Identified
The underlying Direct Connect issue in the AP South region has been resolved.
Cisco engineering teams are validating service stability and preparing to return the affected Mumbai and Chennai services to normal operation.

Investigating
We are investigating a third-party cloud provider network issue affecting Cisco Secure Connect services in the India region.
Customers connecting through the Mumbai and Chennai locations may experience connectivity issues or service degradation for some Secure Connect services, including private access functionality.
To mitigate impact, traffic is being rerouted to alternate locations where available, and affected services in Mumbai and Chennai have been taken out of rotation. Customers reconnecting should use the Any Location connect feature so traffic can be routed to an available location. Connections that continue to use the impacted Chennai or Mumbai locations may continue to fail.
Our engineering teams are actively investigating and working with the provider to restore normal service. Updates and additional details will be provided as new information becomes available.
We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.
