Hi,

just when others are wondering: Occasionally soemeone has to do packet traces 
(or 
end-to-end comparisons) to trace some obscure problems, and being able to have 
those IDs seems like a good idea to me -- "pro-active". But if those are  hard 
to 
get: Don't invest too much time.

Regards,
Ulrich
