Looks like CINX had some connectivity problems today with IS and MWEB peering links, can still access Google Cache Servers via google.cinx.net.za

Mweb CINX (196.223.22.32) where we access the Mweb based Akamai services
is still down

I'm not aware of any outages at CINX. Remember however, that Akamai continuously monitors the performance of their network and can redirect users to other nodes to spread load or improve performance at any time. This is not neccessarilly indicative of a failure. :)
 
Thanks Ambo - still waiting for the Mweb CINX link

IP Address still no available for Mweb CINX 196.223.22.32
What do you mean by 'available'? It is quite common for the IPs used at IXPs to not be reachable or pingable beyond the routers connected directly to the Internet exchange. I can promise you that Mweb is not down at CINX. They are carrying a significant amount of traffic at CINX right now.

What are you trying to do? What do you think is broken?

I'm not quite sure what you are getting at with this list of reverse DNS entries?
