Hello gents and ladies, Following the "connectivity outside the US" thread. Did not some kind gent proffer a URL to an undersea cable map on this list in the recent past?

Re: RFC 1918 addresses

Paul, >> I agree that ever having a source or destination IP that's RFC1918 outside >> the domain is a very bad thing. >I don't see anyone here disagreeing with that, but apparently a number of >ISP's did not consider the ICMP case when they gave numbers to their T1's, >and so it's a question of definition rather than of intent. Transit nets >are public, not private, and so they have to have public, not private, >addresses. I want to respectfully disagree. I do run internal routing protocols that can't handle VLSM or CIDRization permitting cutting up a class C into 64 disconnected pieces. , igrp in particular. Because of this I would burn too many network numbers by having to use public network numbers for all my T1's. I never permit a case where both sides of a router have RFC1918 address space so there is no confusion in a traceroute at to where to address questions about routing issues. Purity of addresses is valuable but I am willing to compromise on this in this instance. Walt

Not exactly the kind of thing one wants to lay out >large capital expenditures on... High orbit, geosyncronous sattelites do not stand much of a chance against land lines as the latency on the links is quite high. Low orbit satellites, however, can be quite effective competition assuming that they have enough satellites to get coverage. These types of satellites are the ones that Gates is thinking of launching as well as several other companies/consortiums. When we can all have > 1MB/sec connectivity wireless to our laptops/video portable phones, with global coverage, satellites will rule the day. Justin "I still like land lines" Newton Justin W.

Hi all, I have been following this thread with some interest. A few months ago a friend of mine from Fore Systems told me about the 'ACTS' project. NASA and Ohio-State and quite a few others were doing research into the Gigabit Satelite Network. There was a test between Sony in Japan and I 'BELIEVE' JPL in Pasadena of hight def video transmissions over an OC-3 circuit. I heard something about a quasi commercial deployment of another ACTS project. Anybody heard anything about this? If enough birds like ACTS were sent up, this could be a boon for ISP's maybe. Of course I live in this ideal world where everybody is reasonable, intelligent, and well yea I know things are just quite the opposite. If MCI/AT&T/NTT/GTE put this into motion then were doomed, but if Hughes (read someone who doesn't own an ISP yet) put one up, it might be a bit more promising.
