Did Any2 LAX barf last night between about 1am and 8am Pacific time?
More like 00:00-7:45 (Pacific time).
Anyone know what broke, and why the IX was dead for nearly 8 hours?
This is our second recent issue with "an Any2 IX", having dealt with an
IX partition event at Any2 Denver just a few weeks ago.
What I saw was a lot of unreachable nexthops (I'm in LA2) on routes
advertised through the route servers. Most of my direct BGP sessions
were down, but a handful were still working including the route servers.
For example, I was getting routes for AS29791 from the route servers,
but nexthop 206.72.211.106 was dead to me. Not to pick on Internap other
than a mutual customer called me directly at 1am and wanted to know why
things were down.
I killed the route server sessions and went back to sleep.
Feels like LA1 and LA2 got split, but however the route servers
interconnect still worked, which was problematic.
