Quad9’s two London locations are fine. Is there some reason you’re trying to use Google for DNS? That seems like a “doctor it hurts when I do _this_” kinda thing. -Bill

Google 8.8.8.8 (next hop after 172.253.71.199) dropped out of pings from my AS 16:28:21-16:28:53 17:42:06-17:43:13 which is very unusual. 1.1.1.1 and other internet destinations were fine at the time so sounds like a google problem, we peer directly with AS15169 at telehouse west I believe.
From BT, 8.8.8.8 appears behind 172.253.65.211, and no loss at all (well 1 lost packet at 12:09:06 GMT)
No DNS lookup issues, but even if 8.8.8.8 was being used and became unreachable, dns would fail over to at alternate one. ________________________________ From: Outages [outages-bounces@outages.org] on behalf of Bill Woodcock via Outages [outages@outages.org] Sent: 17 March 2021 17:59 To: Jason Cc: outages@outages.org Subject: Re: [outages] DNS resolution in Europe On Mar 17, 2021, at 6:47 PM, Jason via Outages <outages@outages.org<mailto:outages@outages.org>> wrote: We are getting alerted that URLs are not reachable from London, UK.

Not seeing any issues from Virgin Media Business in the UK, and also not seeing any issues from XS4ALL Internet B.V. in the Netherlands at least. Kind regards, Tom On Wed, 17 Mar 2021 at 18:49, Jason via Outages <outages@outages.org> wrote:

I know Google is having an outage on their cloud networking platform. Looks like it affected lots of other google services. https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/cloud-networking/21006 Haven't heard of others though but I'm sure there might be some relation.

Yet another reminder to both people who make these posts and those who respond to them that this list is not for diagnostics, discussion, surveys, etc. There is a discussion list for that type of post.
