From rumy at ripe.net Tue Nov 1 09:04:47 2005 From: rumy at ripe.net (Rumy Kanis) Date: Tue, 01 Nov 2005 10:04:47 +0200 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] RIPE NCC Launches E-Learning Centre Message-ID: <4367219F.9040606@ripe.net> [Apologies for duplicate e-mails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC is proud to announce the launch of its E-Learning Centre (http://e-learning.ripe.net). The E-Learning Centre is a free resource available to both members of the RIPE NCC and non-members. The E-Learning Centre will: - Enable users to learn in their own space and at their own pace - Supplement the training courses provided by the RIPE NCC - Allow users to contact the RIPE NCC trainers for additional help and support The E-Learning Centre launched on 1 November 2005 with an introduction to creating and updating basic RIPE Database objects. In January 2006, the RIPE NCC is planning to add a second module, covering the RIPE Policy Development Process. The RIPE NCC plans to develop further modules for the E-Learning Centre based on feedback from users. Plans are already underway for additional modules covering subjects such as DNS for LIRs, Advanced Database Objects and IRRToolset. The E-Learning Centre is available at: http://e-learning.ripe.net If you have any questions or feedback about the RIPE NCC E-Learning Centre, please e-mail: Regards, Rumy Kanis Training Services Manager RIPE NCC -- RIPE NCC Online learning... at your pace in your space http://e-learning.ripe.net From berni at birkenwald.de Tue Nov 1 17:29:54 2005 From: berni at birkenwald.de (Bernhard Schmidt) Date: Tue, 01 Nov 2005 17:29:54 +0100 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] Streaming coverage on RIPE meetings Message-ID: <43679802.70305@birkenwald.de> Hi, apologies if this is the wrong list to discuss this matter. Is there any way to provide a better video stream at the next RIPE meeting? The current solution with 320x240 WMV1 encoded video makes most slides more or less unreadable, and the audio isn't that good either (according to mplayer 8kHz, but stereo, with some pretty old WMA codec). I'd love to see an unicast video stream with a higher resolution and a better codec (I'm sure I can offer some relays in various locations if needed due to increased bandwidth). Additionally, a medium-bandwidth standard MPEG2-TS stream for distribution in IPv4 and IPv6 multicast would be really appreciated (again, I think I can offer reflectors if needed).

Several presentations have not been available on-line during the meetings. As far as I can remember several working groups have been still missing presentations on the website one week after. Additionally, having the presentation is one thing, being able to follow the arising discussions without getting a headache from blocking video and noisy audio the whole day is another. Have a look at the webcast archive on the RIPE website.

We don't expect this to disrupt any RIPE NCC services, though you may notice some small delays. This maintenance is necessary after a high load on one of our border routers caused some service disruption on 29 September 2005. Since then, we have made configuration changes to improve load balancing between the border routers. Unfortunately this has not been as beneficial as we had hoped, and the load continues to increase. The router is approaching its maximum capacity. We have decided to replace the router with a more powerful one. We apologise for inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions, please send e-mail to .

We have completed the upgrade and will continue to bring up your peering session. You should see it return at some point today. If we have any problems with this, we will contact you and ask for a new MD5 password. If you have any further questions, please send an e-mail to .

Unfortunately, the work took longer than expected and we encountered some problems that affected our network connectivity and some of our services. We are pleased to announce that we have now resolved the problems and everything is back to normal. More details: During the replacement of one of our routers, we discovered that MD5 passwords became corrupt, leading to broken peering sessions. By the close of business on 4 November, we had re-established 90% of sessions. On 5 November, we completed the planned maintenance and rebooted the router. This reboot caused the RIPE NCC network to become unreachable by that part of the Internet that preferred a BGP path to the router. We detected and resolved the issue by 18.30 UTC on 6 November. All peering sessions are now restored. Packet loss, which lead to the original decision to replace the router, has disappeared. The TTM and RIS services were affected by the network incident during the weekend. After this was resolved, data collection started again and due to the resilient design of the system, no data was lost. We apologise for any convenience this may have caused.

During Phase 2 of the WSIS in Tunis, 16-18 November 2005, the NRO will be participating in the Internet Pavilion (http://www.nro.net/archive/news/WSIS-leaflet11.pdf) at the ICT4all exhibition. The RIPE NCC is participating in the Internet Pavilion as part of its continued efforts to support and represent the interests of its membership and the RIPE community to Internet industry groups and government. The main goal of these activities remains the promotion of the open, bottom-up, industry self-regulatory structure common to all Regional Internet Registry (RIR) communities in managing Internet address resources. The Internet Pavilion will bring together a number of the key organisations that are, among other industry partners, responsible for both day-to-day management and policy development in the Internet sphere. Through the Internet Pavilion, we hope to work together with WSIS participants to promote a greater understanding of existing Internet governance mechanisms and how these relate to the recommendations of the Working Group on Internet Governance (WGIG) Final Report and wider WSIS principles. The RIPE NCC is assisting in the NRO's education, communication, and outreach efforts, which include: - Multimedia presentations on RIR history, the NRO, and IP addressing and routing - An NRO fact sheet available in many languages (including English, French, Arabic and Russian) - Brochures and fact sheets on technical and RIR-specific issues - Newsletters, articles, and other documentation More information about the NRO's participation in the Internet Pavilion is available at: http://www.nro.net/archive/news/wsis-exhibition-info.html More information about the Internet Pavilion is available at: http://www.nro.net/archive/news/WSIS-leaflet11.pdf Regards Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC From laura at ripe.net Fri Nov 18 10:07:10 2005 From: laura at ripe.net (Laura Cobley) Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2005 10:07:10 +0100 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] Improved wording for request forms Message-ID: <20051118100710.78344e50.laura@ripe.net> [Apologies for duplicates.] Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce the publication of two updated RIPE documents. ripe-361 IPv4 First Allocation Request Form ripe-362 Supporting Notes for the IPv4 First Allocation Request Form We have improved the wording of these documents without changing the actual content of the request forms.
