A perceived 90% drop in performance is pretty significant and I'd imagine that they'd be interested in helping to determine the cause. John --

Re: CiSCO IOS 12.* source code stolen
by Joe Shen 18 May '04

18 May '04

Hi, What makes me excited at this news is, is there a chance to learn details of IOS which may be one of most successful protocol implementations. And, if such code is available to both college and engineers it will surelly do good to our life. So, I'll be glad to see the releasing of those codes as what happened to Microsoft.

Needless to say, the suggestion was met with >"some" resistance, mildly speaking. ---- Msg sent via Spymac Mail - http://www.spymac.com

Verizon text messaging
by Gregory (Grisha) Trubetskoy 18 May '04

18 May '04

Perhaps this is slightly OT, but if you rely on Verizon text messaging for notification, beware that they have implemented some sort of filtering as of last night it seems. Talking to their support they will not admit to any changes, but I have lost a few important notifications yesterday. After some experimentation, it looks like that at least messages to @vtext.com have to be explicitely addressed now (i.e. "To" has to be 123123123(a)vtext.com) and there are other rules that I have not figured out yet. Perhaps there is someone from Verizon on this list who would confirm that filtering was indeed added yesterday? Here is usenet article supporting my theory: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=vtext&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&scoring=d&selm=R… Grisha

Does anyone anyone know if there is still someone working at Maps.org, Paul . . . ? The phone works but is redirected to 408-453-6277 and seems to loop. Best Regards, Peter

Pay-As-You-Use High-Speed Internet?
by Jonathan M. Slivko 18 May '04

18 May '04

Hello Fellow NANOG'ers, I was just thinking about this - tell me if it sounds reasonable? The company that I work for developed a piece of technology which, through rate-limit statements, allow customers to buy/sell bandwidth "on demand". Now, I was thinking: "Why can't we take this technology that we've tested successfully in a colo environment and adapt it a little bit for personal/buisness-class ISP's to allow them to bill for the bandwidth that a customer uses, and only that with the exception of a base monthly fee (to cover the DSL/T1 loop, e-mail services, support, etc.) of a few dollars. Personally, I would like to see a senario where everyone just pays for what they use - it would be a much better system for allowing people who don't neccessarily need to get on the Internet at high-speed, get on high-speed which will not only increase revenue for the ISP's, but also for the customer who can now use DSL/T1 access in a much more effective way.

ngrep question
by Scott Weeks 18 May '04

18 May '04

Hello Everyone, I have a curious question for those of you that use ngrep (http://sourceforge.net/projects/ngrep/) I see strange IP addresses and was wondering if any of you had seen these reserved IP addresses on your networks. T 175.157.10.10 -> 102.211.0.0 +1540@8:46 T 97.176.10.10 -> 103.255.0.0 +1540@8:46 T 90.68.10.10 -> 103.233.0.0 +1540@8:46 T 175.157.10.10 -> 102.211.0.0 +1540@8:46 T 143.226.10.10 -> 3.82.0.0 +1540@8:46 I am having trouble finding anything on the web. The only correlation I see is they all seem to have "+1540@8:46" and the last two octets of the sender are x.x.10.10 and the last two octets of the receiver are x.x.0.0 Thanks, scott
