What do these abbreviations in network hostnames mean?
When I use traceroute, I often see abbreviations in the hostnames along the route, such as "ge", "so", "ic", "gw", "bb" etc. I can guess "bb" means backbone.
Does anyone know what any these strings abbreviate, or know any other common abbreviations?
