The Netlantis database cant afford so many updates... Thanks for your understanding. (NOTE for RIPE RIS ppl: The TIX switch is somehow experiencing unknown (yet) L2 troubles...) Regards, Pascal

RIPE NCC Report on last week's Internet events.
by Henk Uijterwaal (RIPE-NCC) 19 Aug '03

19 Aug '03

(Apologies for duplicate mails) RIPE NCC Report on last week's Internet events. =============================================== During last week, two major events occurred that might have affected the general Internet infrastructure: * The electricity blackout in the north-eastern part of the US and eastern Canada on August 14, 2003. * The so-called Ms Blaster worm attack on the Microsoft sites on August 16. The RIPE NCC looked for the effects these events may have had on the general Internet infrastructure by using data collected by the following projects: Test Traffic Measurements (delay and loss measurements), Routing Information Service (BGP routing) and DNSMON (monitoring of root and ccTLD servers). The following observations were made during the blackout: * One measurement point, located in the heart of the affected area, went down when its UPS system failed. * One TTM measurement point located close to the area affected by the blackout showed an increase in delays from some destinations. This could have been caused by traffic being re-routed around the north-eastern US. Similar delays have been seen in the past, so this might have been unrelated to the blackout. At no time was connectivity lost. * BGP activity went up during the blackout. This is consistent with routers going down and traffic being re-routed around the troubled area. * The root and ccTLD servers continued to operate and respond as usual. These servers have back-up power systems that took over. During August 16, no effects were seen from the so-called MS Blaster worm attack on the Microsoft sites. This is consistent with Microsoft's own observations and is probably due to the publicity surrounding the worm and the availability of patches before the event. In conclusion, none of our data indicates that the Internet infrastructure was affected by either of these events. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Henk Uijterwaal Email: henk.uijterwaal(a)ripe.net RIPE Network Coordination Centre WWW: http://www.ripe.net/home/henk P.O.Box 10096 Singel 258 Phone: +31.20.5354414 1001 EB Amsterdam 1016 AB Amsterdam Fax: +31.20.5354445 The Netherlands The Netherlands Mobile: +31.6.55861746 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ That problem that we weren't having yesterday, is it better?

ANNOUNCEMENT: RIS IPv6 route collection at LINX and VIX
by Matthew Williams 13 Aug '03

13 Aug '03

[Apologies for duplicate mails] Dear All, RIPE NCC is pleased to announce IPv6 route collection at LINX and VIX: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- As a part of our ambition to comprehensively track IPv6 BGP routing table activity, the Routing Information Service (RIS) now also accepts, in addition to the route collector (RRC03) at AMS-IX, native IPv6 peerings on RRC01 at LINX and RRC05 at VIX. At this stage, we are not yet inserting the collected data into the RIS database (watch this space for announcements of a full IPv6 RIS service), but the raw data of BGP RIBs and BGP Updates containing IPv6 entries will be available at http://data.ris.ripe.net/. If you are a current user of RIS raw data then please be aware that some of these files will soon contain IPv6 entries in addition to the existing IPv4 entries. Some notes on how the RIS approached this issue can be found at URL: http://www.ris.ripe.net/ipv6changes.html. If you are present at the AMS-IX, LINX or VIX and would like to establish an IPv6 peering with the RIS project then please send an email to mailto:rispeering@ripe.net. ----------------------------------------- More information about the RIS can be found at http://www.ripe.net/ris/.
