I don't totally agree with the notion that locations of any emergency can be
predicted in advance. An known ETS location belongs to one of many emergency
scenarios. We cannot address all scenarios at once; therefore, we can only
move in small increments; that is, addressing congestion problem in this
specific scenario.

Does "Gold service" mean access traffic needs to be classified so that
traffic belongs to this gold service could be taken care of first when
congestion occurs? If the answer is yes, I would like to some proposed
mechanisms from the WG. If no, what else can be done to solve  this problem?

Agree.

A starting point is that an "enterprise network" normally has one of
2 flavours:

	(A)	campus or single-building network, most commonly built out
		of 10/100/1000 Ethernet these days.
	(B)  multi-site enterprise network (e.g. US General Electric Co.)
		with T1/NxT1/T3 links between/among the various sites and
		with any given site looking like (A) above.

An "access network" typically means the uplink between an enterprise
network and its IP service provider.  Access networks are most commonly
built out of T1/NxT1/T3 links, though for large multi-site enterprises
the uplink might sometimes be higher bandwidth (e.g. OC-3 ATM or SONET,
OC-12 ATM or SONET).

I don't know what form of "Gold service" meaning Kimberly meant,
so the following example uses the explanation that An provided:

	One possible mechanism (applicable ONLY IF there is a single
	administrative/policy domain, not for an inter-domain scenario):
	- packet classification based on arrival port, based on IP ToS or
		Ethernet 802.1p precedence markings, based on source/dest address
		and/or protocol (e.g. UDP, TCP, SCTP) and port number (e.g.
		SIP, SMTP, FTP), or based on other selectors.
	- mark IP ToS/Ethernet 802.1p based on the preceding packet 
classification.
	- deploy DiffServ within the enterprise network, with at least 3 
queues:
			- normal traffic (lowest priority)
			- preferred traffic
			- network control/routing traffic (highest priority, low bandwidth)
	- use DiffServ to apply class-based-queuing on access/uplink routers

The issue with inter-domain is mitigating risk of DoS/DDoS attacks
on the ISP's core or in the destination domain's network.

An arbitrary location may connect to the Internet, if it connects, via one
or more of about 10,000 ISPs.  I just haven't heard any ideas on how you get
anything but default treatment in an arbitrary network with whom you have no
prior relationship.  (Recall from the framework that we don't want to assume
mandates but rather SLA-type approach.)  So that's the reason for the
assumption.

Helping performance in IP networks may take a rethinking of what it takes to
be successful.  At a minimum, it may require redefining what it means to be
"taken care of first" and the definition of when there is "congestion".  IP
network performance is inherently statistical rather than an ordered
deterministic "this call first, then that one".  

For networks with best effort service (e.g., the overwhelming majority of
ISPs), it might make sense to have the provider guarantee some minimum
throughput for particular locations.   Let's take an example of driving a
car in my town.  Vehicular traffic in Washington D.C. can be congested.
One method to control congestion on a highway is to control the rate traffic
enters the highway.  One method of gold service says ETS locations get to
put more traffic on that highway when the on-ramps are busy.  

There is also another method for solving particular congestion problems (at
least for some cars).  One can put in a special lane (say for high occupancy
cars) on that highway.  This is more a RSVP/DiffServ approach and may be
appropriate on certain enterprise networks.

I hope this provides some forward direction.

Kimberly,

When you said "

There is also another method for solving particular congestion problems (at
least for some cars).  One can put in a special lane (say for high occupancy
cars) on that highway.

I was surprised that you did not also address those few selected vehicles
with flashing lights and a siren that can get "Platinum Service" on the
existing roads without the need for new lanes.

An arbitrary location may connect to the Internet, if it connects, via one
or more of about 10,000 ISPs.  I just haven't heard any ideas on how you get
anything but default treatment in an arbitrary network with whom you have no
prior relationship.  (Recall from the framework that we don't want to assume
mandates but rather SLA-type approach.)  So that's the reason for the
assumption.

Helping performance in IP networks may take a rethinking of what it takes to
be successful.  At a minimum, it may require redefining what it means to be
"taken care of first" and the definition of when there is "congestion".  IP
network performance is inherently statistical rather than an ordered
deterministic "this call first, then that one".

For networks with best effort service (e.g., the overwhelming majority of
ISPs), it might make sense to have the provider guarantee some minimum
throughput for particular locations.   Let's take an example of driving a
car in my town.  Vehicular traffic in Washington D.C. can be congested.
One method to control congestion on a highway is to control the rate traffic
enters the highway.  One method of gold service says ETS locations get to
put more traffic on that highway when the on-ramps are busy.

There is also another method for solving particular congestion problems (at
least for some cars).  One can put in a special lane (say for high occupancy
cars) on that highway.  This is more a RSVP/DiffServ approach and may be
appropriate on certain enterprise networks.

I hope this provides some forward direction.

Are you suggesting that some sort of call admission control mechanisms to
make sure that, for the lack of better words, traffic other than best effort
has some sort of treatment?

I could not agree more with you on DiffServ.:-)

Maybe.  Depends on how you define "call admission control" and "some sort of
treatment".  I'm not thinking about calls but rather just packets.  Back to
my vehicle traffic control analogy.  Suppose some highway on-ramp can
support 10 cars gaining entry to the highway every 5 minutes.  I'm
suggesting a minimum of those cars are ETS ones (say 4 out of 10).  In
network terms, suppose a (bottleneck) link can support a certain rate per
second of traffic moving through.  Suppose, for example, we guarantee 40% of
those packets that get through are ETS. It's a preferential treatment to get
on the highway.  Once on the highway, all cars drive best effort.

Picture time...
(use fixed-width font such as Courier).


Imagine 3 locations, two "regular" and one ETS share a connection to the
network.  This link can get congested.  Suppose regular locations are moving
traffic at about 50% of that link speed while ETS is sending traffic at
about 45% of the link speed.  Normally, (assuming we can load to 100%), we
should see 45% of the traffic drop and it might all be assumed to be roughly
distributed among the locations.  What I'm suggesting is a way for ETS
traffic to have preferential access.  If the guaranteed minimum were 40% for
ETS, then only 5% of that ETS traffic would be dropped.


   --
     -- Regular 50% link speed                    ---
       ---                                    //--   --\\

                traffic dropped 45%,
                40% regular traffic
                5% ETS


Note, I don't want to write the draft real-time on the list but I'm trying
to provide what I think are some valid (and cost effective) ways to use the
natural methods of IP networks to achieve the desired result.

I hope this provides a good direction for a best-effort network.

Not sure how to answer.  I was speaking figuratively to get the ideas
across.

One idea...if the road in question is a loaded link, then all packets
already on that link have to move in order.  I can't tell packets to pull
over into the curb of a link because there is a packet with a siren and
flashing lights behind it.  We have no space to pull over. 

Another idea...if the analogy is the entrance onto the highway, then this
"platinum service" is basically what I have described as gold.  There is a
preference to which cars get entry.  This is invariant of whether you use
the preference for a particular ingress link connected to an ETS location,
whether the packets are labeled using DiffServ, or whether the packets are
associated with a particular RSVP reservation.  It's all basically
scheduling at any one hop.

Perhaps this clarifies.

Interesting idea! Why would I buy 10 cars knowing that I can only use 4 when
I need to use them. BTW, if I know the location of the emergency sites,
would it be the best idea to go with ONE service provider who is willing to
provide end-to-end treatment? It sounds like a VPN in this case.

Interesting concept! How would you distinguish ETS and non-ETS traffic from
a routing perspective?

If one knows the location of the emergency sites, the simplest approach
is to build a private/dedicated layer-2 connection between those sites.
That layer-2 might (for example) be build using Ethernet over dark 
fibre,
using ATM and/or SONET, using Frame Relay, or using mundane T1, E1,
or T3 circuits.  This is approximately the strategy of the {N,S}IPRnet,
which is built primarily on top of leased L2 capacity and provides 
private
network services to many US DoD sites.

I am not aware of any IP VPN provider that offers any end-to-end
preferential treatment of IP packets.  Maybe one exists someplace,
but I'm not aware of any (and I have looked).

Sorry, I did not use the right terminology. I meant it from an DiffServ/MPLS
perspective :-).

I think your terminology was just fine.

I just don't know any IP or IP VPN operator that actually has enabled 
DiffServ
inside the operator's core for any customer packets (nor do I know of 
any with
any form of real end-to-end DiffServ/ToS deployment).  I know of a few 
that use
one codepoint for internal routing/network-mgmt traffic and another 
codepoint
for all customer traffic, but those operators clear all IP ToS bits on 
inbound
customer packets.  There are also some (e.g. from IETF/Atlanta 
presentation
by Sprint.net) that will read ToS bits on the inbound access link only
(i.e. this is not an end-to-end service).

There might be some MPLS Layer-2 VPN providers that provide a layer-2
private-line service that has been provisioned in the style of Frame 
Relay.
I'm not aware of any, but some might exist someplace.  However, this
again would basically be equivalent to purchasing layer-2 capacity
and building a private network for oneself (see previous example).

Cheers,

Ran

I don't think we are communicating.  If getting 40% of the shared bandwidth
from a public serving ISP isn't good enough (or some reasonable percent)
then you need to consider a priviate network.  As was discussed at the last
meeting, it is highly improbable that an ISP will give ETS 100% of the
bandwidth, even if they ask.  This sharing idea is consistent with Wireless
Priority Service.  If you can find an ISP willing to offer you 100%
bandwidth and they feel their other customers will accept such service
during emergencies then fine.  Some pointed out that everyday folks made
important 911 calls during September 11th.  I have no axe to grind, I'm just
repeating points made by others at previous ieprep meetings and on the
lists.

The type of classification I described can be done many ways.  One simple
way is to imagine a router who connects to three customers. The router can
keep track of what packets came in on what link.  This is an easy technical
problem and Ran mentioned some techniques earlier.  The point shouldn't be
the mechanism here, the point should be is this service acceptable and if
not then can you provide a concrete alternative?

Actually, I think the siren analogy is quite good.  When emergency
traffic does have to get thru,
(most rational) people  don't mind making way for that emergency
traffic even if they are slightly delayed.
One factor is that such emergency traffic  (let's not call it
e-traffic) is less than 1% of the total. Thus, overall,
the impact on normal users is acceptable.
Such prioritization is possible at the packet network.  The
Multi-Level Expedited Forwarding PHB has been built and successfully
tested.
An I-D <draft-silverman-diffserv-mlefphb-00.txt> was submitted on this
subject just before the SF meeting but then the Diffserv WG was
closed.
This does not address signalling or authorization but I view these as
solvable problems.  The PHB does demonstrate that multiple levels of
priority can work in a packet network.

Now the question is: Do we need "Emergency Vehicles" on a  global
voice network?  People with some backgrounds answer  "Of course",
while others respond negatively.  (Perhaps they also refuse to pull
over when overtaken by an ambulance.)
The analogy shouldn't be pushed too hard but the function is necessary
to the DOD and some other possible customers have indicated interest.

An issue is that buffering in access/enterprise CPE routers/switches
is generally pretty shallow (because folks who buy such products
do not want to buy RTT ms of buffer).

So in the places likely to have congestion, lack of buffering
might be a significant practical issue for the deployed equipment.

Which is to say, the choice is not "slightly delayed" versus "not 
delayed"
but instead is "dropped" versus "forwarded" -- to use the increasingly
strained traffic analogy.

Maybe.  The 1% number comes from GETS statistics, right ?
Not from any real IP-based service, right ?

If someone actually has specific measured IP packet utilisation
for an IP-based preference system, that would be interesting
to hear about and a lot more relevant to the discussions here.

> Such prioritization is possible at the packet network.  The

A significant problem is detecting forged packets or forged IP ToS bits
on packets.  Absent such ability to detect bogon packets, deployment
of end-to-end DiffServ (with any DiffServ PHB) creates a 
trivially-exploited
DoS/DDoS attack on the infrastructure.  Within a single policy domain,
ACLs or other filtering *might* be able to reduce that risk to 
acceptable
levels.  However, no one has described any mechanism for reducing that
risk to acceptable levels in an inter-domain context.

> This does not address signalling or authorization but I view these as
> solvable problems.

It would be interesting to see your specific proposals on those issues
(and on authentication, without which authorisation could be subverted).

Are there any I-Ds on those ?

> The PHB does demonstrate that multiple levels of
> priority can work in a packet network.

We already knew that from the old (80s) DDN, which deployed the RFC-791
8-level DoD precedence system in the production DDN of that time.

> Now the question is: Do we need "Emergency Vehicles" on a  global
> voice network?

I don't think so.  I think the first questions are can any such system
be deployed in any reasonable way.  So far, the answer is that such a
system could only reasonably be deployed within a single policy domain.

Absent specific credible technical proposals that solve the 
inter-domain issues,
it is greatly premature to raise the question quoted above, IMHO.

Yes, some packets will be dropped.  Voice packets that are delayed
more than
a jitter buffer's worth are worthless.  But these should be a small
percentage of any
one user's packets.  see below.

The number of users in each DOD priority class is less than 10% of the
class below it.
I do not believe that anybody has run tests on this but my guess is
that  very few users would notice
much degradation of voice quality.

Granted.  I have been working on DISA to fund work in this area for
some time.

They haven't funded me to do this yet. This is a big area. I would
expect a number of people/companies to be
involved in this once they decide to do it. They can't deploy VoIP
without it.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion but the JCS has stated
that MLPP must be supported and VoIP can't be deployed without it.
This is only one private net but in the past, it has set a standard
for
various other nets and the DOD tries to run multi-vendor networks so
they prefer
standards done in a public forum. That's why this is being discussed
here.

I think the first questions are can any

Actually, the DOD is primarily interested in one policy domain, their
private network.
But I think that if VoIP is ever to be supported by real carriers as a
public net, the
architectural model and certain security aspects will change
signficantly from the current model.
The current SIP architecture is based on "smart terminal, dumb fast
network".  This is OK if you trust everyone but
history has shown that is a poor assumption.  I predict that before
Verizon or SBC is going to invest $Bs, they are
going to demand much better safeguards than are available now.  This
may ease the problems faced by the DOD since
all major carriers have some of the same concerns.

I think it is good to have an overview of where you are trying to

At least some of us think of IEprep as not being limited to voice
applications.  Certainly DISA folks (that I talk with about their 
interest
in precedence for IP networks) are saying that voice is not the main
application of concern for QoS.  Their main concerns seem to be with
TCP-based applications, such as mail/web/ftp/C3I stuff.

Are you saying that the statistics are for the AutoVON (DSN) system ?
Are you saying that this is what the (some part of US DoD) has as
a policy statement for their priority schema ?
Or are you saying something else ?

And when you say "degradation of voice quality", what is that
in reference to ?

DARPA might be more likely to fund R&D on that.

I'll just say that it is not clear to me that these issues are
practical to solve in an inter-domain context.  Colour me sceptical
at least until a specific documented proposal appears that can be
openly evaluated.  :-)

You misinterpret my comment.  I was saying that "I don't think that
is the actual question at hand", rather than trying to answer the
question either way.

One possible outcome from the JCS policy statement is that DISA/DoD
don't deploy VoIP.  Resolving the conflicts (if any) between their 
policy
choices and the technology they choose to deploy is their local matter,
rather than an IETF standards issue.

It hasn't set a standard for non-government networks in at least 10
years.  In fact, at the moment, DISA (e.g. in GigBE) is directly trying
to change its modus operandi and instead of past practices, DISA is 
trying
to directly emulate "commercial best practices" in evolving its 
deployed IP
networks and services to be more effective than the current {N,S}IPRnet.

Lets not rathole, but I think DISA's MLPP problem is *solved* (and
am happy to explain why, in person if that's helpful) by DiffServ
-- in large part because DoD is a single policy domain, so the
inter-domain issues aren't particularly the ones facing DoD or DISA.

And I further think this is solved in existing IETF standards and
with product available from more than one vendor (though maybe not
available from all vendors).

See above.

A lot depends on what you mean by "real carriers".  At least 2 different
definitions come to mind:
	(A) real IP carriers
	(B) real telephony/voice carriers

Now group (A) is focused on moving IP packets around and tries VERY hard
not to look at more than the Destination IP address.  They have said 
repeatedly
on this list and in IEprep meetings that they do not plan to change
this focus anytime soon.

Group (B) might (hypothetically) move to a VoIP infrastructure, but 
appears
most likely to do so over an essentially closed, specially engineered,
IP network -- rather than over the networks operated by folks in (A)
-- at least for the forseeable future.

My own experience over the past several months, using the Bill Woodcock
phone system, is that his phone system works really well.  I share
Sally Floyd's concerns that the current technology underlying that
phone system lacks adequate congestion avoidance and control -- hence
might not be healthy for the global Internet, but that's a separate
issue from whether it works or not.

Au contraire.  History for the past ~20 years is that "smart host, dumb
fast network" is a VERY GOOD assumption for an IP network or for 
applications
on an IP network.  The history of voice telephony networks and of IP 
networks
is necessarily largely disjoint over the same time period.

I'm a bit unclear on the objective.

Sigh ... qos/QoS discussions remind me of the observation about
economists: if you lined them all up end to end, they still couldn't
reach a conclusion.

Is the objective to have internet access for emergency services 
or is it
to have high quality of service (definition unclear) internet 
access ...(but on links that may not exist)?

Reiterate my plowshares-->swords checklist:
  - availability/survivability
  - security
  - qos
  - reach to mobile platforms
in my experience most requirements issues fall in these four bins so
makes a good checklist to see if you've got arms around the whole
problem.  From the thread of the last couple days, it looks like we've
got one of the four trees (qos) in the forest.  And, IMHO, not the most
important ones.  

Running through the checklist:
  - IP, by it's nature, is very amenable to high availability solutions
by provisioning backup comms so that outages can be routed around.  I
counsel my students to start here ... you may find yourself putting a
lot of the qos worries into the no-nevermind category.
  - the security component for emergency services that is most critical
is authenticity.  The technology is such that if you solve the
authenticity problem (and integrity is a subset solution), 
then you have all the pieces necessary for confidentiality as well.  
  - qos.  In the emergency services situations I dealt with in a former
life, I was generally happy when I had comms.  Whether it was 'high
quality' comms was never an issue.  Personally, I find the arguments
about QoS a bit tiresome and I can't shake the opinion that we're
chasing after a non-problem to the neglect of the real problems.
  - reach to mobile platforms is a big issue for emergency 
services just as it is for the military.  This category is also rife
with solutions (some of them pretty bad) chasing rather undefined
problems.  

Strikes me that using IEPREP to articulate the problem here would be
useful...



My observation of the traffic loading is that what used to be voice
applications tend to shift to some other flavor of data as they get
increasingly automated.  If engineered at all intelligently, this almost
always results in a more loosely coupled system meaning that there's
increasingly less need to fiddle with default qos behavior.  
	An example.  The dispatcher needs to know where the fire department's
engines are.  So she calls up on the radio and the engine driver
responds with his position (either by reading a street sign or by
reading the numbers off a radionav receiver).  Now overhaul the system
so the engine reports its position automagically ... without pestering
the driver.  We make the radionav receiver an end system on the network
and it periodically (or on poll, a la SNMP) reports its Lat/Long
coordinates which are poured into the dispatcher's database and
displayed on the GIS GUI.  At this stage of automation, the bursty
behavior of the internet is inconsequential.

I very much agree.

There is a very real possibility of seeking to provide _unnecessarily good service_ to emergency users.  I have not heard it said that emergency users, for example, require better quality audio.  There is no reason for an emergency packet to move to the head of the queue when it arrives at a router.  It just should not be as likely to be dropped or experience unacceptably high delay.

Our belief is that the solution lies with an authentication/marking mechanism coupled with emergency-oriented active queue management that during congestion drops packets in a preferential manner.  

This would only be done at choke points, not along the whole path.  These choke points would likely be at the uplinks to ISP's, regional networks (like the network here in Missouri that connects all the schools in the state together), and in resource-constrained access links (wireless, residential cable networks, etc.)

Some of this is discussed in the Framework draft in Section 4.1.3.  Any comments about what is written there?

I couldn't agree more. This QoS issue and bickering has been sidetracking the 
real issue, especially since QoS is generally equated with the few parameters 
associated with transfer of speech packets (loss, delay, delay variation) and 
not with the broader call setup "QOS" parameters such as call setup time, 
probability of call failure, probability of premature disconnect, etc.

There has recently been some suggestions that what ETS or Assured Service 
wants is better QOS than the normal traffic gets during normal times. This is 
not true. As Rex indicated, emergency users would be satisfied with worse QOS 
(regarding transmission of speech) as long as the connection is set up. That 
is, in an emergency situation when normal users have something close to 0% 
chance of getting a call through, the emergency working must have a 
significantly higher probability.

This is exactly the point of the MLEF that Steve Silverman referred to and

This is not a recent development, many times it has been stated that there
needs to be a "better than best effort" level of service for emergency
traffic.

Since during normal times, providers may offer "best effort" service,
during an emergency the definition may be "best available" service.  But
in neither case will it be better than the best service the provider
offers.

The connection is set up?  What does that mean in a packet switched
network?  The probability of a packet getting through to "set up"
the connection will be similar to the packets getting through during
the "call" (instaneously changing depending on network conditions).

If there is close to 0% chance of setting up the call on a packet
switched network, then even if you do magic to set up the call, there
will be probably close to 0% chance of receiving any speech packets on
the same packet switched network (modulo the issue with gateways, proxies,
and directories using different transmission paths) so emergency works
will hear dead air.

What I've found interesting using IP telephony is its easier to
set up a call than it is to transmit and receive the speech packets.
One of the most common trouble shooting problems I have is the
phones ring, say connected, but get dead air or unintelligible
audio.  Because the call set up messages are relatively small and
are re-transmitted, even in extremely congested networks the SIP
messages seem to get through with little user visible delay.

Most of the reports I've seen on whether VOIP is ready for prime time
concern the problems with the quality of the speech path, not with getting
the call set up packets through the network.

So if I was looking at the real problems I'm seeing in the network, call
set up doesn't seem to be the problem needing to be solved.

ok. But, my question is more general. who are we to suggest a policy configuration? 
Depending on the contract, ISP provide a suitable service to an emergency responder 
(i.e. if you pay more, you get a better service.) I forsee different scenarios: 
situations where the high-priority class is the "best-available" service or just 
that ieprep works fine with the best-effort. So, I see no reason in discussing a 
policy issue (i.e. "emergency" packets are not queued ahead of others)

I like this definition of "best available" service. Ken was searching
an alternative for "better than best effort". I guess, "best available"
service will be an apt choice.

I agree with you that call set up is a non-issue. But, as per the 
quality of speech, vonage (VoIP product)users might disagree with 
you.Atlast, quality depends on the selection of codec. I presume,
you must be an INOC-DBA user and seems it works fine with its 
available codec. But, more important is change in codec and 
congetion-aware transport during emergency situations.

I'd prefer using some of the (non-ITU) codecs in iVox if I were really
in an emergency situation.  Certainly DoD reached that conclusion
some years back.  They work well in low bandwidth situations that
have non-trivial packet loss (e.g. Voice/IP/2.4 Kbps HF radio) --
and in an emergency the key thing is to be able to communicate,
rather than somewhat abstract ITU defined "quality" of the sound.

Just curious, what are the codec's which are used widely?
I remember you commenting that INOC-DBA sounds fine even
with a lousy codec.

I accept. I don't know whether people see all these mean opinion
scores ( as defined by ITU-T) in practice. we should have better
rating schemes. But, I would be interested in knowing about
practical rating methods available for quality of speech ( other 
than MOS)...

Two very minor comments.

In section 3, item 5, the first sentence says "best available" but the last
sentence says "better than best effort".  Is this intended, or is the second
one also supposed to be "best available"?

In section 5, the first sentence appears to be missing a ")" at the end.

yes, the sentence as it is written in version 3 is as intended.

*Sorry to be so late getting in on this.

Subject: [Ieprep] access and enterprise networks



At the last meeting, people expressed an interest in addressing access and
enterprise networks.  As frustrating as it might seem, if there is to be any
progress, the problem still has to be precisely defined.  

Let's consider defining the problem and it would be nice to factor in some
practical realities too.  

Here are some assumptions: 

A) ETS locations are known in advance of any emergency. When an emergency
occurs, each will already be connected to a network (unless the emergency
damaged the connection in which case that situation is out of scope).

* There are several variations on this.  While some kind of service which is
available 
*everywhere (based on some sort of authentication) would be "nice to have",
it is obviously
* impractical.  So specifying in advance the "ETS location" is an acceptable
compromise.
* But there are a couple of additional considerations.

* First, we don't necessarily want ALL traffic from the ETS location to get
"special" 
* treatment, ALL the time.  We want to be able to identify specific 
* connections/sessions/applications/packets for "special treatment" at a
specific time.  
* This is one of the considerations that keeps the total volume of "special
traffic" down.

* If the biggest bottleneck is on the connection from "Site A" to its ISP,
then giving 
* "special treatment" to ALL traffic from Site A would be counterproductive.

* If EVERYTHING is special, then NOTHING is special. 

* Second, the predefined set of "source sites" might be quite different from
the
* (predefined or not-predefined) set of "destination sites", where
source-destination makes
* sense at some levels (e.g. application) but might not at others (e.g.,
packet).

*Third, it would be nice if the definition of "predefined site" included
some provisions 
*for mobility (dial up, wireless, etc.), within the constraints of a
predefined ISP 
*relationship.


B) Generally, we aren't trying to simultaneously solve the problem for every
ETS location in the entire world at the same time.  Rather, subsets of ETS
locations are affiliated with each other and some policy decision (and
likely funding scenario) is made for that subset.  An example, say all fire
stations in particular county want to procure IP connections for their use.
Meanwhile, a city's hospitals might be under completely different policy and
funding and aren't particularly interested in paying for enhanced
communications via some fancy IP network with the fire stations.  

* If you can completely define the community of interest (e.g., all the fire
stations) 
* then a VPN of some sort is the obvious solution, and within a VPN all
sorts of 
* special treatment is possible.

* While restricting it to such a small community of interest makes the
solution easier, 
* it is not as valuable as a solution that involves SOME sort of special
treatment 
* between the communities.  For instance, in your example, I can easily see
situations
* where the fire department would want to get high priority information to a
hospital (and the hospital would want to receive that information).

So, what is it that we want to ensure?  Would ieprep like a service that
provided some minimum bandwidth guarantee (like gold service) over the
access link and that's sufficient to make everyone reasonably happy?  If
that kind of service just isn't acceptable, then please provide some text
and details about the problem you believe we need to address.

* I think a "minimum bandwidth guarantee" is probably sufficient, 
* but it may no be necessary. 
* There may be other ways of providing preferential service that are related
to the 
* offered load, and the proportion of the offered load that is "special",
rather than 
* an a priori guarantee.

* Janet

I understand your idea however I was addressing a different scenario.  The
idea is that the bottleneck is often an aggregation point from multiple
customers into the main ISP network and that Site A (ETS) would have greater
throughput at that aggregation point.
