Barry,

We have sflow and p2p working it is awesome and our member love it.  We
just had our second annual board meeting for NWAX.  So we have a fresh
excitement about IXP Manager and getting more features working.

I did just do a search for that script and I don't have a copy of it with
the latest clone from github.

How does INEX handle lag ports?  I know we are small, but Netflix is adding
their third 10Gig port and Google adding their second.  This data is still
missing from p2p.

Thanks Brian
