Additional update and details


On December 27, 2018 at 02:40 GMT, CenturyLink identified a service impact in New Orleans, LA. The NOC is engaged and investigating in order to isolate the cause. Field Operations were engaged and dispatched for additional investigations. Tier IV Equipment Vendor Support was later engaged. During cooperative troubleshooting a device in San Antonio, TX was isolated from the network as it was seeming to broadcast traffic consuming capacity, which seemed to alleviate some impact. Investigations remained ongoing. Following the isolation of the San Antonio, TX device troubleshooting efforts focused on additional sites that teams were remotely unable to troubleshoot. Field Operations were dispatched to sites in Kansas City, MO, Atlanta, GA, New Orleans, LA and Chicago, IL. Tier IV Equipment Vendor Support continued to investigate the equipment logs to further assist with isolation. Once visibility was restored to the site in Kansas City, MO a filter was applied to the equipment to further alleviate the impact observed. All of the necessary troubleshooting teams in cooperation with Tier IV Equipment Vendor Support are working to restore remote visibility to the remaining sites at this time. We understand how important these services are to our clients and the issue has been escalated to the highest levels within CenturyLink Service Assurance Leadership.

Good morning. Here is the latest update:


12/28/2018 13:18:47 GMT - The Equipment Vendor and CenturyLink engineers continue work to apply the filters and remove the secondary communication channels. Field Operations and Equipment Vendor dispatches to recover nodes locally remain underway. Services continue to restore in a steady manner as troubleshooting progresses following the recovery of nodes. CenturyLink NOC management remains in contact with the equipment vendor to obtain updates as restoration efforts continue.


Good progress has been made. The restoration of the nodes is taking longer than anticipated. Many of the CenturyLink ticking and flow through systems have been restored. Another update will be provided again soon. Thanks for your support and patience.
