RE: US DOJ victim letter

2012-01-31 Thread Ronald Bonica
Folks,

I received a DoJ Victim Notification letter yesterday, which was pretty amazing 
considering the fact that I don't run a network.

My letter referenced United States v. Menachem Youlus. I suspect that the 
letters that you guys received referenced a different case. Do I have that 
right?

RE: in defense of lisp (was: Anybody can participate in the IETF)

2011-07-13 Thread Ronald Bonica
Scott,

I am not so sure that Randy's suggestion can be dismissed out of hand.

When we started down the path of locator/identifier separation, we did so 
because the separation of locators and identifiers might solve some real 
operational problems. We were not so interested in architectural purity.

At this point, it might be interesting to do the following:

- enumerate the operational problems solved by LISP
- enumerate the subset of those problems also solved by RFC 6296
- execute a cost/benefit analysis on both solutions

 No, that's a misuse of loc/id since no identification is involved,
 even at the network layer -- but it is in the reduce issues in global
 routing and local renumbering space (that's part of what LISP does).

 When you finally do, considering what it gives you, will the journey
 have been worth it?  LISP apparently has more benefits, and NPT6 is so
 much easier -- particularly if you have rapid adaptation to apparent
 address changes, which many apps have and all mobile devices need
 already -- sorry but I don't think ILNP is going to make it.  You
 can't just say the IETF should pay more attention.  I've invited
 people to promote it and nobody stepped up.

Leo,

Maybe we can fix this by:

a) bringing together larger groups of clueful operators in the IETF
b) deciding which issues interest them
c) showing up and being vocal as a group in protocol developing working groups

To some degree, we already do this in the IETF OPS area, but judging by your 
comments, we don't do it nearly enough.

Comments?

The way the IETF and the operator community interact is badly broken.

The IETF does not want operators in many steps of the process.  If you try to 
bring up operational concerns in early protocol development for example you'll 
often get a we'll look at that later response, which in many cases is right.  
Sometimes you just have to play with something before you worry about the

 [snip]
 
 But there is no roadmap in the IETF process now for LISP that says
 We've got this 90% baked, we need to circulate a draft to the NANOG
 mailing list, request operator comments, and actively solicit operators
 to participate in the expanded test network.  We need that mechanism
 to
 tell folks hey, it's real enough your operational feedback is now
 useful and come test our new idea.
 

Leo,

We need to fix this problem. Without the feedback loop that you describe, the 
IETF will never know whether they are producing useful stuff or nonsense.

How does the following sound as a solution:

Let's say we set up an new IETF mailing list, primarily for the use of 
operators. When an operator sees a draft that might be of interest to the 
operational community, he creates a new thread on the list, copying the draft 
authors and WG chairs. (The authors and chairs can decide whether to add the WG 
to the thread). The OPS AD will consider thread contents when evaluating the 
draft.

Expect more discussion in Quebec and on the mailing list. I doubt if there will

 There may be an OPS area, but it is not listened to.
 
 Witness the latest debacle with the attempt at trying to make 6to4
 historic.
 
 Various non-practicing entities were able to derail what network
 operators largely supported.  Since the IETF failed to make progress
 operators will do other things to stop 6to4 ( i have heard no 
 over IPv4 transport, blackhole 6to4 anycast, decom relay routers...)
 
 Real network operators have a relatively low BS threshold, they have
 customers to support and businesses to run,  and they don't have thumb
 wrestle these people who don't actually have any skin in the game.

Somehow, it is appropriate that this should happen on February 3. On February 
3, 1959, Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and JP Richardson (aka The Big Bopper) died

 Hi all.
 
 
 
 While reading up on IPv6, I've seen numerous places that subnets are
 now
 all /64.
 
 I have even read that subnets defined as /127 are considered harmful.
 
 
 
 However while implementing IPv6 in our network, I've encountered
 several
 of our peering partners using /127 or /126 for point-to-point links.
 
 
 
 What is the Best Current Practice for this - if there is any?
 
 Would you recommend me to use /64, /126 or /127?
 
 What are the pros and cons?

 Of course we would require a master whitelist as well as to not be
