The current line is Level3 is currently having an issue where they have certain code versions of a certain router vendor deployed. They haven't said anything yet, so it's still kind of sketchy. -----Original Message----- From: Peter Pauly [mailto:ppauly@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, November 07, 2011 10:04 AM To: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Time Warner Telecom problems Gizmodo is reporting problems at Time Warner Telecom .... we're suffering from it too and calls to the NOC have not been answered so far... does anyone have any further information? http://gizmodo.com/5857010/massive-time-warner-outage-hits-the-us

I believe you are referring to Time Warner Cable. There is no such thing as Time Warner Telecom anymore. -----Original Message----- From: Peter Pauly [mailto:ppauly@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, November 07, 2011 8:04 AM To: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Time Warner Telecom problems Gizmodo is reporting problems at Time Warner Telecom .... we're suffering from it too and calls to the NOC have not been answered so far... does anyone have any further information? http://gizmodo.com/5857010/massive-time-warner-outage-hits-the-us ------------- The content contained in this electronic message is not intended to constitute formation of a contract binding tw telecom. tw telecom will be contractually bound only upon execution, by an authorized officer, of a contract including agreed terms and conditions or by express application of its tariffs.

I noticed just a little while ago that we're having a lot of DNS fail. Initial findings were that several of the root-servers we were trying to reach via our TWTelecom link were unreachable after 2 hops into TWT. 4 64-128-130-233.static.twtelecom.NET (64.128.130.233) 2.399 ms 2.298 ms 2.338 ms 5 mia2-pr1-xe-1-3-0-0.us.twtelecom.net (66.192.253.18) 11.571 ms 11.552 ms 9.467 ms 6 * * * 7 * * * 8 * * * For instance, a.root-servers.net is pingable from a rackspace server, but not from our network (unless I shut off TWT, at which point it is, but it's apparently not the same a.root-servers.net instance rackspace sees). I assume this is one of the root-servers being anycast. Shutting off our BGP with TWT didn't appear to help (though the root-servers became reachable)...so I assume there's more going on than just TWT routing fail. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis, MCP :) | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________

Actually, it looks to me like they mean "Time Warner", because that's what they said. The company once known as "Time Warner Telecom" has always been a different entity, and hasn't been known as that in some time, now being called "twtelecom." Much of that company is what was once known as inc.net, a Milwaukee area provider of the '90's. Time Warner Cable appears to have experienced an implosion this morning, being out of service for about 11 minutes. During that time, packets originating here in Milwaukee quickly died in Chicago; 1 76.46.192.1 8.320 ms 9.900 ms 7.974 ms 2 24.160.230.32 7.967 ms 5.975 ms 8.479 ms 3 24.160.229.132 8.471 ms 7.969 ms 10.991 ms 4 24.160.229.193 9.972 ms 9.973 ms 24.160.229.197 9.985 ms 5 * * * 6 * * * while packets destined for RR all seemed to be headed out to SJC, from what I can tell. ...
