The only reason we multihomed to 2xT1 rather than adding additional capacity with our first provider lack of clue. Minimum downtime for ANY
While there is a great lack of clue in many locations, don't forget the bean counters/marketing/sales. In an outage, virtually all ISP's prioritize customer restoriation, and sometimes the quality of the engineer working the incident by the size of the circuit (which presumably translates into $$$'s, but that's a whole different tarball). Thus, one could conclude that the lowest speed circuits get the "worst" service, and thus those with the smallest bandwidth needs have the largest need to multihome. -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell@ufp.org Systems Engineer - Internetworking Engineer - CCIE 3440 Read TMBG List - tmbg-list-request@tmbg.org, www.tmbg.org
