GMT Passes smoothly

Well NetGate has also withstood GMT with no hitches in reporting or traffic. Really our only issue was huge outbound traffic last night, other than that all's well.

Anyone know of any real issues aside from PSTN congestion?
by Chris Wedgwood 31 Dec '99

31 Dec '99

Out of curiosity... Does anyone know if any real problems aside form heavy PSTN congestion? Presumably these issues would be also paranoia induced such as perhaps power-spikes cause by everyone testing the lights at 00:01... (perhaps there is an equivalent here with water supply?) So far the publicity I've seen has all be along the lines of `business' as usual -- were/are operators elsewhere in the world made aware of issues such as the PSTN congestion? -cw --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

The New Zealand Network Operators' Group
by Donald Neal 31 Dec '99

31 Dec '99

The New Zealand Network Operators' Group The New Zealand Network Operators' Group (NZNOG) has neither a king, a president nor a formal membership. At present it consists of the subscribers to this mailing list, which anyone is free to join. At the beginning of the last year of the twentieth century (or the zeroth year of the twenty-first, if you prefer) the list had 120 subscribers, with the count growing slightly each month.) The address hpeturs(a)clear.co.nz was removed from the list earlier today. The user of that address is welcome to resubscribe with an address which sends me fewer bounce messages. The NZNOG mailing list is provided through a server at The University of Waikato, and is administered by an employee of Telecom NZ Ltd. Neither of these organisations (nor the administrator) is responsible for its content. NZNOG Mailing List Acceptable Use Policy The NZNOG mailing list exists to provide a forum for the exchange of technical information and the discussion of implementation issues that require cooperation among New Zealand network service providers. In order to continue to provide a useful forum for discussion of relevant technical issues, users of the list are asked to respect the following guidelines. 1. Discussion will focus on Internet operational and technical issues. 2. Discussion related to meetings of network service providers is appropriate. 3. Discussion unrelated to these topics is not appropriate. 4. Postings to multiple mailing lists are discouraged. 5. Postings that include foul language, character assassination, and lack of respect for other participants are unacceptable. 6. Blatant product or service marketing is unacceptable. 7. Postings of a political, philosophical or legal nature are discouraged. 8. Postings to the list should be in ASCII or MIME encoded as text/plain. Attachments should not be sent to the list. To present a document, a suitable URL may be referred to. For documents of general interest, the use of proprietary file formats is discouraged. 9. Breaches of list etiquette should be dealt with privately with the offending list user, and should not result in complaints being sent to the list. Mailing List Archives A full archive is available at http://list.waikato.ac.nz/archives/nznog/ To search the archive, see http://list.waikato.ac.nz/archives/search.html (and remember to select nznog). Subscribing to the List To subscribe to the NZNOG list, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz, where the body of the message reads subscribe nznog There are at present no restrictions on who may subscribe to the list, or even on who may post to the list. Digest Mailing List If you don't wish to receive postings as they are sent, you can instead subscribe to the nznog-digest mailiing list, on which all postings are sent out in a single "digest" every couple of days. Other Activities NZNOG does not at present have other regular activities than this mailing list, though some Auckland subscribers have been known to meet over beer.

We are still here. No overloading either. (At least, on our local loop). And the cable modems are all still here. With appropriate 1 Jan 2000 log entries.
