eCommerce to change traffic patterns?
Are all you system architects out there prepared for the increase in national traffic between providers as retail and distribution sectors start bringing their business on-line ( wont even mention voice over ip) Just how big are our pipes carrying traffic between providers in NZ? I know you big access boys are sinking your investment into International IP to meet the demand of residential surfers, but what what your national connectivity? We have just upgraded our primary domestic route to Netgate to 2Mbps to cope with the increased traffic expected from new business over the next 3 months. Is this a topic of interest on a Friday, or is the pub more inviting :-) ? regards Peter Mott Chief Enthusiast 2Day Internet Limited http://www.2day.net.nz -/- --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Unless people are connecting only via Xtra, I would be surprised if their national component becames a bottle neck... national bandwidth isn't terribly expensive or scarce.... -cw --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

I would agree - when you have the major players peering over something like Citylink, it ceases to become a problem. Also to put throw a spanner in the works - Even though VOIP technologies are progressing and the required bandwidths and QoS requirements are decreasing, you are still taking you life in your hands when you offer a VOIP solution over a public network. (I do not speak for Ascend, if they knew half the things I said they would probably have me killed) Dean -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Dean Pemberton Ph: +61-3-9656-7000 Regional Technical Specialist Asia-Pacific Fx: +61-3-9656-7006 Ascend Communications, Inc Mb: +61-419-117-321 Lvl 38, ANZ Tower, 55 Collins St Melbourne,Australia mailto:deanp(a)ascend.com.au -----------------------------------------------------------------------
