Belgium / Info / Issue / Netherlands / outage / Solved /
Dear customers,
We are currently experiencing an outage with internet services (traffic drops). Our Network Operations team is investigating the outage.
Further details on the affected areas and an estimated duration will be released as soon as possible.
EDIT 19:40*: Our DNS-servers were the target of a concerted DDOS-attack for approximately one hour (18:00 – 19:00), involving large amounts of traffic and major network saturation. At this time the attack has cleared up and we are investigating further.
EDIT 30/8 20:35*: It seems like we’re being attacked again since a few minutes. Our Network Operations team is investigating. More updates will follow soon.
EDIT 20:45*: The attack was mitigated after some actions from our Network Operations team. It was smaller than last time, but still very much able to knock out our DNS-servers. We’re working to restore all services.
EDIT: 21:15*: All services are restored.
EDIT: 31/8 5h05 We experienced other waves of DDoS attacks between 30/8 22h20 and 31/08 05h05. For the moment, the attacks are fully mitigated.
We apologize for the inconveniences.
Best regards
The edpnet team
