โฆ Synopsis
circuit-switched interconnect agreements in the telecoms sense. 3 This category will include residential and small business endusers(SMEs) and the large corporate end-user, all of whom will be contracting with the ISP on a retail basis. 4 This category will include the carriage service providers and the equipment vendors. 5 An IRU is effectively a long-term lease of capacity on a submarine cable, typically 15 years. In certain circumstances, the grant of an IRU can confer ownership rights in the cable itself unlike an IPLC. 6 A Router is a device, which connects two separate Local Area Networks (LANs) together using the same protocols. 7 A Firewall will use hardware but more often than not, software to protect a networked system from damage by outsiders (hackers), while maintaining connectivity. The Firewall will generally sit between the LAN of the customer and the telecommunications link to the Internet server of the ISP. 8 This service involves setting up a router and leased line to the customer's premises and management of the firewall between the customer and the Internet. 9 In the UK, the need for an ISP to have a series of PoPs is minimized through use of BT as an originating carrier and the purchase of Number Translation Services (NTS) services to route the customer's call to the relevant ISP. 10 As opposed to interconnection at a retail level which would describe the access by the corporate or dial-up customer to the ISP's modem pool.
