Changes to rs1.chix.nzix.net - 10am Monday
Greetings, As part of our continued effort to develop the NZIX route servers, we are planning to replace rs1.chix.nzix.net on Monday at 10am. We will observe a change freeze on the rest of our route servers nationwide (including rs2.chix.nzix.net) during this time. The new server is dual stacked and will support IPv6 on 2001:7FA:3:5F44::1/64. All the active peers have sessions pre-configured on this, your ipv6 address will be 2001:7FA:3:5F44::X/64, where X is the last octet of your v4 address (not a hex translation like we did to generate the APE v6 addresses) - i.e. if you are 218.100.24.17 then your v6 address will be 2001:7FA:3:5F44::17/64. The v6 peering is running now on this address for all peers, so please configure this up. Later next week we will be replacing rs2.chix.nzix.net with a dual stacked server also, we'll advise the details/timing of this once the rs1 replacement is complete. Changes of note include; Implementing v6 on the route servers. Only accepting up to /24's for v4 and /48's for v6. The only filtering we will provide is to deny bogon routes and defaults from peers. Also we are still on track to roll these changes out on the WIX in the next couple of weeks. Progress :). Feel free to drop me an email if you have any queries/comments regarding this. Regards, Tim
