The Cidr Report

This is an auto-generated mail on Fri Jun 19 12:00:01 PDT 1998 It is not checked before it leaves my workstation. However, hopefully you will find this report interesting and will take the time to look through this to see if you can improve the amount of aggregation you perform. The report is split into sections: 0) General Status List the route table history for the last week, list any possibly bogus routes seen and give some status on ASes. 1) Gains by aggregating at the origin AS level This lists the "Top 30" players who if they decided to aggregate their announced classful prefixes at the origin AS level could make a significant difference in the reduction of the current size of the Internet routing table. This calculation does not take into account the inclusion of holes when forming an aggregate so it is possible even larger reduction should be possible. 2) Weekly Delta A summary of the last weeks changes in terms of withdrawn and added routes. Please note that this is only a snapshot but does give some indication of ASes participating in CIDR. Clearly, it is generally a good thing to see a large amont of withdrawls. 3) Interesting aggregates Interesting here means not an aggregate made as a set of classful routes. Thanks to xara.net for giving me access to their routing tables once a day. Please send any comments about this report directly to me.

These also can be situations where layer two devices have private networks mixed in with public networks on the same VLAN. Remember broadcast address translation between layer 3 & 2 through a store-and-forward (or cut-through - any MIN type box will do this) switch will generate MAC layer frames and deliver them out of each port in the VLAN. I know broadcast pings on a Cisco device that is connected to a switch, where the output interface has IP block A, and the VLAN has IP blocks C, D, E, will result in replies from all networks connected to the VLAN, not just the IP block configured on the router. This is why on almost every attack we've seen here, there have been RFC 1918 addresses invlved as amplifiers. Christian

My apologies. I confused Karl Denninger with Karl Auerbach, who is an attorney. In response to Karl Denninger: At 2:16 PM -0400 6/18/98, Karl Denninger wrote: >Dean, you keep changing your tune. > >First you said *any* spamblocking was illegal. Yes. Any spam blocking when you aren't a party to the email is illegal. Nor is it a departure from anything I have said, previously. So, does this mean you agree that *some* spamblocking is illegal? (I suspect not, but surprise me.) This reads like a political attack. (#25: claim your opponent has waffled, but offer no evidence that anything is different). But I'm not running for any office. My credibility has no relevance to the truth of whether or not 2511 can apply to network providers. Its federal law. Network providers and employees ought to be roughly aware of the laws which apply to them. And certainly not misled. It is obvious now that it can apply. Its also just as clear that there are some legal limitations on what network providers can do with "their equipment". >Now you're looking for someone who is spamblocking IN TRANSIT (ie: not to >or from an end customer). As I have said before, transit providers are clearly not parties to transiting traffic. And I was looking for a Network Service (transit) provider before. >How would THAT come about, pray tell? Do you know how modern SMTP based >email actually *works*? Yes, but apparently you don't. This isn't the only way its handled. Some people "transparently" intercept SMTP. 6 months ago I pointed out UUCP as well. And there is also route filtering via BGP RBL. If they aren't a party to the communication, then its illegal. (like I said before) I'm really disappointed that people keep claiming that 2511 can't possibly apply to a network provider, in spite of the now overwhelming proof to the contrary. But then apparently 2/3s of the democrats think that Clinton didn't screw Monica. And some people think Nixon didn't break any laws. I can't change that sort of blind belief. 6 months ago, I could understand that behavior, since I was offering my opinion based on my reading the text of the statute. It was arguable, and I argued well, I think, but perhaps not well enough. But given the revelations of the 1988 amendment and its hearings, which support my reading of the text, and everything I said 6 months ago and am saying now, I just can't believe there are still people who argue this. At this point, there is nothing to be gained by argument on the applicability of 2511 to network providers. All the evidence is now available, make your own decision. I've brought it to your attention. --Dean ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Plain Aviation, Inc dean(a)av8.com LAN/WAN/UNIX/NT/TCPIP/DCE http://www.av8.com We Make IT Fly!

RFC781 timestamp
by Hirohisa TANIGUCHI 19 Jun '98

19 Jun '98

Has anyone tried to get timestamp from routers by RFC781 ip timestamp option? Or is their any tool that utilizes this IP option? I've modified ping progam so that IP timestamp option is set, but: (1) If option flag is set to 3 (i.e. timestamp for only prespecified addresses), it seems all routers simply ignore it. (2) If option flag is set to 1 (i.e. address and timestamp all the way), routers actually do timestamping. Especially when I ping a ROUTER itself with flag=3 timestamp option, with their own address prespecified, no router seems to give their timestamp. But when I ping a HOST (I 've tried Solaris,FreeBSD) it does answer. CISCO documentation says IP timestamp option is implemented, so I'm wondering... bye -- H.Taniguchi (taniguti(a)ntttqn.tnl.ntt.co.jp)

Routing registries
by Bradley Dunn 19 Jun '98

19 Jun '98

Here is a tip. If the routing registry in which one has registered his or her routes runs out of disk space, bad things can happen. If one's providers and/or peers filter based on routing registry data, it would be wise to regularly, perhaps daily, verify that one's objects have not "disappeared" from the registry. Don't think it can't happen, because it did. Bradley
