From: Curtis Villamizar <curtis () ans net> If we hold BBN to the same standards that the telco industry uses to come up with 99.999%, BBN was up but "a few customers" experienced a localized outage. This would be brushed off the same as the Illinious AT&T fire at the POP that took out much of the Chicago suburbs for about a week. It doesn't count against the 99.999%. (Otherwise AT&T owes Chicago a couple thousand years of flawless service:).
I remember my complaint on the IETF list some years back, when NSFnet/ANS would routinely tout high availability, by eliminating any link outages from their report, as they were not under its control ... or route flaps greater than 5 minutes, for unknown reasons. ;-) WSimpson () UMich edu Key fingerprint = 17 40 5E 67 15 6F 31 26 DD 0D B9 9B 6A 15 2C 32 BSimpson () MorningStar com Key fingerprint = 2E 07 23 03 C5 62 70 D3 59 B1 4F 5E 1D C2 C1 A2 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
