Don't blame Baptiste, it is a difficult topic. There's good reason why we're the one of the only production-quality protocols in the world that support hybrid metrics. (There's IGRP, not sure about IS-IS.) It might be interesting to write up everything we've learnt on the subject, but that's more work than just an off-the-cuff comment on a mailing list. > Secondly, I was also hoping for an extended example of why diversity helps > on longer paths as per my first email.
