No, looks like GBLX has null routed traffic to certain IPs.
Foonet doesn't have Qwest anymore - even though their web page still advertises Qwest bandwidth.

They appear to be up right now.

Qwest is history When I was with them, the speed wasn't real fast, roughly 60kB/s from ftp.uu.net.
But it seems they are real fast now

Who do they use now?

Global Crossing and TimeWarner Telecom
Looks like all their IRC clients are on GBLX.

TimeWarner is the primary link for Web clients, GBLX is the primary for High-Risk clients. BGP is setup so that if one goes down, the other will pick up the traffic. Also, Qwest isn't gone completely - there are still routers and some customers that sit on the Qwest links - it's just been phased out of general routing access.

Andrew,
When are you going to get around to updating your site?
|
Posted by AKavanaugh, 11-18-2003, 09:33 AM |
I believe you mean Foonet's website - which I can say, I have no clue as my company no longer has service contracts with CIT. Paul would be the best person to ask about this type of service update - I know he was busy as of late implementing new Junipers, maybe the website is next on his To-Do list.

I though you were working for/with him?
Juniper? He finally realized Cisco can't filter worth a damn?

It(foonet) has been really unstable the last two days..

My company had a contract with CIT/Paul - contracts have end dates and the end date of our contract has passed.
I'm not sure what caused the switch of equipment - but I did get a chance to see Paul stressed out of his mind while trying to find time to configure the Juniper.

I've only noticed 2 significant drops of the entire IRC network and those were for about 30 seconds each.
