We’re aware of brief, occasional interruptions on traffic routed through one of our upstream carriers along the US East Coast. This is caused by fiber issues outside of that carrier’s control, which have led to short periods of instability on some of their routes.
The interruptions we’ve seen have lasted only a few seconds, and connections recover on their own. Only traffic that takes these paths is affected, which mainly includes some connections from the Eastern US and Europe. The rest of our network is running normally.
We’re actively adjusting routing to keep traffic off the affected paths where possible, and we’re continuing to monitor the situation. No action is needed on your end, and you don’t need to report these interruptions. This post is for informational purposes, so you’re aware of what’s going on if you notice a brief disconnect.
