    A customer in the shared colocation environment caused a broadcast storm due to a network loop within their equipment. This resulted in a brief network disruption affecting the shared switch for rack 0508. The affected switch port has been administratively disabled to isolate the issue. Network connectivity has now been fully restored to the edge switch in rack 0508. Our team is monitoring the environment to ensure continued stability. The customer has been advised on remediation steps to prevent recurrence.
