[AusNOG] Monitoring ULL drops on AAPT MBE connections

[Matt Perkins]

I would not hold your breath. We have been waiting for ipv6 for 6 months and remote black whole triggering for 11 months. Then to be told everything is on hold after TPG buyout.

This is all fine, except that AAPT do not correct the issue until you log a fault. Or worse, the second ULL drops at a later time and takes the connection completely offline.
