[AusNOG] IPv6 status in ANZ

[Mark Prior]

It's been about seven years since I last nagged at AusNOG about the poor 
state of IPv6 adoption in Oz and it hasn't got any better since :-( And 
I don't mean the plumbing, I mean the services,


I have recently rewritten the script I use to look for IPv6 services 
(web, mail, dns, ntp, xmpp and sip) and as part of that process I 
leveraged PeeringDB to find all the domains that claim to connect to an 
IX in either Australia or New Zealand. As a result I now have two 
sections on the web page that collect them all together.


As an added bonus I also look for DNSSEC, and its deployment makes IPv6 
look like a roaring success!


The Australian IX member section is



and the New Zealand IX member section is



Of course there will be organisations in both lists but I only probe 
them once (a day).


Start from the top of the page if you want a better understanding of 
what is being checked (and see some graphs) and check out the link under 
the domain name to find "diagnostics" about the tests.


Regards,
Mark.

[AusNOG] National Measurement Institute's NTP service

[Mark Prior]

Hi all,

This morning I received email from the (Australian) National Measurement 
Institute (NMI) notifying me that they are changing the IP address of 
their Melbourne NTP server shortly and it occurred to me that perhaps 
others weren't aware that the NMI operate national NTP servers with 
chime based from a caesium atomic clock located at NMI’s Lindfield 
laboratory. You must register your IP addresses with them in order to 
use them but more information is available at




and scroll down to "NTP Servers".

I'm not associated with NMI so if you have questions then ask them.

[AusNOG] Indian NOG's virtual meeting on 6 & 7 August

[Mark Prior]

INNOG, the Indian NOG, is being held over two days, 6 & 7 August via 
Zoom. They are running it in the afternoon 2-5 pm Indian time which I 
think is equivalent to 6:30-9:30pm AEST. As usual for Zoom based NOG 
meeting you need to register first.

The meeting starts at 14:30 BST and runs for a couple of hours so it's 
late at night for Australia but some of the talks look interesting.

The first session is on Tuesday, starting at 10am Perth time.

Looks like it could be interesting, I had been trying to get Merike Kaeo 
to speak at AusNOG but finally she's here virtually. Also talks from 
Geoff Huston, Tom Paseka, Warrick Mitchell and Swapneel Patnekar.

[AusNOG] APNIC Networking from Home Virtual Events

[Mark Prior]

While there have been some virtual events in Europe to participate in 
there hasn't been much "locally" as yet. APNIC have decided to change 
that with some short virtual events.




While the first is targeted at South East Asia the timing is still very 
Australia friendly.


Having experienced the virtual UKNOF and RIPE events I think it's a good 
idea that APNIC have gone with an event that is only 2.5 hours long.

[Mark Prior]

RIPE are holding their 80th meeting via Zoom next week (12-14 May). 
Geoff Huston is speaking on the 12th (according to the provisional 
programme) in an Oz friendly time slot so it might be interesting to see 
how it works out and also check out the other talks.




Also UKNOF and LINX are holding a joint virtual meeting on the 11th.

[AusNOG] Fwd: [apops] new BGP hijack & visibility tool “BGPalerter”

[Mark Prior]

This might be of interest to some folks.

Mark.
--- Begin Message ---
Dear APOPS,

Recently NTT investigated how to best monitor the visibility of our own and
our subsidiaries’ IP resources in the BGP Default-Free Zone. We were
specifically looking how to get near real-time alerts funneled into an
actionable pipeline for our NOC & Operations department when BGP hijacks
happen.

Previously we relied on a commercial “BGP Monitoring as a Service”
offering, but with the advent of RIPE NCC’s “RIS Live” streaming API [1] we
saw greater potential for a self-hosted approach designed specifically for
custom integrations with various business processes. We decided to write
our own tool “BGPalerter” and share the source code with the Internet
community.

BGPalerter allows operators to specify in great detail how to distribute
meaningful information from the firehose from various BGP data sources (we
call them “connectors”), through data processors (called “monitors”),
finally outputted through “reports” into whatever mechanism is appropriate
(Slack, IRC, email, or a call to your ticketing system’s API).

The source code is available on Github, under a liberal open source license
to foster community collaboration:

https://github.com/nttgin/BGPalerter

If you wish to contribute to the project, please use Github’s “issues” or
“pull request” features. Any help is welcome! We’d love suggestions for new
features, updates to the documentation, help with setting up a CI
regression testing pipeline, or packaging for common platforms.

Kind regards,

Job & Massimo
NTT Ltd

Its not 'least cost routing', BGP doesn't work like that, unless the

customers-of-a-customer.
China Telecom must have started advertising that those networks were

[AusNOG] Wanted: Lighting Talks at AusNOG 2018

[Mark Prior]

A reminder that we are still on the hunt for lightning talks. If you are 
registered to attend AusNOG 2018 and would like to talk then send some 
email to organis...@ausnog.net briefly describing your proposed talk.


Thanks,
Mark.

From: Mark Prior 
Reply-To: organis...@ausnog.net 
To: ausnog@lists.ausnog.net 

As usual the last session of AusNOG 2018 will be devoted to Lightning 
Talks. The session lasts for 30 minutes, or until David pulls the plug 
on it  :-) so we're looking for a number of sub 5 minute talks. Slides 
are not needed so if you have an idea you want to bounce off people, 
report on something you're recently discovered, seek collaborators, 
etc., why don't you have a go?


The organisers would like to especially encourage people who haven't
spoken at an AusNOG before to consider having a go.

If you are interested then send some email to organis...@ausnog.net by 
the 27th of August.


Remember you must already be registered for AusNOG 2018 in order to

Thank you to all the people who proposed talks, again we had more

haven't registered yet I believe we still have a few tickets left.

Also for those of you waiting for the new financial year to register

of you waiting to see the programme before registering I'm hopeful that 
I can get it finished before we run out of tickets but no promises.

[AusNOG] Reminder of the AusNOG charter

[Mark Prior]

I am beginning to wonder if this should be automatically posted to the
list on a regular interval.



Especially note the first sentence.

Mark.


AusNOG Mailing List Charter
(Ver 201412)

The AusNOG mailing list has been established to provide a forum for
the exchange of technical information, the discussion of specific
implementation issues that require cooperation among internet
infrastructure related service providers (eg ISP/ASP/DC etc), the
discussion of technically focused operational issues, and the discussion
of technical issues relating to provision of internet services and the
various infrastructure related services in the telecommunications
industry.

This is NOT a forum for journalists to pick up leads, sales people to
sell things, end-users to pester their ISP, or bush lawyers to posit
their beliefs. Such behaviour will not be tolerated (see "Moderation"
below).

When you post to the AusNOG mailing list any posting made should be
considered as solely being the views of the person making the posting
unless explicitly stated otherwise. You must also remember that any
posting made joins the public domain and is publicly archived, it is
unwise to include any information that would normally require an NDA
of any sort. The responsibility of this vests with the poster.
Note well that while technical matters relating to a commercial or
legal dispute MAY be in scope, details of a commercial or legal nature
are NOT permitted. This includes, but is not limited to, naming the
parties involved or including any details of the individuals employed
by or associated with the parties that are involved in the dispute.

Professional respect:

As a list subscriber, you are required to respect the opinion of
others, even if you disagree with it. Healthy debate on a topic is
good, however personal attacks, name and shame attempts, or flaming
will not be tolerated.

It would be worthwhile for new list subscribers to become familiar
with the posters on the list before jumping in. Some of the list
members have spent many years in their field and are experts.
Their experience is a resource to be valued. Also remember that there
isn't always a direct correlation between the number of posts by a poster
and their expertise level.

Remember that when you post mail to the AusNOG mailing list, your post
will be received by hundreds, or even thousands, of your current and
potential peers, customers, suppliers and employers. Think before
posting - you don't want to look foolish in front of these people as
these are the very people you may need to ask for a job, or a favour,
one day.

We ask that list subscribers refrain from using derogatory language
towards individuals, companies, or products.

Posting:

There are indeed a lot of experienced network professionals on the AusNOG
list, however there are also an equal number of people new to the
industry. The list is NOT your personal free 'tech support' list, NOR is
it the place to beat up the naive (see "Professional Respect").

Before you hit send, please ask yourself these questions.

1. Have I searched the list archives?
(hint Google "site:lists.ausnog.net "

2. Have I searched Google or other places broadly?

3. Does my own team or company, internally, know about this or
a fix?

4. Is this post actually on charter? (Have I read the charter?!?)

5. Is there a more appropriate forum for this question (vendor
or technology specific)?

If after that, you are still stuck, unsure, or simply in the dark
please construct an intelligent post, being clear as to what your
problem is, what you have/have not tried, and what you actually
need to achieve, and with that:

(a) Don't quote 50 lines of text and add one line to it. Quote what is
necessary to maintain context, but don't overdo it;

(b) Keep your signatures and disclaimers short. It's no fun seeing
signatures that are longer than your posts;

(c) Cross posting to multiple lists is discouraged;

(d) Please don't post in HTML format - it tends to annoy people who
read with text mode clients.

(e) Do not post, or continue threads, that are focused on a discussion
regarding whether something is on or off topic. If you see something
which should be drawn to someone's attention, please either email
the moderators (modera...@ausnog.net) or the poster privately (off-list).

(d) Deliberately Trolling, or similarly making posts about other peoples
signatures does not show your professionalism (see Professional respect)
and is discouraged.

(f) Once the moderators have signalled that a thread is to stop. DO NOT
CONTINUE POSTING! It serves no purpose. If you have a valid
(operationally related) issue with issuance of the 'STOP THREAD', please
email the moderators (modera...@ausnog.net).

Operations lists are often used when it's, whatever "it" is, not working
as you think it should. In these situations please contact contact the
other party directly. If you do

[AusNOG] AusNOG 2018 Call for Presentations

[Mark Prior]

Yes it's that time of year again!

For people who may have missed the change of venue AusNOG 2018 will now
be at the Westin Hotel in Sydney on August 30 and 31.

As per previous years we are making a call for people to submit
proposals for talks at AusNOG 2018 that would be of interest to the
Internet operations community, ie technical and not sales talks.

Previous feedback has suggested that participants would like to see more
talks from operators so we are especially looking for operators to step
up (for example, sharing experiences about the nbn).

Notes to presenters
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Preference will be given to presentations that result in actual
operational outcomes.

Speaking slots are typically 30 minutes, including Q time, although we
can accommodate a limited number of requests for 45/60 minute slots. We
would also entertain requests for 15 minutes. There will be a call for
lightning talks (5 minutes) closer to the event.

By submitting a presentation for consideration in the AusNOG 2018
programme, and if selected the presenter will allow AusNOG to:

* Take photographs of the presentation and presenter
* Record and rebroadcast video and audio of the presentation and
  presenter
* Redistribute the presentation slides, audio, video, and photographs
  electronically, on the AusNOG website, or otherwise but leaving
  all intellectual property in the hands of presenter or rightful
  property holder[1].

Presenters receive complimentary registration while those not selected
will be offered registration at the early bird rate.

Deadlines
=-=-=-=-=

18 June:   Submission of presentation title, presentation description
   (300 words), and presenter biography (150 words)

16 July:   Presenters notified of their acceptance status as an
   AusNOG 2018 presentation.

20 August: Submission of final presentation slides as PowerPoint,
   Keynote, or LibreOffice. Provision of a recent digital
   photograph (<500k) of the presenter.

All submissions must be sent by email to organisers AT ausnog DOT net.

[1]: AusNOG accepts that some speakers are unable to allow us to archive
their presentation due to company or corporate policy, and if the
situation arises AusNOG will delete all copies in its possession after
the presentation.

Re: [AusNOG] Business customer smashing their "unlimited" MBE 20/20Mbps internet service

[Mark Prior]

A 20Mbps service is a 20Mbps service. If they are running it at the
limit all the time then perhaps have a discussion with them to check
that they haven't got a run away process doing that and if not then it's
an opportunity to upsell them into something with some extra headroom.

[AusNOG] Presentations from AusNOG 2017 now online

[Mark Prior]

Most of the presentations from AusNOG 2017 in Melbourne are now
available on the web site. You can access them from the programme at

just click on the title of the talk.

I've also made the results of the survey available.

Thanks to the speakers for making their content available and thanks to
everyone who attended the meeting, especially those that completed the
survey and the speaker evaluations.

Regards,
Mark.

[AusNOG] Speaker feedback

[Mark Prior]

Thanks to everyone who supplied feedback for the speakers (and completed
the survey) while at the conference. The number of responses for the
Friday sessions are noticeably lower than Thursday. It would be good if
the people who hadn't got around to it before leaving on Friday could
make the effort to supply some feedback. I'll leave the forms open for a
couple more days so you can add your thoughts.

Mark.

[AusNOG] Call for Lightning talks at AusNOG 2017

[Mark Prior]

Working on something interesting just now? How about sharing in a
Lightning Talk at AusNOG 2017?

This year we've crammed in as many regular talks as we could from the
many proposals we received and so we've only allocated one 30 minute
slot for the Lightning talks. As a consequence we're going to restrict
each talk to just 5 minutes, and preferably without any slides.

If you have registered to attend AusNOG 2017 and want to talk during the
Lightning talk session then submit a proposal to <organis...@ausnog.net>
by the 6th of September.

The organisers would like to especially encourage people who haven't
spoken at an AusNOG before to consider having a go.

Kind Regards,
Mark Prior
(For the AusNOG Board)

Re: [AusNOG] AusNOG 2017 programme

[Mark Prior]

Originally the programme was distributed on paper as part of on-site
registration so including events prior to the start of the actual
conference was a little pointless. The web based programme continues to
focus on those parts of the conference that require a conference badge
that was picked up at registration.
