	I am interested to find anyone running NFS across p4200s
and how you go about doing same.  I am looking for actual performance
war stories.

	Our environment is PRonet-80 backbone with Ethernet subnets.
All our p4200s have the Proteon processors and Proteon Ethernet boards.
We do not use access list checking.

	Our workstation environment is typically diskless Sun 3/50s
and newer going to Sun 3 and 4 file servers.

	I am curious to know whether you turn on checksumming and
when you see performance hits with NFS checksumming on running across
one or more p4200s.

	I assume no one is running NFS across p4100s.               :-)
