Internet Country Report: Central Asia
by Suzanne Taylor 22 Sep '20

22 Sep '20

Dear colleagues, We’ve published the latest in our series of country reports, this time highlighting five countries in Central Asia. This is the fifth such country report that the RIPE NCC has produced as part of an ongoing effort to support Internet development throughout our service region by making our data and insights available to both local technical communities and decision makers. The report looks at the state of the Internet in Central Asia, including its market landscape and regulatory environment, Internet number resources and opportunities for growth, access to the domain name system and traffic exchange points, and the operators and paths providing international transit into the region. The findings are based on data collected by the RIPE NCC’s measurement platforms, along with a few external data sources. You can learn more and download the report from RIPE Labs: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/suzanne_taylor_muzzin/ripe-ncc-internet-count… <https://labs.ripe.net/Members/suzanne_taylor_muzzin/ripe-ncc-internet-count…> We’re hosting an online discussion for the local Internet community about the report’s findings and its implications for Internet governance in the region on 14 October from 10:00-11:30 CEST. You’re welcome to join in the discussion, but please note that it will take place in Russian: https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/open-house/ripe-ncc-open-house-ce… <https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/open-house/ripe-ncc-open-house-ce…> Please let us know your thoughts about the report and what kind of data and analyses you find useful. And please share it with any colleagues who might be interested. Best regards, Suzanne Taylor RIPE NCC

Measurement study on understanding global email configuration quality
by Tobias Fiebig 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Dear all, I am a researcher at TU Delft in the Netherlands, looking into Network Security, Protocol Adoption and human factors. My student Olamide is looking into how well _sending_ email setups are maintained around the globe. For this, we need many people, ideally from 'smaller' providers, i.e., with non gmail/hotmail/yahoo addresses, to send us emails. Please consider participating in this study, and sharing it in your networks. To help us, please follow the instructions at: https://www.email-security-scans.org/ Important caveat: If your mailer validates recipient addresses before accepting mails for delivery, you might be unable to send to destination addresses that are (a) only resolvable via IPv6 only, or (b) Have broken DNSSEC, which we use to test DNSSEC validation. If this is the case, please just remove the 1-3 offending addresses from the To: header. Please also note that our test setups will test whether the host delivering mails to us is an open relay. Also note that you may receive bounces from your mailserver for some of the destination addresses, e.g., if mails cannot be delivered via IPv6, or if your mail-setup validates DANE records for our DANE test domain. We do _not_ need a copy of those bounces. In case you want to get results for a domain you operate or use early, please just drop me an email from the same domain and delivering servers after you participated, and I will share the data with you. :-) Met vriendelijke groet, Dr.-Ing. Tobias Fiebig, Assistant Professor / Universitair Docent Department Engineering Systems and Services Informatie- en Communicatie Technologie (ICT) TU Delft / Dept. ESS Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management (TBM) Building 31 Jaffalaan 5 - room B3.170 2628 BX Delft P.O.Box 5015 2600 GA Delft, The Netherlands T +31 (0)15 27 85700 E t.fiebig(a)tudelft.nl Present: Monday t/m Friday

Joint interim meeting, MAT WG + IRTF MAPRG, Wednesday 5 August
by Brian Trammell (RIPE) 24 Jun '20

24 Jun '20

Greetings, all, We've heard disappointment from some of you about our decision to opt out of having a virtual meeting at RIPE 80. We made this decision in large part because we believe a big part of the utility of MAT to the community is the networking opportunities between measurement research and tools development and the Internet operations community, which are diminished in a virtual meeting, and at the time we thought waiting until the next in-person meeting was the best thing to do. As none of us now knows how long it will be until we can safely meet in person again, we thought we should make up for the missing meeting. We've also decided to try and take advantage of the virtual format by organizing something that would be difficult-to-impossible to do without heavy logistical lifting for the in-person meeting: holding a joint meeting with the IRTF's Measurement and Analysis for Protocols (MAP) Research Group. MAPRG has much the same format and goals as MATWG, but fosters exchange between measurement research and the IETF protocol engineering community; the two groups' interests overlap substantially. Together with the MAPRG chairs, we are tentatively planning to hold this meeting on Wednesday 5 August 2020 at 15:00 CEST, with remote participation details to follow. If you have something you'd like to present at this joint session, please let us know at mat-wg-chairs(a)ripe.net by Friday 3 July. Thanks, cheers, Nina and Brian
