Anyone else (Wiltel customers especially) running into an operational issue
around D.C. with partial connectivity
It would seem MCI and Wiltel around D.C. have a 'informal' peering
relationship and it's been errored right now for about 39 hours with a
half-duplex route announcement. This has been effecting us with some loss
of connectivity that's not there when we test same sites from other ISP
clouds. Since it's informal, the help desk system at one or both ands may
be having problem entering a ticket w/o an account number for the circuit.
The usual channels are not producting results, and we're starting to get
engineers on the lower end of the evoluationary food chain and finger
pointing between wgc & mci that's not helping. Tried a pch, haven't heard
yet.
