<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wanted to know if any of you have any
recommendations for optimum configurations for async dial-up ppp connections. I
want to squeeze every bit of throughput from my dialup connections. I am using
Cisco AS5300's and running Mica modem portware 2.9.5.0 . Is there a
specific IOS revision that seems to implement tcp/ip better than
others?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Or is there a better/older version of the portware
that I could be running?</FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2>I need to run a
v.92 release because I offer the Modem-on-Hold feature. Also I have a couple of
questions that relate to the subject of this email. Why is it that
in almost all of the "Cook Book" configs that I've seen
fair-queuing and fast switching are disabled?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It would seem that at least fair-queue
would be advantageous as it states in Cisco's docs that this is the default
queuing method for low speed interfaces. And why is it that fast switching is
not appropriate for async connections. What about CEF on async
interfaces?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any answers to these questions, or example
configs would be greatly appreciated.</FONT></DIV>
