Level 3 Issues Ultimatum
Restores connectivity to Cogent until Nov 9

After restoring connectivity to Cogent this afternoon, Level 3 has now
issued a press release (http://www.dslreports.com/shownews/68244) explaining
their side of the story
I hope everyone takes this opportunity to become multi-homed if you are
not already. In our case, we were already multi-homed, but all of our
IPs were allocated by Cogent simply because it was the cheapest place to
get them. During this mesh we learn that our IPs were in some cases
being null
Here in ohio we got nailed by this. Verizon, SBC, Time Warner, just to
name a few. I think Im going to get a backup DSL through Sprint since
they were not affected by this here in ohio.

For those that are not aware, Level-3 vilolated its inplace agreements, and
blocked all peering connections from Cogent communications yesterday (October
5th), and rumor has it that they are also nowblocking all Cogent assigned
IP ranges, so that routing diverse paths won't be effective.
Hi Tom
Do you have a url for this news?
Thanks

To set the record straight, no peering agreements were violated
between L3 and Cogent.
I heard otherwise, however I can't prove that.
Cogent on their own web site said that agreements were not violated:
Level 3 terminated its peering with Cogent
