OT OT OT OT, OK you really don't need to read this- Re: You needn't go loony over the url. Thanks, I've been goin' loony over at the George W. Bush thread instead. Way more fun. ;) I think it's called baitin' the trap... I've only got one new "ignore" for the day, hehe. Have you seen any All IP vendors doing this sort of thing recently? smile Why, just the other day, I thought I saw one them fellas drive by the ranch, couldn't be sure though, seemed like he had other things on his mind.

I have question for anyone about security issues around shared bandwidth. Please excuse my lack of knowledge of exact terms but I'll give it my best effort. Let's say you have rights to a single strand of fiber optic and you wish to divide up the bandwidth on that fiber and market/lease out smaller blocks of the bandwidth to many different customers. Does this scenario create security issues (e.g. hacking) that would make sophisticated, large companies balk at this concept? Or is the equipment technology in place to prevent security issues. Thanks in advance for your insight.
