anc rerouted for over six months
anchorage datacenter has been rerouted to Seattle (1000mi away) for over 6 months. As a user of the CF DNS and a user of the internet, please fix the ANC stuff. Pretty sure it doesn’t take 6 months to fix something
S1000 miles away
S:NotLikeThis:
SI get it that the network is large, but rerouting to 1000mi away
SFor over 6 months
SWould love a good answer ^^ !
S:bibicat:
Aim not an employee, however I am unsure if you're going to get help here on this, im sure the team is aware as the status page reflects status, it is such a small pop it may not be top priority
SOk, but rerouting to Seattle?? Why not Vancouver or something closer
Athat much depends on a variety of factors including your own isp's backbone and peering arrangements
S
Sits up..
Sis this real
Astill depends, may not be ready to serve traffic
Ajust because the unicast address pings it still may not have the anycast ips that serve websites routed towards it
SNot really I ran a trace route and the GCI (Network Provider) is alive
Aare there anycast ips announced from the pop?
A(you wont be able to know unless you peer with cf)
SIdk
SI saw some he.net stuff
SMaybe
SThe thing is please stop being lazy cloudflare I want my 10ms back 
SWhich employee rerouted ANC and forgot about it!!
Sbeen more than 8 months
Sidk what type of bomb dropped on the data center
SIn 8 months you could’ve opened 90 more data centers
Aanc is not a big market :bingShrug:
Sanc serves as a data center for other locations too
SNot only anchorage uses the anchorage data center
Afrom what i can see there are no active metals in anchorage
Athat may be why its rerouted
Ai mean the metal probably exists physically, but none serving traffic
Anever 
Amy traceroute tool can't even see anchorage
A
Anono, like ent traceoute api
Atraceroute from cf to you

Interact with Cloudflare's products and services via the Cloudflare API
Aenterprise acc feature only sadly
Aoh yeah
Ai had a friend make me a dash to interface with it
Ayeah
Ai got tired of that though
Anope 
A
SWe alaska residents don’t exist
SIs Alaska even real??!
SI’m pissed of ANC being rerouted because GCI’s DNS has worse uptime than my microwave
Awhere is your nearest 8.8.8.8 pop?
SSeattle too probably
Aah rip, guess thats the nature of most alaskan traffic
