Level 3 Fiber Cut in Chicago

FYI -- We lost a 1gig metro link this morning on Level3 (PHY is up, but fails to pass traffic), and it turns out that Level 3 had a major fiber cut in the Chicago area that took down 85-WDM waves. No ETA has been provided as of this afternoon. David.

My workplace also lost a long-haul circuit this morning (at 07:41 PDT), via XO, who states that the issue is a fibre cut between St. Louis and Chicago, or more specifically a "severely damaged fibre duct", and currently has a ticket open with Level 3 on the matter. Definitely related. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
