Doesn't Juniper change their model numbers and names for different countries too? It's really hard to compare hardware when the product numbers change from country to country! On Fri, Jan 27, 2012 at 3:40 PM, Courtney Smith courtneysm...@comcast.netwrote: On Jan 26, 2012, at 1:00 PM,

Fiber to the AP is a great idea and the only way we will be able to meet customer demand. Within 1 year I don't think I'll have any towers that are more than 1 hop from fiber, with many directly on fiber. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com On 1/26/2012

This is the way it looked to me, too. I just asked the guy at Windstream who is dealing with it. He said... Windstream has two Tier 1 providers, Level 3 and AT T . This allows us to have two separate drains to the internet backbone. These two providers have two separate processes for setting up

If they are following proper protocols you have to tell your upstream what netblocks you are going to advertise to them, they verify this and write route-maps/filters to allow this through. They then contact their upstream and tell them the same thing. Repeat this up the chain. It's one

This is what stops me from advertising blocks which I don't own. So if I became an ISP for a multi-homed business, and they had their own IPs, I'd have to contact both of my upstreams, Windstream and ATT in order to have them route traffic in to this customer. I think I get that part. But we

It is not necessarily true that all ATT traffic will come in your ATT pipe. There could be multiple AS's appended to the path and shortest will win. I balance my BGP traffic via subnetting, break my /19 up into 32 /24's, and advertise them as I need to through my different upstreams to

You can still use spectrum for customers as long as your back-haul links use antennas with small beam widths, or run your back-haul links in horizontal and customer links in vertical polarity. The fact that our infrastructure is 100% wireless (outside our Internet upstream links) has been a

There is no more advantage to V vs. H with dual polarity equipment. More spectrum for customer access means more bits able to be moved. If I have a gig of wireless backhaul coming into a tower, that's a gig I could be using to make me money. I'd like to have 50 - 100 megabit plans for my

With 10 to 18,000 nodes in a cable citywide deployment you will not have enough spectrum to do that. These new deployments are hard wiring every node to their infrastructure either DOCSIS or fiber. The feature of that is just that your footprint to the end user gets smaller with more interference,
