Hi,

There was an intermittent network outage on curacao between about
1839 and 1930 today, which appears to have been caused by a customer
being attacked. A large amount of random small packet traffic
overwhelmed the conntrack table of the server. I was on the train
during the entirety of this event and managed to end it by turning
off the customer's network temporarily.

Cheers,
Andy
