- Telstra (Australia) had a backbone network routing meltdown disrupting traffic to/from/within Australia for several hours. Timezone, so this happened wednesday in Australia?
I didn't notice any outage here in Australia. That means it was most likely only Telstra's international link(s) and not their standard domestic meltdown (which is when they accidentally inject 20k-100k routes into AS1221 - it's happened 2 or 3 times over the past 2 and a bit years, when Telstra have an international link cut or other outage they have accidentally bloated AS1221 by 100k routes taking out Optus and others who would have been otherwise unaffected).
