"...each party bears a reasonably equal share of backbone burdens – taking into account the amount of traffic carried by each party and the distance over which that traffic is carried." "One fundamental aspect of the new policy is a requirement that carriers adjust routing practices and interconnection locations so that the distance and volume of traffic carried by each party on their backbone network remains equitable." "If one party to a settlement-free peering relationship is carrying far less traffic over far less distances than the other party, the policy would require changes to interconnection locations and routing to more equitably distribute the burden of carrying traffic and thus preserve a fair settlement-free peering relationship" Hopefully, I am not accidentally trolling as has happened in the past... :-) scott

With all of Apple's updates today (MacOS, iOS, Apps, etc) we saw a big increase on one of our links to our ISP at 1pm Eastern. Did anyone else notice significant traffic jumps on their networks? [image: image.png]

Hello all, Can someone from Google, clue-full about the malware list, please contact me offlist. It appears that several customer servers have had their sites listed simply because they originate from our ASN. If anyone has any experience with this, thoughts and ideas are more than welcome. Thanks James

Botnets buying up IPv4 address space

I'd welcome comments as to solutions to this. Or is it just scaremongering? j ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lauren Weinstein <lauren(a)vortex.com> Date: Fri, Oct 7, 2011 at 1:31 PM Botnets buying up IPv4 address space http://j.mp/nMJ5Lr (Threat Post) "Now, in one effort to get around these systems, some attackers are taking advantage of the lack of IPV4 space by either purchasing or renting blocks of IP space with good reputations that have been built up over the course of several years. A number of legitimate trading and auction sites have appeared as the IPV4 space became scarcer, and the attackers have gotten involved as well, getting their hands on known good IP blocks and using them for C&C or hosting malware." - - - --Lauren-- NNSquad Moderator -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Joly MacFie 218 565 9365 Skype:punkcast WWWhatsup NYC - http://wwwhatsup.com http://pinstand.com - http://punkcast.com VP (Admin) - ISOC-NY - http://isoc-ny.org -------------------------------------------------------------- -

DPI deployment use case
by Claudio Lapidus 12 Oct '11

12 Oct '11

Hello all, We have had a number of DPI boxes (SCE8080) sitting in the access network for a while now, so far they served mainly for congestion management and such, and are wondering if there are some real use case in the fine-grained service control land (as the vendors keep whispering in out ears...) Anyway, we are reviewing a couple of service manager solutions, but I would like to hear from you operators, what actual use cases have you seen in the field (if any) for DPI'ing user sessions, considering we are mostly a DSL shop. thanks in advance, cl.
