Hi, Do you work for maltacom ? My friend is the cisco account manager fort malta, maybe you know him. His name is shlomi kremer.
Regarding the caching solution, here is an interesting answer i got on the list: Dear Amos, There are a few caching solutions using squid servers, or you can use something like Cidera (I have contacts if you need them), or even join an association that has huge bandwidth savings (If you are interested I will pull out the info) but it is expensive to join. Those numbers are about right, you will have different metrics than the states since here in Europe surfing patterns are different due to language differences, but they are about average as far as it goes.

Recently kazaa has released a new version of their p2p software, kazaa v2 which is hard to classify and quantify. Do you manage to classify this traffic - kazaa v2 doesnt work on tcp port 1214 like v1. it uses dynamic ports Re caching. I dont believe there is a solution, but if you find anything, please let me know, since i would be interested in such a solution Thanks Mark ----- Original Message ----- From: "Amos Rosenboim" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 12:12 PM Subject: [isp-caching] introduction + peer 2 peer traffic > Hi, > i'm working as a Head of networking team for an isp in israel. > When we analyzed our traffic ( using Allot Netenforcer ) we have noitced the dominance of the peer to peer applications. > For our broadband users it's between 40-60% of total traffic ( more then http) and for the dial up users it's about 30% which is a heavy compettion to the http traffic. has anyone done similiar analysis to confirm or disconfirm my analysis ? > Does anyone know of any caching solution to such traffic ? > Amos Rosenboim > Network Team Manager > INTERNET-GOLD > > > ____________ The ISP-CACHING Discussion List ___________ > To Join: mailto:join-isp-caching@;isp-caching.com > To Remove: mailto:remove-isp-caching@;isp-caching.com > Archives: http://isp-lists.isp-planet.com/isp-caching/archives/ > ____________ The ISP-CACHING Discussion List ___________ To Join: mailto:join-isp-caching@;isp-caching.com To Remove: mailto:remove-isp-caching@;isp-caching.com Archives: http://isp-lists.isp-planet.com/isp-caching/archives/ ____________ The ISP-CACHING Discussion List ___________ To Join: mailto:join-isp-caching@;isp-caching.com To Remove: mailto:remove-isp-caching@;isp-caching.com Archives: http://isp-lists.isp-planet.com/isp-caching/archives/
