Verizon Issues? East Coast US

Tue Mar 1 03:07:16 UTC 2011

I was just looking at an issue between 701 in Toronto.   Seems to be resolved now-- at least the issue I was seeing.

the bad traceroute, looked like

When it was not working, packets would not get from my AS (11647) to the target in IP in AS701.  But packets from 701 would get back to my AS.  The AS path in both directions are 701-6453-11647 and 11647 6453 701...  I saw a similar outage to VPNs I have in AS15290 which I see as 11647 6453 701 15290.  However, I did not have time to check if it was the same behaviour with loss being in one direction. In both cases, IPs that follow 11647 174 701 and 701 174 11647 and 11647 174 7018 15290  and 15290 7018 174 11647 were not impacted.
