The Internet routed around much of the failure, but there seem to be only a few individual networks which are unreachable. The generator
I know that MFN/AboveNet is quite willing to provide temporary peering/transit services in the US and Europe for networks affected by this action. I suspect most other providers are offering similar help. I would hope that the Internet community could get these networks back online in fairly short order to help keep communications flowing. For those networks completely offline, can those with phone contacts pass this message along to them via voice lines?
I don't have a breakout of individual networks, so I can't give you contact information for the networks offline. I've just been following total networks, ASNs, etc. In particular Geoff's great graphs http://www.telstra.net/ops/bgp/bgp-active.html It appears a few hundred route announcements disappeared from the total of 104,400 routes. In other words, less that 1% of the routes. Telstra may be located on the other side of the globe, but I'll take data where I can find it. I can't tell how many are single-homed networks and servers located in directly impacted area of New York, and how much is due to a combination of failures in the area affecting both the primary, backup or alternate facilities.
