[outages] VoIP Innovations Outage

[David Thompson]

I never said it was entirely under attack but a portion of it is. Whomever
it is that’s initiating these attacks is actually doing measurable damage
to the economy of the US in lost business, or delays. I don’t know about
you but I’d consider that an attack against a portion however small of our
national infrastructure.

Right... because one VoIP provider getting DDOS'ed means that the entire
national phone system is under attack. That would be the equivalent of some
kid smashing a Bell-owned payphone back in the 1990's. It causes a denial
of service for would-be users of that phone, but it's not like the entire
phone network goes down with it.

I wonder when the FCC is going to step in here and force VI to build a more
robust network or just pull their license to operate altogether? Eventually
this starts to become a matter of national security as basically our
national phone system is under attack by possibly foreign agents.

Update to their public ticket on this:

   - *3/16/2016 11:42:00 AM -- by RandyS*


   -
      We are aware that the VI network has again been under DDoS attack and
      that inbound and outbound calling and other VI services have
been affected.
      Many of you voiced concern over lack of updates on this ticket. We are
      concerned with the possibility that the perpetrator(s) of this
attack! may
      have access to public ticket updates and have therefore chosen
to limit the
      information we put herein. Please know that we have made significant
      changes to prevent this and are continuing to address even this latest
      attack. We are not able to share additional information at this
time due to
      the aforementioned concerns. We will provide details and include
an RFO at
      a later date.

This has been discussed on the voip_operators-group listserv, too.  They
had issues early in March for a few days (

March 11, and now again today.

Seeing down as well. Inbound calls are working some of the time, but many
are dropping after the line is answered. Getting nothing from their web
site either - time outs.

Inbound calling through VoIP Innovations appears to be down, as is their
backoffice website, and their toll free number for support. I have no
further details.
