Is it inter-AS or intra-AS traffic? I'd imagine the beginning of the IPTV roll-out will be intra-AS traffic, rather than inter-AS and global. We're looking into starting up with it on a small scale to work all the bugs out before expanding the customer base (like AT&T did in San Antonio) but no IPTV traffic will leave our network. AT&T is rapidly expanding U-verse (http://www.reuters.com/article/internetNews/idUSN2826839220070328 and http://seekingalpha.com/article/30657-project-lightspeed-at-t-s-iptv-architecture) and perhaps they've seen the BW issues better than others, thus the FUD by their vice president of legislative affairs at the Westminster eForum. Perhaps in his PoV AT&T's current network infrastructure is the Internet's current network architecture. scott --------------------- _______________________________________________ NANOG mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nanog.org/mailman/listinfo/nanog |
