Equatorial Guinea experienced a disruption in its Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) control plane visibility on Monday, July 14, 2026. The event began at 18:35 UTC and lasted for approximately 1.9 hours, concluding by 20:30 UTC. The disruption registered a severity score of 288, primarily affecting the BGP signal.
Technical Details
The BGP signal, which measures the control plane visibility for internet routing prefixes, recorded a drop in its median value. The signal’s value fell from a peak of 120 to a low of 113, representing a 6% reduction in observed visibility during the event window. Other network health indicators, including active probing for IPv4 reachability and traffic volume forecasts, showed minor fluctuations but no significant correlated outages. The cause has not been publicly attributed.
Network conditions were reported as stable at the end of the observation period.
