 WorldCom is currently experiencing problems with the connectivity
between WCOM & AMES.  Several OC-3 trunks are affected.  The cards
interfacing to the OC-3's go into a non-forwarding state and require
manual intervention to restore service.  The impact is that peering
between the two locations is greatly impacted by the loss of
connectivity.

Overnight, a different revision of processor code was loaded (down
rev) in an attempt to stabilize the situation on the gateway switch to
AMES and the core switch.  In addition, the number of trunks in the hunt
groups were reduced in an attempt to replicate the design prior to the
expansion last weekend.

WorldCom continues to work on the issue, along with our vendor, around
the clock to correct the current deficiency.
