We have seen the same thing at 10:10am Eastern time and now at 11:45am. In fact, it's ongoing but we've not received any official explanation. And as always, www.noc.uu.net reports 'all is well'. Kevin

Anyone else seeing routing instability through UUNET or have any more details? I saw a significant drop in my inbound and outbound traffic to them around 10:00AM EDT. UUNET has a prompt on their phone menus about network instability, but didn't elaborate. Their NOC doesn't have any more details as of yet that they're passing along.

I got similiar when I called in. I also saw my circuit to them drop at 7:07:42 PDT and a series of up/downs until 7:13 PDT (along with a few BGP resets). NOC claims that that's due to backbone routing issues, which I had a hard time believing (at least the up/downs). I escalated it and got a more knowledgable NOCite who re-iterated the instability issues and said he'd get back to me with more info.
