Colocrossing Network down in Los Angeles and Other Locations

So, ColoCrossing appears to be having a rather large outage.

Roughly an hour or more downtime.   

Definitely out in Los Angeles at Quadranet.

Other locations folks are mumbling about being down in as well.

What are you seeing?

Yep, I'm seeing it too. They don't know any details themselves, at least that's what I'm being told..

Which location?

 Please keep in mind some colocation customers run their own network infrastructure.
That's right kids, CC dumped Quadra's BW a few months back and has at last check almost single homed self rolled network.  I believe it was nLayer in one direction barely at times and mostly Zayo everywhere else.

BlueVM is down in Chicago, Atlanta, LA, and New York: http://bluevm.linuxthefish.net/

Pretty much everywhere but Texas and Jersey.

GVH as well according to LET, unsure on locations from them but I'm sure someone can chime in. Probably the same.

Strange for it to be across multiple locations.

Dam must be their switch they are using for a supposed router? Just speculation! :)

Question always has been if other locations were as poorly wired.  No doubt that they ran the same old school routers with same round robin balancing on uplinks.

They supposedly bought / upgraded in the past year though.  So the story went and photo op on their social stuff.  But I only saw one box, router... didn't see stuff for all their locations....   and I know they are still ghetto 100Mbit ports in Cali even though Fabozzi lies on sales of San Jose claiming Gbit.

Fair and honest question, but are CHI, ATL, LA, and NY all locations where they converted to their own rolled network instead of using facility bandwidth?

I wager my bet on those being own rolled network locations.

I know LA is own rolled network as per earlier research and routes compared to the Quadra house blends.

One thing's for sure, I must deal with this issue tomorrow when I'm fresh, after a proper sleep of four hours. Set up the stuff I use there at some reliable (read: reputable) provider - probably BuyBM or RamNode. It's just the main IRC node + KiwiIRC and some other insignificant services, but the main node can't cope with this each and every time. Sometimes it works, the next day it's rubbish.

The little user base I have are all complaining over unstable network. Sometimes its not that easy to run 25+ IRC nodes on a one man operation...at least not for me, I could use that time for productive stuff rather than having to deal with constant nonsense.

I'm going to force myself to re-do the entire set up tomorrow, shouldn't take so long. In the end, it'll be worth the hassle  :rolleyes:

Weird, one CC provider said NTT was responsible for this.

I don't know CC to use NTT.  They certainly haven't recently at least in LA.  Blend out there for them looks to be HE and Zayo.

To confirm: QuadraNet is not having any power or network outages within any of our datacenters. Please keep in mind some colocation customers run their own network infrastructure.
I can confirm Quadranet's Network is perfectly fine and has not had any power outages either.  

I have a dedi with a provider that owns a rack in Quadranet and no network or power failure since I've been with him (which has been a while).

The CC provider who said that is a 16 yr old habitual liar with very limited technical knowledge. :)  NTT wasn't responsible.




Bye-Low on WHT

 

The issue was related to a access layer switch issue that occurred simultaneously in about 9% of our cabinets, across 5 different sites. The problem is almost fully resolved at this time.


This was not a carrier issue, nor were any of our sites fully offline at anytime.
