This afternoon, the BGP (border gateway protocol) session with Qwest
(for qwest.net) went down, according to the logs, 4 times.
This has caused some routing issues out on the Internet while things
reconverge and start using the MCI/UUNET connection.
>From looking at the different 'looking glass' or 'route view' systems,
these issues should abate very soon. The longest hold timer I found
was 22 minutes - and this was almost 10 minutes ago.
Sites that look to be down are Google, parts of CNN, and some of the
interior Apple websites - these sites are handled by external parties
for much of their content delivery and it is that which is causing us
grief right now.
The # of sites that seem to be down is random and changing with more
and more sites coming back online, the sites I listed above were the
first ones reported to me to investigate.
Support can be reached Monday thru Friday from 8:00am until 8:00pm,
Saturdays from 11:00am until 4:00pm via phone at 612-337-6340, or via
