Subject: Major Net Failure at Netcom
As of about 4pm today, Netcom has had a major failure of their entire
network, apparently all POPs are down as well as all leased line customers.
The have localized the problem to their BGP/OSPF routers. (wow, that must
have taken a brain surgeon to figure out.)
At the moment, they have disconnected themselves from MAE-West and "have
the people who designed the network working on it".
