Travis, my network has no such "central" point. There is no point where my
traffic passes through or can be "mirrored" to a single point at a building.
In less than a year, it will all be dynamically routed via BGP, through
physically diverse locations and providers, and again, traffic from the
customers will not pass through any place where "logging" can be done.
Nor have I any location to keep such data secure.

Hi,
Although I am totally against this, we are already doing this (and keeping
a year's worth of history). Keep in mind we move about 110Mbps of traffic
average. We setup a linux box (p4/2.8ghz with 1GB of RAM and a 200GB drive)
about a year ago and installed IpAudit. This single box is able to keep up
with the traffic load and helps us track down customers that are infected,
SPAMMING, etc.
We simply mirror our main incoming port on our backbone switch to another
port, and plug the IpAudit box into that port. Works great. :)

Is WISPA lobbying against this? It will be nearly impossible for most of
us in the wireless business to do this, without major restructuring, or a
huge expense that we can't afford.

Why would Qwest want ISP's to have to retain this data?
