more ISP regulation for UK ?
by jul 30 Oct '09

30 Oct '09

After Nederlands, things may also move in UK against eCrime + apComms backs ISP cleanup activity http://www.lightbluetouchpaper.org/2009/10/17/apcomms-backs-isp-cleanup-act… Extract: The All Party Parliamentary Communications Group (apComms) recently published their report into an inquiry entitled “Can we keep our hands off the net?” They looked at a number of issues, from “network neutrality” to how best to deal with child sexual abuse images. Read the report for the all the details; in this post I’m just going to draw attention to one of the most interesting, and timely, recommendations: 51. We recommend that UK ISPs, through Ofcom, ISPA or another appropriate organisation, immediately start the process of agreeing a voluntary code for detection of, and effective dealing with, malware infected machines in the UK. 52. If this voluntary approach fails to yield results in a timely manner, then we further recommend that Ofcom unilaterally create such a code, and impose it upon the UK ISP industry on a statutory basis. Best regards, Julien

EdgeWater EdgeMarc 4610W
by Jaimie Livingston 29 Oct '09

Has anyone had any recent direct experience with the EdgeWater EdgeMarc 4610W multi-service appliance used as a CPE device? I was recently handed a sales sheet on this swiss-army knife appliance, but there doesn't seem to be much publically available review of the beastie at the moment. If it is as advertised, it would be a very handy device as a CPE option... Thanks, Jaimie L.

Avantel Contact Information
by William C 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Does anyone have a technical or peering contact at Avantel who can address an apparent netblock hijacking issue? It seems that Avantel is advertising the 200.23.91.0/24 address space to their peers but they are unable to route to it for some reason. Level3's customers can though, and so can a whole bunch of the rest of the internet. Without posting all my traceroutes and route-views I'll just ask first as I'm sure there is a way to resolve this peacefully =] Any suggestions?

Hi NANOG, Long time lurker here - this is my first post. Is there anyone here from RBS Worldpay? I could do with a hand troubleshooting an HTTP POST timeout reported from their from their end causing trouble on a customer server during the payment stages. I can't figure out if this is a network or server issue.

Cox.net issues with their DNSBL
by Micheal Patterson 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

I'm not sure if this is the proper place to put this so I'll make this short. Cox.net is showing errors when I'm sending mail indicating that we're blocked by Invaluement, Cox error IPBL100. I've checked and my mx isn't listed. Attempts to contact the postmaster(a)cox.net address result in an autoresponder and then a bounce as that address is over quota. Is anyone else seeing this problem?

dealing with bogon spam ?
by Leslie 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

First off, I'm not certain if unallocated space in blocks less than a /8 is properly called bogon, so pardon my terminology if I'm incorrect. We're seeing a decent chunk of spam coming from an unallocated block of address space. We use CYMRU's great list of /8 bogon space to prevent completely off the wall abuse, but the granularity stops at /8's. Obviously, I've written the originating AS and its single upstream provider (sadly without any response). I'm not looking for a one time solution for this issue however -- I'd like to permanently block (and kick) anyone who's using unallocated space illegitimately. How have you dealt with this issue? Does anyone publish a more granular listing of unallocated space? Does arin have this information somewhere other than just probing any given ip via whois? Thanks! Leslie Craigslist Spam Hater

Redundant Data Center Architectures
by Stefan Fouant 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

I'm wondering what are the growing trends in connecting Data Centers for redundancy in DR/COOP environments. I imagine VPLS has a big play here, but I'm willing to bet there are all sorts of weirdness that such environments can create, such as the effect it may have on DR elections, etc. Also, what are your experiences in replication of storage over WAN links? Are people tending towards iSCSI or do trends indicate that FCoE or FCoIP may become the preferred mechanism? Any experience with WAN acceleration in such environments? Thanks in advance! -- Stefan Fouant
