Northern California Legacy DSL Outage

Update(9:30AM): All suspect hardware has been replaced. We believe affected customers should now be operational and will continue to monitor the situation.

 

Update(7:15AM): We are still working towards resolution with the remaining customers that are down

 

Update(3:03AM): We were able to restore most subscribers via equipment reboot, however a subset of circuits cannot be restored without hardware replacement. We are dispatching with replacement hardware with an ETA of 5AM.

 

At approximately 10:40PM, equipment serving a subset of legacy DSL subscribers in Northern California had a hardware failure. We are working to restore traffic as quickly as possible but anticipate resolution will require an emergency maintenance reload of the device. Updates to follow.

VPN Upgrade: Enable IPv6

Update: This configuration change has been implemented.  Please refer to the below listed forum thread if you have any questions.

On Tuesday, September 1st we will be modifying the configuration of our main VPN server so that IPv6 addresses will be pushed to clients along with the standard IPv4 address. Your client should reconnect automatically after the server is restarted to implement the new configuration. If you would like to test this functionality prior to the scheduled date our beta vpn server (beta.vpn.sonic.net) is currently set up with v6 enabled. If you have any comments, questions, or issues after testing on the beta server please go to this forum and post a reply: https://forums.sonic.net/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=16576
