Start of meeting time in future
As it is more appropriate for Silvia, Nino and Marco it was agreed now that in future our regular T6 VCs should start 15 minutes later, i.e. at 14:15 CET
Anyone who may have a problem with this, please tell
Refocusing of current development in JRA2T6 in upcoming months
It was decided with Jerry that in future, upcoming months the development activities (except CT development) have to be refocusing on FOD, i.e. making tangible progress on features in FOD which directly contribute to visible, useful functionality:
These features/functionalities are (ordered by priority, with most priority being on top):
1. REST API for rule creation/change/deletion (in the new version on github): get it running and tested, and if needed enhancing it
2. Replace the current NETCONF communication to the routers by direct BGP (e.g. using exabgp)
3. Rule statistics monitoring: to visualize how many packets an active rule is actually dropping/rate-limiting to enable a FOD user (= NREN NOC member) to see the effect of a rule over time (e.g. to answer when did
an mitigated attack actually stopped ?)
4. Implement logging of FOD user activities, i.e. rules created/changed/deleted, especially regarding the automated rule change (1.)
David created a initial wiki page for development information of FOD which currently only contains the link to (new) github version: JRA2T6 Work Items / Firewall On Demand
Tomas agreed that he and Vaclav will provide development man power in next months and help so to get the new FOD version running, tested and will help to implement needed features
For this, David will liaise with Evangelos to get ssh accounts for Tomas and Vaclav on FOD testing machines (both will provide ssh keys for this purpose)
First goals are to get known to FOD code and installation (of new version) and then to test its REST API
Status of FOD
no progress regarding trial to get old FOD running with python2.7 on second testing machine
Status of RepShield/NERD Status
Status of DDoS detection/mitigation WG
Testing fastnetmon by Nino
Already mirroring GARR netflow data to fastnetmon
still have to tune exporter parameters (of production routers), as non production-influencing method for this is investigated
Nino will provide first intermediate testing results of fastnetmon on wiki in fastnetmon testing
DDoS Survey
David will Ask Evangelos how to distribute the survey in coordinated and polite way to the mailing lists provided by Simona (maybe ask Nicole Harris)
Status of CT
Release plan will be updated in jira: have two releases, v0.9 and v1.0alpha, before eof year
DFN Cert installed inofficial v0.9: provided info and feedback
bootstrapping trust via VCs and pgp keys (Web of Trust) done for future key/configuration distribution
"GN Best Practice Guide for Virtual Meetings" and
"Team Communication Plan (TCP)"
everyone may check the respective documents (attached to the mails of the invitation to this meeting and the mail informing about these notes) and may think about how we may use the recommendations to improve our future meetings and the task communication in general
Next regular T6 VC
In 4 weeks, as in 2 weeks David is on another GN meeting, i.e. 14.12.2016, 14:15-14:45 CEST
David will individually contact all members about status before this one in 2 weeks
