Finally I fixed the problem with the "slow" SDSL link and thought maybe
you'd be interested in throughput figures.
The setup: 2x DSLpipes (DSL-HS-2.3), symmetric 2.3 Mbps, back-to-back
with a straight 1:1 cable as the "WAN", one as COE, one as CPE. Nailed
connection, either PPP or FR, bridging only. Transmitting a 4 Meg binary
file via ftp, 4K chunks (and 64 K):
KBps
PPP VJC Stac-9 98
PPP Stac-9 95
PPP VJC 259
PPP 258 (264)
FR 262 (268)
So it seems the old ISDN hardware of the P50 is sweating away at the
much higher bitrate. For this scenario FR does not offer visible
advantages regarding throughput.
I will test the effect of routing over bridging when I deploy the pipes,
and will put it on this list.
Thanks to all who answered so quickly, you all were right Dan, Scott and
Peter!
Best regards,
Wolfgang
