Updates on the Name Servers

We are still seeing the attack ongoing and are still dropping IPv4 traffic involving the country of Brazil for right now.

To make an effort to not cut off everyday users who are not the cause of the attack, we have opened up IPv6 queries seeing as the problem does not appear to be affecting that side of our network.

Our volunteers will continue to watch the situation and will restore IPv4 service as soon as we can do so without adding to the attack. We currently have three volunteers watching this.

Alternatively, if you are in Brazil and you are a residential user or a hobbyist, you can reach out to our support center over email with your IPv4 address and we will whitelist you.

Name Server Changes

Due to an ongoing DNS attack, we are currently dropping request involving the country of Brazil on both name servers. Users in those regions will not be able to make use of our name servers until after we see the attack ease up a bit.

Going to be moving things into a new network range!

Our request for a /44 from the LIR that we use for our IPv6 allocations was approved, meaning that we are going to spending the next week off and on working on moving all of our gear into our new ranges across both of our physical servers. Some services may go down during this time, but we will be doing our best to be quick with this.

The goal is to get all our gear into our ranges and to be able to let go of the data center provided /48 going forward. Currently the majority of the new /44 is routed to our primary server with the bottom most /46 being routed to our secondary. We also got control of our PTR zones, so that will also be setup soon.
