Hi again from Network World...
We're now looking into a story on how Egypt may have restored service -- di=
d they bring up all routes at once? Stagger the re-introduction of routes s=
o as not to overwhelm routers? Any specific ISPs brought up before others a=
nd why? ie, Noor and the stock exchange brought up before any others, etc.
Any thoughts from NANOG on how best -- or worst -- to restore Internet serv=
ice following, reportedly, the largest government-mandated blackout ever? A=
lso, are any of you in touch with any Egyptian ISPs and sharing this type o=
f information? Or hearing any "war stories" from over there?
Thanks again, and best regards,
