Whole of Domain Web Harvest 2014 - Robots.txt
by Jay Gattuso 23 Sep '14

23 Sep '14

Hi Noggers, We are looking at undertaking another Whole of Domain (WOD) web harvest during this financial year. (I will be in touch with you with the specifics once we have some of the timings formalised with the crawl contractor, the Internet Archive. I wanted to ask for your views on adherence to robots.txt. We have three options that are hypothetically available to us, each with various merits. 1) Strictly adhere - will miss some artefacts required to replay a site correctly 2) Adhere but follow embeds - (allows us to get linked images, css, some json etc) 3) Ignore - most fulsome crawl. On the last WOD (in 2013) we used option (2), and I wanted to test if this was still the right option to choose. We aim to capture the most complete snapshot of the NZ web possible so it is available to future generations. This Robots issues directly affects the completeness of the crawl we can undertake. If we choose the wrong option, there is a risk of a, reduced crawl coverage, and frustrated web content operators. I'm really keen to make sure we are able to capture the most complete WOD we can, and seek your opinions on the above, on or off list.

Did DNS replies for outlook.office365.com increase in size on Friday?
by Michael Fincham 23 Sep '14

23 Sep '14

Hi all, Out of curiosity - did anyone else see the DNS replies for outlook.office365.com scoot over 512 bytes on Friday? An ANY query from here currently returns a 740 byte answer. Trying to determine if Microsoft changed something on their end or my customer's router unexpectedly lost the ability to deal with large DNS replies 8^) -- Michael

2U swap for DR
by Rob McDonald 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

Hello all, I'm canvassing (soliciting??) for people interested to swap a few U and a few Mbps for a DR / monitoring server. People who just want to sell me rack space and data in a one way arrangement need not apply, I can research that myself. We are based in Auckland, but realise that all the sites we have available to put our monitoring and DR server are also in Auckland, with very similar network paths. To keep it on topic, to the winning referral goes the beer!

Spark Lightbox question
by Tony Wicks 20 Sep '14

20 Sep '14

Hi guys, does anyone know the traffic path (or source IP's) for the Spark Lightbox service ? Interested to know if they are handing the traffic over APE or not. I really hope someone has not done something very stupid and put the streaming servers in Sydney and expect all the ISP's to pay to haul the traffic in internationally.

The meeting draws attendees from around the world who will be discussing SDN (software defined networking), lightpath exchanges, performance and virtualisation. A set of demanding demonstrations will also be using the temporary, high-speed network connection that is being brought to the hotel just for the meeting. You will see lightpath exchange technology, software defined networking, high-resolution (4k/8k) telemedicine and some new hardware. And if you can adjust to the altitude, an adventurous bunch will be taking an early morning run along the lake on Tuesday morning. We look forward to seeing you at GLIF, register now: < http://glif-2014-conference.lilregie.com/> If you happen to be in Wellington the following week, you might also be interested in participating in SDNcon <http://www.sdncon.net/>.
