Hi,

I got a mail that Facebook was leaving NLIX. Maybe someone botched the script so
they took down all BGP sessions instead of just NLIX and now they can't access
the equipment to put it back... :-)

That's an interesting theory. Once upon a time I saw a billion dollar company suffer
a significant outage after enabling EVPN on a remote site. Took down the entire
backbone, including access to the site.

Thanks,

Sabri
