by Tatsuya Kawasaki 23 May '00

23 May '00

I understand there was major routing problem at UUNET last night. It started around 5:00 and ended 7:30pm EST. UUNET is not willing tell me what went wrong but could anyone tell me at this time. They were going to send me e-mail regarding this in a couple days...

RE: UU-Net outage in Santa Clara
by Zaid Ali 23 May '00

23 May '00

Yes I have seen my lines go down a couple of times but not so bad since their loss in Santa Clara.. I heard that it was router hardware when I called in regards to my case in Santa Clara but I am worried if it is bad config applied across a couple of routers.

Its been really bad the last week or so. They lost a frame switch in the Palo Alto office earlier last week and then late last week they were having more problems with our frame circuit that was causing the BGP peering to go down. We have run all weekend with no BGP routes from UUnet and will be bugging them on Monday to get that back up (I don't have the patience for them this weekend). Very odd, as they have been pretty stable over the last 6-9 months. I think its time to start complaining louder and escalating!

BGP filtering of supernets out of classful space
by Jeff Haas 22 May '00

22 May '00

In attempting to help someone with regards to BGP announcement filtering from the IRR we've found the following situation: A provider in China has been assigned addresses in the traditional class C space. APNIC's assignment is a /16 for this allocation. Said provider, trying to be good Internet citizens are announcing only aggregates of /16. However, they're running into several providers that are filtering the announcements because they aren't /24. Experimentation has proven that announcing /24's will solve this problem. This obviously clutters up the global routing tables. The primary justification I can see for such filtering is to prevent "sink routing" - or catching everything else where more specific routes don't exist. (This would probably be a Bad Thing for the provider foolishly making such announcements - a very effective self DoS attack.) What methodology are providers using for these types of route filtering issues now? (I'll save the IRR pulpit for later.) And yes, I have directed the provider having the routing issues to contact each ISP doing the filtering separately. -- Jeffrey Haas - Merit RSng project - jeffhaas(a)merit.edu

Re: Class B Address

On Sat, 20 May 2000, Patrick Evans wrote: > And then watch certain tier-Ns filter out your routes? As far as I know, every provider has relented and will accept announcements on ARIN/RIPE/APNIC allocation bounderies. Even the original Sprint access-list 112 was modified to match the allocations. The problem was people wanted to announce smaller blocks than the allocation, e.g. /24's out of traditional class B/16 space.

Re: Time line for love bug alerts
by Sean Donelan 21 May '00

21 May '00

Due to some timezone problems, and machines with bad clocks, things aren't always what they seemed. In particular Bugtraq's extremely early alert appears to be a bad clock. I believe this is the actual order of alerts. I can't verify the Financial Services Information Sharing Alert, but this is the time given in the congressional hearing. Some folks sent me internal company alerts which were earlier, in some cases much earlier. A Swiss bank issued an intra-company alert very early. I suppose I wasn't clear, my interest was only "public," or at least semi-public alerts such as the FS/ISAC. So I've left private alerts out of the list, except for the intra-government ones discussed at the Senate hearing. One intersting thing came out during the Senate hearing. Things really haven't changed that much since the Internet Worm in 1988. People turned off their Internet connection which also kept them from getting the "cure." On the other side, out-of-date contact information and lack of an out-of-band method to alert people meant many didn't receive the alert because their e-mail systems had already been filled by the bug. 4-May-2000 07:00 UTC Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center (FS/ISAC) Alert (unverified), it remains unclear to me who FS/ISAC alerted, e.g. only its 22 member companies or others 4-May-2000 08:57 UTC alt.comp.virus posting from the UK 4-May-2000 09:45 UTC FBI/NIPC Watch Center notified by a representative from private industry 4-May-2000 10:17 UTC NANOG posting from BBC in UK 4-May-2000 10:40 UTC Department of Defense Joint Task Force for Computer Network Defense (JTF-CND) first alerted by a unit 4-May-2000 11:18 UTC Telecommunications Information Sharing and Analysis Center (T/ISAC) notified by a carrier, I have found no information T/ISAC notified any of its members 4-May-2000 11:44 UTC JTF-CND begins to notify DOD components 4-May-2000 11:45 UTC NIPC notifies FedCIRC about virus 4-May-2000 11:45 UTC FedCIRC begins to notify federal agencies 4-May-2000 12:54 UTC AP news story (Hong Kong) 4-May-2000 13:17 UTC Reuters news story(London) 4-May-2000 13:30 UTC ZDNet news story 4-May-2000 13:31 UTC F-Secure press release 4-May-2000 14:30 UTC CERT/CC public alert 4-May-2000 14:38 UTC Symantec press release 4-May-2000 15:00 UTC FBI/NIPC first public alert 4-May-2000 15:05 UTC Computer Associates press release 4-May-2000 16:19 UTC Trend Micro press release 4-May-2000 16:56 UTC Bugtraq posting
