| Re: Is this possible?? Actually, I made a correction. I meant to say where the companies cannot tap into each other's bandwidth and allocate the bandwidth so it appears as coming from separate networks.
...don't know if that will change your answer.

Will this OC-12 be point-to-point circuit between two locations? Or will it be joining existing network? | |

OC12 will be strictly an internet circuit which will be split between x amount of companies in the same building. It is cheaper if all the companies go in together instead of getting separate internet connections.

| Re: Is this possible?? this is like renting an apartment with a couple roommates. if you are the mastermind, be aware that if one of the tenants stiffs you on their rent, the carrier won't care. If someone else is the mastermind, if they take your money and don't pay the ISP bill, you are SOL.
Additionally, the mastermind will be responsible for all maintenance and repair activities on the circuit ... the ISP most likely will not be interested in speaking with any of the tenants to open trouble tickets ... so you'll need policies and procedures for reporting troubles during both business hours and off hours. | |

clubs: | As everyone has said a managed switch could do this. If you need more routing capabilities then you could do vlans and with a cisco router do zone-based firewalling and class-maps/policy-maps for the QoS stuff. | |

| Not exactly understanding why you'd want to use OC-x circuits?!? SONET (while reliable) it quite expensive.... You can pull in Metro Ethernet for about 1/3 of the price of SONET technologies... and it scales up to 1gb with the click of a mouse...
plus ME, has MUCH greater native VLAN flexibilities, especially if you want to have a hub-and-spoke configuration (meaning the building would feed into a datacenter or multiple buildings fed by one datacenter).
