Cody R. Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 There is currently intermittent connectivity in our WDC facility due to a network issue that's currently being investigated by data center technicians. We'll provide more updates in this thread as we receive more information.
Cody R. Posted February 4, 2011 Author Report Posted February 4, 2011 We're currently trying to get further information on the issue / an ETA on how long until resolution.
Cody R. Posted February 4, 2011 Author Report Posted February 4, 2011 We're still waiting on word from the Sr. network engineers at the data center in regards to this issue. We hope to be able to provide more information shortly. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Cody R. Posted February 4, 2011 Author Report Posted February 4, 2011 According to the data center technicians this is due to a large inbound DDoS to WDC. They're currently working on mitigating the DDoS. Not every WDC server is affected by this currently.
Cody R. Posted February 4, 2011 Author Report Posted February 4, 2011 According to the network engineers the DDoS has been mitigated although we're still experiencing connectivity issues to two of our WDC servers (Neptune, Jedi). They're currently investigating as to why.
Cody R. Posted February 4, 2011 Author Report Posted February 4, 2011 At this time everything is fully responsive in WDC. We'll be monitoring the network closely for the next 24 hours and inquiring with the data center as to what exactly went wrong during their mitigation and what actions will be taken to prevent further issues such as these from happening.
Cody R. Posted February 4, 2011 Author Report Posted February 4, 2011 The Jedi server is experiencing additional network issues. We're in contact with data center engineers who are investigating as to why.
Tony Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 The network has been fine again for a while. We're still awaiting word on what exactly the cause of these issues were. What we've been told is it is believed the issues were caused by a cisco bug and communication with cisco eventually lead to network stability again. As to what was done we're still waiting on answers to that.
