The London Internet exchange experienced a failure on its Brocade peering LAN approximately 22:30 16th March. Some issues still remain, so to preserve traffic the majority of the NewNet Brocade LINX peering sessions will remain shut down till the issues have been resolved. This however may still affect customers connecting to other ISPs having issues.

This maintenance is for firmware and driver updates across our entire platform and during this time, there will be intermittent access to the Hosted Exchange services.
We would like to apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.
NewNet engineers will be carrying out hardware maintenance on the Powerhost shared mail server ‘mail2.ukisp.com’ to increase disk space capacity on this machine. This work is in preparation for upcoming upgrades to the Powerhost cluster.
Expected downtime is no more than 45 minutes, however the service should be considered ‘at risk’ throughout the whole maintenance window.
All customers with Powerhost e-mail domains hosted on this server will be affected throughout this work.
