Received this alert from Andrews and Arnold; although this is not about AA.

LINX, one the main peering points in the UK has problems, and this is affecting various bits of the internet.

Update 23 Mar 2021 15:42:58 At the moment, we are seeing no traffic over our LINX ports in both London datacentres. Instead traffic has moved to other interconnects that we have. We are seeing increase of traffic on our transit links and other peering links.

Update 23 Mar 2021 15:51:47 We're seeing some traffic come back on our LINX port in Telehouse

Update 23 Mar 2021 15:52:18 We're seeing some traffic come back on our LINX port in Equinix LD8

Update 23 Mar 2021 15:55:01 Things are starting to get back to normal.

Update 23 Mar 2021 16:00:47 The traffic graphs on LINX's portal show the drop of traffic: https://portal.linx.net/ (The drop at 13:30 looks is probably a data collection problem rather than an actual drop of traffic.)

Resolution: The Internet Exchange Point 'LINX' had an outage affecting many parts of the UK's internet traffic.
