perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["David J. Chaffin" <>]

Kate,

at least several of those sites are up.

simplest thing to try: it looks like you can see DNS but your route can't see the internet.

does wget www.google.com work?

could be a problem some places: your resolver is favoring ipv6 (edit gai.conf), but it's failing a bunch of ipv4 sites also.
