I don't know what logical interfaces have to do with anything, nor do I know of any "design badness" here. > If Solaris, today, didn't have any IPMP functionality and someone > came to you and said they wanted to build something into Solaris > that delivers what IPMP does today, how would you recommend they > go about it? The same way I've proposed with the rearchitecture, without the backward compatibility constraints. -- meem _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
