Skype doesn't run over any standard or non standard voip protocol, it runs over TCP or UDP.
It is very easy to block or shape VOIP because it (usually) operates over SIP. I think a big part of the problem here is that most people don't understand the point of these bills, and that they are poorly written. The idea is that protocols like SIP, RTP, H323, will get a higher priority when that pipe is full. What is more important, a 911 call, or you buying a CD from amazon.com? > -----Original Message----- > From: Vivec [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, May 01, 2006 11:18 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Those that said it would not happen :Net Neutrality voted > down by congress. > > Cisco routers can now do packet inspection and determine if the > communication is VOIP, ports don't matter anymore. > > That technology is actually part and parcel of the bill and is part of > the reason why such a bill is now viable. > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:206033 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
