I swapped the IP addresses for Best and TLG yesterday in preparation for disconnecting Best's DS3/FDDI connection to MAE-West in favor of TLG's 100Mbps FDDI link. Some TLG San Jose to world traffic may travel over the link until the DS3 is converted to a point to point link. It's not really a lot of traffic. The Alternet hops are just the transit hops to other networks. I am sending out an email to all peers with the updates today, just was too busy to do it sooner :-/ Karl
