It really sucks to hear that the performance didn't improve on Trio. Flowspec is /the/ way to make DoS mitigation possible for companies not big enough to buy a boatload of edge capacity, it's too bad that it's not implemented by anyone but Juniper, and Juniper is letting it rot. (It's also too bad that, AFAIK, nLayer is the only transit provider that actually offers it to customers.) I think this is one of the things that the people building on top of OpenFlow can use to wipe the floor with classical vendors (a good MPLS-TE implementation being the other thing). -- Darius Jahandarie _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
