IP Analyser IPv6 functionality
by Alex Band 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

A few weeks ago the RIPE NCC introduced the production release of the IP Analyser; an LIR Portal tool to help you manage and analyse your allocations, assignments, free space and invalids: https://lirportal.ripe.net/ipanalyser/ (requires member login) Currently it only provides IPv4 functionality and we are in the process of gathering IPv6 feature requirements so we can plan a roadmap for the beginning of 2013. This is why I would like to know what kind of functionally you would like the IP Analyser to provide. I'm looking for input for invalid or incorrect DB assignments, and tools to make your IP address management easier. As warnings, the application could for example display all RIPE DB objects which have an incorrect prefix length; a sanity checker basically. So if you created an inetnum or route object with prefix "2001:0DB8:0401::/40", the application would tell you that you probably meant to create "2001:0DB8:0400::/40". For tools, the IP Analyser currently suggests prefixes out of your free IPv4 allocations for assignments, but this is not very useful in IPv6 (i.e. please suggest me a free /48 out of my /32). You would probably benefit more from a subnet calculator, an address notation validator or something else entirely. I'm looking forward to your input. Cheers, Alex Band Product Manager RIPE NCC

Is there any document to read about that "large IPv6 darknet experiment" you at Merit are going to run in accordance also with RIPE NCC? (I'm aware of what Geoff Juston made at APINIC in June 2010 with 2400::/12 https://labs.ripe.net/Members/mirjam/background-radiation-in-ipv6) I was wondering if any consensus is needed before starting such a big thing that involves IPv6 production networks as well. I mean: when my route6 is not announced via BGP, it's supposed that every packet sent to it doesn't get anywhere, hopefully. OTOH, if during this experiment, for any reason (wanted or not), my prefix is no more announced, I'm afraid the /12 would attract (perhaps hijack?) those packets (actually breaking, I believe, any existent ROA for the prefix). So, just asking: what kind of packets are going to be collected and how stored, analysed and by whom?

6a44
by Aleksi Suhonen 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Hi, A new RFC (RFC6751) defines a new transition technology called 6a44 that (re)uses 192.88.99.0/24. As an operator of a 6to4 relay router, I'm looking for implementations of 6a44. A google search yielded nothing, so I wonder if anyone here has heard of any implementations in progress? -- Aleksi Suhonen / TREX

Final draft agenda for RIPE 65
by Marco Hogewoning 21 Sep '12

21 Sep '12

Dear colleagues, Attached a copy of our latest agenda. Many thanks to everyone who submitted a talk or who suggested speakers to us. We once again have a very broad and packed agenda. We have two slots: Wednesday, September 26, from 14:00 - 15:30 CEST Thursday, September 27, from 09:00 - 10:30 CEST In case you won't be able to make it to Amsterdam, both of these sessions will be webcasted. With the help of the RIPE NCC, we will also provide options for remote participation. For more information please have a look at http://ripe65.ripe.net which will have the links to the video streams and chat boxes. Hope to see you all next week, The IPv6 Working Group chairs, Marco, David and Shane (PS: please note the order of the presentations has been changed compared to earlier versions) ====================================================================================================== IPv6 Working Group RIPE 65 Agenda Session 1: Wednesday 14:00 - 15:30 A. Welcome and administrative items - Agenda bashing - Minutes of RIPE 64 - Announcements B. Implementing IPv6 in RCS & RDS Network (Liviu Pislaru, Chief Architect for IPv6, RCS & RDS) More than 1 million RCS & RDS residential customers can now use native IPv6 on a dual stack PPPoE connection and 20% already do. Our presentation is about this achievement, more specific about history of IPv6 in our network, success factors and obstacles that we encountered. C. World IPv6 Launch (Yannis Nikolopoulos, OTE, Greece) An overview of OTE’s preparation for World IPv6 Lauch and a discussion of things that went wrong (expected or unexpected) and what was done to remedy the situation for the short and long term. D. IPv6 deployment in Forthnet (Tassos Chatzithomaoglou, Forthnet) The deployment of IPv6 dual-stack in Forthnet, also including our latest tests on DS-Lite and radius-based semi-dynamic IPv6 assignment. E. IPv6 CPE Survey 2012 (Marco Hogewoning, RIPE NCC) Introduction to the new IPv6 CPE Survey F. IPv6 RIPEness (Emile Aben, RIPE NCC) Measuring IPv6 in production at LIRs G. Wrap up Session 2: Thursday 09:00 - 10:30 H. Welcome back I. L2 issues and solutions (Eric Vyncke, Cisco) Overview of the IPv6 related layer 2 issues that got raised over time, such as user separation in shared access networks. Work being done in the IETF to resolve such issues and the current state of implementation of these techniques. J. IETF work on operational security for an IPv6 network (Merike Kaeoi, Double Shot Security) Merike will introduce the other IPv6 related security work being undertaken by the various IETF working groups. K. KATR Catalogue of (IPv6) routers (Ondrej Filip, CZ.NIC) The router catalog offers reviews of home-user routers. The main aim of our reviews is to test support of new technologies in routers, such as for the IPv6 protocol or the DNSSEC extension to DNS. L. IETF Work on transitioning techniques for multicast traffic (Tom Taylor, PT Taylor Consulting) The IETF has produced a number of tools for transition from IPv4 to IPv6, but most of them have not been specifically applicable to multicast. One tool that is specifically applicable is Automatic Multicast Tunneling (AMT, draft-ietf-mboned-64-multicast-address-format-04), which is in production in the AT&T network. RFC 6145 applies to stateless translation of multicast as well as unicast, but there is as yet no multicast equivalent to RFC 6052. Several existing drafts provide additional tools for dealing with various multicast transition scenarios. Even though they have operator support, most of them are gated on receiving evidence of more widespread support before they can proceed. The purpose of this presentation is to provoke a discussion of which if any transition scenarios will be common enough to be worth the effort of standardizing tools to deal with them. The results will be used to feed back into draft-ietf-mboned-v4v6-mcast-ps-00 in the MBONED Working Group. M. Why NAT64 must win (Andy Davidson) 5 to 10 year view of IPv6 transitional technology N. Results of the 2012 Global IPv6 Survey (Maarten Botterman, GNKS Consult) As in previous years, the Number Resource Organization (NRO) conducted a survey on the current and future use of IPv6. The purpose of the survey is to better understand where the community is moving, and what can be done to ensure the Internet community is ready and moving toward widespread adoption of IPv6. As it is mostly the same as the survey carried out globally in 2010 and 2011, comparison of progress will be possible. O. Wrap up and discussion on future work P. Closing

ipv6mon v1.0 released! (IPv6 address monitoring daemon)
by Fernando Gont 13 Sep '12

13 Sep '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Folks, We are pleased to announce the release of ipv6mon v1.0! ** Description ** ipv6mon (<http://www.si6networks.com/tools/ipv6mon>) is a tool for monitoring IPv6 address usage on a local network. It is meant to be particularly useful in networks that employ IPv6 Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (as opposed to DHCPv6), where address assignment is decentralized and there is no central server that records which IPv6 addresses have been assigned to which nodes during which period of time. ipv6mon employs active probing to discover IPv6 addresses in use, and determine whether such addresses remain active. ** Latest release ** The latest release of ipv6mon is v1.0, and is available at: <http://www.si6networks.com/tools/ipv6mon/ipv6mon-v1.0.tar.gz> ** Documentation ** PDF versions of the ipv6mon manuals are available on-line at: <http:://www.si6networks.com/tools/ipv6mon> ** GIT repository ** The GIT repository for the ipv6mon is: <https://github.com/fgont/ipv6-toolkit.git> ** IPv6 security trainings ** Development of ipv6mon is partially supported through our IPv6 security trainings. Please consider attending one of our upcoming trainings <http://www.hackingipv6networks.com/upcoming-t> Follow us on twitter: @SI6Networks Best regards, - -- Fernando Gont SI6 Networks e-mail: fgont(a)si6networks.com PGP Fingerprint: 6666 31C6 D484 63B2 8FB1 E3C4 AE25 0D55 1D4E 7492 - -- Fernando Gont e-mail: fernando(a)gont.com.ar || fgont(a)si6networks.com PGP Fingerprint: 7809 84F5 322E 45C7 F1C9 3945 96EE A9EF D076 FFF1 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJQUdI6AAoJEJbuqe/Qdv/xFIUH/1HTwIKS4fuxmEKmf5BdTV+Y lGlJ4zWiyqqxvj1ee2dMnctUvmTZrUPek8vVUsVqondAY/tv0VUhjpBPdJCZnX09 8gG8rqTVfc/mC3vSbfdCOspFviBE646Fpf/Wb5FH9TWJhXEYqRfy2BCiW2TpZCA2 KyvB66S8EuBayihzCCK6lecHKme9y1q2f/wh1xvFkwO0Za+ftYBJvfl1oY4RtJdb MkZsGIxVbh1ODAyw+8aOR6sfJB7s0pM5xrQLqcc3YMHzwtqpn5fWMqsJ9utOtDLu 6lbpt1RudenuBKsPB553Yo3LoO7ET6uISN+A1Xh8UCdsVDCK1Hi6+Y9eega/TC8= =2X3w -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Hi, Our working group is scheduled to meet on: Wed, Sep 26, 2012, 14:00 - 15:30 in the Okura Hotel in Amsterdam. We have prepared a first draft of our agenda. We do have an extra optional timeslot available on Thu, Sep 27, 9:00 - 10:30. Our current agenda topics already pretty much fill up this timeslot and we anticipate that we need the second optional timeslot if we receive more proposals for discussions and talks. Therefore, we would like to ask you whether you have any other topics that you would like to discuss during our next working group session. We don't require you to have slides, or that the topic needs to be very long: the more important thing is that it is pertinent and useful for our participants in helping to continue the ongoing deployment of IPv6 in the RIPE service region and beyond. Finally, as a reminder, the IETF will hold an interim meeting for the v6ops (as well as sidr & opsec) working group on the Saturday after the RIPE meeting (see: http://www.ietf.org/meeting/interim/v6ops-2012-09-29.txt). Thanks! David, Marco & Shane --- Draft Agenda for the IPv6 Working Group Meeting RIPE65 (v1) When: - Wed, Sep 26, 2012, 14:00 - 15:30 - Thu, Sep 27, 2012, 09:00 - 10:30 (optional) Where: Okura Hotel in Amsterdam This agenda is still a draft.

FYI: [v6ops] v6ops interim meeting as part of the Sept 29th LIM Amsterdam Netherlands.
by David Kessens 23 Aug '12

23 Aug '12

For your information, you might want to take this into consideration for your travel plans: ----- Forwarded message from joel jaeggli <joelja(a)bogus.com> ----- Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2012 15:56:32 -0700 From: joel jaeggli <joelja(a)bogus.com> To: IPv6 Ops WG <v6ops(a)ietf.org>, V6ops Chairs <v6ops-chairs(a)tools.ietf.org>, iesg-secretary(a)ietf.org, "ops-ads(a)tools.ietf.org" <ops-ads(a)tools.ietf.org> Subject: [v6ops] v6ops interim meeting as part of the Sept 29th LIM Amsterdam Netherlands. Greetings folks, The commentary on our proposal was appreciated. The slot that IAD has allocated to us is: 1330 - 1630 CEST on the 29th of Sept 2012 I am aware so far, that opsec is planning to meet in the same location from 0900-1200 and the SIDR has an interim scheduled for the entire day that Saturday. While there are some details still to be worked out it's time to get the framework in place for the interim to coincide with the end of RIPE 65, Amsterdam, 24 - 28 September 2012. <http://ripe65.ripe.net/> Location is: Hotel Okura <http://www.okura.nl/> Ferdinand Bolstraat 333 1072 LH Amsterdam +31 (0) 20 678 7493 I think we should plan to maintain an interim document submission deadline two weeks out from the meeting itself. Too be considered for inclusion in the interim agenda new or revised documented should be submitted to the IETF document system by 23:59 UTC on Sept 14th. Documents currently being hashed out on the list are certainly fair game for inclusion in the interim. I have attached the ical for the document-submission deadline to the meeting. Thanks Joel ---

IPv6 Toolkit v1.2.3 released
by Fernando Gont 13 Aug '12

13 Aug '12

Folks, We've released IPv6 toolkit v1.2.3. It is available at: <http://www.si6networks.com/tools> (tarball and git repository). The IPv6 toolkit contains a number of IPv6 security/troubleshooting tools, such as: * An IPv6 local network scanner (scan6) * An IPv6 fragmentation assessment tool (frag6) * A tool to craft arbitrary TCP/IPv6 segments (tcp6) * A tool to craft arbitrary Router Advertisements (ra6) .... and many, many others This version of the toolkit has been fully-ported to Mac OS (the list of supported systems now including, at the very least, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Linux, and Mac OS), and also incorporates a number of patches sent by the community. Any feedback on the tools will be welcome (either unicast to me, or to the ipv6hackers mailing-list <http://lists.si6networks.com/listinfo/ipv6hackers/>). Follow us on Twitter to get the latest news about the IPv6 Toolkit and IPv6 security: @SI6Networks Thanks!
