Re: NET99 sabotages IGC's routes

For some reason (we strongly suspect a configuration error at NET99) our traffic failed to reroute over our MCI T1 for several hours. (They have a habit of broadcasting static routes to route around outages, thus completely screwing their multi-homed customers.)

I can confirm that this isn't the first time that this has happened. Hopefully reports such as this will make ISPs aware that static routes aren't a good solution for dual homed customers. I also recommend bringing as much as possible of your routing announcements in-house (ie, run BGP).
