The failure of a device to run as advertised or the failure of an operation to 
select the an appropriate device.

Operators that want to conserve resources without cause are welcome to run 
their routers inside glass boxes in museums.  Routers do work. Packets cause 
that work. That work is not an attack unless it is *disproportionate*. That is 
not shown for nearly any of the cases in this document.
