[Henk.Steenman@ams-ix.net: NOTIFICATION: KPNQWEST disconnection]
FYI. ----- Forwarded message from Henk Steenman <Henk.Steenman@ams-ix.net> ----- Subject: NOTIFICATION: KPNQWEST disconnection From: Henk Steenman <Henk.Steenman@ams-ix.net> To: AMS-IX Discussion list for technical issues <tech-l@ams-ix.net>, GRX Tech mailing list <grxtech@ams-ix.net> Date: Wed, 26 Jun 2002 10:43:42 +0200 This is to inform you that KPNQWEST has been unable to further fulfill its financial obligations towards AMS-IX, despite their repeated promises to do so over the last couple of days. We have therefore decided that the KPNQWEST ports will be disabled (both on the Internet and the GRX VLANs) at 12.00AM CET today. To allow some further time for rearranging traffic, we will allow a single KPNQWEST port to remain in use for a few more days, i.e. until July 1st. This one remaining port will be: switch 4 port 6/5 IP 193.148.15.140 (Internet VLAN) In order to avoid large amounts of broadcast traffic created by ARP requests, we request all parties currently peering with KPNQWEST to shut down their peering sessions with KPNQWEST with other IP addresses than the above mentioned one.

Yeah old news, The AMS-IX announced today that both ports had been re-enabled. I hope that means AMS-IX was paid. Regards, Neil.

Nah, another last-minute 2-week stay of execution most likely. Kill it and be done with already. The only ones making money out of KPNQ are the lawyers/consultants. Chris

So who felt sorry for them, and "sponsored" their ports? ;-) Simon -- Simon Lockhart | Tel: +44 (0)1737 839676 Internet Engineering Manager | Fax: +44 (0)1737 839516 BBC Internet Services | Email: Simon.Lockhart@bbc.co.uk Kingswood Warren,Tadworth,Surrey,UK | URL: http://support.bbc.co.uk/
