At around 1345 Central it was brought to my attention that we had lost access to a number of websites out on the 'net... Two big-name examples are Oracle, which has our development team screaming for my blood. The other that's come to light as well is, of course, Yahoo... which means the rest of the userbase hates me. Traceroutes like the two below for Oracle generally die after one of Sprint's routers or its peer with Level3. I've already opened a case with SprintLink's broadband group and the tech I've spoken to said that there have been an influx of calls about routing/website availability problems, but nothing had been identified inside Sprint yet. Just curious if anybody else is seeing this sort of action. -------- jolsen@mcp [/export/home/jolsen] $ traceroute www.oracle.com traceroute: Warning: Multiple interfaces found; using 10.2.2.230 @ ce0 traceroute to www.oracle.com (141.146.8.66), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 core2-vlan1.obt.devry.edu (10.2.2.1) 0.407 ms 0.278 ms 0.265 ms 2 obtfw-virtual.obt.devry.edu (10.2.1.10) 1.413 ms 2.380 ms 2.400 ms 3 * * 205.240.70.2 (205.240.70.2) 5.209 ms 4 * * sl-gw32-chi-6-0-ts3.sprintlink.net (144.232.205.237) 10.738 ms 5 * sl-bb21-chi-4-2.sprintlink.net (144.232.26.33) 14.616 ms 32.739 ms 6 sl-bb20-chi-14-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.26.1) 16.901 ms 33.400 ms 27.028 ms 7 sl-st20-chi-12-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.8.219) 42.269 ms 6.190 ms 3.835 ms 8 * 209.0.225.21 (209.0.225.21) 9.971 ms 148.152 ms 9 * * * 10 * * * 11 * * * 12 * * * -- and -- root@opnvw1p [/usr/local/sbin] # ./tcptraceroute www.oracle.com 80 Selected device ge0, address 10.2.2.4 for outgoing packets Tracing the path to www.oracle.com (141.146.8.66) on TCP port 80 (http), 30 hops max 1 10.2.2.1 (10.2.2.1) 0.289 ms 0.224 ms 0.208 ms 2 10.2.1.10 (10.2.1.10) 1.547 ms 1.502 ms 1.218 ms 3 205.240.70.2 (205.240.70.2) 2.555 ms 5.551 ms 6.408 ms 4 sl-gw32-chi-6-0-ts3.sprintlink.net (144.232.205.237) 4.120 ms 8.185 ms 6.024 ms 5 sl-bb21-chi-4-2.sprintlink.net (144.232.26.33) 5.470 ms 3.884 ms 6.889 ms 6 sl-bb20-chi-14-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.26.1) 8.851 ms 7.624 ms 5.671 ms 7 sl-st20-chi-12-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.8.219) 7.913 ms 7.283 ms 7.427 ms 8 209.0.225.21 (209.0.225.21) 4.730 ms 6.033 ms 7.925 ms 9 * * * 10 * * * 11 * * *
