Now we are accepting the proposals for presentations from intended BCOP documents authors for our next RIPE meeting in Warsaw. If you are willing to start working on your own Best Current Operational Practices - BCOP document and talk about that in Warsaw (and maybe get some co-authors), please get in touch with Jan or myself.

Greetings, May I take this opportunity to suggest that you (& anyone else listening that doesn't already have two levels of prevention on their BGP customers) implement a BGP max-prefix setting on your customer peer-groups to prevent this sort of incident in the future (in addition to using per-customer prefix filters)? Plenty of networks are rolling out IPv6; <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_Public_Key_Infrastructure">RPKI</A> may take longer...

Content Providers and IPv6
by Chris Grundemann 26 Nov '13

26 Nov '13

Hail BCOPers! I've had quite a bit of interest from several folks in BCOPs for deploying IPv6 at a content provider. Who has experience in this realm? We need a few SMEs with real experience to put this together. Please respond if you are interested and I'll help organize the effort. CDNs are another (subset) area to look into as well - calling all SMEs... Thanks! ~Chris -- @ChrisGrundemann http://chrisgrundemann.com

DNS open resolver BCP
by Blake Willis 16 Oct '13

16 Oct '13

Greetings BCOP list, Sitting here in the DNS WG at RIPE67, it seems like a key task for the BCOP project is creating a repository (or pointers) to getting one's DNS servers properly configured & secured (the largest sources of DNS amp/reflection traffic are the networks with the least clue, & the least-deployed BCP38). There are certainly plenty of resources out there (including vendor documentation) but "google.com/search?q=DNS+open+resolver+BCP" isn't particularly conclusive. I feel the task at hand is really more of an education campaign than a technical problem...

I do. :-) I can understand that if a network has two different locations, with no backbone, that split up their space in two. But all to often I see networks announcing both more specific and covering aggregate, with only one endpoint, so the more specifics just waste space. > 2. anti-spoofing > 3. topology and connectivity Maybe a strong recommendation can be put in the code that a participant promises to keep peeringdb.com up2date? > 4. collaboration and coordination Here too peeringdb often plays a vital role in contacting the other party to cooperate to resolve an issue. > Any of these items? Only 4? Anything missing we'd like to include? 5. Enabling others in debugging efforts Maybe this falls under under one of the four other subjects, but I desperatly want networks to offer looking glasses from multiple points in their network, for both IPv4 and IPv6 with BGP, ping and traceroute, without a captcha, without a members login :-) > - I also got a comment regarding "Participation Requirements", > > 1.

Public endorsement on the website (leave internal specifics to the > ISP and leave assessment to the operator community) > 4. Something different 1 or 3 is fine by me. I envision slapping networks with the code when they publicly endorse it but don't abide by it. One of the strongest drivers in this industry is the fear for name and shame I suppose, we all want to act like well educated boys because everything is visible. :-) Kind regards, Job

BCOP BoF in Athens
by Jan Zorz - ISOC 12 Oct '13

12 Oct '13

Good people on BCOP@RIPE mailing list ;) In Athens we have scheduled a BCOP BoF on monday at 18h, after the plenary part of RIPE meeting ends - this time the BoF will be "lead" by Benno Overeinder and myself. Thnx Benno for volunteering :) Benno and myself will do the lightning talk update on BCOP activities around the world on the same day at around 17h during the plenary, so be there to learn what's going on globally. You are all invited to attend the BoF, we'll discuss many interesting things and initiatives for operational documents. We identified some topics and some people already started doing some work. I'll present the beta-preview-draft of the document titled "Generic IPv6 troubleshooting procedures for helpdesks around the world", with contributors and co-authors Lee Howard, John Jason Brzozowski, David Freedman, Jason Fesler, Tim Chown, Sander Steffann, Chris Grundemann and myself. We'll also discuss the proposal from Andrei Robachevsky (ISOC) of creating a routing code of conduct, an interesting initiative to make Internet better. We might get Nick Hilliard interested to talk about BGP operational practices at IXP and so on. If anyone is interested in participating and presenting the work on the operational document that is being done - more than welcome to send an email to Benno or me. See you all on Monday afternoon in Athens, join us and bring everyone that is interested in operational practices. Cheers, Jan Zorz

Hi, For the BCOP BoF on Monday at RIPE 67 in Athens, we have a (provisional) agenda of about one hour. Some of you already indicated that they are willing to give a short presentation on some ideas for a document, but there is still room for other enthusiast presenters to discuss a subject. Please contact us or send a mail to BCOP list. Here is the provisional agenda: - Positioning and grand perspective of local BCOP initiatives and interaction between the groups. Update of feedback on BCOP in other regions like ARIN/NANOG, LACNIC, APNIC, etc. - Brief overview of subjects that have been proposed, see http://www.internetsociety.org/deploy360/about/bcop/topics/ - Two (or more?) detailed/in-depth discussions of topics. - Discussion & closing: Who is willing to work on (part of) items, next steps, etc. Best regards, Jan and Benno -- Benno J.
