Contribution for the IANA Stewardship Transition proposal
by Elly Tawhai 07 Sep '15

07 Sep '15

Hi NZNOG Community, The Numbers community is one of the key operational communities called on to develop its own proposal for the IANA stewardship transition. The below video relates to IANA Stewardship Transition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-x2nQxyDrU How you can contribute: ----------------------- 1. The CRISP team is seeking community response to its statement on the ICG plan, as announced at: https://www.nro.net/pipermail/ianaxfer/2015-August/000642.html The CRISP statement provides an excellent summary of the ICG proposal and how it satisfies the expectations expressed by the Numbers community. 2. The NRO has also recently called for community support of the ICG proposals, at: https://www.nro.net/news/iana-stewardship-transition-coordination-group-icg… 3. We encourage you to send an email to the ICG (public-comments(a)ianacg.org) to express your support for the ICG’s transition proposal. Kind regards, Elly APNIC

SDN APE, and IX stats from Citylink
by Tim Hoffman 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Greetings, There was some discussion over the last couple of years with the NZNOG community at conferences and on the mailing list about Citylink doing a SDN based IX. This was to include with it Citylink releasing statistics of the aggregated traffic over their IX - a measure (published by most IXs) that many use to decide if it's worth connecting to an IX. Given the public nature of this discussion so far, and the fact that it's died off, can a representative of Citylink please confirm to the list; 1/ Is there an intention to move to some sort of SDN driven IX still, and if so what the timeframe for this will be? If this project has been abandoned, how will the IXs be developed in place of this project? 2/ Do they have any intention to publish an aggregated traffic on their IXs, and if so what the timeframe for this will be? I am sure many of us in the peering community will be eager to hear the answers to these questions.... Cheers, Hoff

APNIC Policy Proposal 114
by Jamie Baddeley 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Folks, Saw this: https://www.apnic.net/policy/proposals/prop-114 Whilst the proposal does its best to outline pros and cons, I feel that from a policy perspective it removes the direct incentive to establish interconnectivity with IXP's (or some other mechanism for Multihoming). You gain an ASN but you are not compelled to increase the resilience of the Internet. To me that is a disadvantage that has not been stated. To me, having a network with an ASN means fundamentally you are participating in the mesh. On the solution: An organisation is eligible for an ASN assignment if: - they are currently multi-homed, OR - have previous allocated provider independent address space by APNIC, AND intend to multi-home in the future It seems to suggest a policy tilted towards incumbents or those who've been around long enough to have some PI space? The problem statement: The policy seems to imply that both requirements i.e. multi-homing and clearly defined single routing policy must be met simultaneously, this has created much confusion in interpreting the policy. Suggests that removing the confusing or conflicting elements of the current policy is wise, but I'm not convinced the proposed solution does that without undermining what I think is a important characteristic of the Internet which is a highly interconnected mesh. As an alternate, is it not better to strengthen the process to determine whether the applicant did indeed multi-home? There are downsides in that of course. It does place overhead on an entity to test that but what matters more? Ease of access into the ASN club or ensuring high levels of interconnectivity? What do others think? jamie

Routing changes for AS17746 (Orcon)
by Simon Allard 02 Sep '15

02 Sep '15

Hi NZNog Thursday 3rd Sept 00:00 -> 0600 we will be making some changes to the way AS17746 Peers. Currently AS17746 has APE/WIX Peering. We decommissioning AS17746 APE peering and advertising AS17746 via Callplus AS9790. Orcons WIX peering will eventually become AS9790 but that’s a few weeks off yet but for the mean time we will prepend AS paths to make the AS paths equal. AS9790 Peers at APE/AKL-IX and Megaport, so there will be increased peering traffic and prefixes due to the extra routes in AKL-IX and Megaport. Any questions please drop me an email Cheers, Si [cid:imagea22279.PNG(a)4001d0ff.41a0d19e] Simon Allard // Senior Network Architect D: 09 550 2790 M: 020 100 0790 F: www.callplus.co.nz<http://www.callplus.co.nz> | www.slingshot.co.nz<http://www.slingshot.co.nz> | www.flip.co.nz<http://www.flip.co.nz> | www.orcon.net.nz<http://www.orcon.net.nz> This message and any attachments contain privileged and confidential information.

by Selina Harrington 01 Sep '15

01 Sep '15

Hi, ICANN has updated the IANA IPv4 Recovered Address Space registry according to the Global Policy for Post Exhaustion IPv4 Allocation Mechanisms by the IANA. The policy states that in each IPv4 allocation period, each RIR will receive a single IPv4 allocation unit from ICANN. An IPv4 allocation period is defined as a 6-month period following 1 March or 1 September in each year. The address space selection software can be downloaded from: https://github.com/icann/ The list of allocations can be found at: https://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-recovered-address-space/ Kind regards, Selina Harrington ******************************************* Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) Internet Corporation for Assigned Names & Numbers 12025 Waterfront Drive, Suite 300 Los Angeles, CA 90094 Phone: +1 310 301 5800 Fax: +1-310-823-8649 *******************************************

Hi, Does anyone from recent (last 1-2 years) experience have a ballpark figure of what it costs to run fibre privately in a rural setting these days? Indicative price per meter for planning, consents, trenching, installing the duct and then blowing the fibre through? *Jesse Archer* *General Manager*Full Flavour *p. *07 577 0099 *ddi*. 07 281 1391 *s*.

AS45177 Peering on APE
by Callum Barr 31 Aug '15

31 Aug '15

Hi All, Hope you are well, etc... We (Vibe Communications / Layer2Co / Intellipath / AS45177) are going to be dropping our peering at APE sometime this week or early next. We have found that the traffic levels have dropped to the point where it is no longer economic to peer at the current port pricing, aswell as having AS9560 in the AS-PATH making some 'interesting' traffic paths happen. If you currently have a bilateral peer with us over the APE fabric, this will disappear. You can re-establish this peer with a direct cable run at a datacenter that we are both at, or via the fabric at AKL-IX or Megaport AKL. Our PeeringDB entry is located here ( http://www.peeringdb.com/view.php?asn=45177) Kind regards, *Callum Barr* / *Network Architect / Vibe Communications* +64 27 567 2746 / callum(a)vibecommunications.co.nz Office: +64 9 222 0000 / Fax: 0800 842 326 Level 2, 155 K Rd, Auckland, New Zealand Web: www.vibecommunications.co.nz / Peering: AS45177 <http://www.peeringdb.com/view.php?asn=45177>

issue with xtra mail
by Daniel Christie 31 Aug '15

31 Aug '15

Hey all, Is there anyone here who is an admin of the xtra mail servers for custom domains? I simply want to know why an email being sent from an email server to xtras would get this showing up in SMTP logs of the sending server 210.54.141.1 [1224] 12:52:37 Client session <<< 553 Authentication is required to send mail as user(a)domain.com<mailto:user(a)domain.com> I'm trying to go through normal spark support channels but they are trying to ask me questions about the email server I administer which are ridiculous and very frustrating. I'm fairly sure (with my knowledge of SMTP) the issue is that our server is saying its sending an email from an email account that is hosted on xtra servers and trying to send to the same email/account without first specifying auth I have given them more than enough information about the issue already and just not getting anywhere.

UFB - DHCP Relay and Packet Fragmentation
by Brent Marquis 26 Aug '15

26 Aug '15

Hi All, This is a little bit late for getting the info into this community sorry, I was tied down with ensuring we had the fix out there. I thought it was important to ensure that anyone who is affected, but may not have seen the informer(s), knows that as of tomorrow you can commence migrations, remove workarounds and re-instate config, etc I've attached our informer for the Fragmented Packet issue, as it has all the info - but the main details are below. We are currently upgrading all of our 'new' (introduced earlier this year) ONTs, due to 2 issues. 1) DHCP Relay packets being discarded - where DHCP requests have src and dst port of 67. 2) Fragmented packets being discarded - any fragmented packets passing through the ONT in either direction (including NGA Voice) The upgrade has been progressing over the last few nights, OLT by OLT and will be completed overnight tonight - this was done under BAU Service Event notifications, which you probably all saw. In short, neither of these issues will exist from tomorrow onwards. Where normal service for any users affected by these issues can resume. Thanks to all the RSPs who helped us identify, troubleshoot and test over the past few weeks. As always - give me a shout if you have any questions/concerns.
