Friday Fun: UK Government (Dept of Work & Pensions) selling off an entire "/8"
by Alec Muffett 13 Mar '15

13 Mar '15

Perhaps I'm odd, but I find the novelty of this to be amusing: IPv4 Market Group Announces the Availability of a Significant Portfolio of > IPv4 Addresses for Purchase in the RIPE Region: > > IPv4 Market Group, a global leader in IPv4 sales, has just announced the > availability of up to 2.6 million top quality IPv4 addresses for purchase > in the RIPE region. The firm’s Executive Vice President for Business > Development, Jeff Mehlenbacher, said that the IPv4 blocks are being offered > in multiples of /16, with up to 7 contiguous /16’s and 40 /16’s in total > IPs. ...deletia... http://ipv4marketgroup.com/ipv4-addresses-ripe-region/ It's related to this blogpost: https://governmenttechnology.blog.gov.uk/2015/02/19/freeing-up-unused-ip-ad… ...and I gather that perhaps - although it's currently being marketed as a bunch of /16s - they might also entertain the possibility of selling it as an entire /8 for a reasonable price. I'm wondering: have we passed the point of peak IPv4 scarcity? Is selling an entire /8 still a viable proposition? Apparently UK Gov may have more than one... - alec -- http://dropsafe.crypticide.com/aboutalecm

The original principle had little thought toward security, and i was there for the row for which Eric's paper was almost certainly inspired by (started it, actually). In the early days, a lot of people to took it as trying very hard to make sense of the broken -- far beyond rfc 2119's musts and shoulds. A lot of people regret that now for a lot of reasons, including security. I still have mixed emotions about abandoning it. Mike

Broken/trashed/junk Juniper MX5/80 and Cisco 2921 chassis?
by Daniel Rohan 12 Mar '15

12 Mar '15

Hey all, Sorry for the x-post with j-nsp, but I'm looking for something that seems to be a bit hard to find and I'm hoping that someone in the larger community might be able to help. I'm trying to find a totally broken, cheap, MX5/80 and a Cisco 2921 chassis that I can use for demonstration trainings with our edge technicians. We're currently running the demos with spare gear, but even though we transport this gear in shock-mounted cases, I'd much rather be transporting dummy equipment. Our SEs don't have a line on this kind of gear either. Aparently this type of gear is destroyed or refurbished, but there isn't much demand for broken equipment sitting around staying broken. If you have a line on some of this gear that you'd be willing to share, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Dan

Brocade CES Routing Table Issue
by Jordan Hamilton 12 Mar '15

12 Mar '15

I have been troubleshooting an issue with Brocade TAC in regards to our Brocade CES that we use for some static routing. The Firmware has been upgraded and hardware has been replaced and still the problem is occurring. I have talked to some other carriers I work with that have previously used Brocade gear and switched because of odd issues that could not be resolved. Curious if anyone on this list has had other odd Layer 3 issues with Brocade/Foundry Networks gear? My issue seems to be somehow related to the table in memory that the ARP and next-hop entries are stored in, entries will point to the wrong mac address or the wrong port for the next-hop, it happens about every 60 days like clockwork.

distinguishing eBGP from show ip BGP
by Reza Motamedi 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

Hi Nanog, For a research I want to distinguish the external AS peering from "show ip BGP". In other words I want to see which entry show a path that immediately sends packets to another AS. My understanding is that *status code* shows if the route is internal, right? Does this mean if the *'i' *is not present, the route is goes out of the AS in the next hop. On the same note, can I use "Next Hop" to identify such entries? I just included a sample report from a public looking glass in XO. show ip bgp 207.108.0.0/15 longer-prefixes BGP table version is 529230540, local router ID is 65.106.7.145 * * *Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal, r RIB-failure, S Stale, m multipath, b backup-path, x best-external, f RT-Filter, a additional-path Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight Path * 207.108.0.0/15 216.156.2.164 3 0 2828 209 i * 65.106.7.101 2 0 2828 209 i * 65.106.7.246 3 0 2828 209 i * 65.106.7.55 3 0 2828 209 i *> 216.156.2.162 2 0 2828 209 i * 65.106.7.54 3 0 2828 209 i * 65.106.7.252 2 0 2828 209 i * 216.156.2.160 2 0 2828 209 i * 65.106.7.56 3 0 2828 209 i * 216.156.2.165 2 0 2828 209 i * 65.106.7.144 2 0 2828 209 i Best Regards Reza Motamedi (R.M) Graduate Research Fellow Oregon Network Research Group Computer and Information Science University of Oregon

Purpose of spoofed packets ???
by Matthew Huff 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

We recently got an abuse report of an IP address in our net range. However, that IP address isn't in use in our networks and the covering network is null routed, so no return traffic is possible. We have external BGP monitoring, so unless something very tricky is going on, we don't have part of our prefix hijacked. I assume the source address was spoofed, but this leads to my question. Since the person that submitted the report didn't mention a high packet rate (it was on ssh port 22), it doesn't look like some sort of SYN attack, but any OS fingerprinting or doorknob twisting wouldn't be useful from the attacker if the traffic doesn't return to them, so what gives? BTW, we are in the ARIN region, the report came out of the RIPE region. ---- Matthew Huff | 1 Manhattanville Rd Director of Operations | Purchase, NY 10577 OTA Management LLC | Phone: 914-460-4039 aim: matthewbhuff | Fax: 914-694-5669
