Hi All,
I just wanted to throw a question out to the list...
In our data center we feed Internet to some of our US based offices and eve=
ry now and again we receive complaints that they can't access some US based=
Internet content because they are coming from a Canadian based IP.
This has sparked an interesting discussion around a few questions....of whi=
ch I'd like to hear the lists opinions on.
- How should/can an enterprise deal with accessibility to internet=
content issues? (ie. that whole coming from a Canadian IP accessing US con=
tent)
o Side question on that - Could we simply obtain a US based IP address an=
d selectively NAT?
- Does the idea of regional Internet locations make sense? If so,=
when do they make sense? For instance, having a hub site in South America=
(ie. Brazil) and having all offices in Venezuela, Peru and Argentina route=
through a local Internet feed in Brazil.
- Does the idea of having local Internet at each site make more se=
nse? If so why?
Again, I would appreciate to hear the opinion from SP oriented minds...base=
d on what they've seen from customers...and network administrators running =
large enterprises in different companies. Off-list replies are also apprec=
iated.
Thanks!!!
...jc
