[VicPiMakers SG] Facebook: We Disconnected Our Data Centers From the Internet

[Craig Miller]

Deid,

What a bunch of hand waving with Network jargon. It doesn't really say what
the problem was other than the Data Centres became disconnected.

As Greg can tell you, many places run automation on their networks (like
Ansible) and with it, it is easy to push a wrong configuration on many,
many network devices. Recovering from a bunch of misconfigured routers that
are no longer passing traffic, can be time consuming.

I'll ask at my next IPv6 call if anyone has any insights as to what
_actually_ went wrong.

Craig...
