[nsp] Problems with half bridge PVC

Mon May 17 00:07:37 EDT 2004

Hi Donato,

Thanks for your suggestion.  Unfortunately we're running it on
a VIP4-80 already.  The previous site was running it on a VIP2-50,
but it was running RBE.

Curiously, the other half-bridge PVC on this router is working
fine.

I'm going to get the telco to tear this one down and rebuild it
completely, I think.
