UPDATE: 11-11-07 01:36 PDT Our upstream has resolved their routing issue by replacing a failed router processor card. We have turned up our interface and traffic is back to normal.
Tonight around 20:20 PDT we started seeing an issue with one of our network peers. Customers reported intermittent connectivity issues to our network. We contacted our peer and confirmed the issue and by 21:15 we determined the best course of action was to shut down our interface with them until the issue on their network was resolved. So for the time being one of our upstream connections is offline. This is not an issue really as we have more than enough bandwidth on our other connections to handle our full load and then some.
Our peer will notify us when they have corrected the issue on their network and we'll re-establish our connectivity with them at that time.
We'll update this post with more news as required.
