high latency various carriers

Late close

Situation seems mostly stable right now, and some sessions have been re-enabled. We will continue to monitor.

We are currently observing high latency via various carriers (Cogent + Sparkle) towards various targets, most likely related towards ongoing DDoS attacks.

Both carriers have been drain to mitigate the impact.

Within the last weeks, Sparkle in particular has not met our expectation as a solid transit carrier. We will re-evaluate its presence in the current IPT mix.
