Default [Resolved] Venus down - Network issues

Venus has dropped. We're working on what the issue is. It's a network issue, as both Mercury and Venus are down now.

Will report back with more info in this thread . . .

Here's the official explanation -
Quote:
We noticed our connection go down on one of our two main distribution switches. The connection to our 6509 routing switch was online the whole time, but since we didn't have a link between that and one of the distribution switches about half our network segment was in a routing loop. The 6500 wanted to route to something, but didn't have a link to route to. About 15 minutes later, the connection came back to normal. It may be a gbic that needs to be replaced. We're keeping a close eye on it.
