- The peering session between Network A and Network B is traversing the network of FDDI switches at the IX, as the networks are not peering across a FDDI switch that they have in common, and the links are congested.
Other things one can do :
- Peering session can be moved to a FDDI switch that the two networks have in common.
The others, as you've observed are reasonably fixable problems, given inclination, but this last problem is non-trivial to fix, because of the physically distributed nature of some interconnects. I'm not yet certain as to whether ATM replacement of FDDI is the right solution to this problem. -dorian
