Problem with peering between Gblx and WCG?

Wed Nov 2 19:38:19 UTC 2005

Yes, we had two tickets w/ WilTel related to this during the past week.  We 
initially noted a problem on Saturday (10/29).  After escalation, they resolved 
it sometime yesterday per my understanding.  After confirming the problem did
not still exist from the GBLX route-server (telnet://route-server.gblx.net) we 
turned our session back up with them yesterday evening.  It appears alright
from our perspective at present.

My understanding was that they had a saturated OC12c between them @ LAX.  Not
sure where else they inter-connect but it took several days for them to upgrade
that link.  Not sure why they didn't shift traffic elsewhere while working on 
the upgrade.
