IANA IPv4 allocations and bogon updates: 121/8, 122/8, and 123/8
by Rob Thomas 09 Jan '06

09 Jan '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- [ Apologies to those of you who receive this note in multiple forums. ] Hi, team. The numerous Team Cymru bogon projects have been updated as of 05 JAN 2006 to reflect the following IANA allocation made on 05 JAN 2006: 121/8 Jan 06 APNIC (whois.apnic.net) 122/8 Jan 06 APNIC (whois.apnic.net) 123/8 Jan 06 APNIC (whois.apnic.net) IANA allocations change over time, so please check regularly to ensure you have the latest filters if you are not using the bogon BGP feed(s). We do announce updates to the bogon projects to sundry lists, such as the bogon-announce list. We can not stress this point strongly enough - these allocations change. If you do not adjust your filters, you will be unable to access perhaps large portions of the Internet. Worse yet, you may end up blocking access for people who transit through you. Please do not apply any filters or blocks to your network without carefully considering the ramifications of doing so. As a point of reference, the Team Cymru master Bogon Reference Page can be found here: <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/> A quick summary of the documents and projects that have been updated include the following: HTTP The Bogon List - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/bogon-list.html> The Text Bogon Lists - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/bogon-bn-nonagg.txt> - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/bogon-bn-agg.txt> Secure BIND Template - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-bind-template.html> Secure IOS Template (Cisco) - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-ios-template.html> Secure BGP Template (Cisco) - <http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-bgp-template.html> Secure JUNOS Template (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-template.htm> Secure JUNOS BGP Template (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-bgp-template.htm> Ingress Prefix Filter Templates, Loose and Strict (Cisco) - <ftp://ftp-eng.cisco.com/cons/isp/security/Ingress-Prefix- Filter-Templates/> Ingress Prefix Filter Template, Loose (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-isp-prefix- filter-loose.htm> Ingress Prefix Filter Template, Strict (Juniper) - <http://www.cymru.com/gillsr/documents/junos-isp-prefix- filter-strict.htm> BGP Bogon route-server for AUTOMATED updates of bogon filters - All bogon route-server peers have already received the appropriate BGP prefix updates. - <http://www.cymru.com/BGP/bogon-rs.html> RADb fltr-unallocated fltr-martian fltr-bogons - <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/index.html#radb> RIPE NCC fltr-unallocated fltr-martian fltr-bogons - <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/index.html#ripe> DNS Bogon (bogons.cymru.com) zone - <http://www.cymru.com/Bogons/index.html#dns> Monitoring Bogon prefix monitoring - <http://www.cymru.com/BGP/robbgp-bogon.html> Bogus ASN monitoring - <http://www.cymru.com/BGP/asnbogusrep.html> Please feel free to contact Team Cymru <team-cymru(a)cymru.com> with any comments, questions, or concerns.

Dual fiber outages causes service disruption
by Sean Donelan 09 Jan '06

09 Jan '06

http://www2.sprint.com/mr/news_dtl.do?id=9680 At the time the cut occurred west of Phoenix, Sprint Nextel was conducting emergency maintenance to its fiber optic network near Reno Junction, Calif., which is near Reno, Nev. The traffic passing through Reno was being temporarily routed through the network near Phoenix as part of the standard emergency maintenance plan. This resulted in a "dual" fiber cut affecting traffic going to and coming from the west coast and other western parts of the United States.

West Coast broken / Sprint problems

More updates from my contact at Sprint and there's some interesting factoids in here: "There are some locations east of the Rockies that are experiencing issues. Sprint network control centers have multiple bridges activated and are exploring restoration opportunities. 1,401 DS3s and 42 Sonet Rings impacted. We have 3+ fiber techs at the cut site. It has not been confirmed if this is impacting multiple carriers." He followed up at 1717 Central to add, "20 of the 40 have been restored. I was told the other 20 should be restored within an hour. I am trying to confirm the ETR and to ensure it includes all the ds3s."

Got confirmation from my Sprint service manager that there's a fairly major cut. I quote, "Currently, Sprint has been impacted by a major network event (fiber cut) on the West Coast. This fiber cut has impacted both data and voice services. I will provide updates ASAP...." This was followed up about 8 minutes later with, "The fiber cut occurred outside of Phoenix. The fiber techs should have arrive at 4pm CT." Since $employer uses Sprint exclusively for WAN and voice services, I've lost everything in Arizona and California. I've also noticed spotty service in Westminster, CO.

Yes, we have connections through Sprint, and they are having issues. They've told us it was a mud slide and a major fiber cut...

Sprint Problems?
by Crist Clark 09 Jan '06

09 Jan '06

Having trouble getting anything out of our Sprint rep. Rumors of fiber whack. Problems out here in San Jose, California and in Texas, Waco vicinity. Hard to say whether some of our problems over the rest of North America are related to Texas and California or more widespread. Voice and data problems. Anyone have better info on what, where, and resolution? -- Crist J. Clark crist.clark(a)globalstar.com Globalstar Communications (408) 933-4387
