In addition to the current Linx issues we are now receiving reports that Telehouse North is suffering a power failure.
Warwicknet is not located in North, but certain upstream providers and peers may be impacted, again affecting routes.
We will keep you posted as soon as we have any further updates.
Update: Power was restored at 14:47.
We have had notification through from LINX (London Internet Exchange) that there are issues on one of the Linx networks.
LINX is where we exchange traffic for other providers (approximately 60% of our traffic).
This is having knock on effects for all Warwicknet customers. You may experience intermittent or slow service to certain websites.
We apologise for any interuption caused.
We will post an update at 15:15.
Regards… Ben
Today at approximately 15:00 there will be a brief interuption to service at the Venture Centre (University of Warwick Science Park), this is while we replace a defective UPS.
23:45 – 10/5/2010 -> 06:00 – 11/6/2010
We have received notification from one of our providers one segment of our Coventry ring is ‘at risk’ during the above period. The reason given is ‘3rd Party Plant Diversion’.
Traffic will automatically reroute across the network, so aren’t expecting any outages. However the ring will be degraded so the network will be ‘at risk’.
We have suffered a switch PSU failure in our POP at Warwick HRI, all customer services at that site are affected, an engineer is en-route with a replacement switch.
We expect service to be restored by 17:00 hours.
Wednesday 14th April 2010, 23:00 to 03:00
During the above timeslot we will upgrading the software on our London and Coventry core routers, this will be done one router at a time in rotation across the Coventry ring.
Connected customers and sites may notice intermittent blips in connectivity as the network reconverges around each router reboot.
We don’t anticipate any major problems.
At around 9am today we detected flapping on the link from THE to UWSP, we have therefore temporarily disabled routing over the link while we investigate further. Traffic is flowing normally, however the Coventry ring is ‘At Risk’.
Due to ongoing problems with one of our core London Cisco switches, we need to reload the switch to restore service to all customers.
This problem has been escalated with Cisco as a P1 and we are awaiting a permanent fix.
Wednesday, 27th January 2010, 21:00 to 00:00
During the above slot we will be carrying out a number of minor maintenance tasks at our Coventry POPs, these tasks include:
We expect disruption to be minimal for Coventry connectivity and point to point services.
We are currently experiencing an outage on all of our Virgin national ethernet circuits. This is affecting customers in Blyth Valley Park and leased line customers terminated on Virgin ethernet tails.
We have escalated the issue to Virgin.
