i have many tests going on, i didn't know it had been down for others, for me and the tests i had, it dropped yesterday, perhaps location really does matter and not just level3 ips, i do not use this for anything important. thank you On 3/8/2023 10:28 AM, Hunter Fuller via Outages wrote:
Additionally, configuring one DNS server is a bad idea. I’m not sure if 4.2.2.2 is anycasted, but 4.2.2.1 through 4.2.2.6 exist and all work, so if you are a Lumen customer and want to use their resolvers, it’d be prudent to configure any two of those.
In other words, I mean this as gently as possible, but one of six redundant servers going offline is not what I’d call an “outage.”

Speaking as a former Level 3 employee from way back. 4.2.2.2 is NOT a polling server. So if you're using it for that, you should stop. Second, while it is publicly available for DNS, it is first and foremost a server for Level 3 customers. What they do with it and how available it is outside the network is not guaranteed. YMMV.
