I built one tunnel from an AT&T T1 circuit in Tennessee to a site in California that was terminated by Cox. This particular tunnel is currently carrying 10k byte packets.

For what it's worth, this is a bridged segment. And, there are 2 other endpoints (on the internet) that are part of this network. I didn't miss your point, I simply said it is possible to do and it's not difficult at all. -- ******************************************************************** * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/ * Network Engineering * * http://www.wispa.org/ * WISPA Board Member * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * ******************************************************************** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
