I know a lot of you are out of the office right now, but does anybody have
any info on what happened with L3 this morning? They went into a 5 hour
maintenance window with expected downtime of about 30 minutes while they
upgraded something like *40* of their "core routers" (their words), but
also did this during some fiber work and completely cut off several of
their east coast peers for the entirety of the 5 hour window.
If anybody has any more info on this, on a NOC contact for them on the East
Coast for future issues, you can hit me off off-list if you don't feel
comfortable replying with that info here.
Thanks, and I hope hope you guys are enjoying Orlando.
We're a Level3 customer in Orlando. Our BGP sessions stayed up, but the
number of routes received from Level3 fell to only a few tens of thousands
at about 4:10am, and gradually returned to normal numbers by about 4:35am.
