My X.25 network in Norway was a class B network when I started working
in WAN networking 5 years ago - it failed more often than I liked.
Now I would consider it a class A network.

My local UNINETT network had a problem last week - due to a wrong
configuration, it failed about 3 % of my calls. I consider that Class B
behaviour.

Unfortunately, I cannot switch transport protocols dynamically; I am stuck
in class 0, and do recovery in the upper layers.
That is a typical example of having a map that fits the terrain, but the
roads do not follow the terrain, and you must follow the roads......
Nobody seems to CARE about class B behaviour.
