Auckland 10 am Friday 15 April 2005 Stamford Plaza 22 Albert St, Auckland Central Wellington 10 am Wednesday 20 April 2005 Rangi Marie Room 1 Te Papa Cable st Wellington Confirmation of your attendance together with your choice of venue should be sent to <mailto:radiospectrum(a)med.govt.nz> mailto:radiospectrum(a)med.govt.nz Please feel free to circulate this message to any additional persons who you feel may have an interest in this topic.

RFC1918 Addresses in routing paths
by Jonathan Brewer 04 Apr '05

Hi Folks, I am wondering about the etiquette of reporting RFC1918 addresses back to hosts performing a traceroute. Example below: Hostname 1. ourhost.ourprovider.net.nz 2. f3-0-2.core1.wlg.ourprovider.net.nz 3. f0-0-4.core3.wlg.ourprovider.net.nz 4. f4-0-5.core2.akl.ourprovider.net.nz 5. g1-0-1396.u12.brfd.otherprovider.net.nz 6. g1-0-1043.u12.brh.otherprovider.net.nz 7. 10.65.32.1 8. 10.65.32.250 9. 10.69.0.2 10. a12-3-23.u21.tar.otherprovider.net.nz 11. fa7-4-1042.bigrouter.otherprovider.net.nz 12. otherhost.otherprovider.net.nz Any comments on this practice?
