Last night and into this morning we’ve received several customer reports about being unable to watch Netflix video.

 

Our own Netflix cache shows some kind of event Wednesday at ~4:20 pm U.S. Central where IPv6 traffic to it dropped to zero and there was a huge drop in IPv4 traffic.  Currently traffic volume this morning is just under half of normal.

 

Interestingly enough, MICE’s own two port channels to Netflix (image attached) are showing ~57% of yesterday’s volume at this time (29.3 Gbps rather than 51.15 Gbps).

 

I opened a ticket with Netflix through the Netflix cache administration portal, but wondering if anyone is receiving similar reports from customers or is aware of anything else?

 

Regards,
