network.

We have seen it as well.
In our cases it is all TCP DNS traffic as well.

Re: small automatic transfer switches

[Velocity Lists]

If you are not looking for "monitoring" of it.
A DPDT 120v 10amp Relay with three power cords cut and attached will make
an ATS for under $30.

PlayStation Network blocking an IP

[Velocity Lists]

Can someone form Sony's Playstation network give me call or contact me
offlist.

One of our apartment complexes has been reporting errors of PS4s not
working for a few days then they start working again.

PSN Support is telling the users to call us.
We have diagnosed it and PSN is blocking the IP of the complex and it has
nothing to do with us.
