APNIC DNS Service

Description

A firewall configuration update inadvertently blocked incoming DNS queries from Cloudflare. This caused service timeouts and inability to resolve APNIC managed zones for users only relying on Cloudflare’s DNS resolvers.

We apologize for the loss of facilities and any inconvenience caused. Should you require assistance in dealing with any problems arising from this outage, please contact the APNIC Helpdesk.
