Network issue in Dublin 17 site.

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

Engineers are onsite investigating the cause and extent.

Update: 1745: There appears to have been a major failure of the primary carrier in Dublin 17, and the failover to secondary routes is incomplete (currently some INEX peered routes appear to be working ok).

Update: 1815: Engineers are continuing to work on the issue. It appears there is an issue with routing to the Dublin 17 AS via Smart Telecom, and issues with the other carriers filtering the routes out. Smart are reporting a major problem on the T50 fiber ring, which is also impacting their ability to resolve this issue. Many INEX peered routes are working fine, and are unaffected by the higher level filters in place. We continue to work to resolve this serious issue and will post regular updates.

Update: 1845: All services have been restored. A full RFO and report will be provided to all effected customers. We apologise for any impact this incident may have caused.
