I've been mentioning my little hobby project Netpulse a few times, so I wrote a blog post about it now.

Risky Bulletin: GitHub is starting to have a real malware problem - Risky Business Media

GitHub is slowly becoming a very dangerous website as more and more threat actors are starting to use it to host and distribute malware di [Read More]

We've released Rotonda 0.5.2, our BMP/BGP route collector, bringing back the web UI in totally revamped fashion. It's still simplistic, by design, but now offers a lot more insight in both the actual routes as well as session information.

As the UI is still evolving, we are gathering feedback. please chime in with anything that comes to mind:

Web UI feedback & ideas

In 0.5.2, we revived and overhauled the Web UI. While the web UI will always be simplistic by design, and while it will never serve every single particular use case, we aim to make it both as usable and useful as possible within these limitations. We invite everyone to provide feedback on any aspect of the web UI: what works for you and your use cases, what doesn’t, what’s missing, basically anything that comes to mind is useful feedback for us. Even if an idea might not fit the web UI as we en...

Как в Авито построили систему мониторинга BGP

Всем привет! Меня зовут Антон Ильичев, я сетевой инженер в Авито. В этой статье расскажу, зачем мы централизованно собираем и анализируем маршрутную информацию с сетевых устройств, причём тут протокол BMP и как устроена наша система мониторинга. В конце вас будет ждать лаба на docker-compose, которую вы можете запустить у себя и посмотреть на систему в действии. Статья будет полезна в первую очередь сетевым инженерам, командам SRE и мониторинга, которые отвечают за доступность и качество сервиса.

Running a FreeBSD server with two independent uplinks?

My latest deep dive covers how to mix a physical provider and a BGP tunnel to serve NAT'd, routed, and pure public jail traffic on a single bridge.

We break down Dual-FIB policy routing and show you how to use PF's rtable and reply-to directives to fix asymmetric routing and keep traffic strictly separated.

Part 3 of my hobby AS series is up: connecting my AS201379 to LocIX Düsseldorf via a dedicated FreeBSD edge router.

Covers route server peering, IPv6-in-IPv6 GIF tunnels, PF on a shared peering LAN, and iBGP back to the core.

Switzerland built a secure alternative to BGP. The rest of the world hasn't noticed yet

Feature: SCION: Proven in banking and healthcare, slow to spread everywhere else

The Register

A proposal to run #BGP over #TLS. Obvious issue: we don't want to use the classical PKI (because it would create a chicken-and-egg problem for IP).

A BGP-specific PKI, with short-lived certificates including the AS number of the BGP speaker and new introducers. (Not using the RPKI.)
