Cloudflare Contacts
by John Von Essen 01 Apr '20

01 Apr '20

Could someone from Cloudflare contact me off-list? I work for a major search engine (not google or bing), and we just launched some assets in Brazil, seeing some weird behavior to Cloudflare CDN assets and thinking maybe we are being caught in some kind of filter/block. Our image search traffic is proxied through a single IP, so its definitely high volume. We’ve never had an issue in other regions, but it could due to the sudden increase. Thanks John Von Essen

Zayo and Crown both no-bid it, and crown has the old lighttower network. Are there any other dependable players for dark in south central NJ? -Ben

NTT/AS2914 enabled RPKI OV 'invalid = reject' EBGP policies
by Job Snijders 31 Mar '20

31 Mar '20

Dear group, Exciting news! Today NTT's Global IP Network (AS 2914) enabled RPKI based BGP Origin Validation on virtually all EBGP sessions, both customer and peering edge. This change positively impacts the Internet routing system. The use of RPKI technology is a critical component in our efforts to improve Internet routing stability and reduce the negative impact of misconfigurations or malicious attacks. RPKI Invalid route announcements are now rejected in NTT EBGP ingress policies. A nice side effect: peerlock AS_PATH filters are incredibly effective when combined with RPKI OV. For NTT, this is the result of a multiyear project, which included outreach, education, collaboration with industry partners, and production of open source software shared among colleagues in the industry. Shout out to Louis & team (Cloudflare) for the open source GoRTR software and the OpenBSD project for rpki-client(8). I hope some take this news as encouragement to consider RPKI OV "invalid == reject"-policies as safe to deploy in their own BGP environments too. :-) If you have questions, feel free to reach out to me directly or the NTT NOC at <noc(a)ntt.net>. Kind regards, Job

RE: Backhoe season?

I suspect any reduction in backhoe activity will depend strongly on where you are looking. The San Francisco Bay area, including Silicon Valley is taking things seriously. >From the City of Menlo Park, Calif, March 20th: Due to the statewide stay-at-home order, effective Friday, March 20, no construction activity is allowed within the city of Menlo Park, except for essential infrastructure projects as determined by the City Manager/Emergency Services Director, until further notice. Active construction sites are instructed to secure their site and cease all further work immediately. Only activities necessary to address immediate health and safety concerns, as determined by the City Manager/Emergency Services Director, are allowed. This action is not taken lightly and is out of extreme concern for the health and safety of construction workers and city employees. Further guidance in light of this decision is expected to be released the week of March 23, 2020. Please visit the city website at menlopark.org/coronavirus for updates. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam.

ISC BIND 9 breakage?
by Drew Weaver 31 Mar '20

31 Mar '20

Did anyone else on CentOS 6 just have some DNS resolvers totally fall over? I noticed that this command: dnssec-lookaside auto; was causing the issue. The issue occurred right at about 1PM EST. I see this note in the ISC key file.. # ISC DLV: See https://www.isc.org/solutions/dlv for details. # # NOTE: The ISC DLV zone is being phased out as of February 2017; # the key will remain in place but the zone will be otherwise empty. # Configuring "dnssec-lookaside auto;" to activate this key is # harmless, but is no longer useful and is not recommended. It's not harmless anymore.

rack rails
by David Funderburk 31 Mar '20

31 Mar '20

1 - We now have some time on our hands to do some things in our storage area which includes identifying a # of rack rails found in a box. Does anyone have any tips or tricks for identifying what equipment rails might match? 2 - Do you know of any universal rail kits for 1U, 2U and 3U servers, routers, switches that work well? The brand names are nice but expensive. Thought I'd explore some cheaper options first. We use a lot of MikroTik, HP, Dell and some CISCO with a few other things here and there.

I have a customer in eastern Europe accessing a SAAS application hosted in one of Azure's north America datacenters. for the past few days every morning between 3am and 6am est performance slows to crawl. This is person is like 8am to 11am locally so they cant get much done. The local ISP is providing 100mbps up/down. So far speed test to Saas providers speed test page is slow 0.02mbps down 6 mbps up Speedtest.net to north American ISPs like Verizon in New York slow Speedtest to servers in Easter europe 100 up 100 down Traceroutes/MTR dont help because a lot of hops seem to drop icmp packets Need a tool or service that can detect packet loss/latency between provider in eastern europe and a north american service provider. Any help is appreciated
