Network Operations reports that associated communication partners are reporting some restoration of service and operation at a degraded state. We will continue to monitor the situation as work continues. At this time, we are seeing connectivity to CRES (res.cisco.com) for encryption services and administration portal (https://res.cisco.com/admin), and alerts for associated services still appear sporadic. We will post information as it is provided, and hope that this positive restoration continues to progress. We appreciate your patience and understanding while this issue is addressed.
