I'm not a customer of Telehouse, so I don't receive their customer notification bulletins directly. I rely on other peopel to pass along the information. Several folks have forwarded Telehouse updates to me, the ConEd generator was refueled yesterday and has been running since then. Work continues to fix the original generator. My error was due to my misunderstanding a note from Abovenet. Abovenet is just referring to their own equipment housed in Telehouse, which is still down. Once again the rest of 25 Broadway came back up yesterday. http://west-boot.mfnx.net/traffic/issues.txt
What is interesting to note is the varying degrees of successfulness people are having in getting below Canal St. I've talked to many who couldn't even walk down there; however, on Friday, myself and a collegue, in a marked chevy suburban with commercial plates and a blinking amber light were simply flagged through the barricades; we drove all the way down mulberry and parked on whitehall st., about one block south of the 'bull' (where broadway and whitehall split, which is essentially where 25 bway is). We were then escorted by two armed national guardsmen to the building, which is only about 4 blocks from 'ground zero'. On 16 Sep 2001, Sean Donelan wrote:

Weird, their page says: "The Telehouse on 25 Broadway is back up. We are experiencing issues with one of our routers there as a result of the power outage. At this time, NYPD is not allowing access to the facility." Oddly enough, I know of at least two people that got in today. Apparently Telehouse can get you in if you arrange it with them beforehand.

I don't have specifics about access, as I am not working that side of the problem. One of our three routers at Telehouse did not come back when power was restored. We had a Telehouse tech confirm that it had blinky lights (aka power), and had them power cycle it again with no effect. Due to the access limitations we're trying to make sure when we get someone in there that they have a reasonable set of spair parts with them so they don't have to turn around and go back. Hopefully the box will be back up and running this morning. The best information I have is that access is spotty, due to confusion in the NYPD and national guard. Some people seem to be able to 'walk right in', other people can't get close. *shrug* -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell@ufp.org Systems Engineer - Internetworking Engineer - CCIE 3440 Read TMBG List - tmbg-list-request@tmbg.org, www.tmbg.org

We were able to get downtown fine yesterday. I think it depends on where you cross the security line, as many of the military guarding the perimeter aren't really sure who is allowed in and who isn't. There has been a lot of people trying to get down over the weekend, including some folks just wanting to see the site. There has been a lot of people "pulling strings" to get down, including some NYPD that are flashing badges just to look around. I ended up helping some friends set some stuff up for a temporary military office. We had armed soldiers nearby at all times. Matt - -- Matthew S.
