Reg - IPV6 allocation method changes from block based to delegations based for NIR
by Gaurav Kansal 22 Dec '21

22 Dec '21

Dear Team, Mr George Michaelson , in his blog , https://blog.apnic.net/2021/12/17/the-space-between-ipv6-allocations-part-2/ , mentioned that APNIC has changed the block based allocation method to delegations for NIRs (when and why was not mentioned in the blog). As per my understanding, it’s like APNIC used to allocate big IPV6 block to NIR (for further allocation to its members) which has now been changed to direct delegations to members instead of NIR. A big block to NIR can help in super netting the v6 announcement at NIR (or at country level) , which can help in reducing the routing table size in long terms AND can also have IPv6 allocations in consecutive order for the economies where we have NIRs. APNIC still allots ASN block to NIRs for further allocation to NIR members. So my question is what leads to change in IPv6 allocation method for NIRs ?? This is posted in INNOG , SANOG , APNIC-TALK mailing and a ticket with apnic helpdesk for getting the authenticated response from the source itself.

IPv4 Rechability issue between AS210777 & AS55836
by Daryll Swer 14 Dec '21

14 Dec '21

Hi Folks Does anybody know who I can reach out to for the following issue? My freshly allocated prefix (*103.176.189.0/24 <http://103.176.189.0/24>) *is unable to communicate with Reliance Jio's VoWiFi end-point on AS55836. And hence my Jio numbers are unable to work with VoWiFi when the source IPv4 address is originating from 103.176.189.0/24. [image: image.png] *--* Best Regards Daryll J. L.

Spoofer Report for INNOG for Nov 2021
by CAIDA Spoofer Project 08 Dec '21

08 Dec '21

In response to feedback from operational security communities, CAIDA's source address validation measurement project (https://spoofer.caida.org) is automatically generating monthly reports of ASes originating prefixes in BGP for systems from which we received packets with a spoofed source address. We are publishing these reports to network and security operations lists in order to ensure this information reaches operational contacts in these ASes. This report summarises tests conducted within ind. Inferred improvements during Nov 2021: ASN Name Fixed-By 24560 AIRTELBROADBAND 2021-11-05 55836 RELIANCEJIO-IN 2021-11-13 Further information for the inferred remediation is available at: https://spoofer.caida.org/remedy.php Source Address Validation issues inferred during Nov 2021: ASN Name First-Spoofed Last-Spoofed 24560 AIRTELBROADBAND 2016-03-12 2021-11-23 55836 RELIANCEJIO-IN 2017-03-03 2021-11-30 132976 KINGSBROADBAND 2018-09-17 2021-11-24 138731 KOVAIFN 2020-11-08 2021-11-14 139547 VIMITEL1 2021-04-10 2021-11-30 132960 MNET 2021-09-16 2021-11-01 134004 FOXTEL 2021-11-23 2021-11-23 Further information for these tests where we received spoofed packets is available at: https://spoofer.caida.org/recent_tests.php?country_include=ind&no_block=1 Please send any feedback or suggestions to spoofer-info(a)caida.org

Question about optical to RF converters
by Anurag Bhatia 07 Dec '21

07 Dec '21

Hello folks, Anyone here running a cable tv network besides being an ISP? I recently saw some optical to RF converter nodes hanging around in the city. Couldn't take a picture but a quick search leads to me something like this <https://www.amazon.in/vision-gold-Optical-Receiver-Powerless/dp/B083BVWL3W/…>. This seems fascinating and I see videos of cable TV players on YouTube using these optical to RF converters before their set-top box. Wondering how these work without power (as advertised)? Is there enough power going "outwards" in a regular cable TV set-top box to power the photoreceivers in these adapters? In the case of DTH boxes, they send 30V (and some minor Amps) to dish on the rooftop to power the LNB. Is the case in the cable tv world as well? If not, how can one have electrical RF output without any concept of reverse power? Thanks -- Anurag Bhatia anuragbhatia.com
