PoS failure detection happens in under 50ms, but what about the =
failback? Same deal? I ask because I've got two routers connected to =
opposite ends of a spare PoS link that I've been playing with and I'm =
noticing that the failback on the far side seems to be about 15 seconds =
(assuming the near side failover was initiated with an interface =
shutdown command and thusly no shut'd to re-enable the link). Just =
wanted to know if a higher failback time is a relatively normal =
occurrence and maybe I'm seeing some sort of built-in hold down feature =
working away?=
