AARNet AS7575 announcing 1.0.0.0/24, 1.1.1.0/24 and 1.2.3.0/24 soon

As part of the ongoing measurement of traffic in 1.0.0.0/8 three /24s from the range are shortly going to be announced by AARNet, via AS7575:

  1.0.0.0/24
  1.1.1.0/24
  1.2.3.0/24

This will be happening over the next week or so.

cheers

Hey George,

If AARNet or someone has the bandwidth, would it not be of value to announce the entire 1/8 and see what areas are targeted by traffic - clearly analysing it and removing DoS or scan traffic.

I'm just wondering if there are any /24's or space that is unsuitable to allocate inside 1/8.

...Skeeve

If only there was someone who pushed a whole lot of outbound data and had not really that much inbound - advertising 1/8 wouldn't really impact them that much. Some kind of, video sharing site, maybe?

"Accordingly, APNIC authorizes AS36351 to periodically advertise a
route for 1.0.0.0/8 from now until 21 March 2010, and
requests that AS36351's peers and upstreams accept this as a
legitimate routing advertisement."

1.0.0.0/8 has been fun. I wont steal George/Geoff's show by telling
all... but I will state that about 18% of the internet is still bogon
filtering (or using internally) 1.x... I wouldn't want to be a poor
schlub getting assigned something from this space, personally.

We're going to announce 27.128.0.0/12 in the next 24 hours as well...
To see what backscatter is like in an uninteresting range. I'll send
a separate clear message to the list about this too. :slight_smile:
