Hi,

Between approximately 2105Z and 2120Z tonight there was a total loss
of IPv6 connectivity for customers on the following servers:

cosmo
dunkel
kahlua
obstler
urquell

This was because our transit provider did some (planned) maintenance
involving switching off a router, and the above servers were not
correctly set up to have a redundant IPv6 default gateway.

Connectivity was restored when alerts were received and a working
IPv6 default gateway was configured.

It appears that the incorrect settings were used when the above
servers were switched over to use interface bonding two weeks ago,
to provide layer 2 resilience.

Unaffected:

barbar
bellini
curacao
faustino
kwak

The correct redundant IPv6 gateway is now configured on all servers.

Please accept my apologies for this error, and the resulting
disruption it may have caused you.

Cheers,
Andy
