Anyone see any connectivity issues with Level-3 in the DC area? This issue is causing big latency problems that appeared to have taken out Bank of America's website.
I've got low latency TO 'Level3 Washington' - but I time out about three hops later. I'm coming from the Sprintlink. On Jan 29, 2010, at 2:22 PM, John Palmer (NANOG Acct) wrote:

Looks like an internal problem to BoA. The redirect works, and I get an immediate reply. The https redirect page appears boinked. Even with a -k curl took over 30 seconds to get the page, and the browser would have timed out. robert@Robert ~ $ curl -i -G www.bankofamerica.com HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Server: Sun-ONE-Web-Server/6.1 Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2010 19:25:08 GMT Content-length: 122 Content-type: text/html Location: https://www.bankofamerica.com/index.jsp Connection: close <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Moved Permanently</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY><H1>Moved Permanently</H1> An error has occurred. </BODY></HTML> robert@Robert ~ $ curl -i -G www.bankofamerica.com HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Server: Sun-ONE-Web-Server/6.1 Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2010 19:25:28 GMT Content-length: 122 Content-type: text/html Location: https://www.bankofamerica.com/index.jsp Connection: close <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Moved Permanently</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY><H1>Moved Permanently</H1> An error has occurred. </BODY></HTML> robert@Robert ~ $ curl -i -G https://www.bankofamerica.com/index.jsp curl: (60) SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK.

Hi, Just noticed this article, maybe BoA is also a target ?: CIA, PayPal under bizarre SSL assault The "massive" flood of requests is made over the websites' SSL, or secure-sockets layer, port, causing them to consume more resources than normal connections, according to researchers at Shadowserver Foundation, a volunteer security collective. The torrent started about a week ago and appears to be caused by recent changes made to a botnet known as Pushdo <http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/02/29/botnet_spam_deluge/>. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/01/29/strange_ssl_web_attack/ http://www.shadowserver.org/wiki/pmwiki.php/Calendar/20100129 Maybe that has something to do with this ? Hope you have a nice weekend.
