IDNet outage?

[jameshurrell]

All three of my IDNet lines had a brief outage this morning just before 10am... BQM graphs show this quite neatly... No loss of PPP though on any of the lines....

Anyone else?

[Steve]

I don't recall any outage, router showing no connection loss but TBB ping monitor shows a drop just after 10.00am

[Bill]

Yeah, me too, and the break on IPv6 lasted quite a bit longer than that on IPv4.

Interestingly, a tbb speedtest using IPv6 started giving sensible answers afterwards, I suspect something got tweaked

I wouldn't have noticed it but for the BQM graph and the fact that a VPN I have running dropped out... think it was pretty brief.

I had some sites that wouldn't connect for 5 minutes or so, that prompted me to look at the BQM.

Just before 10am? If so I had the same problem here.

Agreed Bill first time I've ever seen a sensible result on the TBB IPv6 speedtest

Yeah, about 09:50 from the router log.

(That's when it shows me as logging to it, there weren't any other indications)

It would be interesting to know who did the treaking- IDNet or tbb (or both).

I suspect it was IDNet; thinking back on it, most of the sites I couldn't reach were dual-stack.

[Bill]

As an afterthought, my IPv6 BQM has suddenly lost all its massive latency spikes:

[.Griff.]

It must have been a problem with TBB. If you look at the other latency monitor in my forum sig there's no sign of an outage there.

Not necessarily- the dual-stack sites I couldn't reach had nothing to do with tbb.

Anyway, I can't tell who it was but I know a man who can

[Bill]

Looks like I spoke too soon, it's gone horrible again... Simon Davies isn't aware of either doing anything, but there was a glitch on LONAP which might be worth following up.

[Steve]

I suppose when LONAP is routing IPv4 nicely, IPv6 is borked

[Bill]

Routing is not something I know much about (to put it mildly!) but afaik IDNet have direct peering with NetConnex (aka tbb) so I'm not sure where LONAP fit in...

But it's a clue as to where some of the IPv6 oddities between the two might be coming from.

[Steve]

Well it is interesting that the IPv6 BGM worked well if only for a short time.

[Bill]

Tbb are running some tests, let's hope they find something!

We didn't have an outage but there was a brief issue reported on the LONAP peering exchange at 10am. We peer with Netconnex, who host TBB,  at LONAP so that would have caused the anomaly's on the graphs.

[Steve]

Thanks Simon, Indeed a couple of hours later we now have the Tbb IPv6 BQM and speedtest producing sensible responses.

[Bill]

Yes, it might turn out to have been quite a serendipitous failure

But I'm not uncrossing my fingers for another 24 hours

[Steve]

I've put the live graph in my signature,

[Bill]

They've been in and out of mine like a yo-yo today, but they're back in now...
