see who backs down first.
Ok, as I understand it, Level3 can get Cogent connectivity back simply be restoring the peering that they suspended, right?

I mean, Cogent can pay someone to route to L3 or L3 can fix what they did on their side, they have no need to go anywhere but their own routers, right?
