layer 2 vs. layer 3
Kind of a weird one in a way given that FR has internally its own Layer 2 as well as [stripped down] Layer 3 ... not unlike the [very short] time when ARAPANET was routed over X.25 many moons ago. Lots of overhead by this funny layer 2 (error correction, flow control the work). On the other head, if it works ..... One thing I am curious about .... does anyone actually uses SVC with FR for use as an underlying network for IP transport? If so, I am curious as to the pros/cons especially with respect to connection establishment / tear down overhead. Regards, John Leong
