"Direct" is not the only measure. I would take a 4-hop, 10GE, no packet loss path over a 1-hop, 1GE, 5% packet loss path any day of the week. "Shorter" {hops, latency, as-path} does not mean a higher quality end user experience. -- Leo Bicknell - bickn...@ufp.org - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/
