Anyone else seeing routing instability through UUNET or have any more
details? I saw a significant drop in my inbound and outbound traffic to
them around 10:00AM EDT. UUNET has a prompt on their phone menus about
network instability, but didn't elaborate. Their NOC doesn't have any
more details as of yet that they're passing along.
It was really bad this morning. I had problems with Bellsouth, AT&T and
Qwest's connection to UUNET.
Does anyone know if there is a web site or newsgroup I can get alerts and
updates about what is going on with UUNET ?
Our Manhattan, KS POP had some trouble around 9:00am CST
ago but I can't find any evidence. BGP sessions haven't
been touched, no downed interfaces, etc... We have one
T1 to UUNet at that location.

I got similiar when I called in. I also saw my circuit to them drop at
7:07:42 PDT and a series of up/downs until 7:13 PDT (along with a few BGP
resets). NOC claims that that's due to backbone routing issues, which I had
a hard time believing (at least the up/downs). I escalated it and got a
more knowledgable NOCite who re-iterated the instability issues and said
he'd get back to me with more info.
There's www.noc.uu.net, but unless the problem is long lasting or severe
enough that it can't be swept under the rug, they don't seem to admit to
anything on that page.
Justin,
We saw a big traffic drop from them exactly at the same time that you saw.
We are contacting them to get more details. In fact, our BGP session with
them reseted.

Hello;
For some reason they have been deagregating
since Wednesday morning - double the number of prefixes in a
little less announced address space.
UUNET confirmed that they had a network-wide outage (ISIS related) around
that time which caused some bgp sessions to reset. The issue seems to be
resolved at this time. They are still isolating the problem.
And us as well.. it's coming back up quickly..
and I am seeing routes restored. I hate it when
this happens right after everyone walks out the
door for lunch. Can't we schedule our unscheduled
outages better?
Hopefully this is not related to the small explosion that
just occured in NYC. It may be an industrial accident,
it was at a tech school (auto/etc..) or it may not be.

19th st and 6th avenue, they teach welding among other things so They're
likely to have lots of bottled volatile gases around.
I'd heard something about IS-IS instability, and it doesn't surprise me.
On big networks, IGP stability is super-important, be it IS-IS, EIGRP, or
OSPF.
