Re: MCI and SprintLink are partitioned (fwd)

Hi, 
Currently MCI peers with Sprintlink at four places: Mae-East,
Mae-West, New York NAP, and Chicago NAP, and these peers do 
backup each other.  I just checked the peer status a few 
minutes ago.  Here is what I found: 

interconnect    up time
Mae-East        6:06:45    (sheduled maintainence this morning)
Mae-West        3d04
NY NAP          4d20
Chicago NAP     1w6d

Clearly this data does not support the remark that a 
partition (total loss of peers) happened between MCI and 
Sprint yesterday evening.

Anyone willing to say what happened?

      MCI and SprintLink are disconnected at the moment.  MCI is
having a BGP problem with SprintLink.  Currently the two networks 
are partitioned.  The problem started just after 7pm (Mountain time)
and is still occuring.
