Mike, All,

I know the changes the LINX has implemented, and I am
curious... and this might affect other folk as well.

What is better - the LINX approach (blocking the port,
trying again in x minutes when too many MACs were seen)
or the Equinix approach (we hardcode your MAC per VLAN/
per port if untagged, all else we just drop)?

Alexander
