The really question is: DNS misconfig or multicast whoopsie?
Long story short, a contractor replacing copper wire with fiber apparently triggered a cascading internal DDOS fault in a set of Cisco routers manufactured between 20-25 years ago.
cbs has some more technical details about halfway through this, most detail i’ve seen so far. they seem to be ahead of everyone on reporting www.cbsnews.com/news/faa-gro...

All of this is of course conjecture based on one account I read, but it's the one that to me seemed the most believable. I've actually dealt with a multicast issue on a new switch, the effects are as described.

Skvělý 😂
A pobavily mě pokusy o multicast.

The amount of traffic they quoted is quite low actually, but older hardware could struggle. A routing error or misconfigured setup can quickly duplicate and amplify traffic.

A small home network can produce infinite packets per second if you create a loop. Multicast is usually the culprit.

The explanation I heard was that when they installed a new switch at an FAA facility, it suddenly flooded the network with multicast traffic. An easy thing to do if you're using a managed switch and haven't configured the ports properly. But God only knows if that's the actual reason.

A potential use of a @wolfssl.com based microbe cipher kit would be Jambalaya, which I envisioned as a distributed computing kit starting with a dns service buiilt on consistent hash rings for host queries, and picking up status of live hosts from multicast udp.

Happy New Release for Too Cold for Comfort by @nishajtwrites a romance set during a polar bear safai. Also check out We Three Queens by @soniapalleck for a hopeful story with December vibes, and This Jury is Guilty by Laurie Blake for a multicast thriller.

I had my agent do an in-browser chat with support yesterday to discuss a weird mDNS/wifi problem where multicast mDNS was being sent to the network interface but never making it to the radio, but only for the 6GHz band (2 and 5 worked fine); anyway, was funny watching MY ROBOT talk to THEIR HUMAN.

yes i wish i wasn't

1. NetworkManager auf dem Pi fragt beim Start von eth0 und danach mit exponentiellem Backoff per Router Solicitation an ff02::2 nach Routern (RFC 4861)

2. Der Socket von NetworkManager hat Multicast-Loopback an (Kernel-Vorgabe, Option aus RFC 3493), deshalb hört radvd auf dem Pi die Anfrage selbst

ugh i might have to run both bird AND frr (need to do PIM but bird doesn't do anything multicast ;/// and also i don't want to deal with frr for everything, so i guess bird will do ospf and bgp and frr will do pim)

Some campus Wi-Fi drops multicast between clients, so mDNS never finds the laptop sitting next to you. That's why paired devices can also connect by plain address. An address alone is never trusted: the device still has to present the key it was paired with.

Magari la rete locale: tutta sullo stesso router per il traffico di richieste e risposte e con una router così così.

Ma un sistema distribuito su internet?

Se fosse così basterebbe poco a tirare giù tutto internet con qualche broadcast o multicast.

Invece no.

È fatto male il sistema che usano.
