[as112-ops] AS112 node in Canberra, Australia

[Cody Appleby]

Hi Everyone,

I'm also announcing AS112 (via 45482) from our Peering Infrastructure
We're seeing around 2000+ queries per second, Unfortunately there is no way to give anyone 'Public' stats access
due to the closed nature of the IX network infrastructure.

It's not surprising that we don't get many local queries (both Verisign and ICANN have local nodes); but I'm surprised that our server is getting 50-100+ queries a second from across the pacific.  Not sure if it's because of bad AS112 coverage there or just because of lack of local peering in Asia.
