Pete, > We shouldn't require all the traffic to pay the price of centralization
I'm not suggesting that. Split model, with partial subset of the flows going through a central anchor and part of the other traffic breaking out locally is fine. My comment is not tie "cost" as the only argument for enabling LBO models. Its a deployment consideration that drives that decision. It may be about the availability of internet peering points, or many other considerations. > LI should be a very small proportion of the traffic, and those flows can >be directed to a collection point as needed. You mean small set of subscribers, or small portion of a subscriber traffic. ? If its later, I assumed the Communication Content (CC) for intercept (in general) is HTTP+SMTP traffic which in most cases maps to 100% of the subscriber traffic.
