Re -- The fact that these outages happen from time to time are unfortunate

But does it take the entire network down with it, though.

Re -- Bleeding edge switches...

Oh well may as well call them untested switches... Surprised that ATT installed any of these.

And lastly bgg, you are grouping Cisco with Ascend. That implies something does it not? And furthermore as usual you are making assumptions that I have mentioned that Bay/3Com had an equivalent switch.

You are absolutely right that Cascade FR switches failed -- the ISP in that case was UUNET (now owned by WCOM) and it was a software glitch. Regards
