Bonjour la liste, Connaissez vous Hopus ? (http://www.hopus.net/faq)
Alors je débarque peut-être mais à ma grande surprise je n'ai pas souvenir d'avoir entendu parler de cette boite et du service qu'elle propose ni sur la liste FRnOG, ni nul part en fait... alors qu'il me semble que c'est un très bon sujet pour déterrer des trolls ;-) Quelques extraits de la FAQ: ------ "HOPUS promotes a business model in which anyone receiving and routing on his network traffic coming from HOPUS is getting paid. Anyone sending out traffic to HOPUS is asked to pay a fair price to have his traffic delivered. Someone sending and receiving symmetrically should have a fairly balanced status. All HOPUS members share the same rules. Access ISPs tend to receive more than they send. " What is the difference between HOPUS and a IXP? "With HOPUS, you have one agreement to validate in order to be able to reach out to all HOPUS members. An Internet eXchange Point offers a platform on which you can (and have to) make multiple traffic agreements with other participants. Besides, on a technical side, HOPUS offers the ability to provide more control over end-to-end service quality, including potential upstream ports saturation, even on long distance. It's likely that IXPs will struggle to offer such level of control and quality. " How is your price list established? "It's a fairly easy and surprisingly simple and fast process. We've simply asked operators who wanted to send traffic how much they were ready to spend for quality. We then asked operators willing to receive traffic how much they thought they should receive for this traffic and this level of quality. As the Internet market is pretty open and clean, the two matched quickly. This process will be regularly repeated in order to keep HOPUS price list valid and relevant." Who is connected right now? You can reach on HOPUS : Bouygues Telecom AS5410 Orange AS3215 Online AS12876 Celeste AS34177 Alsatis AS48072 Liazo AS50618 IELO AS29075 ------ SI je comprends bien c'est une sorte de manière de ressusciter le concept de terminaison d'appel avec un prix "régulé" entre tous les membres. Qu'en pensez-vous ? -- RD --------------------------- Liste de diffusion du FRnOG http://www.frnog.org/
