    • Early Warning Signals

      If we detect a potential Cogent DNS outage or other issue before it was reported on the official status page we will send an Early Warning Signal notification to StatusGator subscribers. We can often detect issues before they are officially acknowledged by the provider, giving you a head start on resolving any potential problems.

    • Down Notifications

      Currently, down notifications are not supported by the Cogent DNS status page. That means all notifications from their page will show in the warn state. If you need better differentiation, please get in touch.

    • Warning Notifications

      Warn notifications are used when Cogent DNS is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.

    • Maintenance Notifications

      Cogent DNS does not post separate notifications for planned maintenance work so we are unable to send notifications when maintenance windows begin. If you need Cogent DNS maintenance notifications, please email us.

    • Status Messages

      When Cogent DNS posts issues on their status page, we collect the main headline message and include that brief information or overview in notifications to StatusGator subscribers.

    • Status Details

      When Cogent DNS has outages or other service-impacting events on their status page, we pull down the detailed informational updates and include them in notifications. These messages often include the current details about how the problem is being mitigated, or when the next update will occur.

    • Component Status Filtering

      Because Cogent DNS has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you whenever a particular component is down. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.
