Re: NTT handing packets to Reliance (Flag Telecom) in California for BSNL block

Hello Christopher



Thanks for pointing out SMW4 cut as reported here -
http://www.renesys.com/blog/2012/06/smw4-break-on-south-asia.shtml


As far as I see it is likely not linked to issue. I guess it is still some
bad routing issue rather then impact of cable cut since I have seen similar
issues in past (last few months).




Thanks.
