Bill, your "vision" about statics taking over made me laugh for quite a while. Nobody is about to replace dynamic routing with static. What Randy is talking about is a technique to avoid generation irrelevant rotuing updates. I.e. the rest of the network does not have to be informed that some of your interior LANs fell off, ok? >In the end, the Internet looks just like the telco mesh. At least telephones work; and work reliably. Unlike Internet. And telephone network is orders of magnitude bigger than Internet; and went through numerous radical technology changes without losing integrity. Guess, telco engineers did something right. --vadim
