As many of you will be aware there are wide spread problems on the LINX foundry LAN.
This will be causing additional latency and route instability. This is out of the control of any at XILO and will be affecting most of the UK Internet population.
The scale of the problem can be seen at https://www.linx.net/pubtools/trafficstats.html?stats=day
Any problems that traceroute over 195.66.224.0/23 are directly connected to this.

Update from LINX:
A crashed traffic manager (this is an element of the forwarding complex on an MLX linecard) is suspected to be the cause of the outage. This is being escalated as a P1 with the vendor.
In the meantime, we are taking steps to move traffic off the crashed card to a backup.
