This, in a nutshell, is one of the big NHRP issues: the client is in a position to know how much it wants to pay for the connection but the network is the only place that knows how much it will cost. With NHRP as the signaling protocol, there is no way to set up a mutually beneficial deal. Even worse than this is a situation with an intervening "low-cost" proxy-client which probably does not communicate any form of cost information with the real client (who is the one with the open wallet). > cheers, > gja > Andrew ******************************************************************************** Andrew Smith TEL: +1 408 764 1574 Bay Networks, Inc.
