Re: BGP Routing problem
by Alan Barrett 06 Jun '97

06 Jun '97

Anthony Walker said that the following was seen while the BGP session between AS6180 and AS3741 was down: > MAE-East Looking Glass Results > Query: bgp > Addr: 196.25.203.0 > BGP routing table entry for 196.25.203.0/24, version 5006458 > Paths: (1 available, no best path, advertised over IBGP) > 1673 1239 4005 3741 6180, (received-only) > 192.41.177.141 from 192.41.177.141 (140.223.57.217) > Origin IGP, external AFAIK, "received-only" means that DIGEX heard that route from AS1673 but did not install it, presumably because it failed to pass a filter. The question is, why did that route not get withdrawn properly when the BGP session between AS6189 and AS3741 was terminated? This looks very much like the cisco bug that bit Sprint during the AS7007 incident a month or so ago. Hey, Ravi, I thought you fixed that bug? Perhaps AS4005 is not running the fixed code. Perhaps there's another bug. --apb (Alan Barrett)

Rumor has it that DIGEX was just acquired by Intermedia Communications (a CLEC from Tampa!). Does anyone know anything? Rodney Joffe CTO Genuity Inc.

IP: Attack on California's electric power infrastructure from risks (fwd)

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 05 Jun 1997 18:49:00 -0400 From: David Farber <farber(a)cis.upenn.edu> To: ip-sub-1(a)majordomo.pobox.com Subject: IP: Attack on California's electric power infrastructure from risks for those of you who drive south of San Jose on Route 1-1, note the very large interconnect power station a few 100 ft off of 101 and easily damaged with a rifle or a granade. Maybe that is why they increased security at the US Power Dams several months ago. Do you sleep better at night? Dave Date: Wed, 04 Jun 1997 17:35:47 -0400 From: "Betty G.O'Hearn" <betty(a)infowar.com> Subject: Attack on California's electric power infrastructure This morning's IWAR Situation Report contains information about an attack on the electric power infrastructure in California. Although the attack used conventional weapons, it is one of the first attacks on the power infrastructure possibly linked to a political situation.
