Hi there!
Thanks for the answers. I've tried to call KOBIK, but they have a) no direct
phone number and b) give no answers on the phone. Not very motivating of an
ISP who wants to make a good job.
However, i've entered the form at
http://www.cybercrime.admin.ch/content/kobik/de/home/meldeformular.html and
now we wait and see.
If i'm allowed to publicly post the answer from them, i'll do so when it
arrives.
Best wishes & happy weekend,
Matthias

Hi folks
We've got a request from a potential client if we're able to host a bet
website in switzerland. It's about sports and looks like Toto-X. Is it legal
for us as ISP to host such a site? I know the rules when porn is involved,
but habe no informations about bet websites.
Thanks for your answers & have a nice weekend,
Matthias

Hi folks,
Something interresting also for you the ISPs present here:
https://ring.nlnog.net/ we have joined today too, and so can you (given
you have an ASN etc and match the other requirements
Slideware from yesterday's RIPE presentation:

and even a video:

* Motivation
I’ve noticed that there are a lot of friendly ‘shell access’ exchange
deals between network operators. This makes it easier for parties to
debug network issues and troubleshoot ‘from the outside’. A point of
view outside your network is absolutely essential, seeing what others
see is a useful thing with a variety of network problems. Well known
examples are ‘it works for even numbered ip address, but not for odd
numbered ip address via this and this route’.
To encourage and provide a streamlined way of cooperating I introduce
the ”NLNOG RING”. In essence the deal is very simple: you make a
(virtual) machine available to the RING, and you gain access on all
servers which are part of the project, hence the name “RING”.
A great example would be to launch a traceroute from 80 servers in
different networks and quickly get the results instead of waiting till
somebody has the time to run some tests for you.
* Participation
Participation is open to everybody who meets the following requirements:
You are a network operator
The organisation you work for has BGP routers connected to the ”Default
Free Zone” and maybe even IXP’s.
Your organisation has its own ASN, IPv4 and IPv6 prefix(es).
You have enable or configure rights on those routers.
You are involved in the networkers community.
You have permission from your organisation to become involved in the
NLNOG RING.

Hi SWnogers,
I am looking for the presentation from last meeting. It seams that they are
not available at the usual place. Any change here or "work in progress"?

For those of you who have some spare time this weekend, there is a piece of entertainment written by the so-called USA government which sack Switzerland over IP protection. You will be amazingly surprised to hear that Switzerland is a magnet for rogue sites. Considering the tightness of Art. 67, it must be an irony note from some officials to make sure their fellow colleagues do read what they write.
[…]
Switzerland
Switzerland’s copyright law is inadequate, making it a home for rogue sites whose clear purpose is to facilitate and enable massive unauthorized making available of pirated material. It must be updated to provide for meaningful enforcement efforts against digital piracy. Until these changes are made, Switzerland will continue to be a magnet for rogue sites. Switzerland must ensure basic accountability for enterprises that profit from widespread infringement and clarify that copying from illegal sources is illegal. In doing so, Switzerland will fulfill its obligations under the WIPO Internet Treaties and other international copyright norms.

Nice weekend.
Hi All,
We have a project in need of SPARC hardware, ideally T3 or somewhere like that based ... Have some of you older hardware to sell ?
Thanks in advance !
I wanted to let you know we've created a dedicated page for all developer documentation about our different APIs.
Apart from the best known one for the RIPE Database REST API, there is also documentation for the RIPE NCC LIR Portal API, giving you access to all your (private) resource information, such as ASNs, IPv4 and IPv6 allocations, Assignment Window history, PI assignments, Legacy space, etc.
In addition, there is also an IP Analyser API, giving you the ability to get an overview of all the assignments you've made, what available free space you have in your allocations and all invalid assignments that require your attention.
Lastly, there are APIs for RIPE Stat and RIPE Atlas data, providing you with a wealth of Internet measurements, data analysis and statistics.
Have a look at http://ripe.net/developers
Cheers,
Alex Band
Product Manager
