So, if the packet has made it past the first mile and has "entered" the core then chances are high that the packet will safely get across till the exit in the core. Sure once it gets off the core, then all bets are off on whether it will get dropped or not. However, the key point is that the core usually does not drop too many packets - the probability of drops are highest in the access side. Is this correct? Glen
