Hi, Aside from the 'Help' menu inside the application, anyone here have an idea on how to contact Facebook (via email) regarding getting the information on a FB Page admin / creator? Would appreciate if you could send it off the list. Regards, -- -nathan

In any case, I submit that an address behind a gate is not a "public address". But my point is, my address is in fact public, not behind any gates--displayed once on the post that supports the mail box, again inside the mailbox door for the mail person, and on a sign on the house next to the door. Which public display grants to no one any right of access to the interior of my house (indeed to no part of the property save the path from the street to the front door). Similarly, my IP address could be publicly visible but that does not grant any right of access to the equipment it attaches to. (I might leave my front door wide open--that STILL does not grant any RIGHT of access. It does depend on archaic notions of honest and regard for rights to keep people out.)

What routers do folks use these days?
by Jawaid Desktop 12 Dec '13

12 Dec '13

We're a service provider, and we have a network full of Cat6509's. We are finding that we are outgrowing them from the standpoint of their ability to handle lots of large routing tables. Obviously their switching capability is still superb but one of them with 20 peers is starting to groan a bit and RAM is going to be an issue soon. What do people use these days? Our backbone needs in the next 2-3 years are going to be sub-100Gbps. Jawaid

-------- Original message -------- From: Christopher Morrell <christopher.morrell.nanog(a)gmail.com> We are currently having routing issues between one of our customers and www.army.mil<http://www.army.mil> which is originated from AS1503.

Routing asymetry and RPF check
by Jean Benoit 11 Dec '13

11 Dec '13

Hello, It's probably an old problem which was already debated here. We (130.79/16, AS2259) can't reach 143.104/16 (AS20252). Actually, all packets are dropped on their way back to our network. The probable cause is a conjunction of routing asymetry and uRPF check : - 143.104/16 is behind a US university network. Packets sent *from 143.104/16* to the rest of the Internet are going through National Lambda Rail (NLR), a US. research and education network, - but, as 143.104/16 does not belong to the university but to a hospital (the network has only a couple of hosts related to public research), this prefix is not announced to NLR. So packets from the Internet *to 143.104/16* go through the university commodity Internet link (a mix of different providers). Thus, there is a routing asymetry. - on the other side of the Atlantic, 130.79/16 is behind another research network, RENATER (AS2200). Renater is connected to GEANT, which federates mots of the European research and education networks. GEANT peers with NLR. So the path from 143.104/16 is : Hospital,University(20252),NLR(19401),GEANT(20965),RENATER(2200),Our site(2259) - when a packet arrives from 143.104/16 on a specific RENATER router in Geneva, geneve-rtr-021.noc.renater.fr, it is dropped. - On this router, geneve-rtr-021.noc.renater.fr, RENATER peers with GEANT. - RENATER lookings glass (https://portail.noc.renater.fr/lookingglass/v2/) tells me that the prefix 143.104/16 is not present in this router's routing table (this prefix is not learnt by NLR, and not learnt by GEANT). Moreover, this router seems not to have a full routing table. - On this router, unicast Reverse Path Forwarding check (unsure if it's strict or loose) is enabled on the interface between RENATER and GEANT (PortChannel4.160 to ae14.160 of rt1.gen.ch.geant.net or mx1.gen.ch.geant.net, see https://tools.geant.net/portal/links/lg/) The packets with source IP address 143.104/16 are dropped because the uRPF check fails. So, what do you think should be done ? Thanks for your advice, -- Jean Benoit University of Strasbourg
