I live in that area, and its far enough from 111 8th to not cause any serious problems, and there's no other telco or network facilities around there, AFAIK. Most of the fiber, etc, is run along 16th street or up/down 9th ave. Thanks, Matt -- Matthew J.

Here is Memphis we are seeing the same thing. Twice this morning we have dropped and our BGP is freaking out. -----Original Message----- From: Streiner, Justin [mailto:streiner@stargate.net] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 10:01 AM To: nanog(a)merit.edu Subject: UUNET instability? 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. jms

We have seen the same thing at 10:10am Eastern time and now at 11:45am. In fact, it's ongoing but we've not received any official explanation. And as always, www.noc.uu.net reports 'all is well'.

incorrect NXDOMAIN response from DNS server
by Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino 25 Apr '02

25 Apr '02

the issue was originally raised on 6bone(a)isi.edu. there are name server implementations (probably load balancing product) that responds with NXDOMAIN, when it should respond with NOERROR with empty reply. one example is news.bbc.co.uk. this symptom not only confuse IPv6-ready client resolvers, but also has bad effect against negative caching and email delivery (if MX is responded with NODOMAIN). do you know: - name of particular implementation which have/had this bug? - other examples of nameservers that behave like this? (windowsupdate.microsoft.com behaved like this in Feb 2002, but they are already fixed) - how can we get people to fix it?

I tried to get a couple of messages to the list earlier, but I guess the problems stop it. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2002 10:07:37 -0400 (EDT) From: James S. Smith <jssmith(a)jamesstewartsmith.com> To: nanog(a)merit.edu Subject: Problems with UUNet backbone Maybe this is unrelated, but myself and some other collegues I've contact by phone just in the past few minutes have noticed some connectivity problems with the Worldcom backbone. Particularly, some routers on 152.63.131.0 seem to be down. The result is I can't get to the root name servers. I've tried tracerouting to all 13 root name server and I can only get to 3. The traceroutes all die in the block I mentioned about. Anybody else noticing this? Can anybody responsible for the IP block confirm?
