Not sure where you get the "undisclosed version" from. I pointed out that I've been using various snapshots over the stated time-line. I didn't keep meticulous notes on what exact snapshot I used starting at what date and for how long. Frankly I don't think there are many people that keep such accounting records. > Wait, does that "until one from 2 months ago" mean that the behavior > changed when you most recently updated the snapshot you're running?!? No. That is why I specifically said "which I'm currently running" to indicate that I am still, currently running the snapshot from two months ago. >> e.g., I can start a ping going for the particular host on the remote >> network, next establish the route and the pings continue out on the >> physical interface.
