Didn't we move away from those telecom trunks some time ago?

Those two networks are resiliently directly connected, the issue was what one of them was advertising to the other rather than connectivity issues.
Ah well!

Re: BT admits DNS outage at weekend
So, not so much fat fingers as a not properly tested failover mechanism?

Re: BT admits DNS outage at weekend
I'll keep that one in mind next time I hose the network by accidentally bridging the wrong interface... :-P
The sequence in which my fingers fell on the keyboard was merely a series of unfortunate events, sir!

Re: BT admits DNS outage at weekend
Wasn't a typo or trunking the wrong VLAN, it was a mistake highlighted by 'a series of unfortunate events'. In itself it would've been okay.
