VC = Virtual Containers. Basically a way of repackaging, or adapting PDH singls to STM-1 frame. There a many different VCs, and I don't know which ones 11 and 12 are without looking them up.
Again, Sean will have to identify pst, but tli is Tony Li of Juniper
Pst is Paul Traina, formerly of Cisco and currently Juniper.
Oh that and helping beat on CEF/DFIB packet-by-packet load balancing before my last retirement.Once again, I'm at a loss as ti what CEF/DFIB stands for.
Cisco Express Forwarding/Distributed Forwarding Information Base. Former being another stupid marketing stunt while the latter being a more descriptive name. Basically it builds a full forwarding table that's downloaded to the individual linecards, freeing the RP to do what it's supposed to do, i.e. route calculationgs, and freeing network operators from the evils of cache. Some of the neat things that comes with this trick are the per-packet load balancing, per adjacency and per prefix accounting among others. -dorian
