iWeb Experiences Network Instability

From the iWeb blog published on February 16, 2009 at 12:28 pm by iWeb-SLee:

We have experience some major network instability with the BGP sessions between 11:24 and 12:07. There were two ASN (39625 and 47868) who were injecting very long AS paths (over 255) in the global Internet. This caused our Cisco routers to reset the BGP sessions intermittently when they received the bogus routes. We have filtered out those AS numbers and the network is stable now. We are monitoring the situation. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused. Every thing should be back to normal now.
