I have a question regarding multi-homing, mostly from stub network's operational point of view. My big question is: what kind of failures do you usually see from your providers? Link down? Link up, but withdraw some routes? Link up, no route change, but blackholing partial or all traffic? Anything else?
Two more failure modes: Link up, receiving all routes but provider stops propagating your announcement outward. Link up but unusably high packet loss to some or all destinations.
