[swinog] 45 Mbit/s Cisco Interface

2003-08-29 Thread Manuel Wenger
Hello everyone, we have to order a 45 Mbit/s point-to-point leased line (CLN) from Swisscom. Swisscom is asking us if we want electrical or optical interfaces.   What do you recommend? In either case, what's the exact Cisco interface model number (both eletrical and optical) for 7206 routers? I

Hi Pascal I don't consider it much harm aslong as icmp type 0,3,4,8,11,12 get through... but you still have the dilemma should they filter - I would vote no, though I see the possibilities and the strength in doing filtering in the core - it's just the lack of trust in the folks that would do

2) unacceptable, cause they no more deliver full internet access. Especially for BGP customers... For ADSL/dial-up customers, it might be acceptable, if the customer has a possibility to turn off the filters... Cheers, Viktor -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
