What I don't understand is why that has _stayed_ saturated... it seems to me that some of the big players would have rerouted their traffic by now to avoid subjecting it to this, which would also have the side effect of causing the problem to, at least for the short term, go away.
I'm interested in knowing what happened between March 6 and March 7 on the Ames FDDI ring. That's when the utilization jumped from around 60% to 90%. Also of interest is that it appears MFS stopped collecting stats late in the afternoon, with utilization around 60%, on the 6th, and didn't start collecting again until around noon on the 7th, at which time utilization is running at 90%. Anyone know what happened? mb -- Mark Boolootian <booloo@cats.ucsc.edu> (aka booloo@scruznet.com)
