I find it interesting that whatever the failure of SxC was that not everyone was affected and infect our upstream had no glitch to AU or USA to any of our monitoring points. Seems like the impact people are seeing with some carriers may be Business/Architectural in nature rather than some world ending SxC failure

Except for where resiliency was down due to previously scheduled maintenance…  Certainly wasn’t seamless from my point of view.  But yes, Clare Curran needs to GTFO

Presumably a redundant link means that nobody loses service when they accidentally break one of them?

It does seem like an excuse to blame National for not propping up Pacific Fibre, rather than anything wrong with a redundant set of links failing over correctly due to a fault, as designed

There is a thread discussing it on AUSNOG. Looks like Labour basically quoted that.
