Are we?
When 25 Broadway failed, approximately 1% of the global Internet routing table also disappeared. Which I would guess qualifies it as a "major" hub.
But does that mean that X number of sites were unreachable, or that there were simply Y number fewer routes to X sites? (Excluding those *directly* affected, ie; those *in* 25 Broadway)
From what point did 1% of the routing table disappear? Was the same visable from multiple, diverse points? I expect that from some perspectives, 100% of the routing table disappeared and some places didn't even see a blip. --bill
