> Timeline summary
> ----------------
> 06/07/18 14:40 EDT - Fire in manhole outside 85 Tenth Ave
> Damaged circuits included redundant pop-to-pop circuit
> (85 Tenth, NY, to 165 Halsey, Newark) and circuit to
> one of three major upstreams (NTT).
> All operations continued over fall-back paths with
> reduced redundancy.
> 06/08/18 10:24 EDT - Service restored: POP-to-POP circuit
> Temporary repair.
> 06/09/18 02:40 EDT - Service restored: ISPnet-to-NTT
> As this service restoral followed a notice from the carrier
> that they had a splice crew working in the affected manhole,
> we believe this is a permanent fix (not a temporary work-
> around) but we have not been able to verify this yet with
> the carrier.
> Current status
> --------------
> The network is operational at full redundancy.
> During the course of the outage, no customers lost service.
> A few customers reported performance problems, mostly related
> to tunnels operating over fall-back paths. These problems
> were addressed as they were reported. We believe there are
> no currently open issues.
> Next Steps
> ----------
> We will work with the carriers for both circuits to
> schedule maintenance windows for fiber splcing, if
> required, in cases of temporary repairs.
> Customers experiencing any service related issues should
> contact ISPnet Support.
