If we're lucky, the Army won't damage too much as they either win or lose.
It depends on what remains functional after the fact. If there is no demand for traffic, then routes will be stable and the session will stay active. If the link fills, the session bounces as packets get dropped. It also depends on whether the person turning up that first E1 actually has much behind them and whether those people have much connectivity that doesn't require shrapnel removal. --- Wayne Bouchard web () typo org Network Dude http://www.typo.org/~web/
