Re: BGP over satellite link - update!!

[Geoff Huston <cidr-report at telstra.net>]

Thanks Randy,

I don't know if I have posting permission to afnog, but yes,
we operated a unidirectional satellite link (US -> Australia) for a couple
of years in the late 90's

I did write it up, complete with cisco config fragments and some MRTG
graphs of performance - its at www.potaroo.net in the ISP column
section.

I'd be happy to answer any questions about our experience with this config.
