If you have a lot more, you can negotiate tiers. E.g. The first 10G is $X/Mbps, but if you hit 20G, you get charged 20000 * $Y (where Y < X, obviously). This can lead to interesting situations where 19 Gbps costs more than 20 Gbps. But dems da breaks. -- TTFN, patrick
I knew of a place that used to push "fake" traffic over a link to ensure they were in the cheaper (higher) tier. Who knew business rules overriding engineering could result in non-optimal situations. -- Brandon Galbraith US Voice: 630.492.0464
