Microbursts will drop UDP has well, you'll experience this as packet loss just the same, so you want to find value which has 0 packet loss. This same number will indicate when TCP will start dropping (and reducing window-size) I see people often don't even look at packet loss numbers in iperf UDP output -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
