I was over at MAE-East installing some equipment sometime early
this summer & I was talking with some MFS folks. They were looking
at the AC powered gear that I was installing & were wondering why
I did not do DC - they said that there was *lots* of DC capacity
(all battery backed) at MAE-East. Last week I was over there again
& poked around. I think that I only saw *two* folks that were
using DC - everyone else was on AC.
So what are you using? AC or DC? If you are not on DC, I would
switch. Maybe you would have better luck.
As far as uptime goes - some folks have not seen any outages -
Digex has been up for 3+ weeks; ICM for 2+ weeks. It does look
like all BGP sessions reset 2days9hours ago.
