My non-scientific measurements (i.e. pings to well known european
sites) show an increase in packet loss to about 6%, the 10 day
average previously was less than 1%.
Neither ns.ebone.net nor auth1.ebone.net are answering queries.
BGP data still looks normal
KPNQwest data http://bgp.potaroo.net/as286/
So far I don't see much change in traffic levels at LINX

AMS-IX graphs seem to have a glitch, or one heck of a DDOS.

BROADCAST MESSAGE
To all our customers despite the Efforts of the 40 people at Ebone NOC
these last few months to keep the network up and running our efforts have
been in vain, as finally the banks and other parties concerned have
stopped the proposed sale of Ebone happening.As a result of this we have
now been ordered by the curators to shut down the Network.this will happen
today 2nd July 1, 2002 at 11:00AM CET.
I wish to thank our entire customers for their support over these last
few months and only wish that things could have turned out differently. If
you need any further information regarding this please feel free to
contact me on the following number +32 486 747140 or email address.

I doubt the dip in the graph, which looks to me like about 1G missing
between 12:00-19:00 was just from that 3 second power outage, which
happened after 2pm I think. Perhaps it was the result of the bogus
routes being advertised by AS1200?
Makes you wonder, where did 25200Gb of traffic disappear to?

Might have been a 3 sec outage but I can tell you that AS3333 (RIPE) was
offline from where I stand and all the looking glasses and route servers I
checked for approx 15 mins.. Most routes had 3-5 flaps for AS3333 entries.
So I'm not surprised that there was a dip after this for traffic via AMS-IX
(it being RIPE or any other network via AMS-IX)

It was interesting that a number of carriers withdrew prefixes after Ebone was
shut down.. I assume this was an effort to reroute traffic off congested links..
