Dave Mills has been seeing asymmetric routing for traffic between the University of Delaware and the fuzzball NTP server in Norway. Dave, please correct me if I'm wrong but I believe you said that traffic from UDel goes to Princeton and then to Stockholm, while traffic from the fuzzball in Norway goes down a link to Amsterdam and over the UUNet link to Maryland. Can anybody verify this? Explain it? Justify it? Asymmetric routes aren't necessarily bad, but we should know why they are happening because they are often indicative of problem areas in routing. Thanks ... Scott
