A quick search comes up with Scientific Linux, but I cannot provide any claims to suitability. I have never even heard of it before, but it is provided as a LiveCD. http://linux.web.psi.ch/livecd/software.html -Mike Gonnason On Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 6:28 AM, Frank Bulk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

regarding capacity, I generally they suggest setup iperf at both ends and run a few tests with multiple TCP sessions so they can independently verify. Hopefully Sprint will take your concerns to heart and assist you with testing. -Mike Gonnason

n detection) or a jump (total reworking of network policing architecture). I am glad to say that whatever is decided, it will most likely be implemented far faster than IPv6. As we will not have a specific feature to buy us time from congestion, unlike what NAT did for IPv4. :) -Mike Gonnason

source consumption. His example is individual flow rate fairness (traditional TCP congestion avoidance) vs cost fairness (a combination of congestion "cost" and flow rate associated with a specific entity). He also compares his cost fairness methodology to existing proposed TCP variants, which Hank previously mentioned. i.e. XCP, WFQ, ... Any thoughts regarding this? -Mike Gonnason
