by Olivier CALVANO 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

Hello, I work for a French operator, so I know well wholesales solutions E1/Sdsl/Adsl online a few countries Europe. I am looking to find how wholesales work in the U.S., basically, we would be in New York City and would have a wholesales Dsl/T1 issued or L2TP VLAN. I tried contact operators like Qwest or AT & T but impossible to have a credible interlocutor. So I posted in the nanog as I turn a little too round. Someone on the list could give me information on the techniques and the average price of trunk? Is there a solution that allows me to connect one site whatever it either the USA in Q1 was my point of presence in New York City? Thank you in advance olive

AT&T Email/SMS gateway outage
by Drew Linsalata 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

Marginally operational, but I'm sure there are at least a few folks using that service as part of monitoring, so it probably bears mentioning. AT&T appears to be having an email-to-SMS gateway issue. Messages sent to xxxyyyyyyy(a)txt.att.net are not being delivered to handsets. No bounce, but no delivery either. As a workaround, messages sent to xxxyyyyyyy(a)mms.att.netdo do get delivered. Confirmed in the NYC metro area and in Chicago at the moment.

Mac OS X Lion has DHCPv6
by Ray Soucy 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

Just wanted to drop a note as a was pretty harsh on Apple when rumors of them not including DHCPv6 client support were floating about. In the past few days I've also seen people post that OS X doesn't have DHCPv6, because they were looking for "DHCPv6" in the UI. Thankfully these reports are false. Just tried it myself on a newly upgraded Mac. Quick testing shows that when "Automatic" is used for the IPv6 setting, OS X will correctly look at the A, M, and O flags of an IPv6 RA and make use of DHCPv6 when instructed to. Thank you to everyone at Apple who made this happen. Especially James Woodyatt, who I gave a piratically hard time to wearing my end-user hat ;-) -- Ray Soucy Epic Communications Specialist Phone: +1 (207) 561-3526 Networkmaine, a Unit of the University of Maine System http://www.networkmaine.net/

high performance open source DHCP solution?
by Rogelio 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

The free DHCP solution, ISC, seems to be having scaling issues (i.e. handling only about 200 DHCPDISCOVER and 20 DHCPRENEW requests), and I was wondering if anyone had any open source suggestions of solutions that could scale much better? (Ideally, I could find a free version of a solution like Nominum, but I know that's asking for much.) Anyone have any suggestions? -- Also on LinkedIn?

That only helps you in situations where entering an IPv6 is unsupported because the parser chokes on the ':' or does not support scope identifiers. The app itself still needs to resolve that literal using getaddrinfo() into a valid IPv6 address (and scope-id) for it to make any sense of it. For apps that don't support IPv6 the only way you are (likely) getting them to to talk to IPv6 capable services is to proxy them. Good old SOCKS is a great one there and otherwise one of the various TCP forwarders (on windows one can use: netsh interface portproxy add v4tov6 listenport=80 connectaddress=theipv6nox connectport=80) Greets, Jeroen
