Do you have a DDTS I can reference?
want to lose money (accounting) are forced to upgrade to 12.0(25)S*. I guess they want to force all "conservative" ISPs to jump over the 12.0(22)S "barrier".
I agree that Cisco should actually take more serious ownership of these issues within a customers network. They're selling us these software/hw and claiming that we can obtain a particular SLA level. Yet they can't seem to add in some code that says if (ifc->in_bps > ifc->phy_speed || ifc->out_bps > ifc->phy_speed) { crash_router(); } If they added this code, they'd find these bugs in their labs instead of in our networks. - jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared () puck nether net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
