Hi,

   Thanks for reporting.  bx1.ny1,  one of our 6bone routers was
swapping due to memory leak in Zebra's bgpd daemon.  We've applied
patches to the daemon and should be working properly.

   In the future,  you may contact ipv6@stealth.net or noc@stealth.net
when issues arise.  In case of emergency please call 1-212-232-2020 (or
my cellular #, listed below).

   Within the next day or two I'll make sure our 6bone equipment is
monitored properly.

   Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Kind Regards,

Shrihari Pandit
