Re:RPKI ROV Deployment Reaches Major Milestone on Thursday May 02, 2024 @09:39AM (#40236143)
As of May 1, 2024, Internet routing security passed an important milestone. For the first time in the history of RPKI (Resource Public Key Infrastructure), the majority of IPv4 routes in the global routing table are covered by Route Origin Authorizations (ROAs), according to the NIST RPKI Monitor.
Re:OpenBSD 6.8 released (OpenBSD's 25th anniversary) on Monday October 19, 2020 @04:19AM (#24824259)
Nope. Keep in mind you don't need those tools to use wg. Wg was integrated in such a way that you use it with the normal tools like ifconfig
Re:WireGuard Merged into OpenBSD on Monday June 22, 2020 @08:58AM (#23599645)
I'm an OpenBSD developer and fully agree anjbe here.

OpenBSD is for REAL HUMANS. Not real "men". OpenBSD is build and designed for everyone. It is a system you can give to your 5 year old and as they learn how to use the computer they'll learn how to safely connect to the Internet. The base install literally comes with games targetting children, to help their Internet experience.

Your whole life you have been using non-free, non-functional, and insecure software.

I'm here for fun - if we want to keep as many pufferfish alive as possible until the heat death of the universe, for me it starts with installing OpenBSD. OpenBSD is nothing other than love for other humans, and we don't know if we can trust them.

Re:Is BGP Safe Yet? on Friday April 17, 2020 @04:27PM (#22902647)
You can easily do origin validation on that type of CPU. It’s a very efficient lookup.
Re:Is BGP Safe Yet? on Friday April 17, 2020 @03:42PM (#22902289)
I've made an actual study of implementing RPKI's outcome in the route-map language, and its not pretty: https://github.com/job/rpki-ov-route-map

I recommend using RTR and native origin validation, not to depend on the route-map language to accomplish the task ;-)

Re:Is BGP Safe Yet? on Friday April 17, 2020 @03:36PM (#22902237)
For the BGP portion of the work they absolutely do.
Re:Is BGP Safe Yet? on Friday April 17, 2020 @02:58PM (#22901829)
please check back in a few days, we are almost there.

you can also work with https://github.com/rpki-client/rpki-client-portable currently runs on a bunch of systems! coming to packages in the popular formats close to you soon!

Re:Is BGP Safe Yet? on Friday April 17, 2020 @02:49PM (#22901727)
a really cool way to explain RPKI, thanks for sharing!
This was just now merged in -current and will be part of OpenBSD 6.4 release in fall 2018.
This is a more regular example https://stat.ripe.net/widget/routing-history#w.resource=AS82...

this shows the routing history of the prefixes originated by AS 8283 - and their observed reachability

PC Engines APU2 with openbsd
The starting point is a BMP file of the Nyan cat which is read into a simple two dimensional array by a small python script. The script looks at the current time and maps that to a column of pixels in the BMP. Each row of pixels in the BMP is represented by one IPv4 /24. If the pixel is "on" a BGP route announcement is generated, if the pixel is "off" the route is withdrawn. Each pixel in the BMP file represents 8 hours of announcing.
On April 1st 2015 I tried to create new poems by remixing an existing body of work through reverse DNS: https://bandaancha.eu/foros/april-fools-ntt-1717230 - the original was better perhaps ;-)
Thank you for the kind words :-)
