Network and Terminal Room Information
IETF 70 Vancouver BC

	-=- Terminal Room -=-

The Terminal Room is located in the Marine Room on the 1st floor of  
the Westin Bayshore and is open 24 hours a day
beginning at 4pm on Sunday, December 2nd and ending at 12 noon on  
Friday, December 7th. A help desk is being provided
and will be manned from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM every day.  The room  
itself consists of approximately 80 seats
providing wired 10/100/1000 Ethernet access and 120v North American  
power ports.  There are also two duplex color
printers available. Please note that the only terminals are two  
Windows Laptops. It is simply a place to get power,
wired Internet access, color printers or help desk support.

When using the Ethernet connections in the Terminal Room, IPv4  
addressing is provided via DHCP. Please use
Dynamic Auto-configuration for IPv6.

	-=- Network Basics -=-

The IETF 70 network connects to the Internet via redundant 100Mb  
Ethernet links from Telus. The entire event is
addressed out of the 130.129.0.0/16 block for IPv4 and 2001:df8::/32  
for IPv6. Primary commodity IPv4 is provided by Telus,
global IPv6 and IPv4 connectivity to R&E networks is being provided  
via BCNet.

	-=- Wireless -=-

An 802.11 a/b/g wireless network is being provided liberally in the  
Westin Bayshore. The areas being
specifically covered are the meeting rooms and hallways in the  
conference area, the Marine Room and Tower Foyer,
as well as the Front Lobby, Currents and SeaWall Restraunts.

To use this network, associate with the beaconed SSID of "ietf" for  
802.11a/b/g and "ietf-a" for 802.11a.  IPv4
addressing is provided via DHCP.  IPv6 clients should use Dynamic  
Auto-configuration.

For those interested in more link-layer security, a WPA SSID with  
802.1x is available.  The SSIDs are "ietf.1x"
and "ietf-a.1x". Do not use WPA-PSK as that will not work.

To use 802.1x:
1. Associate to SSID: ietf.1x OR ietf-a.1x
2. Use PEAP/MSCHAPv2
3. Do Not Verify Server Cert and we won't verify yours :)
4. Username (case sensitive): ietf
5. Password (case sensitive): ietf

The proper operation of the wireless network requires the assistance  
of all users.  One of the most significant
issues with wireless performance in past IETF meetings has been  
wireless clients automatically, or accidentally
initiating "ad-hoc" networks that act as the official IETF wireless  
network, causing other users to associate with
false IETF wireless networks.  Therefore, please disable your  
client's ability to create an ad-hoc network and as
well as the ability to automatically join an ad-hoc network.  If you  
are using Windows XP or Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5 to
manage your wireless client, the instructions to disable creation of  
ad-hoc networks are listed below. If you are
using other systems, please do whatever your particular wireless  
client management system requires to turn off
ad-hoc networks.

	-- Instructions for Mac OS X
   Open System Preferences -> Network -> Airport -> Options and un- 
check the box for "Create Computer-to-
Computer networks".

	-- Instructions for Windows XP
   Open Properties -> wireless networks -> advanced and then select  
"access point (infrastructure) networks only"
and unselect "automatically connect to non-preferred networks".

	-=- Westin Bayshore Guest Rooms -=-

To preempt any potential problems with guest room access at the  
Westin Bayshore we have taken control of connectivity
to the guest rooms.  This will switch back to the normal hotel system  
around noon on Friday December 7th. If your room has a
wired connection, IPv4 and IPv6 will be delivered as in the meeting  
area.  If your Westin Bayshore room does not have
wired access (primarily in the Tower rooms) service is provided  
wirelessly via the "roomlinx" SSID.

	-=- Printing -=-

Two printers are located in the Terminal Room and are available to  
all IETF users. The printers themselves are
Xerox 8560DN which are Postscript capable and have the duplex option  
installed. The printers are accessible via
LPD, Bonjour, standard TCP/IP on port 9100. Printer host names are  
printer12.ietf70.org and printer13.ietf70.org.

	-=- Services -=-

The following network services are provided:
•	SMTP – smtp.ietf70.org
SMTP relay services are provided for users on the IETF network.
•	NTP - ntp.ietf70.org
Stratum 2 time service is provided via IPv4 and IPv6 unicast.

The above hostnames are configured with redunancy to the following  
hosts:
130.129.5.6 (IPv4) or 2001:df8:0:5::6/64 (IPv6)  - ntp1.ietf70.org
130.129.5.7 (IPv4) or 2001:df8:0:5::7/64 (IPv6)  - ntp2.ietf70.org

Additionally, full recursive DNS service is being provided from  
130.129.5.6 and 130.129.5.7. Our domain name
is ietf70.org.

	-=- Thanks -=-

The terminal room and IETF network are made possible by the generous  
contributions by a number of companies
and by the tireless efforts of our volunteer team. If you see any of  
these people in the halls, please be sure to thank
them for all their work!
