Yes, I think it worked but likely that was on the previous gateway.
The system is 44.137.40.2 (89.18.172.156)
The route is:
44.0.0.1 via 169.228.34.84 dev tunl0 proto ampr-ripd onlink

This system has our own gateway 213.222.29.194 as its default tunnel route
but otherwise it is a standard ampr-ripd setup with 2 route tables.

Recently I saw a header in the DNS robot reply mails that the mail address has changes and the
update mails now have to be sent @gw.ampr.org. I changed that in my script, but then I noticed
that my system on the IPIP tunnel network cannot send mail there. Of course gw.ampr.org is 44.0.0.1
and there have been issues with reaching that from the IPIP gateway systems, but I thought those were
fixed.
I have changed my mail config to send the mail via my ISP smarthost and that works, but what is the
status on this? Is it supposed to be working, does it work for others?
It only affects my gateway on the IPIP tunnel network. From the BGP routed gateway and the radio-connected
systems here in the Netherlands there is no problem, and neither from normal internet addresses.
Rob
In general, all encapsulated packets sent to the amprgw router for
decapsulation and forwarding should have inner source addresses on the
44.0.0.0/8 network, since they are being originated by hosts on that
network.
The owners of the following gateways should contact me or consult
the error listing in the /private/pkterrors.txt file regarding
misconfiguration of their gateway routing rules which is leading to the
sending of packets to amprgw which have a non-44 inner source address.
These packets are being discarded by the gateway router, so they're not
being delivered anywhere. This could be caused by an erroneous default
route pointing at amprgw. Probably you shouldn't have one of those.
This isn't causing any harm, but it's not doing any good either.

Interesting... is it real traceroute traffic (to UDP port 33434 and higher)
or is it different?
I have had this rule (with TTL limit 16 and only for UDP 33434-33499) on our
gateway for quite some time and I do not see many hits on it.
Maybe the traffic is different. I do not observe increased input traffic.

It sure is. 185.35.60.0/22 was already in the blocklist here, I have seen
"research" traffic from the bottom half of that network as well.

For several hours now, amprgw has been seeing a storm of traceroutes from
hundreds of different source addresses. It looks like a botnet has been
activated to probe net 44 using short-TTL packets like traceroute.
In reaction to this, I've temporarily set the gateway to discard any
packet with a TTL of less than 30. (The TTL is decremented by one when
the packet is forwarded; normally, of course, only packets with a TTL
value of zero are discarded.)
This will not affect normal traffic, most of which has TTL values in
the 40 to 64 range, but will throw away the short TTL packets used
by traceroute.
If you have problems with some site suddenly timing out instead of
its normal reachability, let me know and I'll re-enable the normal TTL
processing. In that case, we'll have to find some other way to cope
with the storm of traceroutes.

Hello,I am having an issue with the routes script for the Mikrotik routers. I got through all the steps to get RIP working and routes began populating based of the guides here: http://wiki.ampr.org/wiki/Setting_up_a_gateway_on_MikroTik_Routers . Then I got the latest script from http://www.yo2loj.ro/ version 3.1, while ssh'd into the box I copied and pasted the script http://www.yo2loj.ro/hamprojects/ampr-gw-3.1.rsc into the terminal. I used my public IP address in the AmprPublicIp field and my AMPRnet IP assigned to the DMZ IP address 44.68.204.1 then ran the update_amprgw script. At first I thought it was working but not all of the routes appear to be populating. I am only seeing 55 interfaces, much less than the 400+ I would expect. Any advise on this issue?ThanksMark ScranoK2EXE
Sorry, that would be mine. I'm building a new gateway and was having some issues, I'll disable that host asap.

Rob,
It appears the SYN Flood are actually coming from AMPPRNet, not the
Interent:
2017-06-27 13:16:16.705 3600.001 TCP 44.136.24.62:52055 ->

2017-06-27 13:18:41.842 3600.004 TCP 44.136.24.62:51655 ->

44.136.24.62:51655 28 37152 1
After closing tcp/53, this is the only host causing hits on my SYN Flood
filter.

I sometimes see mis-detections of floods on TCP port 53 too. The resolver
has to open a separate connection for each request once it has to use TCP mode.
Due to the increased use of DNSSEC this happens more often than in the past.
Rob
> I'll be closing TCP/53 to the Internet - NOW.
You need to close UDP/53 as well! It is widely abused for DDoS amplification,
you really should not offer DNS service on internet unless you have modern software
to do rate limiting etc.
Look at the poor souls who make a change to their MikroTik router (usually configuring
it for PPPoE according to the directions they find on Youtube instead of according to
the manual) and mistakenly open their DNS resolver on internet... they end up
being abused as DDoS amplifier/reflector all the time.
We run a slave DNS server for AMPRnet as well, but: only on the 44 network.
