But there's no tried and true method of determining that information? You mention at least three methods of mangling PPP with Ethernet/ATM. And the overhead of each kind of setup also would vary depending on the specifics of that setup? (i.e., knowing you have bridged PPPoE doesn't instantly qualify you as having an overhread of 123i.) Sounds particularly complicated. But the overhead would be a fixed cost, no? If that is the case you can play whack-a-mole with that until you find a 'good' number. But, as I see it, without a realtime ATM cost scheduler, even if I figure out my true 'overhead' it won't make much difference. Thoughts, anyone? > Andy. > _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
