Saw this today. Customer's interface was a vertical line straight to their 200Mb/s rate limit. Had their Equipment wheezing. Traffic coming from 38.29.169.65 and 38.29.169.75, Appear to be Akamai devices inside AS174 (Cogent, Who is one of my transit providers). TCP/80. Customers NOC is looking into if the traffic was legitimate or not. Being that I came from Akamai, I like to think that it is. Ratelimited to 50Mb/s at customer request. Even at my core, I've got 200Mb/s coming in on the flow, And I'm dumping all but 50Mb/s of it. It's performing like UDP.

Most if not all CDNs have some terrible misbehavior (MS, Akamai, Limelight) where they send excessive amounts of traffic for the receiving connection size without ever backing off. I can never get the ISPs experiencing the issues to collect information at the same time the CDNs are willing to look into it. Could be something else, though. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ---------------------------------------- From: "Kyle Farmer via Outages" <outages@outages.org> To: Outages@outages.org Sent: Friday, February 3, 2017 11:29:41 AM Subject: [outages] load Anyone else getting hammered with akamaitechnologies.com ? _______________________________________________ Outages mailing list Outages@outages.org https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/outages
