I think you have to be a girl to get this one at first. ;-) It just means going in and out the same way, in the shape of a hairpin. A hairpin looks sort of like a tall V character on its side. > Tromboning? (can't find satisfactory definition from CCO) Think of what the horn part of a trombone looks like, kind of loopy. > Is hairpining=tromboning? Could be. I couldn't find a decent definition of tromboning either. I found this use of the word, but it may have a more generic meaning too: "Connecting a service node to a legacy class 4 switch leads to cost-intensive tromboning, as each call is routed in a loop from the switch to the service node and back, using four switch interfaces for one call instead of just two."
