[rssac-caucus] Best Practices for the Distribution of Anycast Instances of the Root Name Service WP Conclusion
by kranjbar March 20, 2018

March 20, 2018

Dear RSSAC Caucus, Please find attached outcome document of ‘Best Practices for the Distribution of Anycast Instances of the Root Name Service’ work party. As it was mentioned in the caucus updates, the work party did not conclude with finishing all of it’s tasks but had many deep discussions about the questions raised in the work plan. This document summarises all of those discussions and conclusions and, at any point in time, if RSSAC or RSSAC Caucus feels one of the questions should be explored in more detail, we always have the option of booting up a new work party around that single issue and achieve more fine grained results. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or questions. All the best, Kaveh.

[rssac-caucus] FOR REVIEW: RSSAC FAQ
by Andrew Mcconachie March 6, 2018

March 6, 2018

Dear RSSAC Caucus Members, On behalf of the RSSAC please find the RSSAC FAQ attached for your review. Please provide comments/edits to the list or in the document by February 23rd, 2018. The purpose of this document, like any FAQ, is to answer questions that are frequently asked of the RSSAC. Most of the questions in this FAQ originate from audience members in the RSSAC’s tutorial sessions on the DNS Root Server System held at ICANN meetings. They have been collected here along with other common questions the RSSAC receives, and answers have been provided by RSSAC members. Once the review is finished this document will become a web page hosted somewhere in the RSSAC section of the ICANN website. <https://www.icann.org/groups/rssac> It will not be published as an RSSAC document with a number. And because it will be published as HTML we’ll use links instead of footnotes for references. These don’t work in the PDF, so you’ll have to view the MS Word document if you want to see the URLs. Thanks, Andrew

[rssac-caucus] Including the ASN advice in the anonymizing document
by Paul Hoffman Feb. 23, 2018

Feb. 23, 2018

Greetings again. This thread is based on a request to remove the discussion publishing ASNs with anonymized data. The text put in the document based on a request from Geoff Huston. John Bond has requested that it be removed. The current text says: ===== 4 Saving Additional Information When Anonymizing In order to help researchers looking at anonymized data, the process of anonymization can preserve some information relating to the originating Autonomous System (AS) number of the querier. A side effect of anonymization is that it destroys any possibility of establishing the origin AS of the querier. If the origin AS is sufficiently general that it does not unnecessarily expose data that should have been anonymized, it is useful to also publish the AS numbers of the anonymized addresses. This can most easily be done with a table that maps the anonymized addresses to their original AS numbers. ===== Recommendation 3: Autonomous System (AS) numbers of original addresses should be made available with the anonymized data. It should be possible for an operator to publish a machine-readable table that maps the anonymized addresses to the AS of the original data. Such a table should have a timestamp for when the mapping was made due to AS values changing over time. ===== RSSAC Caucus: please weigh in. --Paul Hoffman
