Of course, I was half-joking, but why only one Gigaswitch? Why not two, for redundancy, as is implemented at Pennsauken? With a backup FDDI ring? And I assume, spare power supplies and processors? Avi
Which begs a question: why use a Giga-switch at all? With the head of line blocking feature/problem and scalability only to full duplex 100 mbps is a Gigaswitch something that should be used in a next generation NAP? I'm not suggesting it's intended to be the next generation NAP, but you'd think that they would want to use the latest switches and technology available, rather than continue down the FDDI road.
