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. jms
It was really bad this morning. I had problems with Bellsouth, AT&T and Qwest's connection to UUNET. Does anyone know if there is a web site or newsgroup I can get alerts and updates about what is going on with UUNET ? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Streiner, Justin" <streiner@stargate.net> To: <nanog@merit.edu> Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 11:01 AM Subject: UUNET instability?

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. - mz
And us as well.. it's coming back up quickly.. and I am seeing routes restored. I hate it when this happens right after everyone walks out the door for lunch. Can't we schedule our unscheduled outages better? Hopefully this is not related to the small explosion that just occured in NYC. It may be an industrial accident, it was at a tech school (auto/etc..) or it may not be. On Thu, 25 Apr 2002, German Martinez wrote:

Generally something doesn't get "Slashdotted" unless it is fully of poorly written dynamic code which should never have been put in production in the first place, such as PHP doing 20 mysql queries per page view or something else equally stupid and linux kiddie. A BOFH quote generator, on the other hand, is very very simple. It boggles the mind to imagine a server so weak or code so bad that it couldn't handle a couple hundred connections from NANOG readers. If that is the case, I would strongly suggest you reevaluate the language or method in which it was written. -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras PGP Key ID: 0x138EA177 (67 29 D7 BC E8 18 3E DA B2 46 B3 D8 14 36 FE B6)

That's unusual. A train derailment usually effects more than one provider, and normally does not cause network-wide BGP resets.
I'd heard something about IS-IS instability, and it doesn't surprise me. On big networks, IGP stability is super-important, be it IS-IS, EIGRP, or OSPF. jms
