[c-nsp] Effect of simultaneous TCP sessions on bandwidth

Hello Roland,

Yes, we have checked counters on all ports under our responsability, carriers' equipments and third party LL provider.

At first, we discovered speed/duplex mismatch between WE and CPE on customer site, this has been fixed since then.

Then, we saw output discards on CPE device (meaning upload from customer site towards datacenter). I believe this is due to the fact that carriers' port is FE only and cutomers' port is GE.

Carrier proposed to setup some kind of media converter between both equipments but I'm not sur this could help...

Y.
