Re: NANOG 44 (Los Angeles): ISP Security BOF

2008-10-03 Thread Christopher Morrow
I would love (though I'll miss it in person) to see a discussion,
structured, of why the Intercage/Atrivo situation got to where it was.
I believe that in many (this one in particular) cases the upstream
networks do not:
1) get
2) have

relevant information in a useful format about abuse/use of their
downstream networks. When I was at AS701 there were consistently folks
who'd say this or that customer is obviously bad, why hadn't we
disconnected them? When looking through abuse tickets for issues we
could bring to management as ammo for disconnection often a majority
of complaints related to the customer in question were not complete,
didn't have enough information, didn't have ANY information in them.

How can we, as a community get better at providing complete and useful
information (ip, timestamp+timezone, act-that-caused-ire)
How can we, as a community, get better at tying together the bits and
pieces that are one issue? (atrivo/intercage/ukrtelecom/hostfresh)

As an interesting aside, there were many occasions of the last 4 years
where some horrible virus/trojan/malware thing got rolling on the
internets, tracking it back was fairly simple (for the C&C or
distribution site) to AS27595... often folks reporting the issue would
say things like:

"Oh, that's ukrtelecom, they are in the Ukraine, too bad we can't get
hands on the server/router/code/subpoena them..."
"Oh, that's something living in hostfresh, in ASPAC, gosh it'd be nice
if the FBI/HTC-group could get there and give the provider some
trouble..."

oddly in many/all of these cases the IP space might have tracked back
to somewhere not ARIN related, but an actual traceroute ended inside
AS27595. So, tying together these incidents with more complete
information would have potentially given the upstreams, or even 27595
if they are to be believed as being in the right and just framed by
their bad customers (not my belief, but...), more actionable
intelligence about their customer(s) and the ability to make an
informed decision (at a management/legal level).

-Chris
(thanks)

This is a set of topics I'd love to see handled in the SP Security BOF.

Upcoming NANOG44 - Hockey in Los Angeles

2008-10-03 Thread Celeste Anderson
If you are planning on attending the upcoming NANOG44 conference in Los Angeles 
and are interested in attending a hockey game.

The Los Angeles Kings opening night is against the San Jose Sharks at Staples 
center Sunday Night.,October 12 at 6PM  If there is enough interest Ralph 
Whitmore will arrange for tickets for all that want to go. He will need a count 
and money by Wednesday at the latest.  Tickets will be priced based on the 
interest. He will have some ballpark numbers tomorrow after the Kings call him 
back.  

If the numbers are enough for a suite (15?), he will get a suite with a NO-Host 
bar in it. If not he will get good seats for all, though he cannot tell where 
they will be yet.  If you are interested please e-mail Ralph at [EMAIL 
PROTECTED] ASAP so he can get a ballpark number.

I'll be sending another email shortly for other activities in the Los Angeles 
area for those who have some extra time for sightseeing before or after the 
NANOG/ARIN meetings.

Hope to see you all in Los Angeles.

Celeste.

firewall's NAT pool (no longer blindly permitted).  GoDaddy's response? 
 The entire /24 used by our corporate firewall was blacklisted 
intermittently for about 6 months.


Our recommendation to our clients and our SP customers is to not use 
GoDaddy's mail services.  Pick a mail provider that's known for being 
responsive.

RE: Go daddy mail services admin

Yeah they usually simply do /24 blocks. From what I remember in the
blacklist 550 response it says a removal link? Something like

http://unblock.secureserver.net/?ip=x.x.x.x right?

admin on the other end actually was impossible.  My own company got 
blacklisted by GoDaddy a little over a year ago.  A user with an 
infected laptop relayed infected email out through the corporate 
firewall's NAT pool (no longer blindly permitted).  GoDaddy's response? 
  The entire /24 used by our corporate firewall was blacklisted 
intermittently for about 6 months.

Our recommendation to our clients and our SP customers is to not use 
GoDaddy's mail services.  Pick a mail provider that's known for being 
responsive.

Yeah they usually simply do /24 blocks. From what I remember in the
blacklist 550 response it says a removal link? Something like

http://unblock.secureserver.net/?ip=x.x.x.x right?


I believe that's correct.  It's a shame it doesn't accomplish anything 
(or it never has for me before).  I always had to dig until I found a 
number for them to call and complain.  Even then I only succeeded 1 out

I believe that in many (this one in particular) cases the upstream
networks do not:
1) get
2) have

relevant information in a useful format about abuse/use of their
downstream networks. When I was at AS701 there were consistently folks
who'd say this or that customer is obviously bad, why hadn't we
disconnected them? When looking through abuse tickets for issues we
could bring to management as ammo for disconnection often a majority
of complaints related to the customer in question were not complete,
didn't have enough information, didn't have ANY information in them.

How can we, as a community get better at providing complete and useful
information (ip, timestamp+timezone, act-that-caused-ire)
How can we, as a community, get better at tying together the bits and
pieces that are one issue? (atrivo/intercage/ukrtelecom/hostfresh)

As an interesting aside, there were many occasions of the last 4 years
where some horrible virus/trojan/malware thing got rolling on the
internets, tracking it back was fairly simple (for the C&C or
distribution site) to AS27595... often folks reporting the issue would
say things like:

"Oh, that's ukrtelecom, they are in the Ukraine, too bad we can't get
hands on the server/router/code/subpoena them..."
"Oh, that's something living in hostfresh, in ASPAC, gosh it'd be nice
if the FBI/HTC-group could get there and give the provider some
trouble..."

oddly in many/all of these cases the IP space might have tracked back
to somewhere not ARIN related, but an actual traceroute ended inside
AS27595. So, tying together these incidents with more complete
information would have potentially given the upstreams, or even 27595
if they are to be believed as being in the right and just framed by
their bad customers (not my belief, but...), more actionable
intelligence about their customer(s) and the ability to make an
informed decision (at a management/legal level).

Outblaze admins?

2008-10-03 Thread Paul Kelly :: Blacknight
Hi There,

If there are any people who manage outblaze can they contact me either on or 
offlist. We've been trying to get a server delisted since September 12th and 
have been completely unsuccessful. The website doesn't appear to remove the IP 
and using the contact forms to contact the postmaster has not resulted in any 
contact from them to us.

Thanks,

According to another interpretation, any invovation is allowed, although 
following it is optional and mostly dependent on peer pressure.

Subject: Used (SONET) equipment sources/lists?

I'm switching one end of a PtP DS3 to a location which only has fiber to
the carrier.  As a result, I'm really in need of a Fujitsu FlashWave
4010 or equivalent which can take a sonet-framed OC3 from a carrier and
break it out into individual DS3's.

So far, my normal sources of used equipment have come up dry - but most
of them really only deal with data networking (cisco) stuff, so it's a
bit out of their league.A long time ago (you know, like 100 internet
years ago), I used to post these type of needs to
misc.forsale.computers.net-hardware with good results, but that doesn't
look very useful anymore.

I'm hoping someone can point me towards a reseller which specializes in
this type of stuff, or another source I've overlooked.

(and no, eBay isn't a valid answer for this question... I've been
watching :)

Of course, if someone would like to tell me a easier/different (but
still reasonably inexpensive) way to break apart a SONET OC3 such that a
far end DS3 can be connected to something like a PA-A3-T3 or a  PA-T3
that would work too.

Thanks,
