AOL fixing Microsoft default settings
by Sean Donelan 24 Oct '03

24 Oct '03

Without notice AOL has been modifying the operating system settings of users with AOL software installed on Windows computers. Although complaints about Windows' Messenger pop-up spam continue to grow, few users bother to turn off the Windows' Messenger service. Starting two weeks ago AOL used the self-updating machanism in AOL's software to turn-off the Windows' Messenger service. AOL has turned it off on 15 million users computers so far. http://www.securityfocus.com/news/7278 How many other ISPs intend to follow AOL's practice and use their connection support software to fix the defaults on their customer's Windows computers?

Kind of OT for NANOG, you should go to cisco-nsp for these kinds of questions. However, to answer your question anyway you need an IP plus version of IOS to get 802.1q/ISL subifs on a 36xx router.

RE: NOAA warning for rf communications

Anything in the wireless or open air communications spectrum will be affected. Think of it as an electronic shower with the pressure being turned up and down over the next two weeks. It is definitely a problem for all radio spectrum users. The only media not affected is cable, to include fiber (this is if your cable is properly shielded).

China Telecom filtering nameservers
by Daniel Medina 24 Oct '03

24 Oct '03

Our main nameservers are being filtered from networks managed by CHINANET, Data Communications Division, China Telecom All traffic from our nameservers (ICMP, DNS queries, etc) is being dropped. As a result, many websites and mail servers with DNS hosted on networks which connect via China Telecom are inaccessible to users from our network. Only the IP addresses of our main nameservers are filtered. I have contacted China Telecom at hostmaster(a)ns.chinanet.cn.net noc(a)cn.net about this problem, but have received no response. Does anyone know of any good contacts at China Telecom, or know if there's some explanation for this? -- Daniel Medina Columbia University

Contact for AS237 (You know... MERIT :)
by Jeroen Massar 23 Oct '03

23 Oct '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- This might sound quite funny, but alas here it goes... I have been trying to contact AS237, and as the registry contains: <SNIP> OrgName: Merit Network Inc. OrgID: MICH <SNIP> ASNumber: 237 ASName: MERIT-AS-14 ASHandle: AS237 Comment: RegDate: 1988-09-12 Updated: 2002-10-01 OrgTechHandle: MICHN-ARIN OrgTechName: MichNet Operations OrgTechPhone: +1-734-936-0822 OrgTechEmail: michnet.operations(a)merit.edu - ---->8 I tried mailing michnet.operations(a)merit.edu but have not received any response as of yet. Is there somebody alive at Merit? ("we know those", yes they also host this mailinglist :) As for the why of contacting, we are very close in determining where the Ghost Routes in the IPv6 routing tables are coming from but we are still having difficulties contacting some parties. For 3ffe:1f00::/24, see GRH's url at: http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/lg/?show=evilbogons&find=::/0 The green ASN's are the ISP's feeding GRH so we can easily check if they have it or not. Thus we have left: ... 6175 [ 237 12199 10318 ] 5623 ... 6175 has it in it's table, 5623 doesn't, quite obviously 237 is passing it to 6175, but does 12199 give it to 237 ? :) So if 237 (MERIT) can enlighten us if they have it or not or even better set up a peering with GRH it would all make a huge difference. If anybody has contacts for 12199 (UUNET-RD) or 10318 who are the prime suspect, don't hesitate to speak up. On a related note 3ffe:8070::/28 is being announced by MERIT (237) but according to the registry it should be announced by 278. Who are also announcing it by the way. Something fishy at MERIT ? :) And if you got an IPv6 feed and want to share it check: http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/peering/ The more views the better as it does allow better checking where things go wrong.

BGP RFCs and BCPs - query
by Peter Galbavy 23 Oct '03

23 Oct '03

Sorry, I know many are going to think I should go and scan rfc-index.txt etc., but there is no real better group of people to ask for definitive pointers. I am going to be *trying* to work on some (free) BGP code and stuff aftre I leave my day job (tomorrow!), and I will be spending my spare time in the next week or two reviewing to current RFCs - I am about 3 years out of date in addition to any normal memory loss. Can anyone (off list) point me at the current active list of BGP and related RFCs, primarily for IPv4 but v6 info is welcome. What of the experimental attributes etc. are actually not experimental nowadays and any indication of vendor support compatibility issues that may be published. I *will* be reviewing the rfc-index.txt files but these lists never give the real world picture IMHO. I can summarise (on or off) the list if there is interest. rgds, -- Peter
