Technical Details

The degradation primarily impacted the ping-slash24 signal, which measures ICMP reachability across IPv4 /24 prefixes. The signal recorded a severity score of 8,927. The disruption lasted approximately 1.5 hours, beginning at 12:20 UTC and ending at 13:50 UTC.

The gtr.sarima signal, which forecasts deviation from an expected traffic baseline, showed a drop magnitude of -67% from its peak. The merit-nt signal, a backscatter measurement that serves as an aggregate connectivity proxy, showed a -100% drop from its peak. The bgp signal, representing control plane visibility for prefixes, showed no significant change.

The cause has not been publicly attributed.

Connectivity was reported restored by the end of the observation period.
