You are correct and McAfee is confused.

http://root-servers.org/news/events-of-20151130.txt

   DNS root name servers that use IP anycast observed this
   traffic at a significant number of anycast sites.

This implies that the botnet was widely distributed.

   The source addresses of these particular queries appear to be
   randomized and distributed throughout the IPv4 address space.

This says the attackers also used spoofing.

Opinions on Cologix data centers?

2015-12-14 Thread David H
Hello; was curious if anyone has opinions on Cologix?  Any aspect would be
of interest; management, financials, colo quality (power, a/c, etc).  The
specific facility I'm looking at is their Lakeland FL building which began
life under a company called Colo 5 that they purchased; it's only two years
old.  They seem to have been on a buying spree recently with other colo
buildings.

Thanks,

David

I used/inherited them in Montreal after they bought out a series of colos.
The corporate management team is good and I would work with them again.
They saw themselves as partners and not just a vendor. The local DC
manager/team was honest and easy to work with and they were very
knowledgeable.

The quality of the facility and success of your projects depends in great
deal on what they bought and what stage they are at in upgrading it. In my
case, the original DC had some design issues they were battling with
related to the previous owner + unplanned growth that forced some poor
decisions. Cologix did, however, redesign everything and make some major
investments in the facility. We saw improvements come out every few months.

Hi David,

We've been in their facility in Dallas for about a year now and have had
great luck with them. Very happy with there service.

DISCLAIMER: We have our own AS and do not buy bandwidth from them, so I
can not attest to their connectivity, but their power and cooling have
been consistently awesome.

Re: Turkey .tr domains un-resolvable over IPv4 ?

2015-12-14 Thread Jared Mauch
I was told this was done due to a DDoS attack that originated outside turkey.  
I have been unable to locate someone with enough details that they could be 
assisted to bring this back online.  We did look into traffic patterns 
on-network and saw attack traffic prior to the routes going away but without a 
route it’s much harder to assist.

Anyone at nic.tr or RIPE that has been working this is welcome to contact me 
off-list for assistance.

I’m actually quite surprised it took so many hours to make NANOG, and hasn’t 
yet made the DNS-operations list.
