Anyone have an estimate as to when these long announcements began? Seems like the first reports appeared just before noon, UTC-05. We noticed a significant dip in Internet traffic to AS11579 for a few minutes last night (19:00 UTC-05) which we've been trying to hunt down the cause of. At first glance, the two events seem unrelated. Anyone else see anything similar?

Yep we saw the same, every customer with old IOS had their sessions die to us at the same time... That always makes for an interesting time when watching the NMS system..
Is there a reason you don't use something like "bgp maxas-limit NN" on
your transit sessions?
We saw this too, but it stopped at our transit routers. There was actually another a few days ago.
