Got a contingency plan for men with guns showing up at your cubicle and ordering you to re-route traffic to please the government?
Section 606 of the 1934 Communications Act provides for government takeover of wired and radio communication in the event of war or "other national emergency".
I'm not saying anything will happen in the next few days. Trump's state of emergency might be just talk. It might be limited to its stated purpose. It's rare for actual disasters to happen.
You've got a disaster recovery plan (DRP), though. If it's not in the next few days, a "national emergency" problem might show up sometime down the road. Does your DRP cover it?
It's hard to imagine a technical solution. This may require the company lawyer to prepare a [Layer 8] contingency plan in advance.

You might want to mod it silly. Cubicle creatures don't make policy, they don't make contingency plans, or whatever.

When I was relegated from the lab to the cubicle, I found I no longer did much of anything.
Its damn hard work to make a meaningful sounding report of the nothing I am getting done while I am dutifully at my desk, while my tools regain idle in the lab. The corporate name for this is "leadership", while any attempts I may make to do the things I am good at would only be reported as " insubordination".
Only corporate investment executives using other peoples money or governments can afford to do things this way.
Not even as much as take a shit.
Which I could have done on the bathroom stall, which wasn't much smaller.
