Hi James, This is a follow-up to last week's series of email exchanges regarding variable reception of NEXRAD Level II data being relayed by idd.unidata.ucar.edu... There have been major networking problems here in the Colorado Front Range for the past several days. The following note we received from UCAR/NCAR NETS let us know of the problem and that folks were working on a solution. Here is notice that we received: Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2012 15:35:13 -0600 (MDT) From: address@hidden To: address@hidden To: address@hidden Subject: Re: [NNAG] [Notifier] FRGP/UPoP Network UNSCHEDULED OUTAGE on 10/19/12 Reply-To: address@hidden STATUS NOTIFICATION Level3 techs cleaned a fiber in Denver and the circuit is now stable. BGP sessions have been re-established and all services are restored. Posted by John Hernandez ____________________ Previous notification dated Fri Oct 19 2012 1:57 PM MDT: UNSCHEDULED OUTAGE NOTIFICATION The Internet2 WRN circuit to Kansas City has been unstable for much of today. The instability has worsened in the past hour, so we have deactivated the BGP session to Internet2 KC and TR/CPS Chicago. Internet2 is still reachable via CalREN, and TR/CPS Seattle also remains available, so there should be no significant user impact. CENIC, Internet2, and Level3 have identified a degraded optical receive level in Denver and are working towards a solution, but we do not currently have an ETR. We will update again when ETR is known. START: Fri Oct 19 2012 9:00 AM MDT END: Unknown SERVICES AFFECTED FRGP/UPoP Network PRIMARY CONTACT John Hernandez ... SECONDARY CONTACTS Pete Siemsen ... Posted by John Hernandez A review of the time history of NEXRAD2 volume being reported by your machine, llwxldm1, strongly suggests to us that the problem has NOT yet been resolved. We are in contact with the appropriate network folks here in UCAR/NCAR trying to keep abreast of the progress on fixing the problem.
