With N x GigE, what sort of [im]balance is there over the N lines?
a few links overloaded, which other practically doesn't carry traffic.
Of course, I'd hope that individual heavy pairs would establish private interconnects instead of using public switch fabric, but I know that's not always { an option | done | ... }.
If A and B exchange say 200 Mbps of traffic, moving to a PNI is for sure a option, but if both have GigE connections to the shared infrastruture with spare capacity, both can expect the IX to handle that traffic. /Jesper -- Jesper Skriver, jesper(at)skriver(dot)dk - CCIE #5456 Work: Network manager @ AS3292 (Tele Danmark DataNetworks) Private: FreeBSD committer @ AS2109 (A much smaller network ;-) One Unix to rule them all, One Resolver to find them, One IP to bring them all and in the zone to bind them.
