Simply put, there are multiple paths between Chicago and  Sydney. So a  
failure in the US, can be packet rerouted. If you want  to compare with  
MPLS, it is just a circuit versus datagram argument.  Which I will not  
get into because that would be way off  topic.

Dino,
this is a different issue and unrelated with the stuxnet topic.
 
Henry Kissinger once said: It is difficult to applaude and shrug the  
shoulders at the same time.
I must admit that being not convinced is also due to my lack of  
understanding intellectually.
 
I guess,  Dima and I have in common that we do not seek solutions  within 
the frame given by DV and this
awful prefix aggregation. But I am against that in such a way that I am  
against aggregated nodes (with internal topologies), no matter whether you 
call  them ASes or peer groups or anything else.
 
But Dima will certainly explain his concept
 
Heiner
