The suggestion of fail-over to some kind of radio link has been raised with the boss and he's not totally agin the idea, but I need to investigate that further.
I've done a deal of microwave for WAN applications, and it can work quite well in that context, but no way would I ever consider it for a transit uplink in any kind of HA-type scenario. It seems there's a certain reluctance to look at moving onto someone else's patch and onto someone else's hardware; it might be worth determining whether that reluctance is really warranted, in this day and age. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Roland Dobbins <rdobbins(a)arbor.net> // <http://www.arbornetworks.com> Luck is the residue of opportunity and design. -- John Milton
