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

Cogent sales reps who actually respond

Hi fellow network operators, Do any orgs here have experience with a good Cogent rep? The rep we got via Cogent's website is unresponsive to even basic questions. It feels like we are dealing with a bot and copy-pasted replies. Thanks Ruldu

DNS Recursive Operators: Please enable QNAME minimization (RFC7816) for the enhanced privacy of your users
by Jeroen Massar 12 Mar '20

12 Mar '20

Hi Folks, While in the US soon all Firefox users will *NOT* use your DNS Recursives configured using DHCP anymore (NXDOMAIN use-application-dns.net to avoid that[1]). Next to that, it seems some of the root operators are now creating instances in the same networks that offer these kind of services for globally figuring out what queries are being made. For those that thus either opt-out or otherwise want to use their own system resolvers, I suggest that all that run DNS Recursive setups enable "QNAME minimization" as defined in (experimental) RFC7816 [2] For pdns "qname-minimization=yes" [6] For unbound "qname-minimisation: yes" [5] For BIND "qname-minimization" option [3] and [4] Of course, do also provider your users with the option of using DoT or even DoH on your recursors... Noting that DoH operators are supposed to enable RFC7816 also [7], guess they do not want others to see all the details they get... Some more details in DNS Privacy Wiki [8]... Discuss! :) Greets, Jeroen [1] https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configuring-networks-disable-dns-over-… [2] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7816 [3] https://www.isc.org/blogs/qname-minimization-and-privacy/ [4] https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues/16 [5] https://netlabs.nl/downloads/presentations/unbound_qnamemin_oarc24.pdf [6] https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/issues/2311 [7] https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/DOH-resolver-policy [8] https://dnsprivacy.org/wiki/

Time and Timing Servers
by Mike Hammett 16 Feb '20

16 Feb '20

There were a lot of NTP threads several weeks ago, but I didn't get an answer to my question amongst all of the other chatter. I'm looking for a device that can receive GPS inside a building without the assistance of an external antenna (Frontier says they no longer allow external antenna), will provide traditional NTP services, and will provide a timing signal that my Metaswitch can work with. I know that MicroSemi via Symmetricom makes these kinds of devices, but I'm hoping to look at multiple manufacturers and compare. Thanks. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP

FCC Takes Steps to Enforce Quality Standards for Rural Broadband
by Sean Donelan 07 Nov '19

07 Nov '19

There is just so much I want to make sarcastic comments about, but I worry about offending future potential employers (all of them). https://www.fcc.gov/document/fcc-takes-steps-enforce-quality-standards-rura… Description: FCC Takes Steps To Enforce Quality Standards For Rural Broadband Networks and Also Provides Additional Flexibility to Reduce Burden on Companies [...] In response to Petitions for Reconsideration and Applications for Review of an earlier bureau- level Performance Measure Order, the FCC today maintained the existing requirement that carriers conduct quarterly speed and latency tests between specified numbers of active subscribers’ homes and the Internet, and made targeted modifications to the testing procedures, including: - Modifying the schedule for commencing testing by basing it on the deployment obligations specific to each Connect America Fund support mechanism; - Implementing a new pre-testing period that will allow carriers to become familiar with testing procedures without facing a loss of support for failure to meet the requirements; - Allowing greater flexibility to carriers in identifying which customer locations should be tested and selecting the endpoints for testing broadband connections.
