I have a client I have on Axxess which I am monitoring from a server on IS,
about 1-2 times a week the peering goes down and its unreachable

I am posting here as the traceroute stops at a Afrihost IP

I managed to run a traceroute from the server to the client while it was down

Code:

Heya Leno! Thanks for providing this test. I don't think this is peering related because if it was, the connection would have never handed over to the Afrihost IP. Please PM me the account info as well as your to and from IP addresses, as well another trace showing a working comparison so that I can pass it onto our Team to get a definitive answer. :)
