With all of the problems with MAE-EAST.....
Any plans from anyone to create a ATM exchange point in the DC area?
Given the latency we've seen over some ATM backbones, I certainly hope not. I agree with Paul that MTU sizes in gigabit ethernet make it very attractive as a next step, I'd certainly be interested in seeing anything anyone has on fragmentation related delays going from a large MTU switched environment to a small MTU switched environment though. Overall, I've been less-than-pleased with latency when I've been transited that way. Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
