Re: [swinog] []: Re: trouble to reach a DNS-server from a single network in switzerland
hi, we make direct resolution via root servers but we found out that only this host is affected - so we tried directly to connect. but actual state: we found out, that not only Nine @ ColoZH is affected, also Init7 from ColoZH and also Init7 in Los Angeles. I received a private message with this information. Reachability: We can also reach this host / ping. But only DNS resloving is NOT possible via ns1.allytech.com and only from ColoZH ;-/ first I thought on the stopped peerings / prefixes with SwissIX, but we can access, IP traffic is routed but only DNS not ?!! So I can not imagine that it is a local problem at ColoZH and its providers there. hmm, keep u posted If someone knows more, info is welcome regards stephan Guten Tag Rainer Duffner, am Donnerstag, 13.

Re: [swinog] IP Management Tool
that is not a limit ip is ip ..private or public or mcast..whatever this are just numbers. you can set up the ripe whois database server as you like. So there are no limits. You have a mail interface webinterface and every tool to query on port 43, and a solutions to sync your stuff with the ripe whois database server, it is called sync updates. this are pro tools if you know what i mean, and of course opensource. here are the docs: http://www.ripe.net/db/docs.html have fun and luck to find your solution :) wish you a nice day michael On Thu, 2008-11-13 at 11:54 +0100, Viktor Steinmann wrote: I cannot speak for all, but as for us, we want to manage ALL IPs in one tool - even the RFC1918 IPs for internal use.

Re: [swinog] IP Management Tool
Of course they did not understand it that way as you can imagine ... The good point is that they now consider that with the same features in a commercial and open source solution, then they may choose the open alternative. That was'nt true when I arrived !! My idea was that the company doesn't have a solution efficient, and the cost is just insane. So my goal was to study any alternative (even with internal dev). But that approach does not fit into the plans of the company... The evolution is slow but is not null ...
