ATM SVC rerouting time

That depends on if the SVC was torn down due to a broken link, or if the 
switch is just coming online, or if it was rerouted around congestion, and a 
million other tuneable factors.

In our network, SVC (SPVCs) get rerouted at near sonet speeds, although that's 
not very scientific.
