  hi all,
 
 We have a client that has Vonage and is having problems. When his office

 Antenna on the roof comes into the house to a router. Then that router
 is connected to another repeater in the carriage house that is connected
 to the Vonage b

make sure it is simply a bridged connection.


 
 I am thinking this is too many hops for Vonage? But hoping someone else
 has a better understanding of this.
 
 Thanks

First, I would recommend being the VoIP provider yourself and dumping
Vonage. Short of that, I would recommend that you use something like
VoIP-Jet or Broadvoice, where you can BYOD, and get rid of the sipura
devices that are hardwired to Vonage.

Okay, It prolly isn't so much a factor of how many hops, as it is the
co-mingling of traffic going out through the bottleneck point.

I recommend that your client place all SIP, IAX2, and related traffic at
the top of the firewall ruleset - If you don't, then anytime someone
(especially if it is upstream at the bottleneck) visits something like
youtube, your clients going to begin having problems.

You might also be NAT'ing NAT'd traffic - bad w/SIP.

You may be required to have the NAT'd traffic heading to/from the sipura
or other IP/VoIP device NAT'd from a public IP and then not NAT'd again,
because there are issues with SIP behind firewalls when you're not doing
1:1 NAT (A way around this is to put a bridge on the forward facing
firewall exposed to the public IP network - like the FreeSwitch contrib
for pfSense, arguably the best firewall out there, and free).

Contact me offlist for additional particulars.

Hope that helps :)

Kindest regards,

 If I'm issuing the command as I stated below, it shouldn't matter that 
 the public authoritative server is elsewhere, would it? 


Yes it absolutely does.

What you might do, depending on what you're trying to do, is create a
new NS RR for it in the master db file, and then slave the master.

You can also make your machine a manual master by doing an AXFR of the
zonefile from the AUTH server, then changing the SOA and NS Records in
that zonefile to indicate that your new server is actually the (or at
least one of) AUTH name server for that zone.

But really, most of the reasons you would do the second item (which it
sounds like you're trying to do), probably aren't part of why you're
doing this.

If you want the server to answer AUTH, then merely slave the master, coz
what you're doing is bordering on what is known as creating a 'hidden
master'. Which is what we do with servers for rootzones or TLD zones
where the real master isn't even accessible from the outside, and only
allows for zone AXFRs from the machines that are 'slaving' the hidden
master, and even though they're slaving it, it is their IPs that are in
the NS records as AUTH for the zone(s), making them AUTH, and masters,
even though they're slaving the zone from a hidden master.

We do this too in registries.

 I'm trying to
 build this new system without messing with the production system.

Just edit the db file for the zone in question on the master, adding
your new box as AUTH for the zone w/an  NS RR, then on the new box,
merely slave the master.

Don't forget to up your serial before HUP'ing the master when you load
the new zonefile.

if you are trying to set up a new forward facing master, and slave the
zone from a hidden master, then the SOA should be the machine that is
slaving the hidden master, and all other AUTH servers should simply
slave that machine's zonefile, with their glue included  in that file.

I got all my /24 and /16 NET-BLKs from nic.ddn.mil under direct

I'm not quite understanding.

That's not the most efficient - you could have a lot of noise on your
backbone, but if that's not a major concern yet, you can actually do
this simply by going w/network 10 and masking it 255.0.0.0

You'll prolly never run out of space that way either, although there's
only so many nanoseconds in a second and so much collision detection and
retransmitting an ethernet bus can handle.

 Obviously we are wanting to change this for many reasons. Subnetting
 it out on the private side isn't a problem,

That's what I'm not getting. What does 'out' mean? Does this mean it's
out of the question? Does it mean it is out, as in, having already been
deployed? Or does it mean it won't be a problem for you to deploy it?


 but the public side is.

I really don't understand this.

how many public IPs do you need? are you intending on doing 1:1 NAT for
all of the CPEs?

Perhaps one of the best things he can do is pick up a separate provider

But from his email, I really couldn't tell if he was bringing pubic IPs

 We are leaning towards having routeros based routers at every tower

 IP's to allow enough room for much growth. My main question is, what
 is the best course of action once you run out of IP's at an AP or
 tower? What is the most efficient way of bringing more IP's in without
 renumbering everything?

Yup. I pointed that out on the other list too.

Could be as simple as not upping your serial too ;)

I like this format - works well with scripts

mmdd## - that should give you more than enough updates to your
zonefiles each day for an AUTH server.

And look for those missing periods, braces, semicolons, etc., like David
pointed out below. hosts for A RRs end w/periods too, and for the rp
don't forget that it's all dots - no @ sign.

Try loading a dummy zone with just a couple of hosts w/simple A RRs and
build from there ;) Use that SOA for the top of your template.

Always up your serial whenever you HUP.

Just parse through it - I'm sure you'll find it. Also, if that's not it,
make sure your running RFC compliant FQDNs. IOW, no _, which,
depending upon how you compiled BIND you may need to specifically allow
- - otherwise BIND will reject those. Microsoft likes to promote the use
of underscores in machine names - forcing the admin to give those boxes
different hostnames of provide support for those non RFC compliant
hostnames - many DNS servers out there on the Internet won't anyway -
none of mine will.

 If there were errors in loading the zone, then it's not going to
 answer queries for the zone. First, you'll need to read the error logs
 and tea leaves, to see why your zone file isn't loading; once that's
 taken care of, you can then worry about testing.

Nagios integrated w/RT and Asterisk for automating trouble

 Hi all,
 
 I wanted to see if anyone has any ideas on Availability Monitoring of core
 devices and APs. Is anyone out there performing availability reports using
 Nagios or anything similar? For example, if something is down for 1 hour,
 depending on it's placement in the network, it would bring the availability
 of that section of the network down to around 99.990% for the year (99.990%
 = 52.6 minutes per year). The issue is that Nagios dilutes the results of
 overall network availability by including all the 100% figures that were not
 included in the outage.
 
 Is anyone organizing their reports in a different fashion that more
 accurately portray availability of a network? I understand this is quite a
 loaded question not knowing the topology or any of the configurations of our
 Nagios implementation.
 
 
 Thanks in advance!

days until there's a patch, since most of them don't focus on really old
exploits or keep those kits on hand).

Finally, I would like to point out that I wholeheartedly agree with
Bernstein on one very important point that you can use to tune your DNS
servers (and by proxy, everyone elses), and that is to never ever ever
ever ever use CNAME RRs in your zonefiles.

There's just no justification for it whatsoever, and it causes
completely unnecessary recursion where there doesn't need to be any -
use A RRs instead. There's no competent or compelling reason why you
shouldn't use A RRs instead of CNAME RRs (especially with MX RRs!!!).

If you look at the default zonefile templates that come with those
CentOS cPanel accounts, you'll see that the MX records have CNAMES for
them. Why? Because Cricket Liu had them in his book?

Get rid of CNAMES: http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/notes.html#aliases and
http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/8815/fid/699

Well Mike, I know I don't chide in her much but I certainly hope that
helps. Sounds like you've got lots of time to play around before you
have to entrench yourself in one of the camps anyway, so keep us posted
and I'm definitely interested in hearing how you're progressing on this.

Finklenet eh?

Okay then, if it's kewl with you and you can sell it I guess it's kewl
w/me LOL!

At least your name isn't Richard Face ;)

I got a couple of suggestions for you so pls see comments below...

On 5/27/2010 10:08 AM, finkle dinkle wrote:

 Josh, the gbit ptp will be done through fiber to the building, then
 whoever in the building wants service.. will pay set up to get set up
 with ethernet or fiber to my office.
 
 I know I could get enough business inside the building to cover half
 the cost of everything because I'm pretty sure there is a company here
 with quite a few T1's, overpaying and not getting what they deserve.
 I've always been a proponent of maxing stuff out so I will be a great
 benefit to the tenants.

I did something like this in the past when I had a building in San Clemente.

I went to a prominent household name of a tennant in my building that
manufactured sunglasses - before they got super huge and moved further
north into their own facilities in a giant building alongside the 405
freeway and...

Told them I would like to bring them Internet service - at which point
they told me (Politely, because I was in the same building as them) that
they already had that taken care of.

I explained that I would still like to do so regardless - for free. That
I would help set up 'part' of their compay to use my service to them,
say, non mission-critical machinery and some of their clerical personnel.

I went on to offer that we could just leave it for a couple of months
and then they could give me a call or I'd check back.

My extreme candidness and it costs you nothing, no strings approach
was compelling enough for them to give it a shot - against the
recommendation of their IT dudette.

so I hooked 'em up, by simply freelining across the roof since we didn't
want to bother with a permanent connection, and made sure the CEO knew
that they could use as little or as much as they wanted, no strings.

About two and a half months went by and I said nothing, while their
stats on the router continued to climb, until one day when I was walking
out to my car going to lunch their IT dudette approached me.

She said that their CEO wanted to have a chat with me, and so whenever
it was convenient for me to just stop by.

SOLD! Plus, I got to pick out about ten pairs of sunglasses and a couple
of T-shirts for free too ;)

We did a proper installation, and based on word of mouth in the building
I sold the entire rest of the building, about 10 different
suites/companies total.

Finkle, it appears that you're not going to have a problem bringing in
the service and eating it for a couple of months while you get
customers, and prolly the best place to start to recoup your cost is
right there in your own building.

A superior service stands for itself, and knowing the Good Internet
Service isn't going to remain free forever, they're prolly going to
switch over in the short term. You just have to sell it, which is easy
if you give it away free for a month or two.

 
 So if I'm able to set something up externally, I may be able to
 actually break even and profit some,  I actually know I could profit
 but I want this to be more of a service to the people who are unable
 to get anything decent out here.

A perfect starting point - have other's pay for the connection you want
for yourself and go from there ;)

Just an idea.

Hope that helps :)

 That is correct but as I understand it you have to manually draw your
 coverage area in their mapping tool for each application you would be
 protesting.



 Thank You,

 I suppose you go look at the list of Public Notices for a state and
 check
 each ones and click on the action button and then click on view
 communities.
 See if any are in your county/service area and the list button out the
 right
 gives pico more information. Then if something overlaps that you have
 service in, click at the bottom File a Response.

Re: [WISPA] OT Hotmail email black hole

2009-07-10 Thread Bradley D. Thornton
, attacked, DDOS'd or SPAMmed by those 
provider's subscribers.

Rarely - and I mean rarely, do I EVER unblock something once it is 
blocked, and I carry that list of IP blocks w/me from domain to domain 
and site to site. When I launch a new site or server, anyone who has 
ever messed with my boxes is already in my firewall and /etc/hosts.deny 
as well as portsentry.

It ain't kewl when you get rooted, and with all the insecure Php sites 
out there needing constant patching to alleviate (discovered) 
vulnerabilities, I just start from scratch with a suitcase full of 
blocked domains and IP CIDRs.

 Hi All,

 Hotmail has put us on some kind of black list.  Messages from my servers to
 anyone with a hotmail (or affiliate) address is being sent into oblivion.

 Contacting Hotmail has been nearly useless.  They've simply told me to go
 join a special program that they have and that'll get my system ok'd again.

 Sorry, but I'm NOT giving them customer information or money in order to
 fix
 this.

Re: [WISPA] Fw: [TowerTalk] Field Day tower fatality

2009-07-08 Thread Bradley D. Thornton
That's really unfortunate, but part of the issue. Field Day and other 
Ham Fest activities are kinda like an annual racing regatta. I've always 
been a cruiser, but racers get out the slide rules and factor the 
smallest guage for their shrouds, stays, and other standing rigging just 
to cut back on a few pounds of weight.

These events aren't nearly as extreme as sailboats rigged for racing, 
obviously, but it is a 'pack it in - pack it out' sort of event, which 
dictates less hardware to lug around.

 My thoughts too.  There had to be a cause; there's more to the story. 
 But hamfests are usually run by guys that generally know what they're 
 doing so that does lead one to ponder.

Re: [WISPA] OT: Cordless VOIP Phone

2009-07-07 Thread Bradley D. Thornton
Yeah I'd recommend a Sipura/ATA w/a nice cordless phone too, although 
the prices have come down considerably on the wireless VoIP phones 
themselves. For wired applications, I had great success with the 
Grandstream BudgeTone 1xx and 2xx series, and the same basic units are 
still available in wireless variants and with different brandings. They 
worked without a hitch w/Asterisk.

Haven't been too active in that for a while, but I think it was 
VoIPstore that had good prices and support.

I keep getting these emails from PerfecTone (They look like 
Grandstreams) too, although I don't know who really distributes them in 
numbers less than a sea container full of them (from China).

I can shoot you over some of the SPAMs I've received from them if you 
want to request some of those product sheets from me offlist.

Re: [WISPA] Australian regulatory concerns...

2009-07-06 Thread Bradley D. Thornton
Hi Graham,

And thanks so much! That's exactly what I was looking for!

I'm sure Ill have more questions later on as things progress, so I'll 
make sure to hang on to your email addy and look forward to speaking 
with soon on this :)

Oh, you're right, the link is a little clunky wrt finding one's way 
around, but such is the nature of bureaucracies ;)

 G'day Bradley,
 I can help here.
 Australian regs are similar to the USA as follows,
 2.4Ghz 11 channels 36dB EIRP max
 5.8Ghz 4 channels 36dB EIRP max, higher power for specific locations 
 away from the high density populations.
 5.470Ghz to 5.650Ghz many channels, 30dB EIRP max with DFS and TPC 
 enabled, some exemptions for lower power
 900Mhz is just 916 to 928Mhz allowed with 30dB max

 We also have 60Ghz exempt within a certain channel size/range plus 
 70/80Ghz site licensed at little money.

 www.acma.gov.au site has more detail, just tricky to find.

 Offlist if you need more detail from me.

 regards
 Graham
