That will depend on how their billing works. If they bill from radius, or from a counter on the customer facing port, then yes, they will be charging for data inside their network. Billing on the 'upstream' border requires the use of netflow, or some kind of commercial accounting box, or, if you don't /really/ care about your packets, a linux box with IPTables or something. *flame proof jacket* In any case, they all require extra processing of packets, which means extra things to break. -- Nathan Ward
