The full Daily Meeting Report, including photos, links to presentations, webcasts and further information, can be found at: http://ripe63.ripe.net/programme/report/tuesday/ Plenary Day two of RIPE 63 began with a busy Plenary session, with talks on "DDoS Attack Trends Through 2009-2011", the "Reputation of Networks ? RIPE Region" and "Operational Experiences in Deploying 100 GbE". The RIPE NCC talked about "IPv4 and IPv6 assignments for RIPE NCC Routing Information Service" and "Resource Request for Business Operations". There were several comments from the audience about this and it was left to the community to decide the outcome during the Closing Plenary on Friday. The second Plenary session continued the focus on technical issues, starting with a presentation on transit costs, followed by BGP policy violations in the data-plane, and an analysis of IPv6 latencies. A study of measured trends in IPv6 adoption looked primarily at trends seen around and following World IPv6 Day. The third Plenary session saw RIPE NCC's Managing Director, Axel Pawlik, share the RIPE NCC's plan for contacting legacy space holders in the RIPE NCC service region. The presentation prompted a lot of participation from the audience, many of whom were legacy space holders themselves. Axel encouraged legacy space holders, even those with particularly specific situations, to contact the RIPE NCC. RIPE Chair, Rob Blokzijl, supported the efforts to "blow off the dust" of legacy address space. IPv6 remains a hot topic at RIPE Meetings, with a talk on "IPv6 Deployment Beauty Pageant" and a four-person panel discussing "CPE and End-User IPv6". Audience comments indicated that having hardware providers speaking about IPv6 deployment was an encouraging indication that things were moving in the right direction. Next, several interesting Lightning Talks were held and David Kessens, reported from a draft document currently reviewed by the IETF: IANA Reserved IPv4 prefixes for shared CGN space and urged everyone to look at the draft and participate in the discussion. At the end of the session, Marco Hogewoning, WG co-Chair, introduced 'speed dating' between those who have deployed IPv6 and those busy deploying it. IPv6 Working Group Shane Kerr, ISC, gave a presentation on renumbering for enterprise networks and the IETF Working Group that has been established to look at this issue, seeking operator feedback on their work. The update to RIPE Document, ripe-501, "Requirements for IPv6 in ICT Equipment", which will conclude its Last Call phase next week, was discussed. Constanze B?rger delivered an update on the German government's roll-out of a federal IPv6 network, which led to some discussion and Timo Hilbrink provided an update on the IPv6 deployment of Dutch ISP XS4ALL. Anti-Abuse Working Group There was a good mix of the technical, the practical and the policy at the Anti-Abuse Working Group session. Joao Damas, ISC, gave an interesting presentation on passive DNS. Laura Cobley, Customer Services Manager at the RIPE NCC, spoke about how to report abuse to the RIPE NCC. She received many helpful suggestions on how the process should work. Michele Neylon, Blacknight, talked about how hosting companies deal with abuse. The session ended with lengthy discussion on interactions with governments and legal enforcement agencies.

The full Daily Meeting Report, including photos, links to presentations, webcasts and further information, can be found at: http://ripe63.ripe.net/programme/report/wednesday/ Address Policy Working Group Emilio Madaio, RIPE NCC Policy Development Officer, gave on overview of "Current Policy Topics" and the "Policy Development Office Activities". Alex le Heux, RIPE NCC, continued with "Feedback from RIPE NCC Registration Services", showing how the implementation can take from days to years. The APWG co-Chairs announced their intention to declare consensus on proposal 2011-02, "Removal of multihomed requirement for IPv6 PI". 2011-04, "Extension of the Minimum Size for IPv6 Initial Allocation" and 2011-05, "Safeguarding future IXPs with IPv4 space" were presented and discussed. Dave Wilson, HEAnet, gave an overview "On Inter-RIR Transfers" and asked for discussion on whether we need an inter-RIR transfer policy. The RIPE NCC was requested to evaluate the current transfer policy. Rob Blokzijl then introduced his initiative for the "IPv4 Maintenance Policy" document. Shane Kerr, ISC, explained the conclusions from yesterday's IPv6 WG session about IPv6 renumbering. The last item on the agenda was a review of the withdrawn policy 2008-08, "Initial Certification Policy in the RIPE NCC Service Region". ENUM Working Group The ENUM WG started with Wolfgang Nagele, RIPE NCC, giving an update of the RIPE NCC's ENUM service. Patrik Faltstrom, Cisco, gave a short presentation about User ENUM in Sweden. The third presenter, Lino Santos, reported about the progress made with ENUM in Portugal. Most of the WG session was covered by an interesting panel discussion with ENUM experts from various countries and a speaker from from TERENA. The discussion focused around why ENUM is not so successful and if ENUM itself is a service or if it is an underlying technology on which services can be based. An action was assigned to contact all ENUM operators between now and RIPE 64. Routing Working Group Geoff Huston, APNIC, presented the mystery of "The Flat World of BGP" and Thomas Mangin, EXA Networks Ltd., presented on exaBGP and asked for feedback. Randy Bush, IIJ, presented the "Impact of the Tohoku Earthquake on Japanese ISPs" and concluded this was a boring event; the Internet worked around failures. He also presented on the CPU load of BGPSEC. Daniel Karrenberg, RIPE NCC, asked for input on the usefulness of RIS routing beacons. The responses were that they were useful. There was an action on the RIPE NCC to publish the IPv6 Routing Recommendations document. RIPE NCC Services Working Group The RIPE NCC Services Working Group was the final session of the day. Following an introduction to the newly composed Senior Management team by Axel Pawlik, RIPE NCC Managing Director, there was an update from the RIPE NCC Senior Managers on the organisation's various activities, priorities and developments and the results of the RIPE NCC Membership and Stakeholder Survey 2011. There were presentations on the RIPE NCC's preparation for the distribution of the last remaining IPv4 address space, and on the progress of the RIPE NCC's project on Contractual Relationship Requirements for End Users. Finally, Daniel Karrenberg, RIPE NCC Chief Scientist, reported on the development and future plans for RIPE Atlas. PGP Key-Signing Party The PGP Key-Signing Party has been a regular feature at the last few RIPE Meetings, and RIPE 63 was no exception. While cryptography ensures the secrecy of communication, it is important to establish a ?web of trust? so that the authenticity of the involved parties is also known with a high degree of confidence. The RIPE Meeting presents an ideal opportunity for attendees to meet, exchange, verify and sign each others' public keys. Yesterday?s Key-Signing Party was attended by 10-15 people and will be continued at future RIPE meetings.

The full Daily Meeting Report, including photos, links to presentations, webcasts and further information, can be found at: http://ripe63.ripe.net/programme/report/thursday/ Address Policy Working Group The third AP WG session started on Thursday with discussion on the IPv6 PI/PA unification proposal made by Gert Doering, AP Working Group co-Chair. There was an analysis of special cases, the costs and the "multiple blocks per LIR" scenario that would result from the unification. The RIPE NCC was tasked to look into possible reasons why LIRs would like to be able to request multiple prefixes. More feedback was encouraged on the mailing list. During the Open Policy Hour, the recent RFC 6382, published by the IETF, was presented. Some possible interpretation issues with the ripe-525 policy, "Autonomous System (AS) Number Assignment Policy" were highlighted. The attendees present reached the conclusion that a policy proposal should not be submitted. DNS Working Group The first session of the DNS Session WG had a very diverse set of presentations, ranging from an update by the RIPE NCC, an update on the DANE work in IETF, to DNS configuration management and two different implementations of an authoritative DNS server. The second DNS session started with an interesting presentation about the excessive increased query load on the root name servers that occurred for a brief time this summer, followed by a presentation on "DNSSEC Trigger". There was also an update on the "IDN Variant Issues Project" and an update on the status of the DNSEASY and SSR Meetings. The session ended with a very engaging panel discussion, ranging from the technical to the political implications of blocking or rewriting DNS query results at the registry or ISP level and how that affects operators throughout the world. EIX Working Group The first presentation of the session was an introduction to the local peering scene in Austria, given by Christian Panigl, VIX. There was then an update on EIX activities, which included the new IPv4 policy and switch wishlist. Remco van Mook, Equinix, and Martin Pels, AMS-IX, offered to help with the document. The session continued with a presentation on "Monitoring Platforms for Internet Exchange Points" and "Jumbo Frames in AMS-IX", which prompted many in the audience to voice their opinions. The second EIX WG session began with a presentation on "Extended Communities for Route-Servers and ASN32", followed by "How to Resolve Edge Redundancy for Peering". Next up was Joao Damas, ISC, who talked about the Open Source Routing project he was working on. There were two presentations on problems experienced with Proxy-ARP and discussion focused on why this happened. A Cisco representative said he would bring this feedback back to Cisco. The session ended with on open mic session of lightning updates. RIPE Database Working Group The RIPE NCC shared the latest RIPE Database developments. RIPE NCC staff members, Kaveh Ranjbar and Denis Walker, presented on the action points from the RIPE 62 Meeting, all of which have been completed. The main discussion of the session was about the geolocation service. The RIPE NCC showed a prototype of the service and the WG Chair will present the proposed way forward on the RIPE Database mailing list. The RIPE NCC was also requested to investigate how internationalisation could be made possible and what would need to be done if it is decided to fully serve the data in utf-8. As reported in the Anti-Abuse WG earlier this week, a requirement of an abuse contact i in the RIPE Database will start the PDP in the coming weeks.. This is the result of the Abuse Contact Task Force. An other issue raised was that objects sponsored by an LIR are not shown in the RIPE Database. The mailing list will be used to analyse how to move forward. Cooperation Working Group The RIPE Cooperation Working Group met in the final session of the day, and included a remote presentation from European Commission representative Andrea Glorioso, who emphasised the need for more synchronisation between the RIPE community and the Commission. Chris Buckridge, RIPE NCC, gave an update on the Internet Governance Forum 2011, while Nurani Nimpuno, Netnod, spoke about the work of the United Nations CSTD Working Group on "Improvements to the IGF". MAT Working Group The session started with NIC Brazil reporting on how RIPE TTM data is being used in real time in Brazil. Next there was a presentation on Google's "Measurement Lab (M-Lab)" . After the talk, a number of people asked if Google was considering integrating or sponsoring RIPE Atlas. Wolfgang Nagele, RIPE NCC, then presented on "PCAP Analysis with HADOOP". The session concluded with two presentations by the RIPE NCC, one of which updated the audience on the recent developments in the RIPE NCC's measurements activities. The other announced the introduction of user defined measurements for RIPE Atlas. David Freedman, Claranet, then asked the audience how the reachability of a prefix could be measured so that people can build filters properly and proposed an experiment. Interest was expressed and he said he would formulate a more solid proposal. IPv6 Privacy BoF An IPv6 Privacy BoF was held in the Park Congress I room following the last working group sessions of the day. The German NGO Arbeitskreis Vorratsdatenspeicherung?s (Working Group on Data Retention) position on how user privacy should be supported by ISPs and software/hardware vendors was discussed as well as how privacy concerns will influence ISPs? IPv6 assignment practices.
