Huh…Neat.

This is not a network/project related post, but occasionally
we’ll do a search to where all our domain pops up and who
knows about our existence-

Turns out another fur on FA found us and has our website
under their favorites, that’s kind of neat! Just something
I thought was cool, and who knows, maybe one day they’ll
see this post.

Agreement Reached with MFN

We’ve been working on our agreement with Marbled Fennec Networks
in the background and have reached what we deem to be an acceptable
way of moving forward and ensuring the survival of both projects, as
well as allowing us both to do our own thing on the same hardware.
This new version is what is being used to govern interactions and
responsibilities between both of our projects as of March 25th, 2026.

[Name Servers] Updated Configuration

We have been seeing a lot of DNS amplification attacks ongoing
during the past few weeks and have adjusted our name server
configuration to start rate-limiting and dropping request a fair
bit sooner.

We have also changed the graphs that we are showing for
the server status page.

[Incident Report #031][NET] Connectivity Issues with 2602:F992:EC::/46

Update:
Appears our static route did not get migrated to the new hardware
at the data center. This has been resolved and our services should
be back online momentarily!

What Happened?
Our upstream provider performed some upkeep on the data center on
Mar 20th and since then our routed subnet has not be working properly.
We are looking into this as it affect our IPAM, NMS, PBS and a few other
services that assist us with managing our network.

This is also affects our secondary name server, as it currently does not
have IPv6 service.

We are seeing the following issues:

  • No IPv6 connectivity for NS2, affecting private and public resolution request
  • No PBS backups for either MFN, FurrIX or Maows.Gay
  • No NMS accounting or error tracking
  • No status graphs on our website are updating

What are we doing to work on this?

  • We have performed internal and external networking checks
  • We have reached out to our upstream provider with our findings

At the moment, we will have to wait to hear back from the data center.

Working to register with OpenNIC…Again

In our attempts to limit the amount of traffic that was hitting
our name server, we opted to block traffic from an ASN that
we were getting hit by.

In doing so, it also seems that we inadvertently also blocked
OpenNIC’s check servers which caused our two name servers
to fall out of their directory. We have resubmitted our information
and are waiting to see if they approve our servers again.
