I am interested in finding out, how much do the use of IP options slows down the gateways. I am sending TCP packets from host A to host A via gateway B. So, I am using IP_LSRR option. Would the intermediate gateways (i.e. between A & B) take a lot of time in processing the IP options. (How much?) I am not a frequent reader of this newsgroup. So if this topic has only recently been discussed, please excuse me. Thanks a lot, -dheeraj -- Dheeraj Sanghi (h):301-794-6247 (o):301-454-1516 Internet: dheeraj@cs.umd.edu UUCP: uunet!mimsy!dheeraj
