Is there any such devices available? Also i'd like to point out that ethernet is spec'd not to handle packets of this length so you would have to have a device that can generate a large packet to be affected. Has anyone looked at typical net traffic to see how much a large packet feature would be used? -- Jim Chorn Sequent Computer Systems ...ogcvax!sequent!giz (503)627-9815
