Hello FL-IX Members,

Between Thursday, 10 October 2019 at 11pm and Friday, 11 October 2019 at 4am, we will be replacing three 12-port 100G line cards with three 36-port 100G line cards, to make available additional 100G member ports and accommodate inter-site capacity augments.

Members currently connected on a 12-port card who do not have a second connection should expect their port to drop during that period and will be unreachable via the IX for a period of approximately 30 minutes during the window.  These members are:
Limelight
Globalnet
Gold Data
Frontier Communications
G-Core Labs

Members currently connected on a 12-port card, who also have a second connection, will generally be reachable, but should expect their port to drop for a period of approximately 30 minutes.  If you have bilateral peering sessions with these members on two IP addresses, you will see one of those two BGP sessions drop temporarily:
Stackpath
Amazon
Netflix
T-Mobile

If you have any questions, please contact noc@fl-ix.net

Regards,

Ryan Woolley
for the FL-IX Technical Committee
