Yes. No; in our case our firewall (a PA5060 running PANOS6.1.3 at the

Re: Service Providers behaviour for dual homed enterprises

2015-09-24 Thread Clinton Work
Many transit providers support BGP communities to modify how your
announced routes are treated within their network. A quick search shows
that AT supports BGP community 7018:70 to lower the default local-pref
100 down to 70 (below peer routes).  If you tag your AT announced
routes with BGP community 7018:70, then even AT customers should
prefer to enter via Verizon.

ISP's will generally set a higher LOCAL_PREF toward their customers than
to any other destination out of their network.

It's the money shot.

Depending on the provider, this can't always be guaranteed, i.e., that
the available LOCAL_PREF values a customer can trigger via a BGP
community support anything <= what routes the network considers "external".

What's possible (or available) may also be influenced by whether one's

Hi Jason,

That's normal. Verizon does it too. Both have "community" tags which
you can attach to your route advertisement. Each will have one that
indicates they should give external routes the same "local pref" as
the route you announce to them. Tagging your route announcement with
the proper community will cause them to route based on AS path length
as you expect.

Jason, while others have offered acknowledgement of the behavior you are 
seeing as well as solutions, I think it might be relevant to point out 
that this is simply a matter of BGP best path selection. BGP does not 
use AS path length (hops) as its primary path selector. Search for "bgp 
best path selection" to find out more about how BGP selects the best 
path. As others have noted, local pref is often utilized to control 
routing and should be your preferred way to control path selection in 
addition to AS path length. However, the ultimate way to control routing 
would be to advertise more specific prefixes via the path that you want 
traffic to flow.

Thank you all for answering.  I was disregarding Local Pref because the
route server I was on was showing 100.  That was an error on my part though
as it clearly states in the login banner that it is eBGP peering with the
AT routers hence the local Pref would go back to 100 from its
perspective.  Again, thanks for the quick and thorough responses.

Proper hearing protection and noise cancelling mic, with the added bonus of

They are about $375-$450ish retail, we picked some up on ebay in around $200

The only major suggestion if you are going to use them on a regular basis is to

That's not typical passive cooling.  And it's going to be much more
expensive and complicated to implement than "air based" passive
cooling, or active air cooling, etc.

As an example, many mobile devices are underclocked so that their
components dissipate less heat, and may actually vary the clock based
in part on current temperature.  This allows the device to more easily
dissipate heat without active cooling measures, but you get the lowered
performance of a slower part.

It's totally possible to build quieter gear - we do that kind of work
here, as some of you know - but it is a matter of tradeoffs.  I can
show you a Xeon E3 system that consumes a peak of 100 watts.  SSDs
for storage, fanless oversized PSU to reduce heat, massive CPU 
heatsink, and 120MM fans in a 4U chassis.  Very quiet running, has
a higher tolerance to heat as well.  But most people don't want their
hypervisors to take 4U of space for a mere 32GB of RAM and 12GHz of
CPU.  They'd rather stick 300 watts of E5's into a 1U and let it
scream away.

ARIN Region IPv4 Free Pool Reaches Zero

Date: September 24, 2015 at 12:04:22 PM EDT
To: >

On 24 September 2015, ARIN issued the final IPv4 addresses in its free
pool. ARIN will continue to process and approve requests for IPv4
address blocks.  Those approved requests may be fulfilled via the Wait
List for Unmet IPv4 Requests, or through the IPv4 Transfer Market.

For information on the Waiting List, visit:
https://www.arin.net/resources/request/waiting_list.html

For information on IPv4 Transfers, visit:
https://www.arin.net/resources/transfers/index.html

Exhaustion of the ARIN Free Pool does trigger changes in ARIN's
Specified Transfer policy (NRPM 8.3) and Inter-RIR Transfer policy (NRPM
8.4). In both cases, these changes impact organizations that have been
the source entity in a specified transfer within the last twelve months:

"The source entity (-ies within the ARIN Region (8.4)) will be
ineligible to receive any further IPv4 address allocations or
assignments from ARIN for a period of 12 months after a transfer
approval, or until the exhaustion of ARIN's IPv4 space, whichever occurs
first."

Effective today, because exhaustion of the ARIN IPv4 free pool has
occurred for the first time, there is no longer a restriction on how
often organizations may request transfers to specified recipients.

In the future, any IPv4 address space that ARIN receives from IANA, or
recovers from revocations or returns from organizations, will be used to
satisfy approved requests on the Waiting List for Unmet Requests. If we
are able to fully satisfy all of the requests on the waiting list, any
remaining IPv4 addresses would be placed into the ARIN free pool of IPv4
addresses to satisfy future requests.

ARIN encourages customers with questions about IPv4 availability to
contact hostmas...@arin.net or the Registration Services Help Desk at

I could only assume then that your peers were either not accepting your 
advertisements or there was an error in your configuration. All routers 
will choose the most specific route they have when performing 
destination based routing. This overrides how the route was installed 
(static, connected, dynamic) or any metrics considered within each

Re: Recent trouble with QUIC

2015-09-24 Thread Ian Swett via NANOG
Hi,

I'm an engineer working on QUIC at Google.

Sorry for the delayed response. This was an issue with QUIC traffic (from
Chrome users) to Google for some users behind NATs. The issue started at
small volumes on 2015-09-09 when we started rolling out an optimization to
our frontends for QUIC users behind NATs, and then increased in magnitude
on 2015-09-22. We rolled back the feature by 2015-09-23 12:40 PDT, which
did clear all issues.

Here are the technical details:

As we have posted about QUIC before[1], and was pointed out earlier in this
thread, QUIC runs over UDP. For users behind a NAT, QUIC relies upon NATs
maintaining port bindings when the UDP path is in active use.  To ensure
that the NAT does not time out with outstanding requests, QUIC sends a
keepalive ping after 15 seconds.  To optimize for the case when a NAT times
out, we implemented a feature in our frontend to allow the port to migrate
on open QUIC connections -- the frontend would send a GOAWAY to the client
to indicate the connection should be re-established, but outstanding
requests could be completed.  This triggered a previously unknown bug in
Chrome where it tries to use an open QUIC connection that has already
received a GOAWAY for new requests.  Hence the failures.

As this happens only following a NAT rebinding, these failures were
isolated to networks with a lot of NAT rebindings on active connections.
This bug was particularly visible on connections to GMail and Drive because
they utilize hanging GETs which last multiple minutes.  All new requests
using timed out connections would have immediately failed as well.

After rolling back the feature, we have started working on fixing the
underlying issue and improving how we detect and avoid issues like this in
the future.

IPv4's works better today than ever before. IP space in North America has now 
officially turned into a revenue source for networks. Most private enterprise 
customers understand costs and profits. Business does not understand free stuff 
in a free market. Hence, IPv4 is no longer free in a block range perspective.

To any business with rising employee medical insurance, electricity and office 
rent rates, an IP address cost is just not on the radar. Just not a large 
enough cost to make IPv6 look financially attractive. Only when IPv4 address 
costs begin to exceed that of the hardware and labor conversion costs, will 
IPv6 gain traction in North America.

So for the most part your teenage kids will grow up in an IPv4 world until they 
are probably 30,something. But, your grand kids will see IPv4 as s old. 
That's all contingent upon all the networks we work on start charging $10 or 
more per IP address per month.

High dollar amounts for a single static IPv4 address are nothing new,
and are IMHO a side effect of monopoly/duopoly last mile providers being
able to shake down end users because the end user's financially viable 
options are typically just "pay up or don't get a static."

The question really at hand: what happens when you need to host a new 
pile of servers, need/can-justify a /24, and your hosting provider 
quotes you $2560/month just for the IP space (at $10/IP)?

That'd be an incentive to look seriously at IPv6 I *think*.

Switching hosting providers will probably become a popular game for 
the early depletion era, as providers attempt to rob each other of
customers.  That's probably a losing game in the long run.

RE: ARIN Region IPv4 Free Pool Reaches Zero

2015-09-24 Thread Steve Mikulasik
I read an article from National Geographic from the early 90s about the 
conversion for CFCs to HCFC and I think IPv4 will transition similarly. I wish 
I could find the article on line, but I can't find it at all. It basically 
credited the speed of the transition (it was faster than most thought) due to 
CFC scarcity imposed by legislation. 

CFC used in A/C were known to be terrible for the environment for a number of 
years, but consumers didn't really demand HCFC equipment and you could always 
buy CFCs cheaply to repair your appliances. Once it was mandated that HCFCs 
could only be used on anything new and CFCs could not be produced at the same 
level, a market was created for reclaiming CFCs from old equipment. The price 
of CFCs went up for a number of years due to decline supply until there was 
enough of a uptick in HCFC equipment that eventually the price of CFCs tanked 
due to low demand. The limited CFC market helped pushed people in adopting 
HCFCs since the cost of repairing your old CFC A/C unit was very high for a 
number of years. By the time prices went down no one really cared that much for 
CFCs anyways.

Since we now have a market controlling the allocation of IPv4 addresses we will 
probably see the fastest uptick in IPv6 adoption yet. The price will go up 
until it is more reasonable to just go to IPv6 for everything than to figure 
out how to keep getting blood from the IPv4 stone. There is an upper limit to 
how much we can all pay for an IP address. Now would be a good time to invest 
in IPv4 addresses to sell at the high end of the market ;)


(Hope I did a decent job explaining, trying to remember the article from a few 
years ago is hard.)

Subject: Re: ARIN Region IPv4 Free Pool Reaches Zero

IPv4's works better today than ever before. IP space in North America has now 
officially turned into a revenue source for networks. Most private enterprise 
customers understand costs and profits. Business does not understand free stuff 
in a free market. Hence, IPv4 is no longer free in a block range perspective.

To any business with rising employee medical insurance, electricity and office 
rent rates, an IP address cost is just not on the radar. Just not a large 
enough cost to make IPv6 look financially attractive. Only when IPv4 address 
costs begin to exceed that of the hardware and labor conversion costs, will 
IPv6 gain traction in North America.

So for the most part your teenage kids will grow up in an IPv4 world until they 
are probably 30,something. But, your grand kids will see IPv4 as s old. 
That's all contingent upon all the networks we work on start charging $10 or 
more per IP address per month.

Thank You

Maxmind would have to violate ARIN's rules to collect your geoip
information through a feed of whois data. Those rules forbid
republication of the data.

Try contacting them directly. Then download the files they publish and
check for yourself.

https://support.maxmind.com/geoip-data-correction-request/
http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/legacy/geolite/

When you've done these things and still haven't gotten satisfaction,
perhaps then it's time to return here for a session of Name and Shame.

Actually, the issue now is convincing certain big providers to actually 
make IPv6 service available to their customers in data centres and the 
like across their *whole* networks rather than giving people the 
"there's no demand so we can't justify the cost" run around. (I'm 
looking at you AS701.)


For that matter, it would also help if certain large end user providers 
would make IPv6 available rather than giving a standard "we have no 
information at this time" type response. (I'm looking at you, Shaw.)

I assumed it must be based off of WHOIS.  The IP space I'm working with
is in the midwest (US).  The address associated with it is from our
primary IP block out here in California, which it would have only been
able to gather from WHOIS.  If it had gone off the last hop, presumably
it would have seen that as something a little closer to the real
location rather than *exactly* where our primary environment is. :)

They could also do RDNS lookups and then see what rwhois says about the domain.

They could purchase sales records from online retailers. Hey guys,
give us the IP address, city, state and zip code for each sale; we'll
pay you a nickle each. Then correlate that with BGP announcements that
show the range of impacted addresses.

They could convince folks to install web browser plugins which give
the users rewards in exchange for ceding personal information. Or buy
data from a company which does.

Re: ARIN Region IPv4 Free Pool Reaches Zero

2015-09-24 Thread Bryan Socha via NANOG
Shouldn't 23.128.0.0/10 be put back into the pool?   Ripe finished their
test and this was a loaned block. Also with 16 million addresses in
their reserved pool, did they really need to borrow this in the first
place??

Bryan -

  23.128.0.0/10 isn’t on loan to RIPE; it is the permanently reserved block for 
IPv6
  transition (see ARIN NRPM 4.10 "Dedicated IPv4 block to facilitate IPv6 
Deployment”),
  of which RIPE is doing testing with 4 /24’s (and has asked to continue the 
testing
  of those blocks, so long as we don’t need them back sooner.)

Thanks,

Yea, well, it would be nice if upgrading existing home routers
remained legal, so we could, indeed add ipv6 capability and more.

I've recently SWIP'd some IP space to see if Maxmind would pick up the
new location.  48 hours later it hasn't (just via their free, web-based
query tool).  Perhaps I need to be more patient.

I would assume that they query whois for one of their sources. They
don't have to enter any contract with ARIN to do so but they also
can't promptly collect any sizable portion database that way. That
isn't the same as signing up for bulk whois access
(https://www.arin.net/resources/request/bulkwhois.html).

I imagine they also do traceroutes to identify the last known location
in the route.

Re: GeoIP information

2015-09-24 Thread Ian Clark
Is there anyone here who has successfully changed their GeoIP data for a
subset of their ARIN allocation?
How do service providers get all the GeoIP companies to have correct
information for their address ranges?  Do they just pay them to update it?
At first I thought it had to do with whois data, but my home Verizon IP
whois lists Ashburn, VA, yet the GeoIP data shows my local city.

We're trying to find a way to correct our GeoIP data for a specific IP
range, but aren't sure what the best practices are for doing so.  Any
advice would be awesome!

I wonder if a sudden exodus of customers whose iOS app got axed
because it can't contact an aws-hosted server from an IPv6-only
network will be enough to get their attention
