Internet Bandwidth Growth: Dealing with Reality
Held during IETF 76

The possibility of the Internet's impending collapse due to the explosive growth in Internet bandwidth use is a recurring high-profile theme in the popular media.

However, the reality of measuring and understanding Internet bandwidth growth and its implications at macro-scales is complex. While policy debates around issues such as "network neutrality" are underway, network operators are already managing their networks to address issues raised by bandwidth-intensive applications.

This briefing session will share, in accessible terms, the realities of measuring bandwidth growth on the Internet today, as well as efforts to identify and deal with issues it raises, addressing questions such as:

* Is there anything different about bandwidth growth today that will cause problems not faced in the past?
* Are there better ways than those currently employed by network operators to manage issues raised by bandwidth-intensive applications?
* How does related work underway in the IETF factor into these issues?

On the panel

The panel will feature:
