Slightly OT: Redundant CPE Switching for DS3
by John Neiberger 22 Dec '05

22 Dec '05

I'm curious to find out if there is a device that would allow a single DS3 to terminate on two different routers, and switch from the primary to the backup router if the primary were to fail. I've seen this for T1 circuits but I can't find anything for DS3. Any suggestions? Thanks, John --

For those of you who make use of the completewhois bogon lists (apparently there are some)... It appears that as of this morning they've decided that 204.57.128.0 - 204.255.255.255 belongs in the bogon lists. Grrrr..... Pardon the operational interruption.

Likely this would also require the IETF to publish an RFC that would state in general how the address space should be allocated. Maybe in this new world of ICANN, the RIRs could create a global policy, through the NRO, that ICANN would ratify to instruct the IANA to make the address space available. In any case, this is not an activity that only will require the work of the RIRs. Andrew

Cisco GSS 4480 Remote Management
by James Baldwin 22 Dec '05

22 Dec '05

Is anyone aware an API/CLI or other interface that allows for manipulation of the GSS's dns rules, answers, answer groups, and domain lists? I dug through a few of the reference manuals and could find no reference to manipulation of the devices configuration beyond basic system settings and database backup utilities (both the Administration Guide and the Command Reference came up short) over its CLI. If you can suggest a more appropriate list to interrogate, I'd also be appreciative. --- James Baldwin

MSN admins Mails disappears into ether
by Elijah Savage 22 Dec '05

22 Dec '05

Is there any MSN admins on the list that can help. We have a customer that sends mail to an msn account and sometimes it goes and sometimes it does not and they are getting very frustrated with our service of course blaming us. I have logs that show we sent the mail and it was accepted for delivery but the person on the other end never gets it. This customer can send the same mail 5 minutes apart for testing and we show it being delivered and accepted both times but the guy on the other end will get 1 out of the 2 messages so we do not think it is being marked as spam on your end and dropped. If anyone can please contact me off list or if anyone has had any success with contacting a MSN admin that info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you -- http://www.digitalrage.org/ The Information Technology News Center

Daniel - it should be public IMO only because you don't want some lesser experienced operators wandering into these IRC brothels and catching something or worse, giving them something...so to speak. I can wander into any chat really and say I'm vaul pixie and make you do bad things potentially, like make you buy a CB and contact me on 'secure' Channel 19 with your name server password so I can 'help'. That's 'bad', yes yes, digital certs, pgp, etc. All that. I wouldn't cry if IRC was deprecated, or archie, or gopher, but..that'll never happen so better to use education as the 'jimmy hat'. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Roesen [mailto:dr@cluenet.de] Sent: Wed Dec 21 21:50:27 2005 To: nanog list Subject: Re: #nanog: was Re: http://weblog.disgu.st down On Thu, Dec 22, 2005 at 04:06:02AM +0200, Gadi Evron wrote: > >>I'd like to see a useful #nanog where network operators could chat. > > > >That channel does exist but is not NANOG-related.

You are certainly talking about a different channel than me. The one I was talking about (and that should have been a private reply, not a reply to the list) isn't named #nanog. Anyway, apologies to stir this discussion, it should have been off-list anyway. :-Z Best regards, Daniel -- CLUE-RIPE -- Jabber: dr(a)cluenet.de -- dr@IRCnet -- PGP: 0xA85C8AA0
