Small interruption IPng logs 2026-08-07 20:45-21:35Z

Hoi folks,

IPng's carrier had a transport switch crash and reboot yesterday, which caused quite a few networks reaching us via Amsterdam to have a few minutes of unavailability. It was minor, but this morning I also got an alert that Halloumi dipped under 90% for the day, with a timeline coinciding the the outage. I've written a report on https://status.ipng.ch/public/incidents/philosophic-labyrinth

TL/DR: On Fri Aug 7 20:45:24 2026 (UTC), a transport switch in Amsterdam crashed and rebooted.
This resulted in loss of connectivity from our Amsterdam NGINX cluster to the CT Log machines in Zurich.
Timeline:

• 20:45Z the switch rebooted
• 20:53Z service was restored
• 21:35Z all traffic was restored to pre-incident levels.
• The outage lasted approximately 8 minutes.

Actions:

• Replace switch in Amsterdam (planned first week of September)

Have a great weekend ahead, I will continue to melt in the uncharacteristic 34C/95F temperature here in Zurich.

groet,
Pim
