Mon Oct 25 17:28:00 PDT 2004 — Network Maintenance. Tonight at Midnight tonight we are going to be replacing some forwarding hardware on one of our new routers in San Francisco. While the upgrade is being conducted there will be degraded performance and potentially a few short service interruption as routing protocols converge. -Kelsey, Nathan and John
Update: We have confirmed that our previous issues were due to a bad forwarding card. After a quick replacement, everything looks great. The replacement itself required moving traffic off the router, which resulted in around 45 seconds of degraded service to a subset of Internet destination. This completes the first phase of Sonic.net’s new network build out — as of tonight, we have over 1.2 Gbps of capacity out of Santa Rosa! -Nathan and John
