I saw in my mail logs tonight, a bounced spam from 'unknown[1.52.36.176]' 1/8? When did that happen? (Yes, yes, I know; last year. Just never seen one before...) Cheers, -- jra

We've been advised by a client that they're incorrectly listing a /15. The listing is: (E-431420) 96.44.0.0/15 According to their FAQ they only take delistings via newsgroups and Google News isn't co-operating with me in regards to them. Meanwhilst we're affected with our range 96.44.128.0/18. -- Kate QuadraNet, Inc 530 W 6th Street #901 Los Angeles, CA 90014 kate(a)quadranet.com

atdn.net issues
by Randy Carpenter 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

Anyone know who to contact for issues with atdn.net? Their website is not exactly a well of information. All connections from my network to anything at atdn (AOL, etc.) are dying at atdn's edge. Traceroutes go out through xo.net. I have verified that both of my upstream providers can get there fine (via the same path), so it appears to be a problem specifically with our net blocks (74.115.180.0/22 and 74.219.82.0/24) or ASN (15088) If anyone has any visibility from the other side of atdn.net, and can give me any info, I would appreciate it. thanks, -Randy

Internet Issues in Europe Tonight?
by Ryan Gelobter 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

Does anyone have some detailed information about the internet issues going on in Sweden and other parts of Europe right now? I've read some reports about a large Telia outage in Sweden indicating a fault somewhere in Frankfurt or London as the cause. http://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/article8609308.ab http://www.dn.se/nyheter/sverige/stort-internetfel-i-europa

[OT] Internet connectivity options in Afghanistan?
by Janet Sullivan 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

I'm looking for cheap/slow internet connectivity options in Kabul, Jalalabad, and Herat. The connections will be used by AFCECO orphanages, so speed isn't as much of an issue as cost. I'm guessing that satellite might be the only game in town, but if any of you fine folks know of connectivity options, I'd appreciate an email.

BGP Failover Question
by Chris Wallace 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

I am looking for some help with an issue we recently had with one of our BGP peers recently. I currently have two DIA providers each terminated into their own edge router and I am doing iBGP to exchange routes between the two edge routers. Last week Provider A made a policy change "somewhere" in their network in the middle of the day causing traffic to stop routing. Of course this connection happens to be the preferred route for the majority of our inbound and outbound traffic. I never saw our physical link go down and never saw our peer drop therefore BGP did not stop advertising routes, this caused most of our customers traffic to go nowhere. In order to fix the issue I had to manually shutdown the peer till Provider A confirmed the change they made had been reverted. This isn't the first time we have seen this issue with our various providers, how can I prevent issues like this from happening in the future? ---Chris

Is there a process to revoke netblocks from entities which deny ownership? http://www.db.ripe.net/whois?searchtext=77.223.129.43 The admin-c, tech-c deny any responsibility for this netblock. -Dan

Deal NANOG, Does anyone know where I can get real/raw BGP traffic, maybe in pcap format? I just need maybe a few days of raw data for an inline analysis tool I am developing. Thank you, Javier
