Hi nanog,

Strange thing happens everyday. When I were troubleshooting yestoday,
I found a ping to my local serial interface (no matter it's 155M POS, 
or 2M Serial interface) takes nearly twice delay compared with a ping 
to the remote side of the serial interrface ! When I trace to my local
serial interface, I got the first hop to the remote end, then second
hop back to my local interface ! 

For example, 202.97.2.1 is local serial interface, while 2.2 is remote
side. A trace on 2.1 to 2.1 first go to 2.2, then back to 2.1. And this
situation can be verified on both side.

Have you ever seen this situation ? Is it due to our misconfiguration?
or it's sheerly a mis-display of result in Cisco box (can't believe it)

The background is: we're using ISIS as IGP, and utilized level-1/2 link.

thanks for any input.

regards,

Yu Ning
