A POTS circuit necessarily terminates on a piece of gear with a specific CLLI, generally discernable at order time.
What that gear will be, and if it's in a CO with a "real" battery plant is also known in advance. And, to tie it back on topic, the odds of a core router being in a place where its serving switch is /not/ a real CO are, I speculate, comfortably below 10%. - jra William Herrin <b...@herrin.us> wrote: >On Fri, Jan 11, 2013 at 4:43 PM, Jay Ashworth <j...@baylink.com> wrote: >> You are suggesting that it is *at all* difficult for a technically >competent >> end-user to determine whether a given new POTS line will go to a CO >or to an RSU? > >Well, let me treat this as an opportunity to learn.
