Ransom DDoS attack - need help!
by halp us 18 Jul '25

18 Jul '25

All, I've been a NANOG member for many years but I'm emailing from an anonymous account to reduce the chance of the attackers finding me. A company that shall remain anonymous has received a ransom DDoS note from a very well known group that has been in the news lately. Recently they've threatened to carry out a major DDoS attack if they are not paid by a deadline which is approaching. They've performed an attack of a smaller magnitude to prove that they're serious. Based on certain details that I can't reveal here, we believe the magnitude of the upcoming attack may be in the several hundred Gbps. I would really appreciate help in a few areas (primarily with certain provider contacts/intros) so we can execute our strategy (which I can't reveal here for obvious reasons). If you email me off-list with a name/email that you've previously used on-list, I will reply from my real email. Alternatively, if you can post your experiences on-list with large scale high profile ransom DDoS attacks, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks

IPv6 Residential Deployment Survey
by John Curran 24 Jan '19

24 Jan '19

NANOGers - If you are providing residential Internet service with IPv6 (or are a customer of same), please take a moment to complete Jordi’s survey - this will help provide insight into the actual technical practices being used in residential IPv6 deployment. More details in attached email - Thanks! /John Begin forwarded message: From: John Curran <jcurran(a)arin.net<mailto:jcurran@arin.net>> Subject: [arin-ppml] IPv6 Residential Deployment Survey Date: May 22, 2016 at 6:24:17 AM GMT+2 To: ARIN PPML <ppml(a)arin.net<mailto:ppml@arin.net>> Folks - Jordi Palet Martínez is conducting a brief survey regarding IPv6 deployment in residential Internet service. Having insight into the various practices that are in use may help to inform IPv6 number resource policy development, and thus I ask that you take a moment to complete the survey if you are providing such services (whether production or trial basis.) Jordi notes - "The results will be published and updated every month or so - No personal data will be published. (If you know your network, it takes less than 2 minutes to complete it) The survey can be responded even if is not yet a commercial service, and customers can also respond, not just the ISP. However, to avoid duplicate data, make sure to include the country and ISP name.” The IPv6 Residential Deployment Survey may be found here - <http://survey.consulintel.es/index.php/175122> Thanks! /John John Curran President and CEO ARIN

Quanta LB4M
by Mike Hammett 20 Apr '18

20 Apr '18

Has anyone gotten a "non-factory" firmware to go onto these guys? There are a couple threads on Google that are inconclusive. There are rumors that it's the same as a Dell something or an HP something else, but no one has outright said, "I loaded a Dell XXXX firmware onto it and solved all of the random ass bugs." If I didn't already have a couple of stacked Extreme x400s, I'd consider these at home, but they're somewhat buggy. Quanta told me to contact whomever I bought it from... but I don't think the random guy on eBay is going to have much of anything useful to say. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com

Why the internal network delays, Gmail?
by Nate Metheny 21 Jun '17

21 Jun '17

Help (and hi)! I work in higher education and we've been experiencing problems with Google delaying or queuing email for delivery to our domain. Here's some truncated email headers: ** Example 1: X-Received: by 10.237.55.65 with SMTP id i59mr10986018qtb.62.1472137448952; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 08:04:08 -0700 (PDT) Received: by mail-qt0-f175.google.com with SMTP id u25so27419242qtb.1 for <@***>; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 12:05:46 -0700 (PDT) ** Example 2: X-Received: by 10.36.1.75 with SMTP id 72mr5275579itk.40.1472130531887; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 06:08:51 -0700 (PDT) Received: by mail-it0-f48.google.com with SMTP id x131so289116132ite.0 for <@***>; Thu, 25 Aug 2016 11:50:42 -0700 (PDT) In both of these examples, these emails haven't even left Google's internal network yet; I'm getting blamed for these delays, however there is no delay in receiving these emails after they leave Google's network. Are other people having this same problem? I've tested delivery to my network from many outside sources and all SMTP requests go through without delay; this issue seems be exclusive to Google-hosted and Gmail accounts and domains. -- Nate <natemetheny(a)gmail.com>nate(a)dopedesign.com

Multi-port RFC2544/EtherSAM loopback appliance
by Jason Lixfeld 25 May '17

25 May '17

Group, I'm looking for options and opinions on a cost effective, multi-port (6'ish port SFP/SFP+) RFC2544/EtherSAM rack appliance that can act as the remote/loopback for our field installers' portable RFC2544/EtherSAM enabled Exfo test sets. I came across XenaNetworks XenaCompact which looks like it would fit the bill, but I'm sure there are others (save Ixia, Exfo and Fluke, which I'm pretty much excluding by default because I imagine they are likely completely out to lunch on price relative to the extremely simplified feature set we require). Thanks in advance.

BCP 38 coverage if top x providers ...
by Frank Bulk 24 Mar '17

24 Mar '17

My google fu is failing me, but I believe there was a NANOG posting a year or two ago that mentioned that if the top x providers would implement BCP 38 then y% of the traffic (or Internet) would be de-spoofed. The point was that we don't even need everyone to implement BCP 38, but if the largest (transit?) providers did it, then UDP reflection attacks could be minimized. If someone can recall the key words in that posting and dig it up, that would be much appreciated. Frank

Disney Brands GeoIP Contact
by James Baldwin 03 Dec '16

03 Dec '16

Does anyone have contacts at Disney or an associated brand (Hulu, Disney, ESPN)? They all appear to have out of date or incorrect GeoIP information for our Level3 block. I have been able to whitelist our corporate locations with Hulu however I have been unable to reach anyone at the other sites. I would love to find out which third party they are using for their information and correct the problem at the source (MaxMind is correct). - James

Comcast business IPv6 vs rbldnsd & PSBL
by Rik van Riel 03 Dec '16

03 Dec '16

First of all, kudos to Comcast for trying to roll out IPv6 across their entire network. Static IPv6 netblocks seem to be available for Comcast business users, and IPv6 is enabled unconditionally in the CPE routers used by Comcast business class internet. Unfortunately, the software in the two available CPE routers (SMC & Cisco) is horribly broken when it comes to IPv6. The TL;DR summary: even when IPv6 firewalling is disabled in the configuration, the router still tracks every IPv6 "connection", which causes every single DNS lookup to fill up a slot in its connection tracking table. The router's logs say it blocks tens of thousands of IPv6 connections every day, despite firewalling being "disabled" on the router. Once the connection tracking table fills up, both IPv6 and IPv4 start having trouble, with packet loss on ICMP, high ping times to the local router (and the internet), and new connections not establishing. The router randomly crashes and reboots too, sometimes multiple times a day. This ends up breaking both IPv6 and IPv4. It only takes about 300kbit/s of DNS traffic to trigger the bug, in both the SMC and the Cisco routers. Are there any Comcast NOC or other technical people present who could help? I am interested both in helping resolve the firmware issues in the routers (there will no doubt be other customers who hit this in the future, as IPv6 becomes ore common) or, if that is not an option, finding some way to avoid the issue. http://forums.businesshelp.comcast.com/t5/Equipment-Modems-Gateways/Cis co-DPC3941B-slows-to-a-crawl-and-crashes-several-times-a-day/td-p/30807 -- All Rights Reversed.
