Since there is very little "unique" network equipment in the world now, just about everyone buys equipment from the same vendors. So the question is, Can we learn anything from Citibank's experience. Is there anything about their continuing problems which may be used to improve general network reliability?
I know of at least one major bank that drops the following to their ATMs: - Frame/ATM Frac T1 - ISDN BRI dial backup - 9600 baud X.25 analog dial backup backup If all that fails on a wide scale, you have much larger issues to contend with. Note that there are still a few vendors of ATM switching hardware: Lucent/Ascend Nortel/Bay Cisco/Stratacom Alcatel Marconi/FORE Hitachi NEC Fujitsu ... And this doesn't include all that legacy hardware out there already. *cough cough* Newbridge *cough cough*. --msa
