The explanation I got, was that the latency seen at the first hop was actually a reply from the last hop in the path across their MPLS network. Hence, all the following hops had very similar latency. Personally, I thought it was rather strange for them to do that. And, I've never seen that occur on any other network. Perhaps someone from ATT would like to chime in. --John Frank Bulk - iNAME wrote: Did that satisfy you? I guess with MPLS they could tag the traffic and send it around the country twice and I wouldn't see it at L3.
