Re: Non-ISP companies multi-homing?

Bruce, I have several customer who are multi-homed, some of which are ISP"s but not all. I am seeing this a coming trend for customers who wish to have redundant internet access. A bit pricey i bet, but maybe easier on the nerves :) John Buxbaum AT&T CBB -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Benda <bruce@clari.net> To: netops <netops@flycast.com> Cc: nanog@merit.edu <nanog@merit.edu> Subject: Re: Non-ISP companies multi-homing?

Does anyone know of any non-ISP companies that have decided to multi-home? Is this a major trend for non-ISP companies running mission-critical applications on the Internet?

So far, I only know of a couple, with PointCast being one of them.

We're multi-homed to BBN, Exodus (co-located too), and PBI.
