There are four routes into Atlanta, I believe. Getting to Atlanta wasn't a problem. Between the Atlanta hub and the customers was the problem. Can't give every customer two connections for the price of one =/ Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 "When you have eliminated the impossible, that which remains, however improbable, must be the truth." --- Sir Arthur Conan Doyle On Tue, Oct 20, 2009 at 1:00 PM, Jeremy Chadwick <outages@jdc.parodius.com>wrote:

Looks like it's all back up as of about 30 mins ago.
Apparently either a core switch or router failed, which took down much of their network in Atlanta, as well as Memphis and Nashville.
Level 3 has a single router or switch handling packets at a major POP? I doubt this, but the outage is confirmation something bad happened.
That said: where's the redundancy, and why didn't it kick in?
