Technical Details
The disruption was characterized by a reduction in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) control plane visibility, which measures the stability of routing announcements for internet prefixes. The BGP signal recorded a severity score of 441 during the event. The ping-slash24 signal, which measures ICMP reachability across IPv4 /24 prefixes, showed a 24% drop from its peak. The gtr-norm signal, a forecast deviation from an expected traffic baseline, recorded a 62% drop from its peak. The merit-nt signal, an aggregate connectivity proxy based on backscatter measurements, showed a 48% drop from its peak.
The cause has not been publicly attributed.
The disruption was resolved by 06:45 UTC.
