Suggestions for a lab switch?
by Lloyd Parkes 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Hi all, I’ve run out of port capacity in my lab, so I need another switch. Since it’s a lab, I want a brand of switch that I don’t already have so that I can do more testing. Since it’s a brand I don’t already have, I don’t really know what to get. What I want/need is: managed (somehow, SNMP at least) gigabit (I have lots of 100Mb thanks) rack mount around $600 (so, an SMB class switch I guess) ~24 ports What I don’t want/need (I have these already): obsolete Cisco IOS devices Mikrotik Netgear D-Link a lemon PoE Please reply off list with suggestions of devices to either buy or avoid. Thanks, Lloyd

Whole of Domain (.nz) 2016 Web Harvest
by Jay Gattuso 22 Dec '15

22 Dec '15

Hi Noggers, Further to previous emails (6th Nov 2015), we are all set to kick off the web harvest in the new year. We’ll be starting the crawl on the 11th Jan 2016, and expect to be crawling for approximately 3 to 4 weeks. The crawlers will be using the user agent string ““NLNZ_IAHarvester2016” so if you do need to set any specific rules for our crawlers this would be the identifier to use. The robots.txt and Robots META tag exclusions on crawled sites will be obeyed with some minor exceptions:- We’ll strictly obey all rules that relate to the user agent (apart from slash pages, which will be harvested regardless). Facebook and some other curated social media sites will be harvested regardless of their Robots.txt. The Crawl Notification (Notice to Webmasters) page is located at on the Library’s web site at: http://natlib.govt.nz/publishers-and-authors/web-harvesting/domain-harvest. If you have any questions or concerns about the harvest, please drop me a line. I’ll watch for email at various points over the Christmas break, and back in the office on the 4th Jan to address any questions/concerns. Best, Jay Jay Gattuso | Digital Preservation Analyst | Preservation, Research and Consultancy National Library of New Zealand | Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa PO Box 1467 Wellington 6140 New Zealand | +64 (0)4 474 3064 jay.gattuso(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:jay.gattuso(a)natlib.govt.nz>

NZNog/Apricot
by Patrick Jordan-Smith 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

Hi guys and mostly the NZNOG trustees (whoever they are at the moment.) I remember seeing a while back that some funds were going to be made available for helping people fund the cost of attending Apricot (since it's taking the place of the 2016 conference.) Did anything ever eventuate out of this? The cost for Apricot is significantly higher than the usual nznog cost plus hotels etc if you're not from Auckland. Would be good to see some clarity on this given that early bird tickets are now closed and not everyone has a corporate to fund their attendance. Even if its a "its not happening" comment that would be still helpful. Alternately have the trustees talked to the Apricot organisers at all about possibilities? Thanks, Pat

Re: [nznog] "updating" stats.labs.apnic.net
by George Michaelson 07 Dec '15

the stats overwhelmingly come from HTML5 advert placements in google, which predominantly but not solely are placed over youtube videos. Approximately 5-6m placements per day. -george On 8 December 2015 at 04:42, Pieter De Wit <pieter(a)insync.za.net> wrote: > Hi Guys, > > > > Does anyone know where stats.labs.apnic.net get's it's stats from ?
