Network Alert: 2nd December 2014

9:00am WST: One of our service providers is experiencing a massive DDoS. They have informed us they are working to have the issue mitigated.

This issue may cause intermittent access to services relying on DNS.

Update 10:00am WST: Our provider is still working on the issue.  Partial DNS services have been restored but some World Wide servers are still being brought back on-line.  Intermittent DNS issues will still be experienced.

Update 11:00am WST: Our provider continues to work on the Denial of Service Attack on their World Wide DNS servers.  This is still resulting in intermittent access to our wireless controllers.

Update 1:00pm WST: Services appear to be resolving back to our service provider and they indicate World Wide services are being restored.

Closed 2:00pm WST: The issue was confirmed resolved by our service provider.  All services appeared to be working as expected.
