I need someway to generate RSS feeds or network status...

I don't think large FNOs in South Africa allow staff to declare outages before sanitization, nor do they publish RFOs or incident reports afterwards, so all you can really do is subscribe to downdetectors business rss feed and use that as an indication of area problems with fibre L2 infrastructure, because South Africa is going the USA route of everyone going onto reddit or other forums like mybroadband/esp/zanog/downdetector to figure out if it's just us or is everyone else having a problem, since fibre network operators do not have a publicly available support lines or notification feeds for end users to query the status of the FNOs fibres running onto their property and the ISP managing their fibre have to wait for the FNOs to exceed SLA/ETRs to then ask nicely to please have a look on behalf of the client, unless you know a guy. -daniel

Hi Everyone

Quick question. Im sure the wheel has already been invented, however let me throw it out there anyway

I need someway to generate RSS feeds or network status direct from Vumatel / openserve / metro etc feeds and bring into our site so clients can see if something is down in the area

I was going to use FreshRSS unless there is an easier way to do this and also which feeds should I import directly from.

I know rocketnet are doing similar so well done to them, maybe they can share what they are doing.

Im trying to reduce the amount of tickets and call in clients when their fibre goes offline, so I want them to first check if their area is affected or not.

Any ideas would be highly appreciated

Kind Regards
