A video-streaming Web site uses 32-bit integers to count the number of times each video has been played. In anticipation of some videos being played more times than can be represented with 32 bits, the Web site is planning to change to 64-bit integers for the counter.

Which of these best describes the fault tolerance of routing on the Internet Choose 1 answer?
