What's Happening?

In light of the recent DDoS attacks against several large networks, causing major disruption, we will be making configuration, topology and capacity changes to our routing infrastructure in our London 2 location.

These changes will significantly enhance our on-net DDoS mitigation capacity and will minimise the effects of any congestion in the event of a large DDoS attack.

These changes are scheduled for 10-Oct-25 from 3 - 5 AM BST.

What's the impact?

We will divert traffic away from our London 2 border routers before maintenance begins, meaning there should be little to no impact for most workloads.

Any impact experienced should be brief (less than 1 minute) while traffic is rerouted over available paths.
