Godaddy DNS Issues

[Clayton Zekelman]

It seems sometime today, Godaddy's name servers stopped responding to 
queries from our resolvers, so our customers can't visit their sites.


Front line Godaddy support won't help us because we aren't customers, 
and we don't have a PIN... whatever that means.


Can anyone from Godaddy contact me offlist to assist?

Re: Scheduled outage -- Nationwide no driver license updates this weekend

[Justin Streiner]

Sounds like either the National Driver Register or NHTSA is single-homed to
Verizon, or the state DMVs each have a WAN circuit of some sort through
Verizon to where the National Driver Register system physically lives.  If
it's the latter, it sounds like a job that could be handled much more
effectively using site-to-site VPN tunnels, but I understand the realities
of being stuck in a long-term contract, policy mandates that dictate a
physical connection, or things along those lines.  Government agencies can
and sometimes do get funding for infrastructure upgrades and resiliency -
at least if they budget for it...

I'm sure the backstory here is both mundane and interesting.

Thank you

Re: Scheduled outage -- Nationwide no driver license updates this weekend

[Brian Knight via NANOG]

It seems to say more about fluctuating funding and IT management.I seem to recall an issue with the FAA’s NOTAM / TFR database a few weeks back, one that grounded all flights one fine morning. Wasn’t network-related, but the articles I read about the application’s architecture and fault-tolerance make it seem… lightweight. :) And I would guess that outage was far more impactful than this one is likely to be.-BrianOn Mar 1, 2023, at 9:45 AM, Jason Leschnik  wrote:Says a lot about the architecture of the application and redundancy.

[NANOG-announce] 2023 NANOG Committee Appointments

[Valerie Wittkop]

NANOG Community,

I am excited to announce that 33 NANOG members accepted appointments to a
committee. So many highly-qualified volunteers from the NANOG membership
were nominated for this year’s committee selection, and we personally thank
each NANOG member who offered their time.

As an organization, NANOG was founded by volunteers who developed a quality
forum for North America’s operator community. Despite the growth in NANOG’s
programs, volunteers greatly outnumber professional staff. The
volunteer-only committees drive many of the ideas for growth and
development in the organization and community as a whole.

Please join me in congratulating the appointed committee members:

Diversity Equity and Inclusion Committee

Evan Breznyik, Kate Gerry, Stephen Hartman, Marcus Holt, T.Marc Jone, Louie
Lee, Marlin Martes, Charles Rumford, Alejandro Silvestre, Anna Valsami,
Clara Wade, Christoph Weisbrod, + Les Williams

Scholarship Committee

Jeff Budney + Tony Tauber

We are truly excited to see what develops for NANOG over the next year
working with these volunteers.

Please also join me in thanking and recognizing the many contributions of
committee alumni who have termed out:

Volunteer participation from these members on NANOG committees developed
new programs, brought new ideas and new methods into practice, and helped
to evolve the NANOG organization. We would not be where we are without
their time and contributions.

We look forward to continuing working together to build the Internet of
tomorrow, and hope to see you at a NANOG conference soon!


Sincerely,

I am not sure I completely agree with that assertion honestly.

Seen plenty of projects that saw dumptrucks of time/money thrown at only to
never be completed or implemented. Have also seen plenty of projects that
didn't get much investment, yet ended up yielding massive benefits in
productivity and money.

There is of course some merit there , but I would disagree that spend
itself is a good barometer.

UN FAO account compromised - need support from Twitter

[Randazzo, Alessio (CSI)]

Dear Colleagues,

I'm Alessio Randazzo, a member of the IT-Security Team of Food and Agriculture 
of the United Nations. Nice to e-meet you!
It has come to our attention that one of our Colleagues has no longer access to 
his Twitter account as it has been compromised. We submitted the form last 
Friday, but we haven't received any feedback yet.

Can someone from Twitter help us to speed up the recovery of the account? 
Please reply to me off-list.

Thank you and kind regards,
Alessio.

The UK has an annual survey by the regulator
https://www.ofcom.org.uk/research-and-data/multi-sector-research/infrastructure-research/connected-nations-2022

There are some UK specific terms due to marketing (such as FTTC = fibre
to the cabinet which uses VDSL2 to the home)

For your graphs -

We have a large now legacy VDSL2 population probably around 80%, little
G.FAST as that was a dead end while trying to avoid fibre.

A fair bit of ADSL2+ in usually rural areas and outliers not covered by
FTTC, estimate 10% though this is being rapidly targeted by FTTH
builders.

Various DOCSIS is just called cable, I can't differentiate the
generations installed. There is one operator with around 20% market
share. It's dead tech now except for refresh while they try and keep
competitors at bay until they can move to fibre themselves. It's
fast enough for now but all marketing is for gigabit fibre though
most do not take 1Gb/s service.

FWA and 4/5G are relatively small though 4G has had some success
as a stop gap in rural.

The VDSL2 and ADSL2+ are most rapidly being replaced with the only
growing tech, fibre, which was around 10%. This is the only tech of
interest, anyone building something else is doomed.

Most of the fibre is GPON, a little XG, and some AE (which I've also
built a little of). The incumbent is driving the GPON, there are many
altnets building but just doing the same as they fight for customers
while they overbuild each other, it's starting to get a bit messy with
resulting M

Request for comments

[Etienne-Victor Depasquale via NANOG]

Good people of NANOG,

Please find here

a snapshot of two datasets concerning access technologies in the metro area.

The bar chart on the right summarizes data I collected last year from *NOGs;
the bar chart on the left summarizes data received last year from Tier 1
and/or regional operators (incumbents).
The y-axis shows cumulative responses for an option; the x-axis shows
(hopefully unambiguous) monikers for the access technologies.

Would anyone care to comment on how well this matches his/her perception of
the current state of deployments?

Cheers,

Etienne
