I have a question regarding the routing architecture of non-MILNET networks
in the Internet.  What is the routing architecture in the rest of the Internet??
On the MILNET we are critically dependant on the DCA Mailbridge core gateways.
As some of you may have experienced in traversing the MILNET they have been
having a lot of problems over the last year.

I can't imagine that the MILNET is more complex then the rest of the INTERNET
but I haven't heard of any major problems on NFS-NET.

Can someone please explain how routing is handled on NFS-NET for example??

Is everything statically routed? or are dynamic routing protocols used etc??


Thanks in advance,
