Cogent sends same letter to all customers who asked for what is going on and in the letter they say that two weeks ago, peering to AOL was upgraded to OC48 from OC12 and now for some reason AOL stopped peering and if somebody has questions they should call AOL to complain .. (with phone# to their NOC provided in the letter - not very nice thing to do it like this in my opinion).If nothing else, Cogent could be using their idle 6461 transit, instead of grandstanding by overloading their Level 3 capacity so they can blame AOL.
is it really idle ? Why wouldn't Cogent create a community string to provide its multihomed customers with prepend 16631 (or customer asn) to Level3 peering sessions to control inbounds better? -Basil
