Dear Colleagues, Just to provide you with a brief update, as we also just shared a quick update with the colleagues of DGCONNECT based on our observations this week. So far, we are not aware of any major issues caused by the increased load. You may have seen that some of our colleagues have also been looking at data collected by our Routing Information System and they also conclude that there are no significant changes (https://labs.ripe.net/Members/emileaben/internet-stability-in-times-of-coron... <https://labs.ripe.net/Members/emileaben/internet-stability-in-times-of-corona>). We did point out the issue of site access, as it was mentioned here, and also flagged that issues might arise from disruptions in the supply-chain and global logistics that our industry depend on, also for instance for timely deliver of spare parts. In return, they pointed us to an earlier statement by BEREC,which lays out some of the efforts taken by the national regulatory agencies to monitor the evolution of traffic patterns. The same document also makes reference to the exceptions granted under the Open Internet Regulation with regards to traffic management measures that networks are allowed to take to prevent or mitigate network congestion. The press release can be found here https://berec.europa.eu/eng/document_register/subject_matter/berec/press_rel... <https://berec.europa.eu/eng/document_register/subject_matter/berec/press_releases/9237-press-release-coping-with-the-increased-demand-for-network-connectivity> Regards, Marco Hogewoning RIPE NCC
