Cogent & FDCServers: Knowingly aiding and abetting fraud and theft?
by Vivek Nigam 12 Oct '19

Hi Ronald, APNIC has contacted the custodians of 139.44.0.0/16 and 168.198.0.0/16 and brought this matter to their attention. Regards, Vivek Member Services Manager, APNIC From: Ronald F. Guilmette <rfg(a)tristatelogic.com> Date: Fri, Sep 6, 2019 at 6:30 PM Subject: Cogent & FDCServers: Knowingly aiding and abetting fraud and theft? To: <nanog(a)nanog.org> Few of you here probably know about this, but nearly a week ago now an article appeared in South Africa's largest and most popular online tech publication, MyBroadband.co.za. It detailed many, but certainly not all of the results of my multi-month investigation of a massive and ongoing fraud involving the theft of large numbers of large (generally /16 or larger) abandoned legacy blocks, taken from the AFRINIC region and beyond: https://mybroadband.co.za/news/internet/318205-the-big-south-african-ip-add… For various editorial reasons, the article that was published actually downplayed the magnitude of the of the thefts quite dramatically. The totality of the IPv4 space that has been stolen or squatted, primarily but not exclusively, from South African companies and South African national goverment agencies and departments is actually at least 5x bigger than what was reported in the MyBroadband.co.za article. The overwhelming majority of this stolen and squatted IPv4 space has been helpfully routed by Cogent (AS174), to their customer, FDCServers of Chicago, and then on to the prefered destinations of a certain Mr. Elad Cohen of Israel, and his company Netstyle Atarim, Ltd. (I have saved traceroutes up the wazoo that prove the involvement of FDCServers, in particular, in all of this.) Mr. Cohen has been exceptionally prolific in his IPv4 theft and squatting activities, basically grabbing everything that wasn't nailed down, both within the AFRINIC region and also within the APNIC region. In order to try to legitimize all of these thefts and squats, Mr. Cohen created quite a sizable number of fradulent route: objects within the Merit/RADB data base which, as most here should already know, has essentially zero authentication of any kind before it allows J. Random Luser to add pretty much any any route: object he wants to the RADB. Here's a full listing of all of Mr. Cohen's RADB route: objects as they existed as recently as August 17th: https://pastebin.com/raw/ZNgNuvtt And here is the short summary version showing just all of the prefixes/CIDRs that Mr. Cohen was effectively claiming rights and/or title to as of that same date: https://pastebin.com/raw/4LTaCg5R Plese do note the numerous blocks of size /16 or greater. The bottom line is that this one tiny little Israeli company was effectively claiming rights to a total of no fewer than 1,015,808 IPv4 addresses as of August 17th, 2019. (Not too shabby for one lone guy who teaches programming classes as a side job!) Vitrually all of the space is "legacy" IPv4 space, and generally consists of blocks having sizes of /16 or larger. Some of Mr. Cohen claims in his RADB entries are as humorous as they are pathetically fradulent. For example, Mr. Cohen has effectively claimed rights to 139.44.0.0/16 which unambiguously belongs to the Port Authority of the City of Melbourne, Australia. But hell! That's merely city property! Mr. Cohen's limitless appetite for other people's IPv4 space is more vividly on display in his claims to ownerhip over the 168.198.0.0/16 block, which actually belongs to the Department of Finance of the Australian national government. And I haven't even mentioned yet another of Mr. Cohen volumous IPv4 acqusitions, the 165.25.0.0/16 block, which he did not see fit to create an RADB entry for, but which he's been squatting on for for quite some time now, quite clearly with the aid and assistance of both Cogent and FDCServers. That one belongs to th City of Cape Town, South Africa. That city's engineers have been struggling to regain control of their block back from Cogent, from FDCServers, and from Mr. Cohen for some time now. I know because I've personally spoken to them about it. Cogent, in its infinite wisdom, is continuing to fight the city for control over property that clearly and righfully belongs to the City of Cape Town, even as we speak: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ytRj1CtuVhDa0eGu4BT-oEz593y5EwJa/view When asked for LOAs attesting to his legitimate authority to route at least a few of these blocks, Mr. Cohen has produced blatantly forged documents, many of which appeared in the MyBroadband.co.za story. And when I say "blatant" that's a gross understatement. Any half-way decent forger would consider these documents an embarrasment. The documents all bear identical signatures, and identical and vaguely official looking stamps, and purport to actually be sales reciepts attesting to the alleged purchases, by Mr. Cohen's offshore Seychelles Islands shell company, Afri Holdings, Ltd., of various /16 blocks from a mysterious company called Afrivestment, Ltd., which may actually exist in some faraway galaxy, or in Mr. Cohen's active imagination, but which both Google and OpenCorporates.com seem to agree exists exactly noplace on this planet. Here are the manufactured LOAs supplied by Mr. Cohen: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hVjmR6u0ANltuXtZ-Kng8io-EGFyevTR/view https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x_44_H5hkcFLhEwpkwfFoR5PJUyXHzxJ/view https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yQyqn4q_f3bt-wDVoN1FzbXf1k58DXtK/view Recently, Cohen started to move some, but not all, of his stolen and squatted IPv4 blocks off of Cogent/FDCServers and onto a friendly little bullet-proof hosting company in the Netherlands named IP Volume, Inc. (AS202425) and/or to its several sister networks, e.g. AS204655 - Novogara Ltd., all of which, coincidently, just happen to be owned by the exact same pair of Dutch gentlemen who previously owned the notorious Ecatel, follwed by the notorious Quasi Networks. (IP Volume, Inc. appears to have intherited all or nearly all of its legitimately assigned IP space from its predecessor entities, Ecatel and Quasi Networks.) Despite these relocations, many of Mr. Cohen's stolen and squatted blocks are still helpfully being routed to Mr. Cohen's preferred desitnations by his good friends at Cogent and FDCServers, even as we speak. The current set of such routes that Cogent is maintaining, at the moment, apparently on behalf of their customer, Mr. Cohen, consists of the prefixes listed here: https://pastebin.com/raw/EA3xJVLF When I noticed two days ago that all of these routes were still up I was deeply confused. Did both Cogent and FDCServrs not get the memo?? Do they not know yet that Cohen is stealing stuff, left, right, and sideways? Did nobody even tell them about the MyBroadband.co.za article which was published this past Sunday? I decided that it was incumbant upon me to find out. Thus, more that 48 hours ago now I sent the following polite but firm inquiry to Cogent, and a separate nearly identical one directly to the CEO of FDCServers, Mr. Petr Kral (petr(at)fdcservers.net) https://pastebin.com/raw/ztipqE96 A full forty eight hours later, I have received no reply whatsoever from either Cogent or FDCServers, not even a "Go pound sand" type of response. More importantly, most of the stolen IPv4 space that I called out, very specifically, to both Cogent and FDCservers two+ days ago now is still being routed by Cogent/FDCservers to their fun-loving and, I'm sure, promptly paying customer, Mr. Cohen. If neither Cogent nor FDCServers still do not know now that Mr. Cohen is a crook, and that he has glommed onto quite a lot of stolen and squatted IPv4 space... which they have been helpfully routing for him, no doubt in exchange for some handsome payments... then I am foreced to say that it appears to be a reasonable conclusion that it must be because neither Cogent nor FDCServers really wants to know what sort of a character Cohen is, or what he has been up to, specifically with their ongoing and material assistance. But you all be the judges. What does it look like to you? Regards, rfg

California public safety power shutdowns
by Sean Donelan 11 Oct '19

11 Oct '19

Pacific Gas & Electric and Southern California Edison have started Public Safety Power Shut-offs (PSPS) in California wildfire high-risk areas. Shut-offs are taking place in three phases. PG&E began shutoffs at midnight in Northern California and the North Bay counties, while the rest of the Bay Area is scheduled to begin losing power in waves at noon. A possible third phase will occur later in the day in the southernmost parts of the PG&E service area in the San Joaquin Valley and Central Coast. Southern California Edison said it's considering cutting power to more than 100,000 customers in eight counties. The utilities haven't said how many people the outages will affect in all.

Graphical databases ?
by Craig 11 Oct '19

11 Oct '19

Has anyone used the graphical data base software: https://neo4j.com/ I looked at this software several years ago, but it will still relatively new. We are exploring using this to create dependencies of our network infrastructure hardware, customer information, etc. etc. here is an example: https://neo4j.com/graphgist/network-dependency-graph For those that have used it: Has anyone been able to successfully use this for their networks? pros/cons/good/bad Is maintaining the data a chore? Has it helped operationally? if anyone has any input would appreciate hearing from you; thanks; CPV

IPv6 Thought Experiment
by Antonios Chariton 10 Oct '19

10 Oct '19

Dear list, First of all, let me apologize if this post is not allowed by the list. To my best interpretation of the guidelines [1] it is allowed, but may be in a gray area due to rule #7. I would like to propose the following thought experiment about IPv6, and I would like your opinion on what you believe would happen in such a case. Feel free to reply on or off list. What if, globally, and starting at January 1st, 2020, someone (imagine a government or similar, but with global reach) imposed an IPv4 tax. For every IPv4 address on the Global Internet Routing Table, you had to pay a tax. Let’s assume that this can be imposed, must be paid, and cannot be avoided using some loophole. Let’s say that this tax would be $2, and it would double, every 3 or 6 months. What do you think would happen? Would it be the only way to reach 100% IPv6 deployment, or even that wouldn’t be sufficient? And for bonus points, consider the following: what if all certification bodies of equipment, for certifications like FCC’s or CE in Europe, for applications after Jan 1st 2023 would include a “MUST NOT support IPv4”.. What I am trying to understand is whether deploying IPv6 is a pure financial problem. If it is, in this scenario, it would very very soon become much more pricey to not deploy it. I know there are a lot of gaps in this, for example who imposes this, what is the "Global Internet Routing Table", etc. but let’s try to see around them, to the core idea behind them. Thanks, Antonis ------- Links ------- 1: https://nanog.org/resources/usage-guidelines/ <https://nanog.org/resources/usage-guidelines/>

Chicago Equinix IX LAN oddity
by JASON BOTHE 09 Oct '19

09 Oct '19

Hi all I realize this might not be the right list but I have a request to peer on the Chicago Equinix IX to a 206.223.119 IP but we and many others are on the 208.115.137 network. While I await a response from the peering partner, I’d curious to know if this is an error, perhaps there was a renumber at one time or I’m flat out just missing something. Cheers! J~

Telemetry System Ideas
by Chris Misa 08 Oct '19

08 Oct '19

I am a researcher working on developing a new on-the-fly telemetry system that potentially takes a flow chart as input to describe a particular detection task (rather than just features or information elements as in IPFIX). For an example of what I mean by "flow chart" see the figure here: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/mediastore_new/IEEE/content/media/8048782/80488…. Might anyone have pointers to a source of more such flow charts? The other issue I'm worried about is that it might take a couple rounds before an event is detected (since the system has to step through the flow chart and possibly look at different traffic features in the process). What is a typical duration of the types of events people might want to catch with a telemetry system like this? Do these kind of events generate the same type of traffic throughout their durations, or do traffic features change as the event progresses? Thanks! Chris
