Not much data is involved... That one is not feeding from an IDD node that is external to COMET, correct? If it is not, then upgrading it to LDM-6 is not as important for two reasons: - the data transfer is short haul, so there is little liklihood of there being delivery problems - the real time statistics that could be reported by it are not directly related to the IDD, so their inclusion in the picture we are trying to paint are not crutial. This is not to say that they are unimportant, mind you; the presumption is that any latency that would be seen on that machine would be that seen from the node participating directly in the IDD, and that is the information we are trying to capture.
