Re: From the ennemy's mouth: P2P no longer largest bandwidth use To confirm your worse fears read this 2 page document:
»www.ellacoya.com/products/IPServ···stem.pdf
Network definable applictaion signatures located anywhere in packet.
Can detect a P2P application operating on any port, even in HTTP on port 80.
CAN DO PER_USER AND PER APPLICATION ACCOUNTING
(aka: Bell can detect which customers of a competitive ISP use VOIP and how much they use it).
SKYPE is listed as some of the default protocols that are "managed". (whether it is given higher priority or reduced it not mentioned).
From a Bell Canada point of view, this is a dream machine.
From our point of view, it is our worse nighmare.
There are now definite privacy issues as well since Bell can collect private data on competitor's customers. |
