Featured Panelists: Avi Freedman, Jared Mauch, and Doug Madory. Moderator: John Kristoff.
Since there have been computer networks there have been network outages. Ask any network operator to conjure up a memorable network outage and it likely won't take them any effort at all. This session looks back at a few noteworthy networks outages from Internet history with individuals who were there to provide a truly unique perspective and look back. Want to hear from one of original AS 7007 operators? Want to know what it was like to coordinate a global response to the Slammer/Sapphire worm? Perhaps you've been reading about governments "shutting down" their Internet, but don't really know what that means or what the effect truly is? If you like a good war story, we have the panel for you. There will be plenty of time for Q&A and a chance for some of you to share your own 30-second war story with the NANOG community.
