Any plans from anyone to create a ATM exchange point in the DC area?Given the latency we've seen over some ATM backbones, I certainly hope not. I agree with Paul that MTU sizes in gigabit ethernet make it very attractive as a next step,
Our nets *Scream*.
I'd certainly be interested in seeing anything anyone has on fragmentation related delays going from a large MTU switched environment to a small MTU switched environment though. Overall, I've been less-than-pleased with latency when I've been transited that way.
Uh... Doctor , it hurts when I do this. Doctor: So don't do that! Hint, it is *pretty* foolish to run mixed MTU's on switched fabric. *Most* people on ATM exchanges run with common MTU's.
