[AusNOG] .AU Dns Issue?

[Stuart Cole]

Hi Mark,

This was my thoughts exactly. This is a massively significant event but yet
It seems to have flown almost completely under the radar.

AusReg had nothing on their notifications page and pretty early on in the
event we called them up and told them what we were seeing and got a “oh
really! can you please send that through in an email?”

So either their customer facing staff were unaware and the higher level
techs were.. or the more scary scenario is that an external organisation
(us) had to tell them about this because their monitoring was so poor that
they didn’t know.

Regards,

Stuart Cole.
Operations Manager
