Intellectually I want to agree with you, but after some reflection...
We use lots of tunnels at my org - the IPsec variety. A quick non-scientific=
query of our monitoring logs reveals that our tunnels are exactly as reliab=
le as the circuits and routers which underneath them.
MTU issues aren't really a problem for us either, but then again we do contr=
ol all the devices at at least one end if the tunnel.
I defer to your experience and reputation Randy, and im syre you're right. B=
ut where are all these horrifically unreliable tunnels?=20=
