Righto, second effort
202.7.0.0-202.7.1.255 is the range
202.7.0.0 is the network number 202.7.1.255 is the broadcast address 255.255.254.0 is the network mask

I would like the following assigned for CLEAR's IP backbone deployment in Wellington, ready for our production WIX access being fully functional (which should happen early next week, depending on how much sleep Richard feels like getting ;) -- 202.7.0.192 ba1-atm1-0-2.lmtn.clix.net.nz 202.7.0.193 ba2-atm1-0-2.lmtn.clix.net.nz (*) 202.7.0.194 gos1.lmtn.clix.net.nz (*) planned but not currently live. Note the records shown above are not currently active in our nameservers (but will be early next week assuming all this is ok with the CNH people). I would prefer the relevant PTR records in the 0.7.202.in-addr.arpa zone to refer to the clix.net.nz names above, but am happy to comply with whatever structure develops, e.g. 192.0.7.202.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR clix1.wix.net.nz. 193.0.7.202.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR clix2.wix.net.nz. 194.0.7.202.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR clix3.wix.net.nz. We have had our WIX-facing interfaces configured in NetLink's interim 203.97.132.192/28 block, but as our WIX access wasn't live last week there seems little point in using them now that we have a new range to play with (thanks Andy - you can have those addresses back now :) CALL FOR BGP PEERS! Would anybody interested in network peering with CLIX across WIX please drop me a note? Pre-requisites at this stage are: 1. An interface on WIX numbered within the new 202.7.0.0/23 block 2. A router which speaks BGP v4 3. A globally unique autonomous system number 4. A list of the route objects to be advertised to CLIX 5. Problem escalation contact details, 24/7 if available CLIX operates BGP route filtering with all BGP peers to protect the network from finger trouble. We will be looking in the future at building route filters directly from policy obtained from one of the public routing registries, but I expect these filter lists to be hand-edited to start with. We will be applying route dampening penalties against flapping BGP advertisements, and do not intend to accept advertisements with a wider prefix than 24 bits. We will not provide transit to any other autonomous systems (domestic or international) unless an appropriate customer relationship exists with CLEAR. Note! These requirements are NOT being proposed as a multilateral peering policy across WIX - far from it, these are requirements for peering with CLEAR only. Other providers and network operators will have their own arrangements. -- Joe Abley <jabley(a)clear.co.nz> Tel +64 9 912-4065, Fax +64 9 912-5008 Network Architect, CLEAR Net http://www.clear.net.nz/
