Title: Re: How relable does the Internet need to be?
The question in all cases is what is the level of service acceptable to regulators and emergency services coordinators? Clearly there are problems of both power and call routing which must be addressed. It's unlikely NANOG is the forum for specifying standards in this area. It is similarly unlikely the IETF is the appropriate body, though it may be a place to figure out how to meet the requirements specifications of some other body.
