Hi All,

I am experiencing a strange issue between 2 m40 core routers connect
through an oc48 link

I experience packet loss only when sending packets between 293 and 599
bytes.

I am also speaking to cold telecom about the issue to see if it's a
problem with the sonet link, but as of now the link is not taking any
errors or alarms.

Anyone seen anything strange like this before?
