It probably "clouds-the-issue" and potentially confuses but for the last year+ I've attempted to keep a record of published (VM H&S and service page) faults in Brighton area, and tracking various estimated dates etc.
You can find my notes here > Brighton VM Problems
A number of utilisation issues appear to be co-dependent on Cat C re-segmentation but not surprisingly we the customers are not automatically informed when a F00 reference is formally closed or specifically which one relates to a particular Cat C reseg. As each CMTS could have 8 or more nodes and Brighton has 17 CMTS chassis (3 of which - brig15/16/17 are
newgen Cisco 10012 DOCSIS 3 compliant) then naturally some of the listed faults may already be closed as equally there may be a number of faults that haven't yet been published on VM forums!
