My ISP (for whom I consult from time to time) is looking into Layer 4 Gigabit Ethernet; he needs some idea of the quality of various switches out there. If anyone here has recommendations or experiences with such switches, please email me directly (off-list). I would be, well, not _eternally_ in your debt, but I'll stand you a drink at BSDCon. Oh, he's looking into this because, quite unexpectedly, he has become something of a miniature MAE down here in Marina Del Rey. He needs gigabit just to keep up with the traffic. -- Frank Mayhar frank@exit.com http://www.exit.com/ Exit Consulting http://store.exit.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
