Completed -
The maintenance was successfully completed without unforeseen issues or outages within the announced maintenance window. Our 100G/400G aggregation switching platform is now running on the latest vendor-recommended software version (Juniper Networks), addressing minor bugs observed recently. Full redundancy and capacity have been restored.

Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.

Scheduled -
During the specified timeframe, we will perform necessary maintenance on our Edge Routing Point of Presence (PoP) at Interxion FRA8. This PoP handles traffic for all dataforest services across all datacenters. The maintenance is carried out on our aggregation switches to ensure stable operation and address minor software bugs.
Thanks to our network redundancy and the sequential maintenance of switches, no outages are expected. However, the availability of the following 100G and 400G uplink ports will be reduced:
- Direct Peering (IXP): Apple, ByteDance (TikTok), Digital Ocean, Fastly, i3D.net, LWLcom, Microsoft, Netflix, Telefonica (o2)
- Private Peering (PNI): Amazon, Cloudflare, Hetzner
- Public Peering: MegaIX, GNM-IX
- Transit: Inter.link
- Additionally, 40G / 100G / 400G Dedicated Server customers located at this datacenter are required to use LACP to avoid an outage
Traffic with these networks will reroute over alternative paths, which may result in slightly increased latency. To avoid packet loss, affected BGP sessions will be gracefully shut down at the beginning of the maintenance, and each device will only be touched once it is fully drained of traffic. The total bandwidth capacity of the dataforest network and our DDoS protection services will remain sufficient throughout the maintenance.
We would like to point out that a residual risk always exists during such maintenance activities due to potential software issues or unforeseen circumstances. Should any unforeseen issues arise, such as a disruption to our network availability, we will immediately update this status post. As a precautionary measure, the maintenance is scheduled during a period of low traffic to minimize potential disruptions.
