There are currently power issues in the 511 building affecting the MICE infrastructure there. The MICE Ridgeview switch and route server are still operational. -- Jay Hanke, President South Front Networks jayhanke@southfront.io Phone 507-327-2398 https://southfront.io/ <https://southfront.io/path.html>
We’re seeing this weird traffic spike on one of our MICE interfaces towards our Elk River datacenter. I also see it towards other customers when I look at the MICE cacti instance. Anyone else notice this? We’ve shutdown our connection in Elk River for the time being.

When the switch came back, there was some traffic flooding. Unknown unicast flooding, I assume. Jeremy cleared the MAC table, which made the switch happy. (I suppose that caused it to re-learn in hardware or something?) It's been stable since 3:33 PM or so. You should be able to re-enable things now.
