http://tinyurl.com/li0s Neither is really an 'order' so much as a 'suggestion'.. either way, its kind of inappropriate to make this suggestion without knowing how each operator can or could apply a fix... that is my opinion atleast.
The thing is - DHS told us so is the new favourite excuse for operators to refuse to fix anything that is/or could be broken. Over last two weeks I have heard the "We have implemented the DHS order" as the excuse from - Transport company whose gige transport went from 5ms to 700ms rtt. - Enterprise IP provider who filtered everything but ICMP/TCP/UDP while offering multicast services. - Two different IP backbones as the explanation of ICMP echo-requests being dropped (the issue was that in reality they were selling multiple 100Mbit/sec connections from 155 link). Of course, the moment one hears the "DHS told us" line, nothing else can be done. Alex
