Unsure as to why the forum just went down - possibly not connected - but, I was on the the phone with Rolly, and then he tried to MMS me a picture of a cat he saw in Fort Bragg halfway through the conversation. Anyway, I have a feeling the secure sockets layer intercepted a bad packet on the datagram network, essentially resulting in a faulty handshake, leaving us all in the lurch.
I couldn’t be totally sure without deeper inspection, but I’m almost 100% positive the end result was a bad trip on the blue cable which is connected to the primary public facing Brocade switch - this goes directly into the FOA community mainframe.
