There were some upstream issues that resulted in us loosing power a few times. Our team will be checking disk images and slowly getting connectivity back online, please have a bit of patience with us while we work on this.

–updates–

Core and Catos routers were restored from local images and should be alive again, we are still working on Ikus to see if it was damaged or not.

Ikus and CX were also damaged, Ikus has been restored from local. CX might need to be rolled back.

IPv6 Edge router is fine and is working as should. Web, email, NMS and Minecraft all seem to be okay as well.

So, when we connect project members to our networks, we enroll the interface on our side into our NMS for accounting. Every project member or end user can make use of up to 600GB of transit each month before being placed into a lower QoS bucket. Or so that it how things are supposed to work.

Our NMS applied its updates on its own daily not needing any real oversight from our team until about four days ago. An update failed to apply correctly which resulted in a complete failure of accounting and a mix up of interface names not matching with their respective subnets. So, in a nutshell, there was zero traffic accounting for about four days because none of the data that was accounted was correct.

This has been sorted out as of this morning and everyone’s monthly usage was reset.

We added stats to our website for the two name servers. You can now view incoming request, RTT and VM stats for the last 48 hours.

Also, While we have started dropping request for a handful of ‘.pirate’ and ‘.libre’ domains, as well as dropping request for ‘isc.org’, the request flood is still ongoing but has backed off to about half of the volume it was earlier this week. Two of the volunteers on our team are keeping an eye on things.
