[TriLUG]Broadcast Storms

[Phillip Rhodes]

For anybody not familiar with the
broadcast storm concept, here's
a good article that gives useful
into:

www.networkuptime.com/columns/broadcast/

One thing they point out, is that as
Ethernet switching has become more
commonplace, broadcast storms have
become more of a problem, since the
network structure is becoming "flatter"
(not separated using routers), which
may answer the point I made in my
earlier message, about why that
affected the *entire* campus
network.

TTYL,
