It stays this way for ever. The routing table on the firewall points nothing
at the external interface. The latency we thought was possibly another
network issue that didn't turn out to be the culprit.....now we are back to
square one.....

Subject: Re: [FW1] Traceroute questions
Does the routing table on the Firewall match what you are
experiencing when testing with Traceroute?
Does the route change, over say a 30 minute period? Ie flip to
your expected route, and then flip back?
This could happen quickly, could be one way for 30 sec then flip back, if
this were occurring, there would be routing convergence problems...
When did you become aware of the latency issue, always there,
haven't had a chance to look at it untill now, just happened 2 days ago,
happens every day at 10:00 etc.
