According to the MFS homepage: MAE West is interconnected with the Ames Internet Exchange, operated by NASA at the Ames Research Center. This connection is currently an OC3c circuit directly between the FDDI switches at each end. And traffic doesn't appear to have creeped above ~70Mbps on the link. The OC-3c is terminated on a Gigaswitch at both Ames and MFS and is delivered via MFS's SONET network. |} RS's are both located at Ames. Additionally, there are multiple segments |} at Ames and at MFS. What Alan said is/was right -- both of the RS boxes are at Ames. Should the link fail, the ability to communicate with the RSs will cease to exist. -jh-
