Verizon MPLS service in Anchorage

You have products like a cell on wheels. A container containing a phone switch and a mobile cell, easily installable. You place it at the center of the disaster zone and all mobile phones start to work... if you are worried about congestion, then only the "right" sims are registered/enabled. -

How do you define infrastructure addresses in your network? Ok, probably router loopbacks are some of them. Router LANs also. But what about addresses used on WAN (or LAN p2p) links that are used for interconnections with customers? What about addresses used for public servers (dns, mail, web,
