   The entire network needs to run. Bigger computing centres have a   
   battery backup and a generator for all their machines including   
   network, but smaller offices/buildings mostly don't have that, so   
   network (including routers, switches, telephone exchanges) go down -   
   either immediately or after some minutes because the batteries are   
   only there to ensure a graceful shutdown to avoid data corruption.
