Identified

The system seems to have stabilized and is no longer causing performance issues.

Watching

Investigating

9 months ago 2026-01-12 10:39 UTC

We are still investigating this issue. Network usage is partially impacted.

Reported

9 months ago 2026-01-11 15:00 UTC

We have observed increased load and performance issues on our main network management system. The issue appears to originate from the old DHCP system creating too many database connections.

The issue has rendered the network management web interfaces practically unusable and the authentication to the network extremely slow. This mainly impacts users trying to (re-)connect to the network.

We have performed a reboot of the old DHCP system. This seems to have resolved the issue.
