Mohammed, AT&T is working with the vendor on a fix. It has to be compatible with all other protocols and services running in this network. This is not a small network and so these things take a bit of time. It will be done, but perhaps not fast enough for you. There's certainly no telling whether the other carrier you reference is using the exact same platform as AT&T, or services. We're cautious about these things.

If you are experiencing drops or slow traces, only through the core, there is an issue with excessive de-prioritization of ICMP control message with a particular router type (vendcor) in the core. End to end data flow has not seemed to be affected but trace and ping core latencies are looking very wierd. I've been asking customers to use trace only for path detail and to use end to end ping for any performance data
Problem happen for week and make troubleshoot difficult. Please call Avici Support for download the new Software. Other Carrier have upgrade already. _________________________________________________________ Share your artistic, creative and literary work on My Corner with many, many others! http://www.maktoob.com/
