Dallas Latency / Potential Network Attack

[VOIPoTim]

This looked like it had subsided earlier, but has returned.

Here is an example of what we're seeing internally:

1 81.83.84ae.static.theplanet.com (174.132.131.129) 12.887 ms 12.961 ms 13.026 ms
2 e1.fe.5746.static.theplanet.com (70.87.254.225) 0.378 ms 0.433 ms 0.494 ms
3 92.fe.5746.static.theplanet.com (70.87.254.146) 1544.017 ms 1544.252 ms 1544.461 ms

It's very intermittent and one trace will be all less than 1ms and then this. The Planet assures us they are working to clear this up as quickly as possible.

We don't know at this point, but it's potentially related to some type of network attack with effects flowing over into other customers.
