I found other channels reach out to other network engineers to be effective so 
didn’t resort to ausnog.

Hi all,

I’d love others to provide their thoughts regarding what happened during this 
time as I was quite surprised to see this not be a thread at the actual time of 
occurrence.

Multiple providers were posting network notifications at the time that there 
were issues (Micron21, Zettagrid, Vultr) but no one has elaborated as to what 
the actual cause of the (what appears to be) peering issues were (BGP flapping, 
etc).

Are we sure this was just limited to MegaIX Sydney? Or was it a peer doing this 
over multiple Sydney based IX’s with a common peer? Who was the peer that 
caused this?

Looks like you have done your research Karl so please share 😊

Kind regards,
David

Hi Ryan,

You’re a little late to the party; there was an ARP storm on Mega-IX Sydney 
yesterday.

Much hilarity ensued. Particularly if peers had default Juniper ARP policers.

TL:DR it wasn’t just you. It was most of Au and NZ (sucking at the teat of 
MegaIX in Sydney).

Kind regards,

Karl

Hey all,

Did anyone else experience any irregularities yesterday (22 Sept) between 
10:39am - 11:50am ? (I know that sounds a bit vague) - but this is what we 
experienced during this window:

* Our nameservers failing to do resolution
* Sydney transit routers had BGP flaps to IX NSW peers
* Sydney ASR router generated 143 logs of: PUNT_INJECT-5-DROP_PUNT_CAUSE: punt 
cause policer drop packet casue 7 (ARP request or response)

Spoke to IX, who said:
"Yep we did, yesterday another IX had an outage (I believe a broadcast storm 
occurred) around the timestamps in your logs, a number of our members that had 
remote ends also connected to the other IX were affected by that outage and 
that is likely the reason for their session to flap towards us"


Just trying to see if anyone else experienced it, and better yet have any more 
details as to what may have caused it?



Kind regards,
Ryan van Klaveren
