[AusNOG] Crashes all round on Tuesday

[Ross Wheeler]

I had several links went down at 10:00 (give or take a few seconds) - 
well, not mine so much as my upstream - and it's been blamed on this 
issue.

Various claims of lots of fibre links down due to clock errors; that it 
was like "grand central station" at the various datacentres with everyone 
trying to get stuff back online; that recent patches to various cisco 
equipment specifically to mitigate this issue - didn't save 'em; and that 
possibly telstra 4G networks are still largely inop in Sydney?

Anyone else experience anything like this? Surprised that a great many of 
the recent "widespread" network issues don't seem to make it to mainstream 
media - are they becoming complacent? Isn't it "newsworthy" any more? Is 
it just too technical for todays society (and saying anything about it 
just makes peoples eyes glaze over?)
