This morning at approximately 10:10am CST a link failure between DLLSTX3 and DLLSTX2 began causing performance degradation across portions of The Planet’s network. Intermittent latency was experienced by some customers for varying periods of time during the network condition. Upon notification of the link failure, The Planet’s Network Engineers were on hand to determine the point of failure and correct the issue. Network conditions were restored to normal at approximately 1:45pm CST, and the link will continue to be monitored for detection of any possible future problems.

Future Mitigation: The Network Engineering department will be reviewing this incident to determine the source of the failure, and should the issue require further repair notification will be made 48 hours in advance of any scheduled maintenance windows.
