Clarification here: 1/8 was never on the EDS backbone. Was only used locally in one site, as far as I can determine. On Feb 4, 2009, at 7:29 PM, Randy Bush wrote:
I see you've never done business with EDS. They've been using 1/8 for over a decade. Also, over the years, I've seen a number of universities and supercomputing facilities number nodes out of 1/8 -- however, those systems are never supposed to see the internet anyway, so they could technically number them however they want. Personally, I've used 1/8 in lab setups.
brilliant! i think all my competitors should do that.
