FYI. In the CTL acquisition of L3, they failed to appreciate & retain the L3 talent & this is the fallout.

Next thing you know CTL's BGP is going to be routing all of us through China, AGAIN.

Actually, just the opposite. CTL's people are the ones being herded out, and L3's people are taking over everywhere. It's crazy.

Why, was I unclear? I doubt it differs much if at all, from mine.

I said they failed to retain 'the talent' . Can't speak to them there 'people who are taking over everywhere' now. Following?


& I promise, my little opinion doesn't count. ZORT

Report: Huge CenturyLink outage caused by bad networking card in Colorado

A widespread outage on CenturyLink’s cloud network that lasted almost two days and hampered emergency phone service in Washington and other states was caused by a faulty network management card, according to a customer notice.

Brian Krebs, a veteran security journalist, posted a copy of a notice sent to CenturyLink’s “core customers” to his Twitter feed Saturday that blamed a card at its data center in Colorado for “propagating invalid frame packets across devices,” causing a series of issues that forced the company to reboot much of its networking equipment. It took CenturyLink more than two days from when it first identified the issues to sound the all-clear on Saturday morning, a period during which 911 services in several states including Washington were down or spotty.
