I think the big one is you can get CDN servers near wherever 8.8.8.8
lives instead of ones near where you really are.

I can't even begin to enumerate why this is wrong and you will regret
it later. I'm sure others will go into more detail why. If you don't
run a pair of geographically distributed recursive caching resolvers
for DIA/IP customers, it is in my opinion not a real ISP.

Guess I don’t need DNS. 8.8.8.8 seems cheap and easy...

Subject: [AFMUG] ISP in a box
Had a subdivision developer contact me, wanting service for their
hundred or so homes.
I can get DIA close to the area at a reasonable area. It will require
some build but that is OK, that is something I feel some level of
expertise.
Considering a minimal NOC build.
I asked this question of someone once before and I cannot find their
answer. Not sure if asked on the list or not. But the answer went
something like this:
Buy a big CCR. Hire Linktechs to configure it. Put in a big switch for
the AE SFPs and rock and roll.
I am sure I would need at least one server. DHCP, NAT, DNS?
But can all of that be provided by the CCR?
What is the smallest NOC configuration that could be created?
Batts, rectifier, cooling.
I really could put all this in a cabinet on the corner of the street.
