Adam,
Thanks for your research and insight.  Unfortunately I think this is a
"synchronous" 56K feed I must provide.  Do you know if a similar feature
/ functionality exists for a synchronous feed?
Thanks for your help,

This is quite simply the best question I have seen for ages.
If you get this working you will be a true network genius ;-)
OK the solution is to turn your async feed into a UDP multicast stream.
multicast the feed about a bit to your 20 or so receivers and convert
the
udp back into async. Easy hun?
I thought this up and did some digging on cco - and this feature
actually
exists. can't beleive it.
here it is: start here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1830/products_feature_
guid
e09186a0080087a48.html#wp5038
scroll down a bit and you get to the multi cast example where you see
the
autocommand udptn command in use:
"autocommand udptn 172.1.1.1 /transmit" 
I have a hunch that this may be a cco mistake and should read something
like
this:
"autocommand udptn 230.5.5.5 /transmit" or whatever.
After you get this working please will you let me know?
nice one
