The hard disks failed in both border0.nlams1 and border0.nlams2 a short while ago, nlams1 was still running but nlams2 was down for a few weeks. Both disks have been replaced and both routers are now up with an upgraded operating system. GN-IX peering and JointTransit IPv6 Transit are back.

Due to some high load from the rpd process border0.bebru1 was not responding very well (although still forwarding traffic) - this morning it rebooted itself due to loss of software watchdog, causing a reset of all FreeBIX peering sessions and some transit providers. Our redundant network setup covered the outage and the router came back nicely.

Third IPv6 Transit, this time in the Netherlands, also turned up - JointTransit!

GlobalAxs (AS 9009) IPv6 transit is now also connected.

First IPv6 transit provider has been turned up, Jaguar Network!

We now have direct ethernet connectivity between Belgium and The Netherlands again!

Phyxia has received its brand new IPv6 /48 PI-space and will be making the network fully IPv6-capable in the upcoming weeks.

Since the third of august, Phyxia Networks reconnected to FreeBIX at AXS Datahouse. Peering policy is open, many sessions have since been reestablished. Happy peering!

Since a few weeks our AS112.net node has been moved from VMWare server to Xen, and from BIND to PowerDNS. It has proven to be a lot more stable now. A new statistics graphing system has been installed now, and the prefix is also announced to one of our transit providers.

Due to a denial of service attack covering several gigabits of traffic our network was down for a period of time - part of it is now up again.

The weathermap page on our website has been restored, containing our current network layout.

Due to a power failure at NIKHEF Amsterdam nlams2 is down. As the nlams1 connection also runs through NIKHEF we currently do not have any connectivity there either.

Due to a power outage in SARA yesterday, Amsterdam our connection to Databarn (nlams1) was disrupted. Because there is currently no redundant path to NIKHEF (nlams2) this PoP also got separated from the rest of the network between 16:10 and 17:15.

This morning between 9:40 and 10:10 some routing problems arose due to a foreign network leaking our route to their transit provider(s) via Russia causing major packet loss. The problem was averted through BGP announcement of more specific routes for our netblock, and the providers involved have been contacted.

AS112 service restored, now also announed at GN-IX internet exchange.

Yesterday border0.nlams2.phyxia.net was taken into service, it is located at NIKHEF, Amsterdam and is connected to the GNIX. Backbone connection will follow shortly.

In the night of 13-Jun-2008, the bebru1 PoP was moved from Versatel Nossegem to AXS Datahouse 1 in Zaventem. Services have been restored gradually. FreeBIX connectivity is currently still offline. Due to configuration problems the nlams1 PoP was offline during the bebru1 downtime.

The NTP server was replaced due to hardware problems.

Due to problems at the host of our colocator we had to move to a different suite/datacenter. Due to this the nlams1 pop was disconnected for a period of about 45 hours. Connectivity is now restored, a dedicated VLAN/MPLS to bebru1 will be reactivated soon.

Today from about 12:00 until 14:45 there were MTU issues on our path between the two pops - this caused most larger packets to be dropped. The problem had been found and was resolved.

18-Jul-2007 18:32: Due to an unknown problem in our link to the Amsterdam PoP connectivity is currently broken.

Update 19-Jul-2007 18:32: Issue resolved.

The router was restored around 16:00. Mainboard was broken, harddisk image got corrupted due to repeated failed boots. Hardware replaced, software reinstalled. This is temporary spare hardware, will be replaced again in the future.

Due to power maintenance at Telecity Redbus 3, nlams1 was briefly without power last night. Apparently some hardware got damaged, RAM is suspected - the router is down until it can be fixed locally.

Since a few moments we now have an MPLS link between bebru1 and nlams1. IPv6 transit to nlams1 will be enabled soon.

After about 90 days of downtime our circuit to the FreeBIX in Amsterdam has been restored.

Our AS112 node was re-set up and is now fully functional again, being announced behind AS35627 on the FreeBIX internet exchange. Soon it will be connected directly onto FreeBIX as well.

Phyxia Networks is now peering with the Ghost Route Hunter project, in an effort to efficiently find routing problems in the IPv6 DFZ.

We now have IPv6 transit from Globalaxs Communications (AS9009), and have received a /44 prefix (16 /48's). IPv6 will be turned up on our network gradually as routers are configured.

Traffic graphs have been fully restored.

Traffic between the nlams1 and bebru1 PoPs is currently rerouted over a tunnel due to link failure in TelecityRedbus 3, Amsterdam.

We now have a private connection to as250.net in Versatel, Nossegem which will be used for IPv6 transit.

Yesterday our bebru1 PoP was moved from InterXion Brussels to Versatel Nossegem. This resulted in a few hours of downtime. FreeBIX is not connected yet, this will be rectified as soon as possible.

Due to a power failure at TelecityRedbus 3 in Amsterdam our equipment was without power from 16:00 CEST until 17:10 CEST. There were some problems bringing the router back up after the failure, but our nlams1 node is now fully operational again.

Today border0.nlams1.phyxia.net was installed into the Zylon Internet Services rack at Redbus Interhouse, Amsterdam. This location is also FreeBIX-connected.

Phyxia Networks is now announcing the AS112 prefix to the FreeBIX internet exchange.
Statistics are available at as112.phyxia.net. For more information, check www.as112.net.

Phyxia Networks is now connected to the FreeBIX internet exchange and is accepting peers.
