Open Souce Network Operating Systems
by Colton Conor 04 May '18

04 May '18

If one were to deploy whitebox switches, X86 servers, low cost ARM and MIBPS CPE devices, and basically anything that can run linux today, what network operating system would you recommend? The goal would be to have a universal network operating system that runs across a variety of devices. >From low cost residential CPE's with wifi to switches to BGP speaking routers. Is there anything that can do it all today? I will use something like OpenWRT as an example. I don't consider this anywhere near carrier grade, but it runs on X86 and low cost routers. I don't think it will run on whitebox switches though. Mikrotik RouterOS would be another example as it can run on low cost Routerboards, and X86 servers. But it is not opensouce. Is there any up and coming projects to look into?

survey on BGP prefix hijacking
by Alberto Dainotti 02 May '18

02 May '18

Dear NANOG Community, BGP prefix hijacking remains a problem for Internet routing, despite the (partial) use of RPKI or detection services. We would like to hear your opinions on BGP prefix hijacking (concerns, existing defenses, needs, etc.) that would help us research new defense mechanisms both for its detection and mitigation. Please help us by answering this short (< 10min, 21 questions) and anonymous survey. Survey URL: http://tinyurl.com/hijack-survey *** The survey *** This survey is part of a joint research effort by CAIDA (www.caida.org) and the ICS-FORTH (www.ics.forth.gr) research institute, to study (a) operator awareness of BGP prefix hijacking attacks/incidents, (b) presently used defenses against BGP prefix hijacking, (c) the willingness to adopt new defense mechanisms, and (d) reasons that may hinder the deployment of BGP prefix hijacking defenses. We expect the findings of this survey to increase the understanding of existing BGP hijacking defenses and the needs of network operators, as well as help us design and implement new defense mechanisms that we will present to the operator and scientific communities. A summary of the aggregate results will be published as a part of an article/conference paper. Thank you in advance, and we look forward to your responses! Alberto (CAIDA) and Pavlos (ICS-FORTH)

"Weird" Traffic about 10 hours ago
by Mike Hammett 01 May '18

01 May '18

This is going to be extremely scientific. </sarcasm> Did anyone else see "weird" stuff going on about 10 hours ago, about 6 PM Central on April 30th? I'm based in the Chicago area and have a large client on the east coast. I saw about a 25% drop in traffic for a half hour to an hour. Another Midwestern ISP also saw about 25% drops on two different upstream connections. A friend of mine runs an ISP in Virginia. He reported a dip in traffic (though didn't report how much of a drop), but also pings and IPSEC\L2TP worked, but couldn't SSH or do other activities. That friend reported another ISP in Virginia had problems at that same time. An ISP in Cyprus reported issues at that time. I'm looking to firm up what kind of issues and verify the time. Yet other ISPs report no problems at all. Smooth ramps on traffic graphs as one would expect at the beginning of prime time. I thought maybe "something" happened in Ashburn (fiber cut, DWDM card failure, etc.) as my client has a wave from the east coast to me in Chicago, but then the Midwestern ISP shouldn't have any dependency on Ashburn, given Chicago and Dallas. Then there's the guy in Cyprus, which shouldn't have any bearing on anything that happens over here in the States. I thought maybe it was an epic failure at one of the CDNs or other content networks, but then that wouldn't impact SSH or other management activities. Anyone else have any other data to help figure out what caused this? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest-IX http://www.midwest-ix.com

Dear colleagues, Summary: The RIPE PC invites late submissions (30 min) and Lightning Talks (10 min) for RIPE 76 Plenary. Similar to RIPE 74, and distinct from other previous RIPE Meetings, the RIPE Programme Committee decided to keep one plenary slot open for a so-called "late submission". This plenary slot gives the community the opportunity to submit presentations that report on recent developments, issues, security incidents, etc., that are relevant to the RIPE audience. Also please consider submitting a Lightning Talk for the Monday plenary. During the meeting week, we will accept Lightning Talk submissions for Tuesday and Friday. Please submit your plenary "late submission" or Lightning Talk via the PC submission system: https://ripe76.ripe.net/submission-form/ The deadline for the late submission is *Monday, 7 May*. Kind regards, Benno Overeinder RIPE PC Chair https://ripe76.ripe.net/programme/ripe-pc/ -- Benno J. Overeinder NLnet Labs https://www.nlnetlabs.nl/

Remote power cycle recommendations
by Andy Ringsmuth 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

I’m sure many here are familiar with or using/have used devices to remotely power cycle equipment. I’m considering a Dataprobe iBoot-G2 and am curious if you’ve had experience with it, or other recommendations. I only need one outlet to be remotely power cycle-able. I have one piece of equipment that is occasionally a little flaky and, well, you know the hassle. What do people recommend? There seem to be plenty out there which are more designed to auto-reboot when Internet connectivity is lost, aka remotely reboot the ‘ol cable modem for instance, but that’s not my scenario. Thanks in advance. ---- Andy Ringsmuth andy(a)newslink.com News Link – Manager Technology, Travel & Facilities 2201 Winthrop Rd., Lincoln, NE 68502-4158 (402) 475-6397 (402) 304-0083 cellular
