Event Details
On the 4th of October at 09:45 UTC during a GX/JX network activity, an incorrect configuration was transmitted to all GX/JX Aero terminals active at that time. At 10:50 UTC, the change was rolled back. However, all GX/JX Aero terminals active during this period were disconnected from the network and were not able to re-join. Maritime and Land GX was not affected.
In collaboration with the technology and terminal suppliers, a set of procedures to be executed on the impacted terminals was provided to the VARs to recover the terminal functionality.
In the meantime, a procedure to allow recovery Over the Air (OTA) was developed, tested and put in place on the 5th from 11:48 UTC. While effective for many of the impacted terminals, coordination and technical constraints outside of Inmarsat’s control prevented full geographic and timely implementation of this solution.
The vast majority of the impacted terminals have now been recovered using the local procedure and the Over the Air (OTA) solution. Direct communication with those VARs still affected by the issue are in place to ensure clear lines of communication and to expedite recovery.
Operational measures have been implemented to avoid similar incidents in the future.
Service Affected: GX/JX (Aviation Terminals only)
Ocean Region: ALL
Reason: Configuration Change
Traffic Impact: All Aviation GX/JX terminals that were in Network between 09:45 UTC and 10:50 UTC disconnected from the GX/JX network and were unable to reacquire

Following up our latest communication regarding this event, Inmarsat in consultation with suppliers, has developed a procedure aiming to recover terminals Over the Air, which requires test and validation.
This procedure will be initially tested in the IOR region over a portion covering a small number of Central European Countries. If the procedure is successful, we expect impacted aircraft which are operating in the test area to return to normal operation. The test will be executed between 1045 and 14000 UTC. A team is in place to close monitor the network during the test window. Following the conclusion of the test and detailed analysis of the results, a further update will be provided.

Event Details
The GX/JX outage today was from 0945z-1050z. If your airplane was online and affected by the outage you might need to configure the terminals ACM back to factory default. Please test the GX/JX system in order to see if your system was affected.
Following up our latest communication regarding this event, and in consultation with our suppliers, we have established that the action to recover the affected terminals requires configuring the Terminal’s Aircraft Core Module (ACM) back to factory default. This can be achieved using the EUI tool as part of SBG (JETWAVE-23-0006, Technical Publication 0201806000048) available on Honeywell MyAerospace.com portal.
Specific part of the procedure is section 3.B.(2).(f) (and do not perform the selections in 3.B.(2).(c), 3.B.(2).(d) or 3.B.(2).(e) The latest version of the generic ACM option files are VDD-90405603-REV-DOO.zip
For support please contact your customer field engineers and /or your terminal manufacturer.
Once the terminal ACM is back to factory default settings, normal operation should resume.

Event Details
On the 29th of August at 22:22 UTC Inmarsat had a double failure on both the primary and secondary links caused the isolation of the JX SAS in Lino Lakes. This affected the delivery of traffic towards the Meet Me Point (MMP) in New York.
The traffic was restored at 03:50 UTC on 30th August when, with the support of the local staff, Inmarsat engineers managed to stop the transmission from the affected site and resumed the service from the diversity site. Restoring the traffic via Winnipeg was very time consuming due to the particular condition caused by the dual failure.
The incident was fully resolved at 09:31 UTC when the links were set back in service by the service provider and full redundancy was restored in the AOR region.
An incident investigation is in progress internally within Inmarsat and with our service provider to avoid similar occurrence in the future.

Event Details
This note is to outline the next steps in the program to introduce Inmarsat’s fourth GX satellite, Inmarsat-5 F4, into service at 56.5°E in Q1 2019, which will provide additional capacity in the busy Indian Ocean Region (IOR). This additional capacity constitutes a new ocean region, Indian Ocean West (IOW).
Inmarsat is happy to report that all the pre-requisite steps that have been taken in the program have been successful and Inmarsat is now ready to begin the final phase: full activation of commercial services over Inmarsat-5 F4 from the Inmarsat gateways at Nemea and Fucino.
The full activation of Inmarsat-5 F4 will take a few hours during the evening maintenance window (2100 UTC-2359 UTC) on 27 March 2019. Inmarsat believes that this final step in the program will be fully complete before midnight (UTC) on that day.
While there is expected to be no loss of service, this is the full activation of a commercial service over a significant number of user beams, so Inmarsat believes there will be some impact for end users after Inmarsat-5 F4 is activated; the nature of this is outlined below:
- Terminals transitioning into the IOW from the west will now acquire Inmarsat-5 F4 rather than Inmarsat-5 F1. Customers served by these terminals will see their traffic routed via the Amsterdam Meet-Me-Point (MMP) to the ARINCDirect interconnect location.
- Terminals roaming into the original IOR from the Pacific region will acquire Inmarsat-5 F1, with traffic routed via the Sydney MMP to the ARINCDirect interconnect location as has been the case since the 13 March.
- Terminals that do not need to reacquire a satellite during the activity will remain connected to Inmarsat-5 F1.
Inmarsat does not believe that there will be any service degradation during this phase. If any service impacting issues are identified we will notify you.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for being an ARINCDirect customer, and we are pleased to work with Inmarsat as they continue to improve the performance of Jet Connex. For further information or assistance, please contact ARINCDirect Aircraft Communications Technical Support at +1 410-266-2266, 1-866

Event Details
Inmarsat has issued an incident report for the following dates.
On March the 20th at 12:30 UTC was noted an issue in JX AOR with both the primary and secondary ASR9K. The issue caused the progressive increase in the BGP routing update drop. The incident affected up to the 30% of the connections. During the event, the user could have experienced high packet drop or impossibility to pass traffic. The JX terminals will have moved the service over BGAN for the duration of the problem. The incident was solved at 16:50 UTC in collaboration with Inmarsat’s manufacturer CISCO reloading the routers. CISCO collected the necessary logs to analyze the incident.
On the 26th of March at 18:00 UTC a similar occurrence was detected in the POR, also in this case the throughput dropped progressively up to 30% and the issue has been solved reloading the router at 19:58 UTC.
The analysis from CISCO identified the cause of both incident in a bug related to the up-time of the CISCO router, an audit of all routers in the network has been completed and planned reload are in progress or have been planned for the next few weeks.

To our valued Rockwell Collins ARINCDirect Customers:
This notification provides important details about Honeywell Jetwave components and its network minimum software needed to operate on the Inmarsat JX Aviation network
Honeywell has decided to make software BLv5 the network minimum for the Honeywell Jetwave Hardware. The Network Minimum is the minimum software revision required for operation of JetWave hardware on the Inmarsat JX Aviation network. BLv5 will become the Network Minimum software revision on Dec 10, 2018. If you haven’t already upgraded to Blv5, your system will not be allowed on the network on Dec 10. 2018. Please refer to Honeywell SIL D201802000042.
Please work with your OEM/MRO or Rockwell Collins ARINCDirect to upgrade the software to your Jetwave components to the latest software revision. The latest revision is BLv6.
