Re: level3_bx4-montrealak.net consistently dropping 50% of the packets
by Nick Cameo 20 Feb '14

| Since you dont see packet loss on the subsequent hops, this is likely just ICMP rate limiting on the control plane. MTR | sends quite a bit of ICMP so this is very common when using MTR. Not a "possible" reason for the degradation of voip from us to our service provider? Is there a more accurate test that will render more explanation? Thanks for the prompt Chris.

"Everyone should be deploying BCP 38! Wait, they are …."
by Jay Ashworth 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Here's a piece which uses the MIT ANA data to assert that the job is mostly done already. Unless I'm very much mistaken, it appears that a large percentage of the failed BCP 38 spoofing tests listed in that data are actually due to customer side NAT routers dropping packets... which is of course egress filtering rather than ingress filtering, and thus doesn't actually apply to our questions. Am I interpreting that correctly? http://www.senki.org/everyone-should-be-deploying-bcp-38-wait-they-are/ (Oh, and bcp38.info is now the number 2 Ghit for "bcp38"; thanks to 5 new contributors for signing up to help so far this week.)

Work Practices of Cyber Security Professionals
by Muhammad Adnan 18 Feb '14

18 Feb '14

Dear Sir/Madam, I am a university researcher who is investigating the development of new, usable tools that will improve the work practices of cyber security professionals. As a first step to achieve this goal, I am undertaking a survey to gain an in-depth understanding of the day-to-day activities of cyber security professionals. The targeted participants for this survey are those who perform security related activities as a part of their job (e.g. security analysts, network administrators, penetration testers). I would be very grateful if you could spare some time and complete this short (10 minutes) survey for me. It can be accessed at the following link: http://edu.surveygizmo.com/s3/1536165/Work-Practices-of-Cyber-Security-Prof… If you have questions or concerns about this research, please contact me ( Muhammad.Adnan(a)gcu.ac.uk) or my Ph.D. supervisor Dr. Mike Just ( Mike.Just(a)gcu.ac.uk) both at the Interactive and Trustworthy Technologies research group (http://www.ittgroup.org/) Glasgow Caledonian University, UK. Kind regards, Adnan

HP to Cisco fiber
by Eric J Esslinger 18 Feb '14

18 Feb '14

I've talked to HP and Cisco and neither side will commit to any kind of answer to this question, so I thought I'd ask it here: Does anyone know if a Cisco switch equipped with a 1000BASE-BX10-D SFP will connect to an HP switch equipped with a HP X122 1G SFP LC BX-U Transceiver J9143B SFP, assuming they are already talking over dual fiber links and both units support the single fiber sfp's? (they do). All the specs look like they should but Cisco and HP are doing the old 'will neither confirm nor deny interoperability'. Off list reply is fine, I'd like someone with a definite 'yes I did it and it works fine' or 'no I tried it and it did not', not 'it should' because that's where I'm at for the moment. ------------------------------------- Eric Esslinger Information Services Manager - Fayetteville Public Utilities http://www.fpunet.com/ (931)433-1522 ext 165 This message may contain confidential and/or proprietary information and is intended for the person/entity to whom it was originally addressed.

BCP38 filtering on Mobile IP networks
by Jay Ashworth 18 Feb '14

18 Feb '14

I note that the MIT ANA tester is only for desktop OSs, and none of the network tools I've collected for Android have BCP38 filter testing built in. Does anyone know if there are such tools for Android and for iOS? I assume that tether testing from a PC would be useless, as the NAT implementation would drop the packets -- does anyone know if there are any leaky NAT implementations that *won't* drop packets with bogus source addresses? Or, alternatively, does anyone know *authoritatively* that any cell carrier's mobile IP network already implements BCP38? And if so, why aren't they bragging about it; at least here? :-) I have added the Small Business page to BCP38.info. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
