Tools for automatically summarising CIDR notation list?
by Neil Gardner 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

My Google-fu has failed me. It defies logic that there aren’t tools (application, Excel based or online) which will take a list of CIDR formatted prefixes and spit out an optimally summarised list also in CIDR notation. I however, can’t find them. Neither can my friends. I have seen an excel sheet which almost does it, but it requires significant manual interaction and I think it relies on zero point energy and/or wizards magic to work… and I don’t understand it well. Any pointers? And no, doing it in my head isn’t feasible J Cheers – Neil G

Exciting program confirmed for the 2014 InTAC Conference
by Dean Pemberton 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hi Everyone. This is a plug for the 2014 Internet Technical Architecture Conference. The program has just been finalised and we've got some exciting speakers. InTAC is on the first day of the NetHui conference on the 9th of July at SkyCity in Auckland. It is pitched at people in a technical architecture role and has a theme of looking at emerging technologies and how these can help shape the architecture of the New Zealand Internet. Registration for the event is free and can be done via the NetHui registration system (http://nethui.org.nz/) This year the conference has three themes with the following speakers: ***Future-Proof Networking*** "Software Defined Networking at RMIT" Paul Zanna - Senior Manager, Infrastructure Innovation and Design Information Technology Services (ITS) RMIT University, Melbourne Australia RMIT has recently developed and deployed a proof of concept network using SDN and OpenFlow technologies. Paul will present the high level details of this real-world pilot along with some of the business drivers which helped RMIT make such a decision. "Panel - Our Future Plans for making use of UFB" Some of the largest users of the UFB network give us an insight into the sorts of ways they are using it. The panel will then discuss how they would like to see the UFB network develop to ensure that it continues to meet the needs of New Zealanders into the next decade. Panelists: Dave Mill - Network Specialist - Inspire Net Simon Allard - Senior Network Architect - Orcon David Redmore - Head of Broadband and Internet - Telecom New Zealand Geoff D’Audney - Technology Leadership Team - Vodafone New Zealand Others TBC ***Security*** "Future Uses of DNSSEC" Geoff Huston - Chief Scientist - APNIC Geoff will take a look at both DNSSEC deployment as well as the benefits which the technology will enable. Technologies like DANE which would allow organisations to take control of generating their own SSL certificates and publishing them in DNS, without the need for Certification Authority" "RPKI - How to stop your network being hijacked" New Zealand Registry Services (NZRS) will present an overview of this emerging technology as well as some of the work they will be doing to promote its deployment locally "TICSA - What it means for network architects" With the Telecommunications (Interception Capability and Security) Act 2013 now a reality it is critically important that network architects are aware of their legislative obligations. Representatives from the National Cyber Security Centre will present their view of how the reporting requirements of the act effect network architecture decisions. ***Authentication*** "Architecting an Authenticated/Trusted Internet" Richard Foy - General Manager, Digital Transformation, Department of Internal Affairs Richard is responsible for leading the push for New Zealanders to be able to complete their transactions with government easily in a digital environment. His goal is to open the way to an average of 70 per cent of New Zealanders' most common transactions with government being completed in a digital environment by 2017. He will present his vision of an Authenticated, Trusted Internet "2FA, been there done that" Adam Fier - Architecture and Security Manager - Victoria University of Wellington Adam has worked for a number of organisations who have implemented 2 Factor Authentication both internally and externally. He will present some of his experiences with deploying 2FA systems along with his view on the importance of 2FA in today's network connected organisations" -- Dean Pemberton Technical Policy Advisor InternetNZ +64 21 920 363 (mob) dean(a)internetnz.net.nz To promote the Internet's benefits and uses, and protect its potential.

Wireless link suggestions for audio and remote control (IP)
by Darren Moss 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi All, We have been looking at the Ubiquiti 5.8GHz outdoor wireless solutions for moving data between locations, of which we have 2. The first location is in Auckland CBD, on top of two buildings about 8klms apart, where both locations can see each other. The second location is in Tauranga, two building approx 15klms apart, again both locations can see each other (probably better than Auckland). Our goal is to move HD audio and remote control (TeamViewer/VNC type PC and server access) between the locations. The audio is moved via appliances which run over IP - nothing tricky, just needs about 2MBps bandwidth with low latency (we can buffer). Does anybody here have any recommendations on wireless kit / vendors, preferrably a solution that you have either used or seen in use. Many thanks Darren.

Mikrotik+certs+1970
by Sam Russell 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi all, I'm playing with mikrotiks for VPNs, and one of the "features" is that the RB750's we have don't hold time when they reboot. I'm planning to build them with NTP access (so if they can get internet then they can get time), but I'm also tempted to generate certs backdated to 1970 instead. Is anyone else doing this? How do you get mikrotiks to validate certs if the clock keeps resetting on power off - is relying on NTP the answer? Cheers Sam

Juniper EX-series switches & flash memory
by Sam Russell 02 Jun '14

02 Jun '14

Hi all, We've acquired a few EX-series switches recently and are a bit unimpressed at how they deal with power outages. Not wanting to trash talk here, just keen to see if anyone else is seeing this problem and ways they're dealing with this, off-list replies appreciated. Cheers Sam

FYI - announcement from APNIC. Please note... this will increase your membership costs. If you are a basic member with a single /22, your yearly membership feeds are AU$1994ex. Getting the extra /22 will increase it to AUD$2592ex per year (very much worth it considering the price of v4) If you have other ranges and want to see the impact on your membership fees, please visit: http://submit.apnic.net/cgi-bin/feecalc.pl If anyone else is looking for space bigger than a /22 or have some you want to offload, please contact us using the form: http://v4now.com/ip-brokering-enquiry/ ...Skeeve *Skeeve Stevens - *eintellego Networks Pty Ltd skeeve(a)eintellegonetworks.co.nz ; www.eintellegonetworks.co.nz Phone: +612 8014 7398; Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 ; skype://skeeve facebook.com/eintellegonetworks ; <http://twitter.com/networkceoau> linkedin.com/in/skeeve twitter.com/theispguy ; blog: www.theispguy.com The Experts Who The Experts Call Juniper - Cisco - Cloud - Consulting - IPv4 Brokering ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: APNIC Secretariat <secretariat(a)apnic.net> Date: Wed, May 28, 2014 at 9:53 AM Subject: [Apnic-announce] Additional IPv4 space now available from APNIC To: apnic-announce(a)lists.apnic.net ________________________________________________________________________ Additional IPv4 space now available from APNIC ________________________________________________________________________ APNIC Members can now apply for more IPv4 address space. Members can now request a maximum of a /22 (or 1,024 addresses) from IPv4 address blocks returned to APNIC by IANA. This is in addition to the maximum of a /22 that Members can receive under 103/8 ("last /8"). This gives new or existing Members up to 2,048 of IPv4 addresses from these address blocks. This is a result of implementing prop-105: Distribution of returned IPv4 address blocks (Modification of prop-088). http://www.apnic.net/policy/proposals/prop-105 Members can now apply using the online form via MyAPNIC. Applications will still need to meet the current IPv4 policy criteria. http://www.apnic.net/policy/add-manage-policy While this additional IPv4 address space is available, APNIC reiterates the critical need to deploy IPv6 and encourages the community to work towards transitioning to this protocol.
