We have successfully resolved the networking issues in the US-IAD (Washington) data center. The cause was identified as a specific compute host that generated abnormal network traffic upon being powered on, which impacted the local management network and a subset of customer connectivity. Our engineering team has isolated the hardware responsible, and network stability was restored immediately.
All management services are fully operational, and the backlog of pending host jobs has been completely processed. We will continue to monitor the region to ensure ongoing stability. Please contact us at 855-454-6633 (+1-609-380-7100 Intl.), or send an email to support@linode.com for assistance.
