I guess depending on where one places the filter (and to whom it is applied), one could argue that this is a good thing. It does make troubleshooting a bit pesky however. I once moved a router and forgot to reconfigure the IP address on its serial interface. Most "everything" worked fine and didn't discover my mistake until I was troubleshooting my VOIP tunnel. |8^) -- /*===================[ Jake Khuon <[email protected]> ]======================+ | Packet Plumber, Network Engineers /| / [~ [~ |) | | --------------- | | for Effective Bandwidth Utilisation / |/ [_ [_ |) |_| N E T W O R K S | +=========================================================================*/
