Hi Matt (and other helpful posters off list), Yes, makes sense. I'm told this pops up twice a month, so opps, clearly I need to spend more time reading and learning! :) Thanks to the person who pointed out the PTR rec suggests that the impacted resource might be more west than I realised. I confess I don't know the .us very well at all. D On 3/11/2012 6:43 p.m., Matthew Petach wrote:
Hi Don, based on your mtr output, there's no loss to the end destination; one router along the path showing loss that does not continue to affect the rest of the path simply means the cpu on that router is a bit too busy to respond to icmp messages; but there's 0% loss beyond it, which means it's doing its primary job of forwarding packets just fine. Thanks, and have a wonderful weekend! Matt
