teleglobe planned outage - 2pm Pacific ?
by matthew zeier 02 Sep '03

02 Sep '03

My OC12 to Teleglobe in LA has been bouncing since 2pm Pacific and when I initially called in I was told their router had crashed and rebooted. Now I'm being told this was planned maintenance. I'm having a hard time believing that. Anyone else seeing issues with Teleglobe in LA? - mz -- matthew zeier - "Curiosity is a willing, a proud, an eager confession of ignorance." - Leonard Rubenstein

Hey, QWEST clean up your network
by John Brown 02 Sep '03

02 Sep '03

Seems like QWEST doesn't have any edge ACL's in place to deal with this lovely worm issue. Count Source Prexix, rounded up to a /16 144 208.46.0.0 199 65.114.0.0 347 208.45.0.0 462 65.118.0.0 486 65.119.0.0 702 208.44.0.0 ---- 2340 TOTAL Packets out of 2500 for 2 seconds This is ICMP and TCP MS bad traffic for a 2500 packet capture on a DS1 that is directly connected to Qwest. Ergo, Qwest is the transit provider. Capture period was about 2 seconds. ICK According to Qwest Tech/Noc people they can't leave filters up for more than 1 day. Given that this worm has lasted more than 1 day, I'd think its reasonable to leave filters up for say more than one day ???? The other thing I learned from QWEST IP-NOC was that it seems managment decided *NOT TO* filter packets related to this worm issue at the edge...... john brown AS 10480 and others

Actually, it looks like this is what they are doing.

bgp as-path info
by Austad, Jay 02 Sep '03

02 Sep '03

I just brought up a BGP session with one of my providers, they are stripping our AS as it leaves their network, so it looks like the route is originating from their network. I have another provider that I will be bringing up BGP with later this week. Once I bring up the other provider, I will be advertising several networks out both of them. Is this as-path stripping going to cause issues? Does it matter either way? -jay

He shouldn't be stripping out your ASN (mostly, if that ASN is the originator one) -----Mensaje original----- De: Austad, Jay [mailto:JAustad@temgweb.com] Enviado el: Martes, 02 de Septiembre de 2003 03:01 p.m. Para: nanog(a)merit.edu Asunto: bgp as-path info I just brought up a BGP session with one of my providers, they are stripping our AS as it leaves their network, so it looks like the route is originating from their network.

(08-28) 20:31 PDT WASHINGTON (AP) -- The FBI has identified a teenager as the author of a damaging virus-like infection unleashed on the Internet and plans to arrest him early Friday, a U.S. official confirmed Thursday. The 18-year-old, whose name and hometown was not immediately available, was accused of writing one version of the damaging "Blaster" infection, which spread quickly across the Internet weeks ago, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. <http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2003/08/28/nationa…>

dry pair

Does anyone know to go about getting Qwest or a CLEC to patch through a dry pair between two buildings connected to the same CO? When I called to order one, no one knew what I was talking about. -jay

Hi, NANOGers. While sipping your morning coffee don't forget to check for lame DNS delegations. There are 43585 entries in the lamer report for the week ending 31 AUG 2003. These entries are often indicators of greater problems with name server configurations. <http://www.cymru.com/DNS/lame.html> Our thanks to those of you who have donated additional data for the cause. It is greatly appreciated. :) Thanks! Rob, for Team Cymru. -- Rob Thomas http://www.cymru.com ASSERT(coffee != empty);
