I don't know that is true. I believe voice network was overwhelmed. Wireless data and sms had no issue or interruption whatsoever.

VRF/MPLS on Linux
by nanog＠rhemasound.org 26 Aug '11

26 Aug '11

While I have found some information on a project called linux-mpls I am having a hard time finding any solid VRF framework for Linux. I have a monitoring system that needs check devices that sit in overlapping private ip space, and I was wondering if there is anyway I could use some kind or VRF type solution that would allow me to label the "site" the traffic is intended for. The upstream router supports VRF/MPLS, but I need to know how I can get the server to label the traffic. I would appreciate any input. --- Brian Raaen Network Architect braaen(a)zcorum.com

Switch las vegas makes the same claim. KY is def prone to the affects of a hurricane. But if you have a roof and reasonable drainage, you will be ok.

CFP: Special Issue of COMPUTER NETWORS (ELSEVIER) on 'Botnet Activity: Analysis, Detection and Shutdown'
by Guofei Gu 24 Aug '11

24 Aug '11

CFP: Special Issue of COMPUTER NETWORS (ELSEVIER) on "Botnet Activity: Analysis, Detection and Shutdown" Apologies for multiple copies of this announcement. ------------------------- Dear Colleagues, Please consider the following opportunity to submit and publish original scientific results to a SPECIAL ISSUE of COMPUTER NETWORKS (ELSEVIER journal) on "Botnet Activity: Analysis, Detection and Shutdown". The submission deadline is set to December 1st, 2011. http://ees.elsevier.com/comnet/ A pdf version of this CFP is available at http://faculty.cse.tamu.edu/guofei/CFP_COMNET-Botnets.pdf Please help distribute. Thanks! ------------------------- Large scale attacks and criminal activities experienced in recent years have exposed the Internet to serious security breaches, and alarmed the world regarding cyber crime. In the center of this problem are the so called botnets -- collections of infected zombie machines (bots) controlled by the botmaster to perpetrate malicious activities and massive attacks. Some recent botnets are composed of millions of infected machines, making use of this attack vector inevitably harmfully. Hence, it is paramount to detect, analyze and shutdown such overlay networks before they become active. Research on botnet activity is mostly related to detection and disruption. Detection of botnets has focused on monitoring bot activities, especially during the spread of malicious software to infect new hosts (initial infection phase) and the communication messages exchanged between bots and botmasters (rallying and updating phases). Some behavioral aspects are common: bots have to signal the botmaster informing they are alive, each time their hosts are started; bots send messages whenever connecting and joining with the botnet; the botmaster has to send commands to each zombie machine before initiating malicious activities. This special issue of Computer Networks is intended to foster the dissemination of high quality research in all aspects regarding botnet activity, detection and countermeasures. The objective of this special issue is to publish papers presenting detection algorithms, traffic monitoring and identification, protocols and architectures, as well as botnet modeling, behavior, simulation, statistics, dissemination, analysis, preventive procedures and possible countermeasures. Only technical papers describing previously unpublished, original, state-of-the-art research, and not currently under review by a conference or journal will be considered. We solicit papers in a variety of topics related to botnet research including, but not limited to: - Traffic Monitoring and Detection Algorithms - Data Collection, Statistics and Analysis - Modeling Behavior and Simulation - Protocols and Architectures (IRC, HTTP, P2P, etc) - Firewalls and IDS - Cyber Crime Case Studies - Reverse Engineering and Automated Analysis of Bots - Honeypots and Honeynets - New Platforms: Cellular and Wireless networks, Mobile devices, TV, etc. - Legal Issues and Countermeasures - Underground Markets, Vulnerability Markets and Zero-day Economics - Mini-Botnets Guest Editors Ronaldo Salles Military Institute of Engineering PraçGeneral Tibú 80, 22290-270, R.J.

PacketDesign
by Mahan, Mark 24 Aug '11

Does anyone have operational experience with PacketDesign's Route Explorer or Traffic Explorer products? I'm curious to hear how/if the product helps network monitoring and modeling, particularly an MPLS-VPN service provider network. I'd appreciate hearing about any woes also. We are obtaining some demo units to test drive soon but their products aren't cheap I'd like to hear how they hold up after the test of time and after some user experience. Thanks, Mark
