Bogon Filters Removal REQ, 124/7, 126/8

2005-12-06 Thread Noel
Dear colleagues, This is a resend of APNIC message issued Feb this year, many of you have not removed the filters creating problems for many networks in Australia and other APNIC covered countries, as the below mentioned 'near future' has been well underway for some couple of months. It would

Could IPtables control traffic with inspecting layer7 information? As someone suggested, bandwidth allocation could be done with TCP protocol control ( ACK dropping or so); How can we do that? NBAR only limit the bandwidth, and to our experience with cisco7609 it cost a lot of cpu time!

There are quite a few modules for iptables that will reach up to Layer 7, including several specifically for file sharing applications... And one really nifty one that makes non-passive ftp work through NAT. -e -Original Message- From: william(at)elan.net [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Receiving route with metric 0

2005-12-06 Thread Glen Kent
Am all the more confused now :) In pre-RFC1058 implementations the sender increments the metric, so a directly-connected route's metric is 1 on the wire. In post-RFC1058 implementations the receiver increments the metric, so a directly-connected route's metric is 0 on the wire.
