Tonight during our scheduled maintenance window we will be making some changes to the BGP config on our border routers. In order to complete these config changes we will need to reset the BGP peer sessions. As each session is reset our other peers will handle the traffic.
We will also be implementing a BGP trigger router that will give us more control over traffic in order to mitigate of DoS attacks. While this will not be service affecting it is an important milestone in our efforts to build the most secure network possible.
The maintenance will occur between 11:00 pm and 1:00 am
