6to4 on Sprint Wireless Broadband
by Izaac 01 Mar '10

01 Mar '10

A few months ago, is appears that Sprint started dropping 6to4 encapsulated packets. Egress is fine. Ingress silently drops. Anyone see anything similar? Or am I the only guy crazy enough to be doing this sort of thing in the first place? -- . ___ ___ . . ___ . \ / |\ |\ \ . _\_ /__ |-\ |-\ \__

Again: as long as they don't interfere with IANA and RIR's and assuming there is no aluminum hat conspiracy that tries to achieve world-domination-via-ipv6 I wish them all the best. If they wish to implement some ridiculous policies concerning the assignment of IPv6 space via the ITU, let them. The result will be that all the telco's and ISP's will continue to use the current RIR's and ITU will prove their existence is useless. > Given that the ITU, like the RIR, are a member driven system.... that to me > suggests that there are specific members who are pushing for this...

Imho there is no massive problem with the RIR system, although there is always room for improvement. Again, my only point is: allocating space to ITU may settle whatever worries they have. I'm just trying to point out that competition (and change) are not a bad thing and I'm reluctant to start seeking conspiracies about world domination via ipv6. Let's see what it is ITU is *really* trying to get done, let's chat about it and then let's see what is wise. With all respect to Sven Kamphuis, that is exactly the reaction I would not see as the best towards the UN and ITU. Just my 2 cents -- Met vriendelijke groet / Kind Regards, Worldmax Operations B.V.

Why would this automatically be the case ? If governments were required to distribute addresses via the national regulator, then the freedom of choice would NOT be the case. > Not sure if Pepsi would be the right comparison for the ITU ;-) My point entirely. :-) Andy

Consumer Grade - IPV6 Enabled Router Firewalls.
by Wade Peacock 28 Feb '10

28 Feb '10

We had a discussion today about IPv6 today. During our open thinking the topic of client equipment came up. We all commented that we have not seen any consumer grade IPv6 enable internet gateways (routers/firewalls), a kin to the ever popular Linksys 54G series, DLinks , SMCs or Netgears. Does anyone have any leads to information about such products (In production or planned production)? We are thinking that most vendors are going to wait until Ma and Pa home user are screaming for them. Thoughts? -- Wade Peacock Sun Country Cablevision Ltd

--------------------------------- > The Tsunami is big enough to be dangerous but seems not to be too major : -------------------------------------- It wasn't anything. Stood on the cliff above Pipeline (famous surf spot) and couldn't tell if the water washing up the beach was normal winter surf or a tsunami. Other parts of the island may have seen more, though. Resonance is everything with these types of waves. Many cables land at Kahe on the west side of Oahu and Kawaihae on the Big Island, the opposite side of the islands from the direction of the wave. No calls from the NOC, so no trouble AFAIK... ;-) scott

Al Gore was fake, the Chilean Earthquakes are real.

Hi Not sure if anyone here is looking for some (extra?) work, or knows someone with an IT support business or just someone who is currently unemployed and looking to work on (initially) a part time basis? I'm looking for a freelance support/network engineer with experience of Redhat/CentOS, as well as preferably Cisco and Juniper (and possibly OpenBSD) to work with us supporting our US and UK operations Why freelance? Well because we're a self funded "startup" and don't have a lot of cash (yet) ... and preferably Washington DC as we've just inherited a small mountain of kit in the Equinix/Ashburn area and will need someone to go and kick it occasionally. If you know anyone who might be interested, can you ask them to email me directly (jon(a)fido.net) or call me on +44-20-30-519-519 / +1 (206) 501 4562 Regards, Jon Morby FidoNet Registration Services Ltd / Fido LLC
