Cloud backups versus lightning strikes
by Sean Donelan 20 Aug '15

20 Aug '15

As the saying goes, cloud computing is just someone else's computer. Always backup your cloud backups... in your backup. Google's spokesperson used the percentage statistic to avoid how much data was lost. Other cloud providers have also lost customer data due to various problems. While a well-run cloud service provider is more reliable than keeping data under your mattress (just like a well-run bank is better than keeping cash under your mattress), its not magic. Nature is still more powerful than even Google. http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-33989384 Google says data has been wiped from discs at one of its data centres in Belgium - after it was struck by lightning four times. Some people have permanently lost access to their files as a result.

They apparently experienced massive fiber cuts last night and are still 100% down. Anyone know anything about this?

A multi-tenant firewall for an MSSP
by Ramy Hashish 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

Hello All, We are planning to implement a multi-tenant FW/UTM and start providing security as a service, I would like to hear if anybody had experience on this, and if there are any recommendations for the UTM's vendor. People/customers here are more familiar with the Fortigate, however, we need to build a well-rounded solution that suits wide range of enterprises' business needs. Thanks, Ramy

rDNS delegation process question
by Dave Pooser 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

At $DAYJOB we have a /24 of PA space that we were allocated by Airband, and when the account was set up they delegated authoritative reverse DNS to our DNS hosting provider. This is 69.26.223.0/24, in ARIN address space. Now, almost a decade later Airband has been acquired by somebody or other who was in turn acquired by GTT.net; we're trying to move our rDNS to Route53 and nobody at GTT.net seems to know how they would go about changing that rDNS delegation. My involvement with the process back in the day was limited to "provide Airband with the name servers we would like to be authoritative for the reverse DNS and wait about 12 hours for them to handle the ticket." Now I'm trying to help my GTT contact get pointed in the right direction, and any assistance would be appreciated. -- Dave Pooser Cat-Herder-in-Chief, Pooserville.com

A perl script to find IP and network addresses in a text file (config, ACL, etc) and annotate them with various bits of information
by Jesse McGraw 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

(This is me scratching an itch of my own and hoping that it might be useful to others on this list. Apologies if it isn't) All, I was working my way through a very long ACL, trying to clean out old cruft, and I found myself thinking that surely I could make this somewhat easier. So, I wrote a small script that will go through a text file(or files), find anything that looks like a host IP or subnet (with subnet mask, wildcard mask, or mask length), dig up information about them (DNS name, ping responsiveness, host count etc) and then spit out an HTML version of the input file with color coded info. General info is blue Hosts that are reachable and networks that have a specific route are GREEN (see networks note below) Hosts that are non-responsive and networks that use default route are RED Individual script is: https://github.com/jlmcgraw/networkUtilities/blob/master/annotate_hosts_and… Repository is: https://github.com/jlmcgraw/networkUtilities To get the whole repository: git clone https://github.com/jlmcgraw/networkUtilities.git This repository includes the necessary modules for this script and some other small utilities that network folks might be interested in (If for some reason included modules don't work for you see setup.sh for easy ways to install them under Debian-derived Linux. I've tested the script under Linux and Windows, but not OS X) Please let me know if you use this utility and encounter anything that doesn't work right. I'm also interested in incorporating any changes/improvements so feel free to send a pull request! -Jesse Note: If you've got a BGP speaking router that you can query via SNMP, you should be able to use bgp_asn_path_via_snmp.pl <https://github.com/jlmcgraw/networkUtilities/blob/master/bgp_asn_path_via_s…> to create a table of known routes to use along with this utility
