Subject: Router crash unplugs 1m Swedish Internet users Date: Mon, Jun 23, 2003 at 04:24:27PM -0400 Quoting Sean Donelan (sean () donelan com):
Has anyone heard what the cause of the outage was?
Mikael wrote about memory shortage. I have heard the same -- though not from press contacts but from staff. It was worded (but in swedish, so bear with my translation): "The official reason is 'memory shortage'. I do believe it is correct." There have been words in the grapevine about not going for full memory on line cards and RP, for "optimisation reasons". Sounds like a fine recipe for promoting cascading failures from a fragile base config. -- Måns Nilsson Systems Specialist +46 70 681 7204 KTHNOC MN1334-RIPE I represent a sardine!!
