Listen, it's 55 degrees in miami and my brain obviously suffers below
60. It will be meshed not messed, both network wise and physical
fibre wise. Obviously as they add nodes (or if they add) it will not
be a fully meshed physical design.
I'd also like to know what other considerations are important.
+Is it important not to have a NAP node in a hurricane evacuation
zone? (ie perhaps even on the water).
-The blding can be built to withstand the hurricane however when
their is a hurricane in a certain geographical "box" the police block
the roads denying access
-In miami it is East of US1 that is the evac zone
+Is a single node NAP acceptable.
-A failure would mean likely reroute to another domestic NAP so
perhaps this is acceptable.
-Does this make too great a target for activists with an agenda?
+What are the most important features desired?
-Customer visibility and provisioning
-private vs public peering design etc
etc
