At http://ext2.mfsdatanet.com/MAE/west.map.html you will find a connection map dated Sept 18.

It was incorrect for some reason, today's map is at the end of this message.

I should add that CERFnet has TWO routers on Gigaswitches: one of each side of the MAE ( NASA and MFS-San Jose).

ESNET seems to have a router on the MFS side . The CERFnet router you mention is on the MFS-San Jose side as well. The IP address (134.24.9.115) you refer to is the SMDS interface to the CIX on that router. The MAE-FDDI side address of that router 198.32.136.55.

What you report seems to suggest congestion in the switch at the MFS side ...

Yup, one of the OC3c circuits was down, the other was full. It's all better now!

If you can share more information about the end to end path you were testing, I could shed more light on it.
