HE having issues doesn't surprise me ...
my observations in this particular incident were that the RISQ peering was up until around 8am this morning at QIX, HE was possibly collateral damage as they, and we, were learning AS376 via QIX. We have a private peering with AS376 and it is down as well. I don't want to start rumours however RISQ may simply be having a technical problem of some sort. I guess time will tell
