Re: [AusNOG] Microsoft Office365 CDN at Vocus appears to be corrupted
Okay, yes, that's odd. As a work-around, it ought to work if you temporarily use the hosts file to hand-specify the desired result of an A look-up on officecdn.microsoft.com. ___ AusNOG mailing list AusNOG@lists.ausnog.net http://lists.ausnog.net/mailman/listinfo/ausnog
Re: [AusNOG] Risks to country and business infrastructure
Let's all bear in mind that we're still operating within the imagination constraint of human agency. As long as we're imagining, I'd like to see more people thinking about how the rules might change in the information security sphere, if someone seems to be approaching the achievement of human-level artificial general intelligence. As for the rest, with respect for the potential usefulness of brainstorming new cases - I've been wondering when we'll see a stop-thread on this topic. As others point out, movie plots tend to be encompassed within the planning sphere of Information Security and its subcategories of availability, integrity, confidentiality, authentication, accountability. When someone questions whether this-or-that was predicted, this seems most likely to indicate either the plausibility of the threat, or which side of a closed door the questioner was on when the discussions were held. - Tim ___ AusNOG mailing list AusNOG@lists.ausnog.net http://lists.ausnog.net/mailman/listinfo/ausnog
Re: [AusNOG] Telstra mobile outage - QLD and VIC
I don't see Noggers talking about this recently, however my Telstra phone calls & data are still not working in VIC.

Re: [AusNOG] Hardware for Linux / 10Gbe iperf3 hosts in the field
Thank you everybody for your responses. Regarding the use case - It's a fleet of distributed compute to be deployed over our metro ethernet network, which includes both fiber and radio assets. Orchestration is by Ansible, and the initial use case is for the boxen to participate in a speed probe network for engineering purposes. We're interested in speed tests which will quantify reserve performance in a way which is responsive to packet loss (i.e. TCP). As a high cost per node would be discouraging in the quantities we're looking at, the aim is for smaller/single-board commodity hardware which may include mobile chipsets but can nevertheless saturate a 10G link with iperf3 test traffic. Other use cases in the pipeline include hosting of customer speed test nodes to operate in conjunction with a customer-service troubleshooting app we're evaluating. - Tim On Fri, Mar 2, 2018 at 11:17 PM, David Hooton <david.hoo...@ordnance.co> wrote: > Hey Tim, > > > > Pretty much any modern server will be able to do line rate 10G even with a > really inefficient configuration on it. > > > > What is your use case?
