We are seeing absurd amounts of wordpress attack traffic coming from the country of Singapore and have updated our network rules to drop traffic originating from the country for the time being.

Upkeep avali for FurrIX, typically hides in the NOC
PHY One has had kernel and package updates applied after 181 days on uptime. Found a quiet spot to process updates and reboot the machine.
It is going to take a bit of time to do so, but our volunteers are working on the steps needed to spin FurrIX off into its own project. Doing so will give that project the ability to focus on just networking and being a transit/connectivity provider and will transition MFN into a game services, name server and VPS hosting provider.
FurrIX will be getting its own NMP, TOS and goals as part of this move. That project will be responsible entirely for all of the shared routing gear, network design and transit services. MFN will retain control of the IP allocations but will essentially delegate full network administration to FurrIX for the next two years of operations with some conditions on use and expectations regarding service to Marbled Fennec Networks.
As part of this, Adrian will be giving her position on the board for MFN to Ty Dwagon as they will taking control of Marbled Fennec Networks. Adrian will be moving into a lead position with FurrIX to only handle networking and transit going forward.
The certs for NS1, NS2 and the web server have been updated. Will update the mail server in a bit.
