thanks for the post man... you should be on aim or something though when this stuff happens so that we can bash you with ims..lol

Posted by mrl14, 10-16-2003, 12:08 AM
As soon as it went down, They all logged of AIM...It's a conspiracy I tell you LOL :p

Posted by 13erla, 10-16-2003, 12:09 AM
they all? there's more than one AIM name? the one i have "burstnet" wasn't online prior to the outtage

Posted by Mat Sumpter, 10-16-2003, 12:09 AM
Oh so its not a switch???

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:11 AM
It is an intentional attack our network engineer is telling us. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by mrl14, 10-16-2003, 12:11 AM
Yeah, John Logged right off LOL. BTW WHT, is timing out too...weird.

Posted by 13erla, 10-16-2003, 12:11 AM
those fuzzy foreigners ey?

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:13 AM
<< As soon as it went down, They all logged off AIM...It's a conspiracy I tell you LOL :p >> It did knock out our network...including AIM. I think we'll be ordering a seperate T1 circuit tomorrow for the office, so that does not occur again. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by bubba hyde, 10-16-2003, 12:15 AM
Shawn, Thanks for the updates.

Posted by Maxplayer14, 10-16-2003, 12:15 AM
How about fixing the problem, we can worry about aim later.

Posted by 13erla, 10-16-2003, 12:16 AM
no no, aim main priority! hey put me on that office line too..hehe

Posted by tommyd, 10-16-2003, 12:17 AM
What is the ETR on the Repair?!? I got 15 Servers Down

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:17 AM
<< Thanks for the updates. >> You are welcome. <> I'm not a network engineer :-) So my time is best spent right now informing clients of issue. Our network engineers are working on the issue, and have been since less than 2-3 minutes after it began when they were paged. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by Maxplayer14, 10-16-2003, 12:17 AM
ETA you mean?

Posted by M7I, 10-16-2003, 12:18 AM
Thanks for the updates SMA.

Posted by kaosweaver, 10-16-2003, 12:19 AM
How long until back up? Of course, in true form, I have an ad that was sent out today in a pdf publication to 2 million people so the site has to die now.... Paul Davis Kaosweaver (dedicated through mainarea)

Posted by Mat Sumpter, 10-16-2003, 12:19 AM
Estimated time of repair.. ETR

Posted by wayhawke, 10-16-2003, 12:19 AM
It still has knocked out your network and Xnumber of servers !!!

Posted by mrl14, 10-16-2003, 12:20 AM
Makes Sense . Lately I've just been trying to find some weird humour in everything...sorry hehe. And yes...thanks for the updates.

Posted by Mat Sumpter, 10-16-2003, 12:20 AM
Attacks can last an undetermined amount of time.. Null route one set of IPs.. Others pop up...

Posted by server4sale, 10-16-2003, 12:20 AM
I guess really major dos/ddos which was able to bring down GIGe lines Atleast Sma is here to let us know. SMA u need to get 1 T1 1 DSL from Verizon, And seprate dsl as backups for ur office

Posted by mrl14, 10-16-2003, 12:20 AM
Nice seems back now

Posted by AKavanaugh, 10-16-2003, 12:21 AM
No offense, but how many attacks are accidental? Heh.

Posted by stevenblazer, 10-16-2003, 12:21 AM
Nope still down.... SMA is it the same person / thing that cause the downtime last week? Or what is it?

Posted by Matt, 10-16-2003, 12:23 AM
We're up and this is the first issue we have experienced in months. Not sure why you are different...

Posted by tommyd, 10-16-2003, 12:23 AM
I have noticed it Down sooo much! High Pings Occasionally alot of DOS attacks

Posted by tommyd, 10-16-2003, 12:24 AM
Still Down Every 30 Pings I get One Reply with 1500ms

Posted by Matt, 10-16-2003, 12:25 AM
It's going to be slow for awhile, it doesn't just come back up right away at full speed, it takes time to filter the attack

Posted by stevenblazer, 10-16-2003, 12:26 AM
Getting pings of 112 out of 30pings.

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:28 AM
UPDATE: incoming flood from mass multiple ips attacking our entire address blocks. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by wayhawke, 10-16-2003, 12:29 AM
100% packet lost !!!

Posted by SnoTurtle, 10-16-2003, 12:29 AM
Its up, yay!

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:29 AM
<< No offense, but how many attacks are accidental? Heh. >> I meant, this attack is against us directly, not against a specific server in our facility. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by 13erla, 10-16-2003, 12:30 AM
wow i'm like a pro at starting the popular threads on here :-) maybe it's a curse.. I want my server back :-( lol

Posted by e-creations, 10-16-2003, 12:30 AM
I've got 60% loss at the moment, no biggie though, we burnt a power supply last night and Silvio had me running again under thirty minutes, so I'm forgiving tonight

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:31 AM
They have overloaded the FE 100MBPS lines: Cogent & XO...but not our GIG-E lines. We'll be upgrading both of those lines to GIG-E immediately to avoid this in future. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by 13erla, 10-16-2003, 12:32 AM
damn i don't know what i'm on.. i guess not gig-e if i'm down

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:33 AM
Cogent line cleared up. XO line slowly dropping. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by marcustr, 10-16-2003, 12:35 AM
Everything seems back to normal for us. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Posted by kaosweaver, 10-16-2003, 12:37 AM
I'm back, thanks for the quick work. Paul Kaosweaver

Back up here. Alex and network team, great job.

Posted by bubba hyde, 10-16-2003, 12:37 AM
Back up here as well. Thanks Shawn for your teams rapid response.

Posted by stevenblazer, 10-16-2003, 12:39 AM
Back up here as well thanks shawn

Posted by 13erla, 10-16-2003, 12:40 AM
way to go! i love burst net! someone start the burst net is best appreciation thread!

Posted by tommyd, 10-16-2003, 12:41 AM
Back up as well - -best Pings times I have ever had as well on my servers

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:42 AM
DDOS is part of life on the Net :-( It actually happens daily to us multiple times, but most are targetted towards a single server and only like 10MBPS. That is not enough for clients to even notice, except on the box it is directed to. This occassion was different however, as they were coming at us with over near the same capacity of our entire network! This was a highly planned attack, by individual(s) with alot of resources. We'll be investigating and dealing with it legally. SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by e-creations, 10-16-2003, 12:46 AM
Good job guys

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 12:51 AM
All I can say is that after the network issues earlier this year, we spared no expense hiring a new network engineer, and simply looked for the best. Considering the scale of this attack, and the speedy resolution, he just earned his paychecks :-) SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by Senad, 10-16-2003, 12:57 AM
So BURSTCEO, you have just confirmed you will be updating your FE 100MBPS: XO & Cogent to GIG-E? Your response time was excellent by the way .

Posted by Curto, 10-16-2003, 01:02 AM
Thankyou for resolving this issue quickly... not quick enough to stop a client paging me out of a dream.... but still quick

Posted by HostJedi, 10-16-2003, 01:06 AM
<< you will be updating your FE 100MBPS: XO & Cogent to GIG-E? >> That is correct. Doing such should enable us to handle even larger attacks. This attack overloaded out 100MB FE lines, but not our GIG-E lines. << response time was excellent by the way >> thank you. we appreciate the understanding from all of you during this issue! SMA PRES/CEO BURSTNET

Posted by ThomasC, 10-16-2003, 01:23 AM
Well done Burst Regards, Thomas Currie
