This is what we received from Windstream this morning regarding the outage:

"Worklog Update: Hello, if you are receiving this message, your Windstream trouble ticket was associated to a known network event. At this time, the issue has been resolved and your services should be restored. A future planned core link had an inconsistant ISIS metric that temporarily rerouted many PE BGP sessions causing VPN route reflectors to bounce, inet-bgp session to drop and large amounts of packet loss. The configuration was corrected and the outage was resolved. If there are any further issues please contact Windstream Enterprise Repair at xxx-xxx-xxxx and reference your ticket number. Thank you."

Any other info available yet?  We’ve asked our account team, but nothing yet.  Curious that MPLS is the problem given that they had the previous MPLS meltdown back in November.
