IRR Lockdown

By Job Snijders, NTT Communications

Abstract

Although many consider the existing IRR system to be a tarpit of stale, incorrect data with plentyful opportunity to insert rogue route objects, there is a glimmer of hope on the horizon! We devised a new routing security mechanism to generate route filters. This method does a far better job at protecting RIPE managed space. This talk covers what the intentions and implications of NTT’s routing policy change are.

NTP and Ntimed

By Poul-Henning Kamp

Abstract

Network Time Protocol is one of the ancient application protocols still in widespread use, but the software everybody runs needs an update. This talk is about “Ntimed”, a new NTP implementation for modern levels of security, OaM and efficiency.

Bio

Poul-Henning Kamp published his first FOSS program some time in the late 1980s and he has been involved in FOSS ever since. He has been a major force in FreeBSD, where amongst many other things he renovated the timekeeping code. These days he works a lot on the Varnish HTTP accelerator and on a new family of time-synchronization programs called Ntimed. He is also a diagnosed time-nut, having far more atomic frequency standards, GPS receivers and LORAN-C receivers than anybody would ever need.
