I'm afraid this is one of those things I need help translating. I don't understand how an all-optical network improves the security of the IP layer. At best this is "improving" the security of the least vulnerable part of the network. But I could be wrong, and I'm willing to be educated.
It sounds an aweful lot like your initial analysis was dead on. Unless, of course, we're talking about running glass to the desktop again - the cost of which is going to be rather prohibitive for most people. And we're going to expend that cost for, as you pointed out, one of the least vulnerable parts of the network. That's rich. -- Douglas A. Dever doug@e-xpedient.com Senior Project Manager 216.373.8517
